Chương 102: Jealousy
Balyn sat in the great room cradling the tiny dragon on her lap, allowing him to sip from the vial.
"Very good my daughter," he said at last after half had been consumed. "Save the second half, I will need to drink it after I have been seen by the healer."
Balyn carefully tucked the blood behind the throne. Craftus stretched slightly, experimentally flapping a wing. He heaved a small sigh. Then he looked up at his daughters face, "you are listless, what troubles you?"
"My mother is my sister as well," she said. A bit of anger shone through her voice.
"You wished you had known that?" Craftus replied, "or perhaps you are jealous, you are my newly risen first daughter, I honour you above her, don't you fret, after all it is only you who is permitted to hold me in my state. I see you have doubts about your mother?"
"Her loyalties are stretched." Balyn muttered, "she lived with the others when I was here with you. Why did she not return with me?"
Craftus sighed slightly, "her part is small but vital to our campaign, but do not fear for your glory, have you released the monsters?"
"Of course father, they will be ready to fight with us." She said.
"Very well," he answered, "it should be easy enough to crush the resistance to our rein."
Balyn nodded.
"And you my dear one shall be at my side I trust? You are prepared to fight your cousins? Or your brother?"
"They are no family of mine," Balyn said angrily.
"Good, very well then." His eyes glittered slightly, "how long I have waited for this moment, since the day my dearest little wife betrayed me and reduced me to almost nothing. I have slept away until I had just enough energy to begin my rise again."
"You shall be unmatched father," Balyn said, "they will quiver before you and break."
"It is not quite as easy as that," he replied slowly, "once they discover the happenings they will prepare to fight us, that is why we must covert those that can be swayed."
He could tell Balyn slightly disliked this idea, for she shifted slightly.
"We shall have no council, power will only belong to the strongest, and the others may be underneath."
Balyn nodded slightly.
"Ilo should return soon with what is needed next, but until then we will have but to wait." The little dragon shifted slightly, "I have grown weary, for I have not had my body long. I will rest for a time, check our prisoner."
Balyn placed the dragon on the throne and walked to where they were keeping Amos, he was in a tall see-through cell, he still seemed quite dazed. Balyn grinned slightly, tapping her fingers across it to taunt him.
He looked up at her and then looked away.
