“Still, Dragon, I did not break the Seal.” Lucian declared as he pointed at it, “I did so because I believe we can come to an understanding without going to such measures.”
The Dragon glared at Lucian, but it knew what the Knight was suggesting. That Lucian was giving him the benefit of a doubt for the future of his realm.
“So what will it take Dragon? If you are unwilling to work with me to kill Mortifax then surely you can put a price to prevent his release.” Lucian pressed with a roar.
The Dragon was silent for a moment, perhaps trying to figure out what he wanted to say. Lucian was more than willing to give him all the time he had, for in the grand scheme of things they had enough time. He could not filibuster his way out of this situation.
Worse came to worse, if he was taking too long, Lucian would simply break the seal and get it over with. That was one way to break a Man’s indecision, and it would be no different for a Dragon.
<span class="mu-s">“Service begets service.”</span> Declared the Dragon with a low rumble, <span class="mu-s">“I have spent a great many years of my life protecting this site and in doing so have lost them to this vigil. You, as you are immortal as I am, shall take three decades of service protecting this site.” </span>
Duty for duty, blood for blood. Yet it was more in the favor of the Dragon he knew his worth.
Yet Lucian could go around him, strike the Seal, and force the fight anyways. Perhaps by putting down the Drake the Dragon would owe him a life-debt instead of Lucian becoming an indentured servant.
Or, perhaps, Lucian could simply try to take Mortifax instead. A proposition that would be impossible for any man, except that Lucian had the Marrow of Morr as a piece of his flesh.
