The fugitives and desperadoes already under [Death Sound]'s [Bewitchment] saw Arthur activate [Kingly Presence] and dropped to one knee without the slightest hesitation.
They gazed at Arthur with fervent devotion.
It was as though, in that instant, they had found their ultimate purpose in life.
They would...
Fight to the death under this lord's command!
Even the twelve who had just managed to restrain their desires now had fervor burning in their eyes.

Golden hair, golden eyes.
Every movement was like that of a lion surveying
