It was the Antimatter Legion's Doomsday Beast. The Legion attacked Herta Space station, the place we were at. They follow the Aeon--I mean the god of Destruction.
[ the correction is clearly to make it a little easier to follow along ]
[ his sacrifices are way more noble than hers. she really wants to ask, but he asked about her stuff first. ]
I think I should share a bit of background for it to make sense.
[ in they go! she'll lead him to the fridge units so they can pick some drinks. ]
Where I'm from, there's certain expectations for the next in line for the throne. You have to be of noble birth and you have to be able to use magic. While I was the first born princess, I am unable to use magic. Alu could use magic, but many thought he wouldn't make a great ruler.
I distanced myself from him and renounced my claim to the throne in order to help pave the way for him to succeed. He sacrificed his humanity for power with the hopes he could change the kingdom for the better.
[ they are beautiful words and i am glad to receive them.
caelus listens, because he doesn't know much about royalty other than he's not supposed to be so forward with its members. without march to buffer or miss himeko to charm everyone, it's been moderate effort to remain on the right side of appropriate. but by the aeons, he tries. ]
I use something like a work around with spirit stones. In my Mana Blade, there's an engine with a piece of spirit stone that will form the blade. I also crushed up the spirit stone of a dragon to make an ink for the tattoo on my back.
But the cult is able to seal that kind of power, too.
[ everything, universally. perhaps he shouldn't be so worried about the stellaron detonating after all. they're probably all safe and have nothing to worry about re: caelus ]
Do you regret renouncing the throne?
[ caelus you can't just ask people if they regret renouncing the throne ]
Also it's fine! It's easier because it's Caelus asking. ]
I don't regret it. I regret leaving him alone as I had. At the time, I thought if I acted foolishly and alone, then no one would ever think I was a threat to him. If I hadn't renounced the throne, we would have been pitted and compared to each other all the time.
I might have also been forced into a marriage as well.
[ caelus likes to lend a listening ear, but the devil's bargain in borrowing it is he'll forever have follow-up questions. insatiable curiosity--and he's not cat-coded, so it won't seemingly kill him. ]

[ she was a nerd ]
Why were you going to blow?
no subject
I have a Stellaron inside me.
[ he's using a term normal for him :) ]
no subject
that's probably a term unique to his world but she doesn't want to ask after saying something like that.
so she'll go with context clues. ]
Ah. Is it too powerful for you to contain?
no subject
It hasn't been dangerous to anyone since then. I'm usually traveling with Mr. Yang.
[ the memory probably supplied his name around the time he gave caelus the bonks ]

[ putting a hand on his arm. ]
I used to get a bit out of control, but it was my own doing.

[ she was planning on sharing something else, but the shadows will give him a much different fight ]
no subject
Is it okay if I ask who that was?
no subject
Alu or Algard Von Palettia. He's my little brother.
no subject
[ speaking as an only child of the
godsaeons ]Did you always fight like that?
no subject
That's the first time I fought with him like that.
no subject
What made you two take up arms?
no subject
Alu hurt my maid and someone under my care in his quest for power. When I went to confront him, I realized I couldn't let him leave.
no subject
He changed his mind at the end, though?
[ it's a blur and he only had the one time to watch it all ]
no subject
He knows what he did was wrong, and has made peace with the fact that we won't be what we wanted to be.
[ does that count ]
no subject
[ pea-brain ]
But it looked painful for you.
no subject
It was super painful! He's still my previous little brother and his magic packed quite the punch.
[ she's thinking of how to put it ]
Have you ever had to make a choice or sacrifice in order to protect those dear to you?
no subject
anis can lead him. ]
There are always sacrifices when you're dealing with Stellarons. I'm the only person I know of who has immunity to their corruption.
[ so go on. he understands loss out of necessity. ]
words at you
