What... no serenade for me, 'Deities'~? I almost feel neglected...

Perhaps they ran out of ideas?

[council_king]

Or maybe they're getting weak... spreading their skills so thinly.

Video;

[worldofourown]

'Skills'? That's generous of you to refer to them as such. But hardly true, Mr...

[He pauses, smirking.]

My, my. How my manners are slipping. I don't believe we've been formally introduced as yet.

[council_king]

Yes... so, you are?

Video;

[worldofourown]

A question for a question, hm?

[He chuckles.]

Very well. It's nly fair, since it was I who asked first. I am Karl Fei-Ong. And you are...?

[council_king]

Rido Kuran, of the Royal House of Kuran.

Video;

[worldofourown]

Well, well. I've been speaking to royalty, all unawares.

[He offers a deferential bow, smirk still firmly in place.]

~A pleasure. And how would you care to be addressed? I fear Mr. Kuran may be a tad too familiar for a titled gentleman.

[council_king]

My, how polite.

You... can call me Rido-sama.

Video;

[worldofourown]

Very well. Rido-sama it is.

[His smirk widens.]

~As for the politeness, well, I once served a Queen. She did not take kindly to irreverence...

[It is, isn't it~?]

[council_king]

A servant?

Video;

[worldofourown]

A knight, you could say. A protector. Solely and exclusively hers.

Video;

[council_king]

Is that so. Then whatever will you do without your Queen here... or is she and she wasn't worth notice I didn't notice?

Video; <333 WE'LL TAG TMRW!

[worldofourown]

My Queen, sadly, isn't here.

[His eyes gleam, smile widening.]

However, I'm blessed there's another, whom I can worship in her stead. Her lovely sister, who is guarded by two selfish watchdogs...

Video; <3

[council_king]

High praise... worshipping someone here. I wonder, is she really worth it.

[Clearly doubtful.]

NOT HERE BUT

[liveontoday]

[NOPE NO SHE ISN'T DON'T CONCERN YOURSELF AT ALL! :|b]

NOT HERE BUT

[worldofourown]

[Oh, shush, Saya! Karl says you're as'worth it' as the ladies in a Lo'real shampoo commercial!]

[worldofourown]

She is perfection made flesh. All power and mystery, hidden in something so deceptively fragile.

[He lets off a short sharp laugh.]

Why, she's a perfect paradox, really. And soon to be my bride...

Video;

[council_king]

[Well, if that didn't get his attention nothing would.]

Really. That is quite a talent... if what you say is true.

Who is she... this Princess?

Video;

[worldofourown]

Not a Princess, Rido-Sama. A Queen. A purebred, from the same proud lineage as her sister.

...

She is called Saya.

Video;

[council_king]

Well, well. And here I haven't even paid my 'respects'. How neglectful of me.

Video;

[worldofourown]

~Oh, it's hardly your manners that are remiss.

[He lets off a sigh.]

If anything, the fault lies with her protectors. Her so-called Knights. The poor creature, they never allow her a moment's freedom.

[Overdramatic Karl is overdramatizing.]

[council_king]

This is nothing new.
