Security By: Fawkes Pryde =^x^=
Honestly, for being such a smart scientist Lalna could be completely brainless sometimes. In a way, that fact was both ironic and amusing. He thought that he was completely protected at all times, sleeping soundly under the security of his force field. His technology shielded him from any and all attacks during the night time. The machines he built stayed ever vigilant for the pesky mage undoubtedly lurking about. The only one who could counter his madness with equal fervour.
Lalna was practically a self promoted god with all of his creations waiting on him hand and foot. He build weapons from scrap metal and broken parts and could detonate a nuke with the press of a button. Indeed the scientist was smart but he was also cocky. This always led to brash decisions and terrible choices that caused others to suffer. Not that he was trying to purposely hurt other people. Lalna wasn't cruel, he just didn't think about the cause and effect that his experiments had on the area around him.
This always led to his downfall though. And as much as he thought he was two steps ahead of everyone, he was anything but. Lalna had practically lured himself into a false sense of security and started acting brashly because of this fact. At first it was to leave his castle and gather resources but it was only twice and he never strayed far from his home. He knew that this was a risk, especially with Rythian wanting revenge on him, but days turned to weeks and soon he found himself disregarding his common sense. Time passed and soon he was working at Honeydew Inc. again. It was quite the long distance, true, but with a certain remote hidden in his pocket, Lalna didn't feel he had much to worry about.
That was what he thought.
He was wrong.
