Allura, on the other hand, simply raised an eyebrow as there was no hostility in his voice.

"How harsh! And here I thought we made an alliance."
"The alliance was only for your help regarding my mother's condition. It has nothing to do with what you're trying to do now." Alice shook her head, but Zal-Ka'Rith simply pulled out a single book.
"The condition was to 'save' her. We've done little to save her when the pages are still showing signs of being taken out. And let's just say…" He revealed a toothy grin.
"The path you were walking down was removing a few pages. So, as a show of goodwill, I decided to pop over and have a look. And to my most unexpected surprise, you were trying to make yourself an 'outsider' to the rules of this realm."
It was at this point that he lost his smile.
