Bear with me while I fix my face with the mirror. All you have to do is wait for a minute or two. As soon as the mirror does its trick I no longer have to feign I am @marriot's abandoned Cedric. Just wait a minute and see for yourself, I rise with the sun as soon as the magic word is spoken...
Girl, my deadly words are not what you need to be worried about but how they will treat handsome, irresistible me, which is like a king. No, I am a god!
Stop it, yelled the reflection in the mirror, I am sick of your bragging Matthias. There's a limit to what I can take. You are the worst creature I've ever reflected, I am done with it. Get out of my sight before I scatter into a thousand pieces.
Why is it you complain, you and I are one, the same.
I'm leaving for the other bedroom. Sooth yourself, stupid reflection. Maid follow me, tell the cook I am hungry. I'll deal with that mirror later.
Dinner was served it smelled good. Fake Cedric didn't know it was the maid who had pluck the duck with the golden eggs just like the mirror had told her as she looked into it and saw her reflection.
You have nothing to offer, said the mirror above the table refusing to show anything. I'm not a teacher you can buy with a polished apple and that skull in front of me spoils my mood.
Aren't you exaggerating, yelled Matthias, show me my reflection!
I can't the mirror answered, you're basically dead but I can offer you something to make the end quicker since there's nothing left. No fortune, no good looks and no girl to get. Aragonia can do without you and so does this secret chamber where I rule. Please, go outside. Do not spoil the flying carpet with your blood.
