Arthur's expression remained unyielding as he spoke, his cold gaze fixed firmly on the women before him.

"With everything I have said, I am more than willing to protect those who will remain loyal to me, that is a promise even I dare not break," he declared.

As he slowly sat up, his hand extended to the front, palm spread open, creating a commanding presence in front of the women who had their eyes on his every move.

"If you wish to not follow the path I have laid out before you, I won't be cruel as to slay you. Instead, I will grant you the chance to find a life elsewhere, one devoid of my blessing, gift and authority… this choice is yours to make, so I ask you, What is your decision?" His words echoed in the ears of the women.

They all stood frozen, looking at each other, the tension building up with each passing moment as they thought hard and well on everything Arthur had said up until the point he asked the question.
