Kirin
that girl is a real crowd pleaser
There were a few hitches in the plan, of course plans were never absolute, too many what if’s to factor. Eventually one gets used to leaving a bit of wiggle room, some cushion to fall on in case you had to pick yourself up. Kirin had no intention of falling hard either, not when the skies were literally the limit. The world was so vast and this was only the beginning. They did not go down easily, he had not expected them to, but they went down all the same- that’s what counted. It was put to vote, a raise of hand, a say “aye” if you were in favor. Once tallied and accounted he was named victor and thus the trivialities of his rule could begin.
It was (for the ischians) quite the blessing that the fae had boomed the finding of new land, their world was growing. He could not have asked for anything more perfect, there could not have been better timing.
He called them away, the two of importance, the once Queen and her advisor of sorts Ashley. There was no need to further amuse himself with the bitterness of the island residents, it didn’t matter, let them spit their bile all they wanted- it changed nothing. Let them leave if they did not like it, what did he care? His rule would grow without them and of course he much preferred to surround himself with followers, rather than naysayers. That’s just what he told them, “Those that do not wish to stay will not be made to, your chance to leave is your own, make of it what you will. All except you of course.”
Oh no, not his spoils of war.
“Ea,” he breathed once away from the brigade, his mellow voice wrong in his devil’s mouth. “I can’t leave you on the throne of course, nor in any such place of power, you understand I’m sure.” He was still, turning to look at them both. “But, that said, someone must stay in my place to oversee my island. I have a number of children, grandchildren that could hold the position but something tells me to be merciful. I’ll catch more flies with honey,” Always out for something, always making threads to the web to benefit himself in some way or other. “You are wanting peace of course, safety for your children, your home. I am not an unreasonable man, though the critics would argue otherwise. I can be swayed to be merciful and forgiving, Ashley..” The sentence drags out, a newly required thoroughness to the world and so his speeches are ever prevalent.
