Dragon Soul's words reassured Nari somewhat, but she was still a bit unwilling:
"But what if that woman really goes mad? She doesn't seem like a sensible person."
"Cassandra is radical, but she is definitely not a madwoman."
Aselia shook the dragon's head:
"Although her background is helped by the legacy of the Witch King's ancestors, being able to emerge from internal strife means she must possess basic rationality and control."
"Her threat is more of a 'pressure tactic,' aimed at making Ron choose as she expects."
"So the key is not who to choose, but how to make them both indispensable to you."
Dragon Shadow turned to Ron, the wisdom in its silver eyes glowing:
"Your biggest issue now is not being threatened by both sides, but being 'consumed' by both sides."
