And even if we were to see it with our own eyes, do you think she will accept it as the necessary proof? I am, after all, forbidden even to be in the city, such is the length and breadth of her arrogant folly.
Perhaps the King ... I will need to explain it all to his Majesty, before that woman, goodness knows the spin she'll so artfully apply.
And Julian, my. He does love his brother, so. Of course, he loves me, as well. It has always been his nature to love, hasn't it? Would he forgive me, thinking it ridiculous, as I do? Will he forgive me for this? Enough, perhaps, to keep me out of chains. I certainly am putting a great deal of faith in that.
I cannot even say whether it would be best ... hn. Fate and circumstance have such a way with all of our plans, do they not?
There is little I can do for them, in Atsiria ... A pity, that, but honestly, it is in the hands of something much greater, if certain elements of their journey are to be believed. And I saw enough of it with my own eyes, hm? But here ... Regardless of the price. Perhaps I am merely being petty, you did prance about beneath our very noses for so very long, Prince Tristel. An embarassment, to be sure, but harmless ... I really must question your methodology, to be honest. After killing Julian, did you expect to win the favor of the people? The crown? Would have you killed the King, perhaps?
Ridiculous. Christopher would be crowned long before you. But of course, perhaps he was next on your list. It is altogether impossible to tell, and aren't you clever, at least in that regard?
I am only asking for one more mistake. A trifling one, really. I am quite tired of this waiting, and really, you've always been so obliging, I hope I can count on you, now, when it certainly matters most. Your Highness.
