"Are you suggesting I darken my heart?" I ask.
"I'm telling you to toughen up. You're too soft with all due respect my lord." He says.
"Am I weak?" I ask.
"Do you not kill one who has deserved it?" He asks.
"Yes." I say.
"You don't use dark magic?" He asks.
"I... did." I say.
"Then you're weak." He says.
"Wait, what? Why?" I ask.
"If you do not kill, you turn your back and then they will kill you." He says.
"I... suppose." I turn.
"Your heart is too soft." He turns to me.
"But... I don't want to kill." I say.
He lifts my head up.
"Then you will surely die." He says.
I push off of him. I take another step. I hear a roar. I turn. A pantherdog charges. I dodge.
"My lord." Lucifer walks forward.
"We must've gotten too close to its territory." I say.
Lucifer moves his hand. The pantherdog goes flying. It roars and charges again. I draw a rune, and I blast frozen mist at it. It hits. I let out a breath. We should go. It breaks out. It charges at me. Before I could react, it hits me. I slam into a tree. My staff was ripped from my hand. It charges. Something stabs the pantherdog with... his tail? It looks sharp. I draw back. The pantherdog falls dead.
"Are you alright my lord?" He gives me his hand.
"Fine." I hiss.
I take it.
"You see? It's kill or be killed." He says.
