— ❝ NO - NO , FAIR NERISSA , THAT IS NOT MY POINT , ❞ Ferdinand chides ; it’s a small chuckle on his lips , but it’s a bit dryer than what he normally offers. Because the subject matter began with him explaining a fairytale - a fairytale about a corrupt religious organization that used the power of gods to control a toxic system based around such divinity. And the GALLANT EMPEROR that took matters into her own hands to save that realm , even those the path she walked was stained red with the blood of the divine - and even some of those who weren’t. ❝ I am only telling you this to shed light with you that sometimes , those in power are not correct , whether they be nobles , royals , or even gods. We must not listen blindly to their words if we are aware or suspicious they remain untrue or unjust , and as well , we must not allow ourselves to TUMBLE into a path of becoming them once we hold such positions. ❞
