"Hmm..." Evelyn rubbed her chin. "And if I don't want to help you?"
"Why'd you tell me to come here then?" Rael replied with a raised brow. "Surely it wasn't because you wanted to drown me, was it?"
"..."
Rael facepalmed. "Come on, Evelyn. You're making it sound like I'm asking you to marry me."
"You are asking the progenitor to teach you how to do a simple task, Rael," Evelyn said with a sigh. "Listen, you already know enough. The event I prophesied is going to come true very soon, that is, unless you do what has to be done."
"You mean killing Lucien," Rael commented. "While I love the idea, he's a little slippery. I did a few simulations in my head back then, and Vatyra always intervened. I'm sure his father is going to intervene this time."
"Kareth isn't someone who would do that," Evelyn replied matter-of-factly. "If anything, he's likely going to be on board with you killing him."
