The king tried once again to persuade his imperial guest to take some rest with his lover first, and to postpone the mysterious "session" until later. Much later. Which proved unambiguously the seriousness and perhaps even the atrocity of what he was about to do. To regain that power she didn't know anything about, and that her prince missed so much.
And as was to be expected, Myzon refused to postpone what he had come to obtain, and which took him decades to resolve to come and take.
- Ah Orchus, you know me too well to believe that I will wait any longer. I came and I will take everything. Anyway, time will never change what I am.
The king considered his sovereign for a moment and then opened his arms in a sign of long-familiar helplessness.
- I know, of course I knew. It's just that I still had the irresistible, fundamental need to try. That's all.
- I understand. And nobody will ever blame you for this gesture.
