There's something I'd like to discuss.

Suppose that you were betrothed to another in your own world. That person tells you that they are more than comfortable with you having dalliances as long as they are the sole possessor of your heart, and you accept these terms.

And then you're spirited off to this place without them.

The only times I recall connecting to others on a more intimate level, I was under the influence of the Iris moon, but it is cowardice to say that I shouldn't be blamed for not letting them know this earlier.

Do I even owe an explanation to anyone else here, if I've held up my terms of the agreement to my betrothed?

... Honestly, this comes across as them being more than a little possessive of you in a way I find disconcerting to say the least?

I mean, marriage and all that, sure, but the idea of not being 'x' close to anyone else... It seems like something where the idea of being away from them at all isn't something they were expecting for.

Deeply and concerningly Lawful, is all...

I understand that such terms are too constraining for some, but I happen to find them acceptable.

I do not expect different from a being so inclined to the forces of Law, anyway.

... Mmm. I guess? I feel like such constraints are still kind of disturbing, but that's your call to make.

Open communication's certainly a better choice than trying to hide your motives.

Just as I suspected, then.

I fear some of my suitors here may fear the prospect of dealing with her, but that's just an inevitability.

Powerful-minded person, then?

And what did you suspect?

[necroyalty]

Not so much powerful-minded as power itself, really.

But I feared that the more I try to explain things to people, the more my explanations raise further questions.

[have_hat_will_travel]

... Yeah that's scary stuff to deal with if it's "power itself", that to me implies like a god?

So yeah. That'd absolutely spark further questions.

[necroyalty]

Much as they fancy themselves one, not quite.

And that brings up a lot of other options.

[ Demon lords, archdevils, a fucking dragon...

It's a big fucking dragon. ]

[have_hat_will_travel]

... Which in turn only leads to more questions, because 'not quite' is still really, really strong...

[necroyalty]

Dragon.

Not an unusually old or powerful one, compared to those of legend, but that's not saying much.

[have_hat_will_travel]

I shalt not meddle in the affairs of dragons, for I art crunchy and good with ketchup.

[necroyalty]

My point exactly.

[have_hat_will_travel]

Pardon my caution on getting too close, to say the least.

[Keep in mind, Pidonus can face quite a few ranks of dragon easily. She's STILL scared of them.]
