More than ever

"This throne is destined for no one but me." The officials in the hall were stunned as Elijah blatantly and brazenly declared that the vampire throne was meant to be his. It was one thing to be moved by his words and then have a general consensus that he would be the one to lead them vampires to fight against the humans. However, hearing him declare it so directly like that was another matter altogether.

"It's time for the vampires to rise again. We will let those measly humans know who is the boss in this world. It's time for the world to know that we truly exist. It's time for us, vampires, to dominate this world again!" Elijah continued rallying up the officials in the hall, knowing that they were either totally bought into his words, sitting on the fence, or not daring to voice out their doubts.
