*spoilers for my wip* (bc i wanna yap)
i am unreasonably obsessed with the moment in my WIP where Lee, who is arguably the most feared assassin in the world, and a powerful seer, and also newly-anointed ruler of Kirriga, runs into the palace cook. And she's like. You're a kid.
And of course he's like no I'm not how could you say that I'm twenty four. I'm the ruler I'm the seer I'm the Shade. But nobody has seen him as a kid in over a decade. Nobody has even seen him as a person, really, they all see him as /Shade/ /seer/ /ruler/. And I think, even though he would never admit it, there is this sense of...relief, maybe? That someone, anyone, sees him as just...some kid.
anyway.
