Yet another one. With company.

[Peola lets out an irritated noise as she dragged herself out of the severely battered Regalis Filia. She gives the machine a somewhat irritable grimace at the sight of the smaller damages - most likely from the pin-like projectiles her sister used.]

They just get more and more worse every single time.

[She tiredly makes her way down the gantry before just settling down nearby, palming her face in frustration.]

Uuugh. What am I even complaining about. Just because that jerk and Ourania and their friends showed up doesn't mean its all bad... we beat the Gebians that wanted to wreck everything and I got a good fight out of it...

[Despite this though she feels more than a little...]

SO WHY THE HECK AM I SO ANGRY!?!

[...frustrated. She proceeds to punch a metal pillar next to her hard enough it left an indentation of her fist. She winces and holds her hand. It wasn't in too much pain but the impact stung a little. It was jarring enough to get her attention at least.]



Ow ow ow ow ow!

Day in and day out yes. Sometimes they're a lot ruder, a lot more arrogant or stupid but in the end they're all the same.

[She lets out an irritable sigh.]

If my father thought this was the best way to make me want to stop fighting I think that plan of his backfired.

[abugslife]

You mentioned your brother. What was that about?

[not_a_prize]

Well... the thing is my brother was supposed to be next in line for the throne. At least until my mother fought him and...

It didn't end well for Harunn and father felt he wasn't fit to stay in the line of succession. But he was recovering when I left.

[abugslife]

Your mother is the second worst one I know.

What is his state? When will he recover?

[not_a_prize]

If she's the second I probably don't want to know who the first is...

[Peola looks a little distant now.]

He lost and arm and a leg and ki poisoning... its.. like if your own ki was trying to burn you out because of something someone else did...it just twists inside of you like a whirlwind of fire and pain.

He was getting a little better when I last saw him almost a year and a half ago... but the physicians said it would be years before he has a full recovery.

[abugslife]

You know the first one. You are talking to her.

What will you do if, despite what the medics say, the worst case scenario happens and your brother never recovers?

[not_a_prize]

...Ah... I never considered...

[She clicks her teeth together and looks a little agitated.]

I don't know...

[abugslife]

Can you not pass the throne to your sister?

[not_a_prize]

My father would never accept it. That and Ourania's... not exactly the kind of person who inspires faith in if she's made Queen.

[abugslife]

Monarchy is such a bizarre and impractical system. There is a reason we, and Earth, abandoned it so long ago.

Unless your brother recovers, you will become the new queen. Make sure to know what will you do if that happens.
