The return to the throne had been something Altair desperately sought. It felt natural. Calming the mind of unwavering convictions.
Presently, in his court stood Athena and Aurora, both locked in a sort of debate.
"No God will simply agree to lose their land even if Altair is the Ruler. To suggest that any sort of property without reason could simply be taken away is inconceivable."
Aurora remained impassive. "Land that isn't beneath the Emperor's Reign is subject to be conquered. We've little time to care about the morality of action. Not when—"
"Aurora," Altair interrupted. "Why are you debating Athena? Thaan is the chancellor."
Aurora lowered her head respectfully. "Forgive his absence. He wanted to review the three-day event we had planned—the coalition party."
'Ah, I see. Athena is trying to change Thanatos' mind through Aurora. Cute.' He thought, 'So that's his intent.'
