He laughed. A hatchling, trying to talk to him about matters such as this. "As if I would tell a someone. Even if I were. Anyone could be a spy."
Dissension rolled her eyes, "Do you even know why I'm in this lair? It's to teach me tolerance. I came from a water clan. The same water clan you came from. And I think that water dragons are better than any other type of dragon."
"Oh, no, I don't think water dragons are better, I just think that I should be the king here. I am named Monarch after all."
"Well, I can help you take over."
"Oh?"
"Yes. Were you even going to leave this clan with the element of fire?"
"I was planning on it. I'm a water dragon, but I have--"
"What a wimp...."
"A wimp?"
"Yes. Take over this clan, and turn it to water. Don't be a..."steamlet" like Rusty said. I've heard people talking about her. I think she went back to her home clan because she knew I was coming...and she was scared. As well she should be. Quench fire, Monarch. Make it die. And then, make me a princess."
"SeaKing wanted to be a prince as well. And who do you suggest should be queen?"
"When you die, SeaKing and I will be taking over."
Monarch felt a twinge of fear, but brushed it aside. A hatchling couldn't kill him.
"And I should have no queen?"
Dissension shrugged, "I suppose if you find one. Just remember...SeaKing and I shall be your heirs."
"And your sister?"
Dissension paused. "She's weak. She loves. She is...well, what her name is. "Peace". What use is peace in a time of war like this? She will be a common citizen. I will be a princess. So...when will you take over? I'm here. Aren't I what you've been waiting for?"
Monarch appraised her once more, then walked away.
She sat and smiled watching the strong skydancer walking away. She knew her time would come. Dissension would rain.
