'He always has a retort for everything,' Yasmin thought.
Fred shook his head. "I was just trying to look after you, Your Majesty. I told you Hylanders are cunning and
untrustworthy. They must be trying to persuade you to give up the experiment, but you can't fall for it.
"Remember why we've researched the experiment for so long. If you give up now, all our efforts will go to waste!"
