Power Over Power

"The king welcomes the humans." A voice said from beside the king in an audible tone.

The humans seemed very skeptical about this, as the atmosphere at the moment didn't give any form of friendliness. At that moment, there was only one possible outcome everyone there thought of. It was definitely a ploy from the very beginning to not work any peace out between both sides.

These humans were not the bottom feeders. Each was a leader in his/her respective group, so they were no stranger to manipulation tactics, and they also knew quite well what the look they were getting meant.

For the first time after entering the room, the supposed king spoke. "Hmm." He certainly seemed comfortable on his throne, clearly not afraid of the humans before him.

"They do not meet the standard, just as expected. They are useless." The king said, audible and blatantly, without any fear or respect for the human subjects.
