Going back meant- failure-
While going forward meant- certain death.
I wanted neither.
"What are our odds?" I asked.
"Close to zero-"
"But it's not zero- right?" Nalia crossed her arms in pride.
Except- no one really felt that way. She didn't either.
A sigh. "But this was supposed to be-" After all- I wanted to take over the world and that meant-
No-
That was just dumb.
Taking over the world was one thing-
And fighting something that nearly destroyed the world was another.
I had to pass through this mountain no matter what- and I couldn't go back at this stage.
So-
I couldn't come to the table with the intention to fight.
'I have to find a way to negotiate…'
But I didn't have anything to negotiate with.
Shit!
We should have never killed that guy!
And I should have just handed the damn ring over but-
Shit!!!
'Calm… calm down…'
