He saw it and quickly parried as he went to thrust at him
Edric dodges and kicks the back of his knee while pulling him back from the shoulder causing him to fall. He took his sword and threw it away then placed his own to Alistair's neck
"get out."
"Hf-"
His eyes widened in surprise, then quickly lowered as he regained his composure and gave him that sideways grin
"Sort of hard to do that when you're pressing a blade to my neck, princey~"
"...don't tease me! You... ugh. Whatever. Just stop doing this and I'll let you go."
His face fell-he actually looked serious for once...
"...You know I can't do that..."
"...then... you can come back. To the kingdom, to the knights, to... to me. We can even take you off the knights if you want."
"Edric, I can't...-"
"...why not?"
"I......"
He faltered, biting his lip nervously
"...please, Alistair..."
