HIGH PRIESTESS: I want sentries at every door. Put them on the roofs if you have to.
KYRIE: What’s going on?
HIGH PRIESTESS: There’s been an attack. Elion, you’re not to leave his side. Not one moment.
ELION: Understood.
KYRIE: What is happening? For once can you just give me a direct answer?!
HIGH PRIESTESS: sighs Prince Lucien… he is dead.
KYRIE: W-What?
HIGH PRIESTESS: Murdered in his own bed. I… don’t know what to think anymore.
KYRIE: H-How? Who—
HIGH PRIESTESS: The Guard have someone in custody, but I’m not taking any chances. Kyrie, call the Chosen. They are not to leave the premise until further notice.
INDRYR: Some of us have already come. If we’re to be locked down, I think we have a right to know why.
HIGH PRIESTESS: His Grace will explain to you at a later—
KYRIE: Lucien has been killed.
ÅSE: Hah? Dead? What is meaning of this? Who is culprit? What is being done?!
HIGH PRIESTESS: This is none of your concern. It will be dealt with—
EIRA: Like you’ve dealt with everything else?
ÅSE: You will deal with me! You tell me what is going on in this city! Nothing is right here! You are all foul! I wish not to share breath with you a moment more!
EIRA: Åse—
ÅSE: No! I am not to be calmed! That child was innocent, and there is killers crawling all over this place! Where is justice?
HIGH PRIESTESS: Kyrie. Get them under control. The trials will be postponed. Soon there will be envoys from Kera arriving. It’s going to be a political nightmare…
KYRIE: Is that all you care about? We’ve known the Prince since he was—
HIGH PRIESTESS: We will speak later. Elion.
ELION: Yes, Mistress.
ÅSE: And you, Priest! Are you to be like cattle herd? What have you to say?!
EIRA: Åse, stop it.
TAIYO: Your Grace? Maybe you should sit down…
KYRIE: I’m fine.
TAIYO: If you’re unwell, you shouldn’t push yourself.
INDRYR: I have something for queasiness.
EIRA: I’ll get Eve.
KYRIE: Please, I’ll be fine. We should gather the others. We have a lot to discuss.
Battle Axe, she's factionless and a worker for the SFOTH
She needs a redesign and her gear is going to change, her name is also going to be changed to Artemis because of that. This is also so she doesn't overlap with my boyfriends oc who ALSO has a battle axe gear
THERION: What do you mean “King”?
ELION: Yes, pray tell, what do you mean?
TAYUIN: Why should we discuss anything in front of you? Can’t you wait outside?
KYRIE: Tay…
ELION: Rest assured, Prince of Faeries, I’ve no love in my heart for the Church. I won’t betray you to the clergy. I’m just here to keep your sainted priest safe and sound.
KYRIE: He’s true to his word. At least, he’s kept it thus far.
EIRA: What happened to your respect for authority?
ELION: Darling, the only authority I’m interested in is in this room.
EIRA: You really need to evaluate your priorities.
KYRIE: Enough. Can we please focus? Lord Tev’us, care to explain?
TAYUIN: I wouldn’t. We have no idea who this guy is.
SARAYN: And why should I care either way? As far as I can tell, no one is trying to murder us. To these so-called vigilantes, the Chosen Ten must look like helpless victims drafted into a merciless battleground. If they’d like to bring the fight to our front, I am more than happy to accept the challenge.
EVE: Let’s not be unreasonable. I’m sure most of us here would prefer to avoid violence. At least we should all be fully aware of all the stakes. So, if you will, please proceed. Let’s put everything out on the table here and now.
SARAYN: Very well. It’s no secret. When the Valkyrie and I were transported into the past— thanks to your charming display of self-control—
EVE: That’s so unnecessary!
ASTER: If this whole magic tradition thing falls through, we ten would excel as a theater troupe!
KYRIE: Lord Tev’us, do continue.
SARAYN: We were witness to, what I assume to be, some sort of cover-up. One of the Chosen murdered by elves of the royal guard.
KYRIE: Are you certain this is what you saw?
SARAYN: Without question.
ÅSE: Deathling is not wrong. It was all very confusing. Though, it seemed that all were familiar. They knew each other. Still, they killed him all the same…
SARAYN: Before he was slain, the elf, Castien Thallan, alluded to having angered his father. The ambush seemed to be the escalation of a particularly long-standing conflict. Either Thallan’s father had substantial pull in the royal sphere, or was one who could command such an attack. Someone like the King.
THERION: Killing his bastard and hiding the evidence? That’s low.
SARAYN: Perhaps. In any case, the guard made it clear that Castien was not the first.
Fun fact: Taiyo is Tae-Gyu's and Minoru's son, but I couldn't find enough pictures to use them as a reference, so I went the next best option and a different ship I like:
They're probably his second parents anyway-
However, I did not use Laura as a reference for Je-Ni, but:
