Phobos: "Good morning, little sister. I was starting to think you'd never wake up."

"Hm.." Elyon stood up and held her head for a moment. Not waking up didn't even sound half-bad after last night...
"I've been... wai...-...ting for you..." she said, quickly followed by a short yawn. Somehow, it sounded better in her mind, but since she still wasn't fully sharp and awake yet, it came out the wrong way...

Phobos: "That's odd... I could've sworn I've been here the entire time. I saw the door open. I saw you walk in. I even saw you sit on top of me & fall asleep. Is your bed not soft enough for The Light of Meridian?"

"Have you?" she asked. "Then why didn't you say anything? I had something important to ask you..."

Phobos: "It seemed as if you were sleep walking. I had no desire to disturb your beauty sleep. But you're awake now." *big smile* "What was it you wanted to ask me?"

"I..." Elyon's eyes fell shut again, but she quickly opened them up and shook her head. "J... Just a moment... I'm thinking of how I phrased it..."

Amused, the dark prince patiently waits for her to finish.

Elyon took a moment to snap out of her drowsiness, inhaled once, and then asked her question in the business-meaning tone she had intended from the start. "I want to learn how to fight, Phobos! I want to learn how to control my powers! And most importantly..." the princess looked her brother directly into his eyes, her eyebrows lowering to back up her statement. "... I want you to leave my friends to me!"

For some odd reason, her question seems more like a list of demands than anything else but Phobos humors her & does his best to answer the question.
Phobos: "By all means, learn to use your powers to your heart's content. I'd rather not have a repeat of yesterday's incident." *pauses for dramatic effect* "And I hope you didn't just call those elemental assassins your friends. Cause if you did, I'll have to ask Lord Cedric to teach you the meaning of friendship & any other words that you fail to understand."

"Y-You're right... I'm sorry..." Elyon replied, realising just what she reffered to Cornelia and the other guardians as... They're not her friends... They never were... They're just a bunch of liars. All of them.
"But I'm serious about this, Phobos!" she continued, feeling that the prince might not be taking these requests seriously. "I want to handle them. I want to return them everything they did to me, tenfold!" She too chose to pause for a brief moment... "You'll let me take care of them... Won't you?"

Phobos: "Dear dear, Ellie." *places a hand upon her cheek* "Think about what you are asking. You don't even know how to control your powers. And yet, you seek to handle the demons... Alone?"

"Yes. I do." Elyon replied, turning her head away, as to make Phobos lose the physical contact. Despite everything, he kept belittling her, and clearly she didn't like it. "I know them better than anyone else here, Phobos!" the princess explained. "I know everything important about them! I know what will distract them most! I even know how they think of each other, and why! Besides, you've got a country to rule and a rebellion to keep in check. You've got enough on your mind as it is!" She didn't look at her brother. Surely, he was going to say something belittling again, or trying to prove her wrong in one way or another... Elyon wished Cedric was here...

Phobos: "I'm sorry, Ellie. You are young & inexperienced. Until you learn to control your powers, I can't..." [Kami & Sniffer: Enter from Some Alley] They come & kneel to the left of Elyon. Phobos: "So... How did it go?" Kami: "I..." *bows his head* "I failed, my Lord." Phobos: "Why you worthless abomination!" He places his right hand on the guard's head & begins draining him of his life force.

Elyon backed away as she witnessed the horrifying degeneration process of the guard. What was Phobos thinking!? What was he even doing in the first place!? The creature's face dried up and wrinkled in seconds. It's arms and legs practically deflated, and before she could even guess what kind of creature it was, the princess saw how it shrunk into it's robes until nothing of it remained... Except off course, it's original and most primitive form... A flower...
The prince could see how his sister's innitial horror faded upon realisation just what the guard really was... His eyes and ears. A mindless servant. A bit of vegetation...
Elyon looked at her brother with an icy cold gaze, saying nothing for a moment, before asking that one question... "What did he fail at?"

Phobos: "I sent him to find Jarod, so he could be properly punished for ruining your ball. But apparently..." *looks at the flower* "I'll have to send someone else."
