The Story of Hanna/Chapter I - Interrogation - Tell Him the Truth
You take one deep and nervous breath, because you fear he's not going to believe you no matter what you tell him. "He told me that he came as a messenger in Chad's stead. Something has happened to him, which is preventing him from coming here."
"Oh, really now?" Robert asks and sits back down, dragging the chair closer to you. "And you just blindly believed him?" You nod slowly. "What made you believe him so blindly?"
"He… He had a letter from Chad, which told me to follow his orders no matter what, and he also knew some secrets about me, that only me and Chad should know…"
"Where is this letter now?"
You realize that you had given the letter back to Leon. Of course, you didn't anticipate this happening, but it could've been a good idea to hold on to it. You also regret not telling Leon to show the letter to guards should you be caught. "The letter is currently with Leon."
"Oh, that's bullshit! You're making shit up, Hanna!"
"I swear, I'm not lying!"
"Then, tell me about those secrets."
No, absolutely not. If you tell him you're a princess, he's definitely not going to believe you. Not even the ability to see through delusions is going to spare you from the punishment he's going to dish out on you. But wait, you don't have to tell him everything. "Chad is the only man alive who knows the identity of my late parents from Nova Albion…"
Robert doesn't say anything. You hope and pray he doesn't push this topic further. He looks very suspicious, having heard the full story. "Then it should be no problem telling me who your parents are."
Well, shit. This is really not heading towards a good direction. You really, REALLY don't want to tell him.
"See, Hanna. This is why I know you're lying. You're clearly holding secrets from me. All I ask you is to be honest, okay? If you're honest with me, I promise not to punish you so harshly, okay?" As he says that, he takes a glance towards his dog. You figure out that the punishment must have something to do with Dusty. "Tell me, why can't you tell me about your secrets?"
"Because you wouldn't believe me even if I told you…"
"That's for me to decide! Now, tell me the identity of your parents!"
