(Yes that’s perfect!) Xylo tan after him, responding “You know I had no choice. I was outvoted by at least four of them.” He walked beside him, explaining softly “I know it’s hard for you, about your mother.”(Maybe Xylo and Horius get into a verbal fight and someone pulls a knife/gun and River jumps in the way?)
River watched intently. I feel terrible about this. She thought miserably. She hated that this would tare apart a friendship, and probably more than one. But it had to happen.
That’s where the talking stopped. Horius grabbed his throat with both hands and hissed calmly “Don’t. You. Ever. Talk. About. Her. Is that understood.” He explained further “I trust you with my secrets, and you betray me to a human turned hunter? To a random Aves who shows up one day?” He continued onwards “I know your secrets Xylo. Have I ever betrayed you? Have I told River of what you’ve done. Curse her, playing with you like a doll. You’re not Xylo. You’re someone else. And I was friends with Xylo.” He finally let go, letting Xylo stand once again.
Xylo immediately pulled out his knife, asking intimidatingly “What do you say about her?”
Horius kept walking, before acknowledging what they both knew “You know what I said. Curse her, she’s your master. You are no longer a man.”
Xylo stood still for a few moments, contemplating what he should do.
