Third Gate: Chasm of Tenebris (Part 5)
"W-what do you mean?" the City Lord's voice cracked. His body continued to tremble but his lips were still stretched into a grin.
"This city …," Elliot replied as he turned his back from him and looked at the city below. "It reflects all the things you value as its leader".
" … my values?"
"Fortune, fame, power, pleasure … It looks beautiful on the outside, yes, but if you look closely, you've been raising your people to be nothing. No dreams, no purpose, no values of their own … just out there living for pleasure".
"But they're happy! That's all that matters".
A moment of silence passed by.
"Are they?" Elliot dauntingly asked.
The City Lord trembled again. Elliot's voice was as calm as the waters in a brook, yet something from his gaze made him quiver, over and over. Even so, he still felt exhilarated.
"They're enjoying themselves, so yes, they are happy".
