The King's Command
Your mind wanders inside the prison cell to the words you first heard about Lady Myrr. She’s a devil. Her actions ruined your life. Her mad infatuation with you would only mean further manipulation. If she were willing to maneuver you to execute a childhood friend, there is no telling how far she would go to keep you under her spell. With an anguishing cry, you thrust your blade forward. It tears through her upper thigh and lodges deep within the wooden floor.
“I… can’t,” you utter, shaking with the realization. The sword drops from your hand.
Lady Myrr rises from the floor, “I know. We are destined for one another. Our fates are now intertwined. Killing me would be as if killing yourself.”
She picks up your fallen sword and places the hilt within your hand. Her fingers traverse the flat of the blade, staining them red. Then she lightly touches your face marking it with streaks of her blood.
“You and I will rule together.”
Her hand glides to your chest.
“You will have everything you ever want.”
Her hand drops lower.
“That which is not freely offered, you take by force.”
Her hand reaches the intended area causing a slight gasp to escape your lips.
“Are you with me, King of Miranna?”
Lost in madness and overtaken by the moment, you answer her with with a grunt, grabbing her forcefully and throwing her back to the floor. Only this time, you join her. Covered in blood, surrounded by the freshly slain bodies of Kano’s crew, you consummate your commitment to Myrr.
