A. Bobbie, Tell Actus that you are the one who needs to keep Abdle's evil morals and reckless behavior in check to make him a better demon, while in turn, Abdle is the one that keeps you from letting your own morals from clouding your judgement when it comes to protecting your kingdom when a difficult decision needs to be made. You would be dragging this kingdom down if he wasn't there to help support you.

Gram, I can assure you, after hearing how he used Bobbie's full name when no one else have, I am confident on knowing who he is, and that he will not hurt Bobbie, especially since he seems to be more concerned about Abdle influencing Bobbie.

What I want you to do, Gram, is vouch your approval of Abdle's better morals and how he isn't dragging anyone down by telling Actus about how Abdle saved your life against that hero who kidnapped you. If he was a parasite, he would have left you for dead, but he risked his life to come for your rescue. (no need to say Shadow Taker's name unless you absolutely have to)

Glad Abdle made it somehow, cause he is going to be important.

Remember when Abdle took a piece of himself at the party to use gray opportunity to look into the spy rat’s thoughts? I’m wondering if we can do that trick here too, and this might be our one and only chance to do it while Actus is concentrating on flying

Abdle should give a small piece of himself to Bobbie, then Bobbie should sneak it somewhere in Actus’ armor

(B) holding on to his body would be the best way to do that sneaky trick. He’ll just think you are trying not to fall and be none the wiser.

Then we play the waiting game. When the time comes, we will ask Abdle to take a snooze, and then Gray opportunity can manipulate his mind to help him see things our way. Wait for our signal

Abdle should be on the lookout while we are flying also.

A. He's worried about Bobbie's safety, maybe terrified even, and wants Bobbie to see reason by showing her the destiny that could befall her current kingdom and her life by looking at the monument of the fallen kingdoms of the past.

I know Actus is not going to like it, but I would like Abdle to answer this question, one to show Actus that Abdle is smarter than he thinks and not just a nuisance. Abdle will need to gain as much respect from him as he can, even just a tiny little. If we can get him to show that Abdle is someone that can be a reliable partner, it'll help win this argument.

and two, if we are going to have an argument with Actus, I'll need Bobbie to keep her cool if we want to have him see things our way by having Abdle do some of the talking, especially since Bobbie doesn't like Actus and might say something spiteful. So Abdle sharing the weight is going to help keep her from lashing out.

As if you even have a choice at this point.
1) you would be abandoning your people to face Dredge alone
2) as if Dredge wouldn't have you hunted down anyway

Actus is just another in a long line of people who really really think you should go away because you're inconvenient for them

Answer his question with a question: why did he become a hero when any mission can get him killed? It’s to save lives.

It’s the same with us, we became a ruler To save the monsters when they have no other leader to protect them, and lead them to a more peaceful better future. If somebody else were to lead them, they’d probably lead them to a life of mayhem against all others. We can help lead the monsters to prove to others they are better than that. Better than what humankind sees them as.

And as for them blaming us if we fail if our kingdom falls, at that point we’d deserve it, but they’d blame us and humankind even worse if we quit now and abandon them. And even if we fail, there are some monsters who would still support us through the failure

That said, if he wants to save you, he needs to save the monsters too cause we are not going to abandon protecting them.

Think of it this way, you kill the monsters and they learn to hate you and fear you. You are their monster. Save them and you save more than just their lives. You save the future lives of the people you care about, and their children, and their children's children. You create a legacy.

No. 1133423 ID: fe0bf7

Well, if he didn't want to be a hero, then I can only assume he became a hero out of necessity, or was forced into it. one reason could be that he became a hero to protect Bobbie from the heroes guild trying to go after her, why else is he trying so hard to prevent other heroes from taking quests that go after Bobbie despite it getting him in trouble to the point of exhaustion? But this is just an educated guess.

If that is the case, and he plans on continuing to do that, does Actus know about Maxwereus' ability to detect lies? If not, he needs to be very very careful about what he says to him the next he meets him. Suggest the idea of lying to Pure Pear about anything he doesn't want Max to detect, and have her speak for himself so that anything she says she'll think is the truth and won't be caught in lies. Otherwise, it might not be safe for him to continue being a hero for the heroes guild for much longer if he continues to protect Bobbie.

and as far as Bobbie's fear of humans goes, perhaps Bobbie should admit to Actus that she fears humans, yes. But she is trying to regain that faith in humanity, as she already has a few humans in her ranks, and some humans she has some feelings for (Nasty Shit comes to mind. But we do NOT need to mention her, keep her a secret. Dont want Max finding out about her).

And human or not, the monsters accept her as queen, we have a duty to lead them. If the monsters can accept her as a queen despite being human, maybe one day Bobbie can fully accept humanity again.

(on the topic of Maxwereus, I realize we should probably try not to reveal any secrets with Actus while we try to convince him, because then there would be a chance Maxwereus can find out by forcing the secret out of Actus, and get him into more trouble. For example, I was planning on mentioning the Dizelu family crest we got to try to form an alliance with their kindom, but if Max gets that info out of Actus, it will be bad for both Bobbie and Actus)

This seems like a situation where he definitely didn't seek out the title of hero, but it was thrust upon him by others who needed him to one. Well, we're no different. People needed us to step up, and we chose to accept that role. Ultimately, what makes one a hero vs a villain is roughly what side of the battlefield we're standing on.
>>

He became a hero to protect you seems like. He changed his name so nobody would know about the family tie. Seems family means a lot to him and you shouldn't take that lightly at all.

More likely her brother. We've seen her father before. https://questden.org/kusaba/questarch/res/1107808.html#1114062
and both Actus and Bobbie were using words such "our father" during this conversation.

B) That is not right. Yes The world has changed long ago, but the world is changing again, powers are shifting, public opinion their kingdoms and guilds is changing, and Bobbie has changed. And Bobbie isn't recreating a family and old memories, she's creating new memories and a new family within her people.

And what about Actus' family? He mentioned having a wife, so why is he risking throwing his and his own new family's life away for treason trying to save Bobbie? Isn't he trying to do the same thing he's accusing Bobbie of recreating those memories by trying to save her when he already has a new family he's created out of love? It's pretty much why Bobbie can't go back, she loves her people.

I'm not too happy Bobbie revealed us lesser demons to Actus, but I guess it's kinda moot point since Gram already revealed us to Actus before Bobbie did. Abdle probably should have said: "I picked up on some cues the way you said words such as "our father" or "our uncle""

But anyway, B. Ask Actus this hypothetical: "You said you have a wife, would you be willing to let your own family die if it meant saving me? Because you are essentially asking me to let my own family die to come with you."

"Even if we go with you, Maxwereus will still be looking for me even if the kingdom falls, and eventually, he WILL start questioning you, and be able to draw whatever hiding spot you have for me with his lie detecting ability."

(If Actus didn't already know about Maxwereus detecting lies, it is highly important he learns about it now so he can prepare).
>>

Ask him why exactly does he still need to be a hero if he is so conflicted with coming after you.
