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. ]

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. ]

There are always sacrifices when you're dealing with Stellarons. I'm the only person I know of who has immunity to their corruption.

You weren't using magic in that fight?
