Jason had never seen the Empire's ruler before, but he knew that the Lunar Queen's line had a signature colour. Moonlight-silver hair and violet-ever-changing eyes. It was well-known that the current Emperor took after his mother in terms of looks and colouring. When that was added to the fact that he had responded when he muttered that he needed to report it, it hadn't been that hard to figure out. Not to mention the pressure that being in his presence evoked. It was as if his own bloodline responded to the dominance of his ruler's own, and this was him clearly holding himself back.
Just as he was wondering why he was here at this time, the Emperor started to speak:
"Are you the ones who have been taking out some of the groups on the way here?"
Jason's eyes widened. He hadn't expected this to be the question. He quickly nodded his assent.
"Yes, we have."
