"Maybe I am crazy, but that's what I will do—become the Emperor," Atrox said. He didn't say the reason he wanted to be the Emperor was to have everyone under him. He wanted to be the sky so the rain wouldn't fall on him.
He thought about it and looked at the three people in front of him. 'I need people I'll be able to use... to work for me. People who are to be trusted to an extent. And they've been with me, however briefly, when I didn't have power. Of course, they have their own motives, but that only makes it better'
'People who want are people that can be controlled'
Now that I'm at the starting point, that's when I should look for people who will walk with me... hmm... wait... when did I start thinking like some lord? I guess all the training they gave me in the Clan is still with me. And, I'm still some lord. Father didn't officially remove me...'
