"I Care!"he shouted angrily.
"And you are wrong. A man in your position would be completely useless.
He would plot and try to destroy my plans to better himself to a point that no one can reach.

"With you and all of your armies, you could kill me. And in answer to your question, many Dragons, most of which are dead. Except for one."

"If I keep speaking you might have a reason. And if that is the way you are taking this then I am glad....but, I fear that you'll not thank me when the war comes."
