In the Name of the King: A Dungeon Siege Tale Page #4

Must you always appear

suddenly from nowhere?

I don't.

I appear so suddenly from somewhere.

You assume too much

entering my chambers unbidden.

I'm not welcome to the hospitality

you've offered in the past?

You're not welcome

to come and go as you please...

and then vanish without a word.

I'm not your harlot.

How could you think such a thing?

you know very well

why I must appear so quietly.

I can't very well be pounding

on milady's door, now, can I?

How do you come and go as you please...

when you're considered by my father

to be an enemy of the king?

I have friends. I wield influence.

Why does my father despise you so?

He's not known for his hasty opinions.

Questions! I did not come here

to be interrogated.

your father hates me

because I will not bow and scrape...

before the almighty king and his magus.

Because I will take from him what I please-

Even his daughter's virtue.

Begone from my chambers.

Begone from my life.

Are you banishing me as well?

And after all the work we've done.

Haven't I helped you

discover your power, your vision?

- You've introduced me to parlor tricks and nightmares.

- Be still.

Help! Please. Please.

My liege.

Again allow me to offer

my deepest apologies...

for mistaking your orders.

A mistake?

- Is that what it was?

- Yes.

Hmm.

May I sit, Your Majesty?

Boy!

I know- Go.

I know I have failed your trust

on several occasions...

and perhaps I may be

a disappointment to you...

and the entire kingdom,

but I will change.

I will shed this youthful folly

in this time of great battle...

and I will prove myself a worthy heir.

Eat.

You show a knack, my nephew...

for well-timed diplomacy.

I guess that's something.

May I offer a toast?

Possibly.

Drinking wine in the morning

is not a good way...

to show... reform.

Indeed.

Yes, indeed.

Long live the king.

Yes.

The Krug last attacked Stonebridge, in the south.

yes, and this harsh terrain...

will drive them north,

around the marsh.

Then we should attack.

That is, if the Krug behave

the way they're supposed to behave.

I don't like this, Farmer.

Nobody goes into Sedgwick Forest.

The forest passes between the mountains.

We'll come out at Slate Pass

as the Krugs arrive.

There's more than brush

and trees in Sedgwick Forest.

You don't just cut through it

when you please.

you don't wanna

be stuck here at night.

- We'll light torches.

- Torches attract eyes.

- Let 'em look.

- Farmer!

You know what people say.

There are... things in Sedgwick Forest.

People say God watches over the innocent.

People say a lot of things

that won't help us now, Norick.

Come on. We've got a lot

of ground to cover.

I don't see any path.
