"Excuse me," [b]A voice says at the door.[/b] "But that's my sword you're waving around."

Wait, what? *Cyan turns to the voice* You can't be... *Cyan holds the sword in a defensive position*
-
"Hmm? I can't be who?"
-
*Cyan hesitates a little* King Arthur...
-
"Yes, I am Arthur. However.... My kingdom has long since perished. I am no longer King." [b]The sword seems to float away from Cyan's hands, landing in Arthur's. When the sword touches Arthur's hands, a massive aura of power seems to radiate from him.[/b]
-
*Cyan forms her icy blue dagger* That little trick you did convinced me a little, but how can I know you're really him?
-
[b]Arthur smiles, and raises Excalibur.[/b] "Is it a duel you wish for, to test my claim as Arthur?"
-
I could have a dual with anybody, a dual won't really prove anything unless you're proving you're a famous Mexican wrestler.
-
[b]Arthur chuckles slightly.[/b] "Well, you tell me. What do you wish for me to do?"
-
*Cyan sighs a little* I don't know... What happened to your kingdom?
-
[b]Arthur's smile fades away completely.[/b] "We went to war, my older brother the commander of the other half of my army. We wiped each-other out completely. And why would I be telling you this?"
-
I'm asking because I'm curious as to why you no longer considering yourself king. And you answered. And I appreciate that. *Cyan lowers her knife, which dissipates in her hand*
-
"Well, then, now you know." [b]He seems to lose himself in memories.[/b]
-
*Cyan walks up a little closer* Are you okay? I'm sorry for asking.
-
[b]He startles.[/b] "Oh, I apologize. I seem to be doing that a lot, lately... anyways, I best be off. Thank you again, for returning my sword to me. I hated seeing that... vermin... running around, acting as though it was his."
-
You're welcome. Wait, how did he get it anyway?
-
"After I died, my sword was passed down to my son. And over and over again. So yes, this vermin is my descendant." [b]He looks at Ephiateus with disgust.[/b] "I hate seeing what my bloodline has become."
-
*Cyan looks at him as well* Yeah, that must be awful. In my family, it's the other way around. My father was awful, he usurped the previous ruler of the Underworld and started one of the darkest ages.
-
"Hmm. That sounds... interesting."
-
you could say that... Either way, he's gonna be killed soon, he's holding my brother's soul pretty much hostage. And soon I'm gonna need help with it...
-
[b]Arthur looks up.[/b] "I'll be happy to help in any way I can."
-
Thank you. I am trying to rally up people now, I'll contact you when I need you.

[b]Arthur nods, and disappears, leaving golden dust lying on the floor where he stood.[/b] [spoiler]Fin?[/spoiler]
-
[spoiler]Sure. Not bad.[/spoiler]
