[He smiled at that.]

That reminds me of my nephew and my niece - two of the kindest souls you could ever meet. I am honestly surprised they came from our family at all, honestly.

[takeabow]

Oh, yeah? It's a wonder.

[tallasaking]

Hah! [He smirked at her.] You are not wrong though.

[takeabow]

What are their names?

[tallasaking]

Mycella, and Tommen. [He looks wistful.] Sweet children. Did not at all deserve their parents or their older brother.

[takeabow]

Sounds like a story.

[tallasaking]

....Sometimes my family feels like a story. A horrible story, filled with bad witches and evil kings.

[takeabow]

It happens like that, huh. Maybe that's why we're here.

[tallasaking]

To tell another story? Perhaps. Although I have a fear this is another dark fairy tale.

[takeabow]

Maybe they find it entertaining.

Remember, people from my world love to watch kids kill each other.

[tallasaking]

The amount of violence that people find entertaining is truly disturbing ...

[takeabow]

Yeah, it is. I've always known it was wrong, but I didn't realize how strange it was to other people.

[tallasaking]

Well, you have to remember all of our cultures can be, in one way or another, baffling to the other person. For example, my people ride on horseback at one another with giant pointed sticks.

[takeabow]

That does seem a bit odd, yes.

[tallasaking]

Well, at least we can all be barbaric in our own worlds, and that means we can be just as humane.

[takeabow]

I hope so.

[tallasaking]

As do I, my dear Nova. So do I.
