"Gods, this is taking forever!" Liam exclaimed.

Dominic shared a weary glance with the third man at the table, "Aye, my liege," he said, turning to the prince. "But caution is the watchword here. We aren't strong enough in numbers or weapons to achieve our goals."

With a gusty sigh, the teenager rolled his eyes. "There must be something we can do," he insisted. "These clandestine meetings are getting us nowhere!"

Tugging respectfully at his graying forelock, the third man spoke. "Begging Your Majesty's pardon, but these meetings do have a purpose." At the sour look he received, he chuckled. "Aye, hard for a young man - one bent on the doing rather than the talking - to easily understand, but it's true. These meetings serve to remind your people that you're alive and calling for them to fight for their king and country."

"Torlief has the right of it, Sire," Dominic cut in. Clasping his hands and leaning forward on the table, he peered closely at the young man across from him. "Things may be slow now, but the revolution will begin to snowball through spring and summer. We cannot make a move until all is in place or everything will be lost." The aide's voice softened. "I was advisor to your father, Liam. He trusted me. I ask that you place your trust in me, as well."

Long moments passed before Liam bowed his head. "Aye, Dominic. You have my trust, just as you had my father's. I know you'll only do what's best for the kingdom."

Smiling, Dominic reached out and squeezed the teenager's shoulder. "Thank you, Sire. You'll never know how much that means to me."
