[IC] The ultimate goblin king-beware his powers

[Shadow Dragon]

"Then shake my hand to seal the deal." He doesn't even look at her brothers.

[Sharidi37495]

Cesidia crosses her arms. “You’ll grant a wish if I do this? This isn’t a trick?”

[Shadow Dragon]

"We will both be bound by the Deal until the conditions are met."

[Vampiretwilight]

Petunia gasped. A tear ran down her cheek. She glared daggers as her hands tightened on the horses reigns.
"Then, Celsidia, as princess, you give me no choice. You are no longer a part of my court. You are on your own, as by law you are now considered a traitor."
It was clear her heart weighed heavily as she said that, as the nobles that gathered all nodded. The princess clearly did not wish to dish out punishment, but she had no other choice.

[Sharidi37495]

Cesidia sighs and extends her hand. “It’s a deal.”

[Shadow Dragon]

He takes her hand, the flames in his hand coating her arm with painless red fire, and a invisible tether forms between her soul and the core of his body. "What is your command?"

[Sharidi37495]

Cesidia looks toward Petunia. “Say no to the goblin king. Wage war with him, and we’ll win. I’ll make sure of that.” She turns to the demon. “Ensure that we win against the goblins.”

[Vampiretwilight]

The princess took a breath. Her voice was loud.
"Exiled."
She began sobbing hard after that, clearly hurt. The princess shook her head. A noble cut her off.
"by law she can no longer accept your suggestions or recommendations."-the noble, a man, said.

[Sharidi37495]

Cesidia lifts her chin slightly. “Do not cry, Princess. I simply did what I could, and if that names me a criminal, a traitor, so be it, but I won’t allow it to bring you pain.”

[Vampiretwilight]

The princess glared at that.
"YOU have brought me pain with your actions."
She turned to leave. The nobles would try to keep cesidia from following her.

[Shadow Dragon]

He smiles savagely. "Agreed." He walks deeper into the courtyard, and flaps his large wings, drawing a flaming pentagram in the air in front of him.

[Sharidi37495]

Cesidia bites her lip and turns to leave. “I’m sorry, Princess. I’ll miss you.”

[Vampiretwilight]

The princess was sobbing. She didn't look back. She couldn't bring herself to. It was more than the kingdom that was betrayed, she thought, it was HER that was betrayed.

[Sharidi37495]

Cesidia doesn’t wipe the tears streaming down her cheeks, and she walks off after she hugs her tearful brothers.

[Shadow Dragon]

He clenches his fist, and a faint, flaming aura forms around Cesidia, another around Petunia. "I have given you both hellfire shields, the first of my protections. It will burn anyone who attempts to do you harm."

[Sharidi37495]

Cesidia pauses and turns back to the demon. “Why do you protect me? Because you want my soul? The pleasure of killing me, perhaps?”

[Shadow Dragon]

He laughs. "I need you alive for as long as possible. I have many plans, and this is but a small part in one."

[Sharidi37495]

Cesidia frowns angrily. “I shouldn’t have trusted you.”

[Shadow Dragon]

He laughs again, with a dark cackle. "I am the one thing you can trust. You told me to ensure that you win. I gave you both protection from the goblins. Or any physical harm. I need to save my power for the fight itself."

[Vampiretwilight]

The princess gasped. She stopped. She finally looked back.
"I do not want it! I did not ask for your help! She is no longer a part of my court!"
