I'll Never Know [Malleus]

The freshly minted King arrived in short order. Ashiel was as cheerful as ever and Malleus was pleased to see that authority had yet to take that from him. Power and responsibility seemed to change a person over time. Sometimes for better and sometimes for worse, and only time would tell which way Ashiel went, but Malleus was confident his cousin was destined for the former. However the young King changed, hopefully he wouldn't lose his good humor. Hoping to put his cousin's mind at ease, Malleus was quick to reassure him, "Oh, yes, everything is alright with father and the Risen Empire. I..." He smiled softly, the gesture a mix of an apology and happiness. "I missed the challenge and because of that, haven't had a chance to congratulate you on your success." |
