"What's a human doing here in our realm?"
"Maybe he is Queen Aria's friend, or perhaps another chosen one?"

"It should be the other way around. Emperor Alaric should be the one to dissolve the marriage, not her.... It's his right, not hers!!"
Hearing the murmurs echoing around the grand corridor, Aether frowned deeply. 'What the fuck?' he thought, feeling a surge of annoyance that quickly transformed into raw anger.
There was nothing wrong with this woman, and even if there were, she should never be labelled with such vile and disgusting words.
