The Test of it All

"So," Commader Pyxis began, " you are the true king of the Walls then, eh?" "Yes," replied Nathaniel. "What bothers me is why now, why reveal youurself now? It is pointless and there would of been better times to do this." said Pyxis. "No, not necessarily. My goal from the beginning was to find my half-sister Historia, partly for my father, partly to save her from my father's grasp, and partly to have some family in my life for once. Now that's gone out the window, you both realized that you need someone to by the image of the coupe." replied Nathaniel. "Are we sure that you wouldn't be a repeat of what your father is? How can we trust you in this situation." asken Commander Erwin.

Laughing, Nathaniel replied, "You both would have the power in this coupe, it's I who should be worried. Secondly, I despise my father." Nathaniel's face twisted in anger, suddenly, throwing the other 2 off, his hands clenched and shaking. "What has he done for the people. He sends them out beyond safety like cattle to slaughter. He claims to want to keep the paradise, yet he does nothing when the walls fell those 5 years ago. He must be gone. The new king of this land has to be open, open to this nation and its needs. The new king should be the 1st citizen of this nation, to be first in line of duty to this nation, first to serve, first to sacrifice, and first to die. Is this enough proof for you?" asked Nathaniel "Or must there be more?"

"No, there need not be more," replied Pyxis. The 3 men looked at eachother. Their fates were entwinned now. Co-conspirators together, to rise or fall togther, at least for the 2 commanders, Nathaniel though, he could handle things if they went sideways.
