"Lies? Deception? Those are foreign to my heart!" Arubah grinned evilly:

"However if you want the truth then here it is!" He removed his mask of ardent energy revealing his true self.

"I am not an evil man or at least what you've envisioned me to be or what you made my sister believe me to be! So he that image out of your head! You may be that child's father but I am her uncle and by far I have more experiences and knowledge in guarding my treasures! For that child is one if not the most precious ardent gem in the whole cosmos... I am her uncle and I am a pirate she is my treasure so don't you dare try and take her away from me for I am as dangerous to you as the Spanish conquistadors were to the Aztec Kings! So I advise caution since we share a most valuable treasure."

"However king Athanasius merely clapped his hands in amusement:

"My, my, so your feelings are genuine... Forgive me I am unable to completely see through you as I am not a holder of matron. But now I know I can trust you with not just my treasured daughter but my queen and wife as well she will be joining you on board... Have a good day." Athanasius clapped his hands and began to leave the room.

Meanwhile, Arubah sulked:

"You could've at least played along with me! You are worse than uncle Sinbad! Boring king!"
