Rhianneth
As the booming voice droned on, revealing the identity of the vile creature, she felt her pulse growing less erratic. In fact, a gentle gurgling began, tickling her, until she finally burst out laughing. Not a pleasant laugh, but a derisive, incredulous one.
"So... you think that I wish to be his heir?"
A rhetorical question, it was. If the glint in her eye had been a weapon, it would have pierced through Terrakis' torso ~ "And pray, just what does being his heir bring me, that I do not already enjoy?"
Calm yourself down, woman... you are not quite out of danger yet, even if you are not a direct threat to them... ~ She inhaled deeply, considering her next words carefully before speaking them.
"No... I am not contesting you for the prize you crave, for I see that you will have enough trouble amongst yourselves, as to who is the one true ruler. Will it be yourself, or some other brother of yours?"
Another rhetorical question. How fond she was of them, especially when they could stir a little activity among seemingly cohesive groups!
"Anyway, I came because I seek the truth. Is Larry truly dead then?"
