“The royal family’s stance will determine mine. If they wish for peaceful coexistence, we'll stay vigilant on the borders. But if theyinsist on being oppressive, we'll have to rise,” Dustin said unabashedly.
“Agreed!” Scarlet pledged her unconditional support. “Whatever you decide, Logan, I’m with you!”“And me too,” Abigail chimed in. “Sir, if the King dares to harm you, I'll help you poison him!”“Buddy, you really know how to give me a headache!” Adam shook his head, somewhat resigned.
He continued, “Well, | guess I'll just sacrifice myself for a noble cause. Let’s hope the King doesn’t act foolishly. Otherwise,Dragonmarsh might change hands sooner than expected.”
