"Hmm... Well, I haven't been living in peace, but I haven't heard of the war either. I've had other concerns to deal with." Melissandra replied after Seydon. Apparently he was touchy about the whole prince thing, though the glaring was a bit unnecessary... Not like she wasn't already the size of one of his fingers or anything... Pretty sure he was already reasonably big and intimidating enough, or, would be if it weren't for the multiple zaps administered earlier.<br/><br/>"You see, I think, if you have the power, you should use it." She then continued sharing her take on his situation. "You've probably always had it though, so you don't see it. But someone like me... I can't even go into town without fear of being stepped on, or chased away like some feral rodent... I mean... I WEAR CLOTHES! I hold a magic scepter! What do those morons think? Someone took the time to find and train a feral mouse to wear clothes and walk upright just to mess with them?! Someone like you, you're big enough I bet people just automatically clear the way when they see you coming, even if they don't know you're royalty, even if you weren't people could still easily see that you've got power cause, just, LOOK at you, right? You're like an elephant, or, I guess whale would be more accurate... Anyway, I have to show that I have power just to be treated like a person! And even then there's plenty of people who would still think of me as a pet or a treat. So, if you have power, but you're not using it, well, to someone like me it just seems like a real waste." She concluded, before realizing what she'd said might come off the wrong way, "A-heh... Not that you don't have your reasons, or anything... Just saying, if I were you I might try to embrace what I have and use it to my advantage, instead of distancing myself from it."<br/><br/><br/>"Anyway, it sounds like things are getting rough up there, so, we still working our way up?" She asked, anxiously wondering how they would continue with their plan.
