Prince Saros had full powers and Volkor had no legitimacy yet other than a regent emperor.
But even with the best will, nothing was simple.
Tiamat began negotiations and had hidden plans in the corner of her head, but Enka's aura and omnipresent terror made her think twice.
They were in a room that looked like a living room, and Tiamat was human with her horns but she was afraid of the prince because something was wrong.
Tiamat "So, if I understand correctly, the fleet that my lover destroyed was more of a police and ceremonial fleet than the one you have now... Yet the Repressior made short work of Tyran's ship."
Saros: "Do not underestimate our technology. We have mastered portals and temporal lenses that allow us to cross immense distances, almost instantaneously. And in the absence of his father, Arnold will have access to the best educators in the empire and we will help him develop his infinite powers."
Tiamat: "That's all well and good, but for the moment, I'm the one who educates him and sees to his safety, I also consider him my child, in any case, I play his role of aunt.. Family is sacred in our house."
Saros: "But for your safety... the Winged Lion is drawn to the death of his master Tyrant and he is coming back with great speed... You miraculously survived his golden death ray and for your survival, Arnold will have to make a contract with this divine beast."
Tiamat: "Yes, but we serve the darkness while you serve the light.."
Saros: "No offense to your deity, but Arnold, divine of Light, what fate have you reserved for him? When he has matured and begun to master his divine powers of light, do you think his Enka Divinity will stand by? Will she resist devouring him? We all know the reputation of the Destroyer and even better the Devourer... They are personalized hell... Do you think this is what your lover Hans would want? "
He set his wine glass down on the crystal table.
"Beautiful piece of art."
Kate: "My husband loved anything close to crystals."
Saros smiled. "Yes, too bad he's in one now..."
Tiamat sweated and thought back over and over when she was in the mirror.
"I was treated there" she retorted.
Saros: "Yes... this time... But don't forget that lately, ice is used a lot..."
The Hydra that was Tiamat felt the acidity in the Prince's words, bordering on sarcasm. but it was also a form of warning.
Tiamat: "I will think about your proposal but I am sure that Enka will refuse or even punish me."
Saros: "Only a contract with the Sacred Lion, his last name... Midas..." will be able to stop him and when he arrives here... everything related to Enka will be pulverized... even we could not do anything..."
Tiamat had drops of terror beading, the pain vivid..the tearing and even the antimatter and interdimensional shield being like a piece of sheet metal, having barely deflected the death ray.
"But believe in our sincerity.." He looked out the window at the Doom..
"What a magnificent Ship!!! I wonder how a group of space castaways could with a handful of humans build such marvels rivaling our biggest ships."
Meanwhile, the Vespalian fairy had arrived and was following part of the conversation
The Prince greeted the fairy with all the respect of.
