Prepared for what?
Prepared to leave.
When he had crawled out of the abyss, he had already planned for his future.

If she liked the Nine Realms, it would be their future home.
If she didn't, he would leave with her.
For someone like him, power and status had long ceased to be important; he didn't need these two things to prove himself.
Hannah understood the meaning in Arnold Simmons's eyes. She chuckled, her eyes reflecting the bright sunlight from above and the beautiful Floras.
"Arnold, you really are like a befuddled king."
She teased him with the same words she had used on Blue Star.
Arnold nodded generously in agreement, "Mm, you're right."
