?And if you do not, then you shall die,? cold truth would weave from blossomed lips, gazing upon her with a threatening wisdom; he believed her words, and yet he knew she still didn?t wholly understand them herself. Though she believed she knew what it was rise from the ashes of the fallen, there was nothing that could prepare her for the realities, for when it truly came to her. ?This is the real world, my darling; we are here to flourish, we do not need our lips to be swollen with the lies of a pleased grin. It does not save us from the demons that loiter every curve of earth?s surfaces, it is a determination and a lust for success that will save us. If you wish to keep others alive then they must realise survival comes before mindless joy, no matter how much they believe they want a caressing touch of adore, it is not such a hand that will prosper them; it will weaken them, shred their skin, splinter their skeleton.?

Piercing gaze refused to leave her, the warmth (however deceiving it may be) that previously loitered his windows now wavered with an uncertain chill. Otherwordly desires became apparent upon his gaze, and the hairs upon his spine would bristle with the sensations of their conversation. ?I have seen so many leaders slaughter their people with kindness, it is only those that believe in rainbows and happy endings that will fall. Nature does not love us; our entire life is a battle, whether it be with the thrashing of violent weather or the piercing of our enemies blades. Peace is found only in death,? he was aware that she wore a brittle innocence upon her spine, with a false pride that she was everything a leader needed to be. She was not. But she could be, ?And that is why I do not wish death upon my enemies.? A lifetime of agony.

He would trail for a moment, taking a breather; sure that he will do all in his power to swell her brain with the knowledge of his own. He was her father, and though his love for her stretched far beyond the eye could see, he was still capable of hating her choices, her actions. She would get one chance to prove she could satisfy him. For now, he challenged her only intellectually, but soon? he would demand her physical strength, force her body to extremities it had never been before. Now, she was his project. ?You?re a leader, and your people bare pups; helpless, blind babes who are no less than the future of your superiority; a man, alone but physically fit, strays your borders. He?s not yet aware of you, so what does a queen do?? oh how he dared her to answer correctly, though he didn?t expect it, soon she would understand.
