"We're gonna be killed for listening to this!" I whisper shouted, but Greigh very firmly gestured for me to be quiet. "He's the King!" He quickly covered my mouth again as we continued to listen.
"..." There was a pause in the conversation.
"Do you know she looked for you?"
"Did she?"
The old Dragon turned quiet for a moment before continuing. "Many of us did. Some of us sacrificed more than you know trying to find you."
Arthur sighed. "I'm sorry, but I can't give you what you seek."
A crashing sound, along with a few things breaking, suddenly erupted from inside. "You were known for being the greatest warrior this world had ever seen! The greatest leader this world had ever seen!" Dryritt roared. "How can you turn your back on all of that!?"
"I'm not. I'm here, aren't I?" Arthur shot back. "A seat of power is a means to an end. A title such as a 'Knight' is also a means to an end. Even if I were to give it up now, my roots run throughout most of the merchant chains in Lestrania. Several businesses in Lestrania entered into a partnership with me. Some beyond Helmsforth as well."
"To what end?" The Dragon asked. "What could you possibly want? Gold? Silver? The Dragons could provide you with more gold than you've ever seen."
"It's not about gold or silver. My name means something now."
Dryritt quickly cut in. "Your name meant something before."
Our General sighed. "Yes, but now, in this day and age, I've acquired the same status as before. Wealth, influence, and my reputation is positive in the public eye. Most who don't like me are nobles or royalty." Arthur explained. "All this amounts to power. Could I just force everyone to follow me again? Yes." He admitted. "It would be simple enough, but the results would likely be different this time."
The Dragon grumbled. "The Elves aren't fresh from the war against Dragons, Lestrania isn't officially at war with the Demons, and the Lestranian Alliance has been solidified for several millennia now."
"Exactly." Arthur agreed. "Even if I were to lose my title as a Knight of Lestrania, it doesn't matter. I already have everything I need." The General sounded tired. "The only thing that concerns me is the morale and training of the soldiers in this day and age. Town's Guard is what they call them. What a disgusting title."
"What will you do?"
"I have a few plans in the works. One is to hopefully rebuild an alliance of sorts among different nations. Perhaps to rekindle old kinships." Arthur probed.
