Mikhail said nothing as Fatima began explaining her motives to the old priestess. In that situation, Fatima's pure honesty and good intentions would be much better than anything Mikhail could say or do for himself. Exactly as Mikhail was expecting though, Fatima proved his thoughts to be right. The way she spoke, by itself was already a clear indication to the old priestess of how different she was from the other queens. The way her feelings were clear behind her voice and expression, an undeniable proof of her pure and good intentions. As she spoke though, Mikhail couldn't help but to stop for a moment, realizing how he was coming to change his view and opinion about Fatima, which were now, much more different than they were when he first met her. That said, just as he said and was thinking himself, she was completely different from other queens... maybe, just maybe... Different enough to deserve his respect and loyalty... But that was something only the time would tell.

Mikhail found himself breathing easier, relieved when he heard the old priestess' next words, acknowledging that Fatima was indeed an 'unusual' queen and agreeing to help them. The old priestess would prepare a candle and open the portal, but when she mention that there would be a cost, Mikhail's expression immediately changed. Indeed, nothing ever was for free. The moment the old priestess mentioned her cost though, Mikhail couldn't help but be a bit worried. A black jeweled warlord prince was a ticking bomb. Unstable and dangerous. Even more than even Xandar. No matter that he had saved a young witch from being broken or that he was a good person, he was still incredibly dangerous and unstable.

Mikhail simply looked at Gennar and Fatima with a concerned expression after hearing the old priestess' words. It was still Fatima's decision but if they indeed agreed with that deal, they would need to have a way to control him.
