[The spite doesn't go unnoticed by Arthur, who remains reticent as he returns Gilgamesh's icy stare. One can guess that he isn't used to being involved in confrontation; that's his brother's area of expertise, not his. But Michel is nowhere to be seen, and the man in front of him expects answers.

Answers he is not certain he can give, in truth, but he'll attempt to.]


Closer to a quarter-breed, I assume. [Neither he or Michel is aware of their true heritage. They'd been spirited away by their fully human parent before they could talk, and any questions had gone unanswered. The both of them do possess a certain magical aptitude, but as far as appearances go, they're not too different from a regular human.]

I had nothing to do with the plot to bring down the sun. [It's clear by the tone of his voice that he's entirely genuine when he says this. There's a hint of bitterness in his voice, however, that suggests perhaps he isn't the biggest fan of how things turned out.] Michel had spoken of it, but I was never told of the final plans until after it had happened.

[Maybe because he would have argued against it. Michel had thought it would seem like the gods frowning upon the two conflicting sides, but instead, it had only spurred on more conflict. Arthur could have told him that, if he'd asked. The humans lacked the religiosity to connect it to any higher power, and the goblins would never have believed Ydite was punishing them. Instead of letting Arthur tell him this, he was impatient and secretive.]
