Alexander's yell thundered through the Imperial Throne Room.
"Why would you do something so foolish?!"
Three orbs floated before him, each showing the rulers of the other domains, but his eyes locked on the one displaying Eragon.
The Dragon Lord's golden eye narrowed. "Are we going to ignore the fact that he attacked my people?"
Alexander's rage flared. "Fuck your people!"
Even Eragon flinched. The other two rulers, Francis, the Beast Chief, and Elaine, the Elf Queen stayed silent, understanding why Alexander snapped.
Alexander's voice cut through the silence. "Because of your stupid action, the boy has refused to tackle the Hallow. And you're telling me he hurt your people? If the Hallow isn't taken down, your people will be the least of our problems!"
Eragon chuckled, it was a low rumble that carried arrogance. "And here I thought he was mature. Endangering the world over a few marks on a person? Truly shameful behavior."
