As much as I felt the touch of his nose to me, it seems almost numb by the thought of Thorne taking over and getting that much power. This means so much trouble. I am now here, and he will see me being here as threat. He really needs to not find out that I am living here. I find myself breathing in sharply. Arturio seems to understand how bad this is with with words.
”No, there is no good in him. Sometimes, I can somewhat...control him. He will sorta of listen to me, but it is not enough...not enough,” I say sighing heavily. I know it is not enough, and it will never be enough. The bond did not give me complete command over him. It certainly helped though.
He then mentions that he smelled Aster’s scent but not the whole family. I knew of Aster and that she had a family but that is about it. I never got to see them, but I know Undyne did. She would know best. I pulled back now.
”Undyne, my sister, she must have gone there with Lazarus…” she said, looking away now towards where Iromar would be visually. ”I wonder if she will come back here. She lived here under Aster but I noticed she was gone once you came to rule here. She will know what is going on...she must come back here,” I contemplate, wondering where else she would go. I am not sure where Lazarus would go, and thus not sure where my sister would go. I hope that she decides to come here.
”Undyne already survived one uprising and lost her eye because of it. I know she can survive another,” I said as I turned my head back. Arturio thinks sequestering Thorne there will be enough, at least for now, and I shake my head slowly looking at my paws.
”No...no...he will cause havok everywhere. I just...I just know it,” I say with my voice shaking slightly. I always had such a weird feeling around Thorne. Knowing that he has taken Iromar only puts those feelings into perspective. He will cause chaos, especially if he has a whole pack at his will. It is just a sense I get from our prior interactions.
”What is your plan for you? I...I am not sure if I can be your Lancelot like I had hoped. I...I cannot let him know I am here,” I say, lowing my muzzle slightly with a frown. Being a diplomat would mean I would need to go out and about...and that is the last thing I can do. ”If I step foot out of this pack, he will find me, and he will….he will,” I say keep my green eyes diverted, not wanting to say what I know would be true.
