ONCE YOU COMMITTED ME
The age old insult. Quite literally, in fact. Aegon lightly let out a chuckle as the child mentioned his age and large stance that provided a clear advantage. A subtle, devious grin met his lips. If only they knew. Death was a punishment for a reason and if Lucinder wanted to continue on this blessed Earth, then he would remain complicit. The lion knew what burden he held over others. This situation was no different. Except... he didn't want anything. Aegon was merely supporting those around him and promoting his agenda. He chose to skip the question willfully.
His paw attempted to push further on the other's neck. Applying presumably enough pressure to potentially choke the other, the horseman lowered his head downwards and tried to lock eyes with Lucinder's. "You fear us," he echoed back. "Our group took ahold of your group." A gust of hot breath maneuvered down towards the other as he grew face to face. "You, mortal, are quite the fool." Imagine asking the animals who took over rightfully to rescind their hold and attack their own kind. The logic was pitiful. Needless to say, Aegon's disappointment in the living had grown, despite his fascination for their ways.
He let out a huff. "Now, you can either succumb as a captive here, rot on pike on the border, or go back to Tanglewood with your tail tucked between your legs," came his threatening growl. Maybe this time they would make the wise choice. If not, the lion would most definitely make a move that even Vale would find wickedly vile.
