There was a time when revenge was the only thing I wanted, to reclaim my Kingdom, and destroy those responsible for my amercement, and the trials which followed.
But over time, my scars toughed up.

Getting even just wasn't enough.

Check and make sure he's alone. If he is alone, plan to kill him, he's seen too much.
If he brought friends, be extremely courteous.

Here's my suggestion for expanding the place.
Will need plenty of stonework.

Also, we should totally look into getting a scrying device. Every successful evil overlord has one.

He's... one of the woodcutters from earlier. I passed him going into the Timore Woodlands.

And yet... there's more than that.
Something from a long time ago.

Rungord Hookdon.

I haven't seen this human since I was still attending classes among the other high-class students.
Rungord was, for lack of a better term, my rival in those days.
My nemesis.

He played a rather nasty trick on me once when we were studying under the same tutor.
I retaliated.

That was perhaps a year before my father's throne was usurped.

Alright boss, play it safe.
Don't want word getting out that we are still around and inhabiting a dungeon.
We don't know if he really truly recognizes us yet.
Play it off like we don't remember him and inquire as to why he has come upon your door at such a late hour.

It seems Muschio is doing better than that guy these days. How delicious.
Perhaps it would be prudent to be generous and offer him a job.
Nothing would be better than having our old nemesis be our servant.

Rungord seems so far removed now from his former self, once guffawing with guttural laughter at my own humiliation before my peers.

"All right. So why are you here? What do you want?"

A look of soulless desperation crosses the human's face. He looks broken, empty. I half expect him to begin weeping, but his eyes are dry.

>"I didn't come here to fight you, Muschio. I don't have any more anger in me. I only followed you because... I have to know."

He avoids my eyes, staring down at the floor with a hollow gaze.

>"Please. Just tell me what happened to her."

WHETHER YOU SPEAK LIES OR TRUTH MATTERS NOT. YOU ARE PERFECTLY CAPABLE OF DESTROYING YOUR NEMESIS IN EITHER CASE.

Oh, yes.
I remember.

He's referring to Linbella.
I recall they were quite in love while we were students.

And then I recall he chose to cross me.

One of my finest moments, to be sure. Here indeed stands my old nemesis, utterly broken.
I suspected this would haunt him, but perhaps I underestimated to what extent.
Perhaps he should know, after all.
Should I tell him?

Yo should use what you know to press him in your service.

We must use this as leverage to gain power.
If we give him closure he would have no motivation to become our minion.
Dangle the hope of seeing her again in front of him, if he does what we tell him to.
Under no condition actually give him closure.

No part of me wants this human around. He is weak, spineless, broken. I feel an aura of odium emanating from his repugnant form.

This pathetic shell is all that is left of this once-proud man.
