Witness what may be my last act in ruling this city.

This ends with her and myself fighting until the other perishes. There's no reason to let things roll on until the deadline, not when one can cut to the chase and demand trial by combat. It forces her to own the violence that has erupted and her part in it, rather than permit her to be one or two degrees removed. Or it calls her out on being a coward who has chosen to fight this way rather than confront me outright because she knows she'll be destroyed.

[Alucard's hands rest on the book.]

Agatha will abide the fight to ensure fairness. Should I lose, she will see that my corpse is returned here before it can be used as a political prop. She also has a copy of my will, as does James. [Weirdly enough, he's been the most reliable here. At least for parties and socializing, because yelling about shitty science has been kind of a life saver.]
