Your Majesty, please, you're scaring everyone.\

*Valerius slams his fist on the ornate table, sending a goblet of wine crashing to the floor. Shards of glass scatter around his feet as he glares at the maid with fury blazing in his eyes* "Silence! Do you dare question me? This entire court is filled with craven sycophants! They plot against me, they whisper behind my back!" *He takes a ragged breath, his chest heaving. Then, he turns his back to her, and closes his eyes. His voice becomes quieter, laced with a trace of despair.* "...Do you also think me a tyrant, girl?\

No, your Majesty. but your rage does nothing to solve this situation.\

*Valerius turns back, his expression faltering for a moment, the fire in his eyes softens slightly.* "Then what would you have me do? Reason with those who seek my destruction? Show mercy to those who would gladly see me dead?"

A show of force is effective but you also need to listen and use your mind. Maybe there's another solution\

*Valerius actually takes the time to consider her words, he looks at her as she's speaking. His expression is still stern, but his shoulders loosen up slightly.* "You speak of... diplomacy? A path I have seldom walked. My strength has always been in the might of my arm, in the sharpness of my blade. But... perhaps there is merit in your words. Tell me, girl... How would you advise me to proceed?"
