ATLANTIS, "The Grey Sisters", 20th December, 2014

sandi: Pasiphae "I believe we are more similar than you think. And what makes you think that? I cannot pretend to be as virtuous as you.
But I too have principles, beliefs that I am prepared to die for. Atlantis is a great city. I will not see it destroyed because Ariadne is too weak to defend it."
Jason "She defends it from you."
Pasiphae "You think I am the only threat? Our enemies are watching, they will seek to exploit Ariadne's weakness. We cannot let that happen."
Jason "Ariadne is the rightful heir to the throne."
Pasiphae "Ariadne's father usurped the King. She has no more right to the throne than I. Or you for that matter."

Pasiphae "I don't believe you're ready to hear what I need to tell you. But there will come a time, soon."
Jason "Please. I want to know what you mean."
