Tempting Fate

More Rabbit Anger?

"Thank you Kobus, I am anxious to hear Noerdeber's ruling. I am certain he will rule wisely on this."

"Do I not always rule wisely Gathis? You would doubt me?"

"No my king, I do not doubt you at all. I merely hope you also rule wisely in my wish to fight the human. He dares to think I cannot beat him. I merely wait for you to rule as wisely as you ever do."

"So if I say no to your wish to beat on the clearly inferior human Gathis, I am not ruling wisely? Is that what you truly wish to say to me? Are you certain sure?"

"Of course not my king."

"You just believe I couldn't possibly not allow you to fight the foolish human? It is hubris to think you know your king so well to proclaim such a thing."

"I didn't Noerdeber."
