Charon was laughing as he finished listening to the proposition. And it was a cold and mocking laugh
He leaned back in his seat as the laughter subsided, before finally speaking. "You come into my domain and offer me this? Do you take me for a fool?"
The strange man simply had a calm expression on his face as he waited for the god to finish.
Charon's laughter faded, and his eyes dangerously. "Do you know that by just uttering those words, the King of Dragons may have already heard? He sees all. He knows all. I will be no party to such foolishness."
The strange man still said nothing for a moment. Then raised the pendant hanging from his neck and held it up so that the green glow illuminated his face.
"You need not fret about the King of Dragons listening," he said in a calm voice.
Charon's expression shifted slightly.
The man continued. "I'm sure you can sense the power in this pendant. It is, in fact, why you haven't attempted to attack or cast me out yet."
