5th Royal Decree

[solarhussyalert]

Action 747 Partridge Drive

[Lym headed out in the morning, not wanting anything to do with school, and looking at a box with her name on it. Poking it.]

Ok, I got the sun rune, what horrible thing is in you today?

Action Downtown - Bakery

[School is for chumps, chumps who aren't dressed like the Queen of Felenas. Chumps who aren't going to get cookies. She doesn't quite understand the money thing but she's headed for the bakery for something to eat. Eventually she'll get there and peer around.]

Hey! Is this the place where the chef makes cookies?

Phone

[Ok, she's holding it upside down so she's kind of hard to hear]

Hey! Does anyone know anything to do here other than that school thing? Its been kind of really boring here.

Oh, it's not common in my home either! She's the only one. But well... she's lived with me for the last fifteen years, so I don't think that's very out of reach.

[solarhussyalert.livejournal.com]

So is this a literal Goddess, or are you being overly mushy and figurative?

[goddesschosen.livejournal.com]

She's an actual goddess!

We... we actually didn't know about that until a little while ago.

[solarhussyalert.livejournal.com]

[Yeah Alex, you're just getting the look of a 12 year old who is considering calling bullshit on you]

[goddesschosen.livejournal.com]

It's true! I swear!

[As if Alex even knows how to lie well]

[solarhussyalert.livejournal.com]

Well, then I hope for your sake that no one wakes her up to what Goddesses do, cause power corrupts.

[goddesschosen.livejournal.com]

... she was corrupted.

['Sad' doesn't even come close. He looks absolutely crushed]

I was about to save her. We were so close - I was a staircase away! I could see her!

And then... I was here.

[solarhussyalert.livejournal.com]

I... Um... I know that.... Well, Dad could sometimes reach mom before... Well... By reminding her of stuff that she liked before the rune... Uh...

I'm sorry.

[goddesschosen.livejournal.com]

It... it's okay.

I know we'll find a way out somehow. And when I get back, then I can finish what I started.

[solarhussyalert.livejournal.com]

I hope it ends different for you than mom and dad.

[She nods a bit sadly]

[goddesschosen.livejournal.com]

Thank you, Lym.

I'm sorry that I reminded you of something painful.

[solarhussyalert.livejournal.com]

They guy who caused it is dead. Brother killed him. I just kind of wish I was the one who could have.

[goddesschosen.livejournal.com]

If it's any consolation, I killed the person who kidnapped and turned Luna. I'm still not sure how much better I feel for it.

[After all, what's it worth when he has the revenge, but not her?]

[solarhussyalert.livejournal.com]

Technically the guy who killed mom... He's still out there. He helped brother overthrow the mess but... I dunno.

[goddesschosen.livejournal.com]

[Well, he's not sure what else to say, so...]

I'm sorry, Lym.

[solarhussyalert.livejournal.com]

I dunno the whole story. I think the sun rune had taken over mom and she was going pretty crazy but. I'm just a kid and not that nice so he was banished at least. I guess.

[goddesschosen.livejournal.com]

I don't know, you seem nice enough to me.

[solarhussyalert.livejournal.com]

Thank you. But, if I was nice I probably wouldn't have banished him to the north. Other than the Scarlet Empire they aren't much more than a bunch of city states that argue with each other constantly.

[goddesschosen.livejournal.com]

Considering what you probably could have done as queen, I don't think you should be so hard on yourself over a banishment.

[solarhussyalert.livejournal.com]

I guess. I don't really worry about it much, just, I hate that it happened and here there isn't much more than all the time in the world to think about it.

[goddesschosen.livejournal.com]

Well... is there anything happier from home you can focus on?

[solarhussyalert.livejournal.com]

Well, brother and Lyon were going to get married, but.... They're acting like they don't remember it here. Its weird.

[goddesschosen.livejournal.com]

Maybe... they're from different times?

My best friend is here, but he's from a time way ahead of me.

[solarhussyalert.livejournal.com]

That's what Miakis said. AFTER I brought it up to them and they looked at me like I was nuts.

[goddesschosen.livejournal.com]

Like you're nuts?

... so, here they're still in denial?
