Dad!
Uh oh.
*puts sword away*
I
thought I saw my sword missing. Rhys, you are in big trouble.
What did I
do?
You
came here. This place is too dangerous for you!
C'mon dad.
You were younger than me when you were fighting tougher monsters.
I was
also trained more highly than you.
Well maybe
if you didn't sit on your butt all day and do something with me
I'd have better training!
*eyes bug out*
*gets
closer to Rhys* You wanna say that to me one more time boy?
*silent, but
then loud* YES! GET UP OFF YOUR BUTT AND TRAIN ME!
*taken
back* ... no.
Why not?
I
promised your mother that I wouldn't train you. She didn't want
the same life for you that I had.
*looks at
Orakio* I didn't believe it.
*to
Angela* Stay out of this!
Daddy said
that you had grown weak, but I didn't believe that the mighty
Orakio could ever lose his touch.
*silent*
You're
just a shell of the man you once were.
*hangs
head* *sighs and walks off*
Dad?
*ignores
her and continues toward Mt. Katahdin*
Looks like
he's not going to train you, Rhys.
Fine then.
*yells loudly* I don't need you!
What are you
going to do?
I'm going to
do what I should have done. I'm going to Lorath to join up with
the Knights. They will train me.
*loudly*
Dammit!
What?
I was going
to Lorath to see Stare.
That is
how we ran into you.
*to Angela*
That was pretty harsh of you.
I know,
but uncle Orakio is not the same man he was. He blames himself
for not protecting aunt Leene from the illness. He hasn't been
the same since. Daddy says that he's lost his power.
Daddy?
Her father
is Rulakir.
THE Rulakir?
Brother to the hero Orakio? *pauses* wait a second... That was
THE Orakio?
I thought I
told you.
Well,
yeah... but I never thought to put two and two together.
*thud*
