"Woah! Calm down on the accusations there. I did not bother asking or stopping you from doing what you wanted because I knew it would be futile in the long run. I did not want to waste my effort needlessly."

Lea huffed, pretending to be offended by what these people had said to her. Her lack of hesitation caused the Siren king to be convinced that Lea had nothing to do with the rift.
At least, not voluntarily. She was being roped into this mess, just like the Sirens were. That caused a feeling of comradeship to form inside the Siren king's heart.
"I understand. I guess we are very similar in that case. Thank you for agreeing to help me out. We do not have a lot of time left out here. So please, lead me to the centre of the Siren stronghold, and I will take over from there. My queen, please lend me your strength for one time."
