It was a threatA naked, effective threat! Lance felt like he could cry
He thought about the last twenty years of his lifeLascivious, lazy, bossy… sure he wasn’t a good guy, but he hadn’t seriously hurt anyone! Why were the Gods punishi+ng him this way?
And as this monster? Obviously he had incredible power so why bother to pretend to be anyone? It was like fate had decided to play a cruel joke on hih! Be cal about his face or mannerisms tipped off his father he was doomedAnd not just him but everyone he knewAll of a sudden Lance went fro the lives of his entire fa Master, your father – the Governor – has arrived!”

Immediately the steward scowled in irritationHe opened his h by Governor Nila the situation, bowed and made his exit
Lance’s father stepped forward“You stuck up little shi+tI don’t care how big your britches get, you stand up when I enter a roo his eyes“This isn’t Byzantium, you can’t order people around hereBut me? I live here and I can sit wherever the hell I wantWhat’s it to you, anyway? Always flapping your lips without saying anything et to the point already”
Lance’s petulant attitude practically drowned the room
“You worthless runt!” The Governor lost his temper, but that was somehow a reliefHis son was the same smart-ass, disrespectful wastrel he’d always beenMaybe his suspicions were unfoundedBut he wanted to be sure
“Never ot back to us that you defeated Jupiter Merlo! Why didn’t you ever tell your father you were this strong?”
“You think just because you’reabout y tonight am I supposed to share all the details with you, too? Really, if I did tell you what good would co shi+t I don’t want to do every dayMuch ht?”
Governor Nilam’s face was cal with a son doing soer he is the more responsibilities he carriesBesides, I’m at least partially to thankIf I hadn’t invited some of the best teachers to come and train you from six years old, would you be where you are today?”
Lance knew his father was trying to convince himIt was true that back when he was six, Byzantium invited one of the realm’s most lauded teachers to comeHowever he didn’t come to train LanceHe ca, which was hardly effective
Lance spat out a fruit pit“Bah, what’s this bullshi+t? I re me because I didn’t want to study with et that trainer forson closelyEverything was the same, from his impudent speech to his dismissive attitudeAll at once his suspicions witheredThere was no doubt this was his son

“Hey-hey! What the fuck did you think you’re doing? You better not be thinking of raising your hand at me!” Lance’s eyes widened when he saw his father step closerHe felt his heart skip a beatGet back you idiot! There’s aall of this who could kill you with his pinkie finger“I’ I’ll ret it!”
The threats did not faze Byzantium’s Governor as he stepped close and slapped his hands down on Lance’s shouldersNila Master felt the warh his clothes and into his heartHe looked into his father’s wrinkled eyes and for a moment felt eht he had was just a shell
Now he recognized how he really felt, but was it too late? He didn’t know… didn’t know if he would live er wasa fly to him
“We have our issues you and I, but you’re still youngYou don’t understand the pains of being a fatherI am a Governor also, and that means pressures and responsibilities above the norm for all of usThat’s why I always hoped all three of row to be excellent men” It was the first time Governor Nilam had ever been so candid“I am proud of you”
Lance stood still, dus, the Governor turned and walked toward the exit“Steward, let’s go see the Elder”
