Chelia: "F-Father?"

Lyon: "That's correct. You've really grown since I last saw you"

Chelia's mind was soon consumed by rage and confusion.

Chelia: "Why the hell did you leave?"

Lyon: "That's no way to talk to—"

Chelia: "I CAN TALK HOWEVER I WANT!! This is my kingdom and I could have you killed with a thought!!"

Lyon: "As I expected, you have not learned about the customs of meeting royalty from other kingdoms"

Chelia: "Shut the hell up and answer the question!"

Lyon: "Fine, you're so quick to anger... you get that from your mother"

Lyon cleared his throat.

Lyon: "Your mother has kept secrets from you. Including that our kingdom was split in two on the day you were born"

Chelia's mind was racing. The kingdom was big enough as it is, but knowing it was split in two surprised her.

Chelia: "What do you mean? Why?"

Lyon: "Slave revolt. The slaves outnumber the average commoner 3 to 1. They weren't happy with how they were being treated. So in order to solve it, the kingdom split in two. The two kingdoms had different rules of how the slaves would be treated. Then we divided them up, making slave revolts more difficult to be successful"

Chelia: "And... you had to go to the other half to rule over it"

Lyon: "Correct"

Chelia: "S-So... t-that means..."

Lyon: "Correct, I'm the rightful ruler of the two kingdoms"

Chelia shook her head to get her mind clear.

Chelia: "No, you only rule that kingdom. Since mother died, I inherited this kingdom"

"Since mother died". Those three words echoed in Chelia's mind. Rage flowed into her head again.

Chelia: "Why did you kill mother?!"

Lyon: "What are you talking about?"

Chelia stood up.

Chelia: "Mother was killed in your throne room!"

Lyon grew a slight grin.

Lyon: "Though it is true she died in my throne room, I'm not the one who killed her"

Chelia: "Then who did?!"

The doors to the throne room opened and someone started walking inside. Chelia then saw it was Romeo, in all black armor. Chelia started freaking out a little.

Chelia: "W-What are you saying?!"

Lyon: "Romeo killed your mother"

Romeo: "On the King's orders, of course"

Black wind started surrounding Chelia.

Chelia: "You bastard!!"

Lyon: "Calm down. We only had her killed because she attempted to kill me first"

Chelia: "I don't care!!"

Chelia thrusted her hand out and shot a blast of black wind at Lyon. Romeo stepped in front of Lyon and created a wall of dark purple fire. The wind collided with the fire wall and somewhat exploded on impact. Chelia realized she wouldn't be able to beat them by herself.

Chelia: "Guards!"

No one came inside.

Chelia: "Guards!!"
