"It's been weeks since you last called for me," Celeste told him. "I don't know what suddenly changed when we used to spend the night together every night."
"You know very well that a lot has been happening. Our empire is under attack and so that's what I've been busy taking care of with His Majesty. It's extremely stressful. You know this, so don't be unreasonable!" he complained to her.
