An Interesting Dilemma

[Deleted]

Lord Dosise found himself walking to the large and very detailed doors. Behind them was the throne room. He had figured this would be the best place to find Phillis these days and he figured sense he was king he should choose if he wanted Dosise to protect him still.
He paced outside the doors not sure what to say. It was weird to think, Phillis was now king of a land his home destroyed. He was quite curious as what would happen when his memory did come back.

He sighed and pushed the large door open, he would just go with it.

[Phillis Von Christ]

Phillis was sitting in the throne room, he had nearly fallen asleep after being so exhausted. As soon as he heard the doors open, he quickly sat up straight. He relaxed a bit as he noticed it was someone he already knew. "Oh, hello there!" He greeted.

Dosise tried not to laugh when he saw Phillis jump up but a small quiet chuckle managed to get out. "Greetings your highness. How are you today?"

[Phillis Von Christ]

"I'm quite alright. How are you?" Phillis asked, he wiped his tired eyes and messy hair, trying to look more awake.

"I can't complain, I'm alive aren't I?" he walks closer to the throne and removes his hood, "Phillis you are your own king now, you make the rules not your brother...... If you want me keep me, but if you don't you now have the authority to send me away."

[Phillis Von Christ]

"Stay if you wish. You've been so good to me but I can't tell you to stay or go, do as you please." Phillis said kindly, he wished to be a favorable king.

[Deleted]

"Alright Phillis I have the option, but now I want to know what you want. Both are things for me to know." he could tell that he was trying to be a good king, but he didn't want him being a weak one.

[Phillis Von Christ]

Phillis sighed. He didn't really know what he wanted. "Well, it would seem rude to send you away.. I want you to stay but.. I don't want you to hate me.. " he muttered to himself.

Suddenly, an idea hit him. "Hey, why don't you become a knight? That way you can help protect everyone."

[Deleted]

Dosise had considered it, but the fact he had tried to destroy the knights would always create that awkward feeling. He would think some more on it. "I will consider it, not sure if they would want me though." he chuckled inside at the thought of them knowing who he really was.

[Phillis Von Christ]

Phillis was confused. " Why wouldn't they want you? You're a great fighter, you'd make a terrific knight."

[Deleted]

Dosise nodded, "Yes I am a great fighter, but that's not the most important thing about being a knight. At least it shouldn't be."

[Phillis Von Christ]

"I suppose you have a point. Well, the choice is yours, do as you please."

[Deleted]

Changing the subject Dosise asked, "So how's the memory? Anything reappearing?"

[Phillis Von Christ]

Phillis nodded his head slowly. " I remembered something the other day. The massacre with the vampire girl, Denzel, who recently died. I don't remember it all though, only a second."

[Deleted]

"I see, well that's good that something has come back. It is a sign that more things are almost sure to be remembered." he thought about Phillis' brother and the effect that long term advisors had on him. "Phillis if you need advise on things ask....ask many people get different outlooks. Please don't trust only one persons."

[Phillis Von Christ]

Phillis was surprised by the Dosises random warning. "What do you mean by that?"

[Deleted]

"I am just saying to get as many views as possible so your judgement isn't clouded, that's all. I didn't mean to offend you if I did." he said raising his hands as if to say he was sorry he brought it up.

[Phillis Von Christ]

"Oh, no. It's fine, I'm not offended. I can see what you mean, I've been trying to leave here to talk to more people but I'm not allowed to till I'm all healed up. You're the second person to visit me here to talk. People just don't like me much."

[Deleted]

"Nonsense," he began to think and realized that the people may not actually like him, but Phillis needed confidence. "What makes you think this?!"

[Phillis Von Christ]

Phillis laughed. "What doesn't make me think that? The way people look at me, and talk to me, the way they seem relieved every time I say I can't remember who I was. The more I hear about the person I was, It begins to make sense as to why people would dislike me. Even now I'm a coward and only won this position due to luck. Don't even lie to me, You know it's true."

He sighed, slumping back in the throne. " I don't mind, but a part of me never wants to remember."
