Wincing slightly at how close his words hit. I was afraid. Odd to actually admit it for the first time.The magical creatures needed change and being so blatantly obvious would only make it worse. There was no illusion of the possibility of dying anytime soon. There was a massive target on my back. From all sides. Whether to poach me for power or to remove a powerful threat. Taking up my crown and reigniting Avalon would only make that worse.
