Lucia's Point of View
Pendragon Estate
"Aid?" I repeated.
Marina quickly answered. "Our father wants to know how powerful we are."
Breeze quickly took back over. "Individually, each of us is quite powerful. During our days as sentries, we were guided into using our powers." I assumed that was done by Aydan Farro. "I'd wager we are powerful enough to stand against both Priestesses alone. Together..."
"Your powers and abilities intertwine to complement each other." Arthur finished for him.
"Correct, but likely not in the way you are thinking. The three of us have spent our lives together without separation. We know each other's abilities and thought processes better than we know ourselves."
Arthur scratched his scruff in thought. "So, how would you compare to me?" The source of this content is N0veII_bIn
The three guardians looked at one another. "Realistically speaking, none of us could stand against you. Even the three of us together would likely find it difficult, but I also think we might surprise you. Could we defeat you?" Marina asked, but quickly shook her head and answered her own question. "No. Could we present a challenge? I believe so."
"What was that?" Arthur asked as his eyes narrowed.
"Nothing!" She said sweetly.
"Uh huh." He replied, unconvinced. "Lucia, stop pressing them for more." Then he turned to me. "And another thing, stop pressing me for more information."
"I just want to know what's going on! You can't just say, I'm your father; these are technically your siblings, stay out in the hall!" I then gestured to myself. "Can I not be included? Does my presence really concern you?"
Arthur stood and walked over to me before he put his hands on my shoulders gently. "Listen, it's not that I don't want you here, but you're not a fighter. There's things I don't want you a part of, and there's definitely things I don't want you to know about me." He then gestured to the others with a simple nod of the head. "They just so happened to get implanted with some of my memories when they were created, which is also concerning." His shoulders deflated as he sighed out his nose in a tired manner. "Please don't ever assume I don't want you here." Then he gave my shoulders a squeeze. "And everything about this is a concern to me." He said playfully.
Smirking at that, I quickly shot back. "Oh? What's at the top of your concerns about me?"
"That boy toy of yours, for one."
"Ugh. I told you to stop calling him that!" Stepping back, he just shrugged.
"I just think you could do better."
Marina then added, "Realistically speaking, Alwin is likely one of the top bachelors that would be best matched to Lucia."
Arthur rolled his eyes. "Don't listen to her. She grew up in a forest." He was then struck in the back of the head by a block of ice.
"A lake, actually." She quickly corrected.
