☀️ Arselia and Akonia

- Your Excellency! - Beata had already switched to addressing Klin, cheerfully, and she pronounced his new title with some sadistic pleasure. - Why didn't you say that you hadn't been exactly in your prime all this time? Garret, for example, is an alien... - Beata paused because Garret's coming out had been organized in front of everyone, but not all those present were aware of the status of Erefir and, presumably, Alaria, but Klin could very well guess what other names she wanted to mention.

—I hope I won't have to get used to this... —the country bumpkin grimaced good-naturedly at the new title. —However, you are right, it wasn't very friendly of me to hide my cursed existence from you. Especially if, one day, —who knows—I were to lose my mind or something. However, I suppose my fears were quite understandable to you, at least judging by the initial reaction of the people—everyone has their own dark spots in their soul, but as long as their life path remains bright, I respect everyone's right to have them, as well as my own. Nevertheless, please forgive me for hiding my potentially dangerous nature from you all this time.
