"heh.." He thought a moment at the wishing of luck "I'll need it, at the least this should clear my name once it all blows over" He didn't truly give a damn if he was branded a traitor or not but for conversation sake it was worth mentioning. He continued listening to the king following him to the doors, though the guards outside of them seemed nervous seeing the two together. He closed one eye lazily watching this little event between the two. "you know... maybe you should train your knights better. I'd be nice to expect a challenge somewhere" he was merely joking but the two guards seemed to shoot him a glare of daring him to try, if was worth the reaction from them as he smirked a bit. Though truth be told if all went well enough with the plan he probably wouldn't be fighting and try to take up his previous line of work, if at all possible.
"Well if this goes as we'd like then I shouldn't have to sneak back in now will i?" he had a point, though he had to admit he'd miss the thrill tonight had been one of the more exciting nights he had to admit. Walking past the guards he stopped and turned and look at them a moment before crossing his arms again. "I still stand by what I said train more" It was probably almost funny to see him scolding the royal guards for not being at the top of their game. "You have a important job, even if pace comes between the elves there's other clans and then the humans and a handful of other races would' love the chance to take out your leader" He shrugged slightly, it was a fair enough warning really and he was right even if the light elves and dark elves had peace between them... there'd still probably be a while before all the minor feuds settled.
Returning his attention to the king he nodded a little "I'll tell her, I think.. She'll be glad to hear those words more then anything. But you don't have to tell me your a better man then the last.. I know this for a fact. If I thought other wise I would have treated you the same way as the last one." He said it a little coldly at the end but it was true. He paused though before going on he wanted to clear his name with the light elves seeing as to their side he had the name of king slayer. "But then again I might not ave, the last one was for revenge ... though killing him was hardly as satisfying as I thought it'd be.." He shrugged slightly at it, but at the least he wasn't king anymore and couldn't do the same thing to others either.
"I've noticed... what are you going to do when he grows up and wants to sit in your lap then?" Though he was joking he'd hope to return the dragon to it's proper home before that time came. He noticed her eyes seemed to change like she was upset at the fact she had done it. "don't worry about it, he's still a hatchling, it'll be another 5 years before you have to worry about him breathing magic and really telling you when he wants attention." He smirked a little though he hardly looked forward to that.. and it was one of the main reasons he wanted to return the dragon to it's proper place. Hearing what she said he gave her enough of a hint that he had heard her, he wished she'd stop saying if he wanted to though. Of course he'd see her, it might be his last chance to see her as far as he knew. Or at least see her with his freedom... he didn't need to worry her with that though.
Bowing once more to the king out of respect he took his leave of both of them walking down the hall, he was intending to leave the way he came in. But really it was due to his weapons and otherwise it'd be a long way around to get to the building they were on. Once he was back outside and on the roof he had left them he quickly grabbed the daggers and placed them back into each holder. Then this was followed by fastening his swords to him again, like hell he was going to confront the queen or her children without a weapon. Though he sat there for a moment, what did Judith want anyway, not to say he minded seeing her but.. he had enough on his mind without distracting himself and making him hate his choice even more. 'tsk idiot, let it go you can't make her happy anyway and your both friends keep it that way...' he scolded himself, he figured he'd give her a little while to get to whatever room she had been given for the night. He had a general idea of the building layout and there wasn't but so many guest rooms in the place, he'd figure it out seeing as most of them didn't have anyone staying in them. It'd just be following what room had lights on.
