Successor

*The dwarf warrior introduces himself, puffing out his chest proudly* Dwarf: I'm Brok Ironfist, Your Majesty, son of Durin! *He gestures to his companions, pointing them out one by one* That's Thorin Oakenshield, and that's Fili and Kili, sons of Fundin. We're at your service, Your Majesty!

Hello everyone

*Everyone turns to look at you, and they all go silent. They seem surprised to see you back here*

Now you might all be wondering where I've been

*You can't hear what Angelina is saying, but you see Victoria's face turn pale and she looks like she's about to cry*

*Victoria glares at you, and you see her mouth the words 'I'll get you back for this'*

Victoria: you think you can just slap me? *She was enraged and lunged at Corbin, trying to scratch his face with her nails*

*Victoria and Corbin stop fighting and glare at you* Victoria: who do you think you are to tell us what to do? *Corbin glares at you, not saying a word but his expression tells you everything you need to know*

*Corbin winces in pain as you clean his wound, but he doesn't say anything*

*Corbin grabs your hand and squeezes it tightly, trying to stay calm*

*Corbin nods, his breathing still a little shaky* Corbin: yeah, much better. Thanks for helping me.

Beatrice: it's just that everyone seems so angry and upset, and I'm not sure how to handle it. I feel like I'm just standing in the middle of a storm, and I don't know how to get out of it.

*Beatrice smiles and hugs you back, feeling comforted by your words* Beatrice: thank you, I really needed to hear that. I know it's not easy being a princess, but I'm glad I have you to lean on.

Beatrice: I know, and I appreciate that. But I don't want to be a burden to you. I want to be strong and independent too.

*The shadow bodyguards bow again, and then they disappear back into the shadows. Beatrice looks up at you, a little bit nervous* Beatrice: I'm glad they're here, but I'm also a little scared. I hope they'll be able to protect us.

*You see Victoria, who's now crying and is being consoled by her mother. She glares at Corbin, and he's just staring at her with a smirk on his face. Angelina is still trying to break up the fight, but she seems to be failing. She turns to you* Angelina: Mathys, can you please come over here?

m'avez vous demandé cher sœur?

*Angelina looks at you with a pleading look* Angelina: I'm sorry to ask you this, but I need you to calm Victoria down. She's very upset, and I don't think Corbin's going to listen to me.
