"The answer to that question will come in due time. At the moment I am in need of assistance and you are perfect for that role. In a week's time I will come for you."
"Why should I go with you."
"Well it was an agreement between the king and I. Besides do you really want to stay here where you are looked down upon, where you are sneered at and devalued," I held out my hand to you.

"I have need of you," I said in a soft tone, "what say you, what do you want to do?"

"It is a deal, I'll take you away from here. Wait patiently," I said before disappearing in a cloud of smoke.
