“What am I doing? My father trained me to fight for the innocent.” Lux was not sure who she was thinking to, but the thought came back to her as if from her own mind and even in her own voice.
“What are you wining about? The power feels great doesn't it? Imagine how much good you can do with this power that is just being handed to you. So what if a few innocent people get hurt along the way? The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few. So you may have to hurt or even kill a couple of innocent people to obtain the power that you need to do so much more good.”
“But what did the innocent people do to deserve to be hurt or killed?”
“How do you know that they are innocent? Even you have been guilty of the occasional cruelty or crime. If you had been caught doing certain things that you have done in Dragon, you would have been executed on the spot, would you not? Everybody is guilty of something.”
“That is the justification that the evil use to oppress the weak. I am supposed to defend the weak.”
“But that is what you are attempting to do. How many times have you come up against someone that was so much more powerful than you? With this power, you will be able to defend the weak against any foe that you come up against. You can be the unstoppable force for good!”
“That is true. I do wonder how may people I can help with this power. It has got to be so many more than I have ever been able to help.”
“Good, now you see that this power is a good thing. Now hop on that Wyvern that has been provided for you, and go do what you need to do to obtain the rest of the power that you seek!”
Lux stood up tall, proud of herself for the powerful being that she now has the potential to become. Walking up to the creature that she was now in control of, she limberly hopped on and with a simple thought and control, the wyvern took to the skies.
