Now, Mana had inside information from 'The Legend of Mars' which always described the evil emperor Raven as 'a tall, slim man with a beautiful face and no heart' – now, Mana would definitely argue that Raven was neither evil nor did he have no heart – in fact, in her eyes, it was other way round; if anything, Mana would say that Raven had too much heart – but then, while good and evil were variables based on perspective, tall and slim meant tall and slim. And no one with eyes would ever be able to call Raven ugly.
Seeing his worried little face now while he was comparing his own height with his younger (and taller) half brother Rook, and the older (and taller) brother in law Jules, Mana felt rather amused.
"Don't worry," she said to her little fiancé. "You will always be tall enough for me."
