Where it all Started

"Hmph." Abraxus snorted and looked away, but it was obvious he wasn't planning on making it anymore difficult on her. That said… that didn't mean Dyon wouldn't. "Even if I agree, I'm not the one you need to convince." 

"You may think I'm being unreasonable, but this isn't the case." Elsie smiled brightly, seemingly having gotten her way. "The fact that you have the power to eliminate us but don't is enough to prove your innocence. However, if you didn't have the power to do so, there would be no reason for us to believe you that this was all planned by someone else, right? So, aren't I being reasonable?" 

Abraxus' expression twisted. Though this somewhat made sense, it was still somewhat unsatisfactory.
