"The entirety of your life shall be dictated mostly by your decision, and your decision only," said Graham imposingly. "Goodbye, old farmer, you're a good man."
Assid spared a sharp glance toward the leaving Graham before he said to the old farmer, "I don't necessarily agree with his words, but if he referenced my Emperor's words that were passed on to him, then I have to."
Graham returned to the main group a few steps away before noticing the second in command furrowing and sighing.
"Now what?" Lyon shrugged his shoulder.
