He’s lost somewhere in his own mind. He doesn’t even notice her presence at first. All at once, he’s startled by the sight of someone else. He bowed quickly. “I apologize... I was just admiring the view of the pond,” he lied. From his previously dour expression, whatever he’d been thinking about, it had not brought him joy.

IT WAS THE NEW EMPEROR’S INTENTION to keep his only sister unmarried. Such was not the inclination of overprotection or a need for someone trusted to care for him in old age, but rather to keep the safety of his throne assured. It was foretold long ago, before her birth, that the princess would become RULER of the land. Whether that was through means of being Empress Regent or Empress Dowager, the Emperor could not be able to tell. If his sister married and a son was born to her, he would only see that as fate beginning his downfall. However, he promised his father to find the princess a good match. How could he do this and assure his rule? The answer came quickly and was quite simple; marry her off somewhere far away from Zhonghua. Let her become a ‘Queen’ in some foreign land, if the prophecy was bound to come true. She would not unknowingly threaten the lives of his own children to achieve greatness. His wife, the Empress -- ignorant as he believed she was -- argued for the princess’ right to stay in Zhonghua. She asked her husband, was he not a filial son? The previous ruler of Zhonghua never wanted his daughter far away from home. Zhonghuan royalty married within their own country. Would the new Emperor break this untold rule on behalf of blind paranoia? Never before had the Empress stepped over her boundaries with his Highness, but it was not surprising to the man.

‘Ah’, he thought. ‘My wife would do anything for that girl.’

‘She loves her more than I, after all.’

『♛❞ ——   ❝ Hold this for a moment ! ❞         Deep in contemplation,  he appears to find it  only natural  that she will be inclined to   ( quite literally )   lend a willing hand or two.  Even though his possession absent-mindedly dropped off for safekeeping in her arms is a live   ---   and certainly lively   ---   full-sized PEACOCK.  It looks just as confused about this entire predicament as she might be.

The Prince’s attention,  in the meantime,  focused elsewhere entirely as he goes about rearranging potted plants and chairs on his balcony.

           “Playing politics was never in my interests.” Why should it be? He wasn’t of noble blood, he was a traveller, the holder of strong magic and the tool to use it, but that was another point in entirely. He travelled around in search of tales to tell and things to  experience, as well his problems to avoid, or Void-sent to kill, his life was rather care-free. “I would rather not step foot within any castle nor keep.” His leg crossed, the Mage was certain about his choice. Had he even given them a chance to speak? Possibly not, he was very firm with his ideals.
