It was then that the king felt the first true pangs of panic.
He clenched his jaw until his heart slowed and his feet grew firm beneath him.
He appeared to be the very soul of calm and politesse as he made his third offer.
He told the Lady Sarkana that she must, she must ally herself with him.
For, if she did, he could give her the greatest treasure he had at his disposal.
Knowledge.
He himself had uncovered the answers to many of life's great mysteries and the secrets to the inner workings of the world.
He knew why the doors of iron had to remain shut at all times, and why the waterfalls of crystal fell upwards.
He knew the story behind the man who could make sculptures that would one day come to pass, and the plans the Leviathan kings had for the world above.
All of this and more, so much more, every scrap of knowledge in his head and in the head of every great being in his wondrous city would be hers, to accomplish whatever she liked, if only she would join forces with them.
The Lady Sarkana considered this offer long and hard.
Unlike the other two, this one held weight in her mind.
Knowledge of the ways of the world is always valuable and always in short supply.
You can never have too much of it.
But finally, she shook her head.
No.
No.
She had the knowledge that she needed already.
The knowledge of herself.
For learning, magic, and wealth are all the same in the end.
