"Olivia, the Dragons are... different. They're the sovereign rulers, they don't follow our rules."

Father stood near the table at the center of the room, composed as always, though I could see the tension in his shoulders. “They are proud people and we are in their kingdom.”
“We are still royalty,” she shot back.
