Healing from darkness

Political limit

Rackgul wakes up to only Artemis by his side. Finally awake, the others are not here because they’re out helping the village Artemis says. Rackgul looks disappointed in himself and grabs his head. What’s a matter, sleepy Artemis asks a little flirtatious. I was weak today, I was going to hurt the little girl before you stopped me Rackgul says with self loathing. Don’t blame yourself, i think you’re strong if something could take control over you it must’ve been immensely difficult Artemis tries to comfort Rackgul. Why are you still here, i thought you were going back to your home the demon asks the centaur coldly. Um.. I just wanted to help your group with your new village and I have a proposition for you Artemis says. What proposition are you offering the demon asks. Since you’re a new political figure you can be my plus one to a royal meeting Artemis states. Wouldn’t the skeleton be a better option for something like this Rackgul asks Artemis. He would but it’s not like the other people there will let you talk because of their prejudice, I asked Lillith since she is humanoid but she was unwilling Artemis says giving her reasoning. Why do you want one of us to go to this meeting anyways, if we can’t get a point across Rackgul asks confused. You can see how the political world works and I just want to spend time together Artemis asks hopeful. Fine, let’s hope I don’t regret it Rackgul says telling himself.

Artemis and Rackgul both enter a blue and black house, they both enter the main room. They see a chair spread around a round table headed by a gold tall chair, all the chairs have nameplates. The demon and the centaur sit down next to each other, to the right of Artemis is a crocodile humanoid named “Ariel Rebel” on her nameplate and a elf to the right of him with the nameplate on his chair saying “Adam Grand” . Zero, there is not that many non-humanoids are here Rackgul states the disgusting fact to Artemis. Shocking, that people who support a tyrant are bigots Artemis says sarcastically. Yeah, I guess your ri- Rackgul freezes as he sees a certain nameplate, “Abzil”. A man comes into the room with brown hair and a beard wearing vacation wear, Abzil sits down on the chair as a woman in business attire follows Abzil. Artemis looks back at the demon who begins heavy breathing and on his way to having a panic attack, Artemis tries calming Rackgul down by hugging him as hard as she can. The other people at the Royal meeting including Abzil look in confusion and judgement. Rackgul steels his nerve then squeezes Artemis arm reassuring her he’s okay and to let go.

An extremely obese men his arms saddling around a guy’s and girl’ neck, sits on the golden chair with their assistance. Rackgul recognizes the blonde man as the knight who cut the prison in half. As you know my name is king Broder, welcome to today’s royal meeting the king said between bites of a drumstick in each hand. Abzil puts his feet up on the table, the wrath ring has been doing well answering a question that wasn’t asked. Dammit Abzil, no one has time for your s**t Brorder says unafraid. Next time you talk out of line I’ll sick my son Julius on you Broder points at the Blonde knight. Oh please, we both know this is just my avatar but continue Abzil says confidently. After that rude interruption let’s get down to business, there have been many uprising rebels that are going against my monarchy. Infact, we have one right here King. Broder points at Rackgul. The demon stands up against the centaur’s wishes, no doubt some people are stronger than me in this room but I’m not one to go down like a p***y Rackgul states defiantly. The king laughs, we’re not looking for a fight with you. Im going to applaud you because despite being weak you escaped our clutches. Next point the princess of Centaurs Artemis Venus the king says through his food filled teeth. Yes, what do you want to know Artemis asks the king. There’s nothing I need to ask, you’re removed from our governmental meetings and you’re removed from being recognized as a political official. Why, what is the reason for my removal Artemis asks angrily. Calm down or I’ll have you thrown out, the reason your being kicked out is because you brought that piece of trash here the king says yelling at Artemis showing his real emotions to the situation. Well there’s no better reason for that because I love that “piece of trash”, come on Rackgul Artemis grabs Rackgul but the demon doesn’t budge. I have to say this or want get the chance f**k you and f**k you Rackgul says to the king and Abzil, Abzil puts his hand on his chest like “why he say f**k me for”
