So second story, oh boy. Hope you like it, My OC will be described in the bio. Let's go down another rabbit hole. By the way, I own nothing but my OC's bio, and the edits I make to the storyline till the end. No media is mine unless specified. The g...
I noticed that Mythra seemed to have gained a thousand-yard stare, clearly lost in thought or in a memory
Rex: Who are you?
Fan: I am Fan la Norne, envoy for the Indoline Praetorium.

Rex: Oh, uh... Hi.
Fan: You are Rex, am I correct? Praetor Amalthus requests an audience. Please come with me.
Rex: You're joking...right? What would the Praetor want with me?
Fan: The Praetorium manages every Blade and Driver in Alrest. And as you are the Driver of the Aegis...
Mòrag: The Praetorium wants that power for itself.
Fan: Not at all, my lady. The Praetor… would like to meet his fellow Aegis Driver. He wishes to speak to Master Rex. That is all.
Rex: His fellow? You don't mean?!
Fan: Indeed. The Praetor is Malos's Driver.
Kai: Good to know… Because if I know anything, it’s that a Blade is created to inflict the will of it’s Driver. Meaning Amalthus, despite his lack of physical control over his Blade, is not to be trusted under any circumstances.
Fan: There is another matter. I believe you currently have a certain dagger in your possession?
Rex: You know about that?!
Kai: I’m sorry? How the hell? There’s no way we’re being followed, how do they know?
Fan: Why yes, I can tell. The Praetor is its original owner, after all.
Nia: So the Praetor - he's Cole's Driver as well?
Fan: Yes...
Nia: Come off it! Just how old is he?!
Mòrag: The current Praetor is Indoline. It's not that hard to believe.
Dromarch: The Indoline do live long lives.
Rex: Oh right...? Well, that would explain why Cole said the dagger's owner… would know how to get to the World Tree!
Fan: Well, what do you say? You certainly won't regret it. An audience with Praetor Amalthus is an honor.
Rex: Ahh, hey, uhhh... W-wait a second...
Nia: I wouldn't buy it, Rex. This is too good to be true.
Rex: What do you think, Mythra? You noticed, right? As soon as we met Cole.
Mythra: Yes. Though I had no idea that man had become the Praetor, of all things.
Rex: Should we...?
Mythra: There's a lot I want to ask him. I want to know about what happened after I went to sleep. And of course... How it is that you happen to be here, Fan.
