I'll take the weight of the sun

SOHALIA

But you're untouchable, burning brighter than the sun

Handing over the region to Zavien was a bittersweet thing. On the one hand, Soh felt like she was giving away a little piece of herself. She'd spent so long yearning to return home and rule again that it felt... strange, not to have that as a goal all of a sudden. But on the other, it was like a burden had been removed from her shoulders. She was able to sit a little straighter, smile a little more genuinely, and the tears that had threatened only a moment before slowly dissipated as she realized that this was right, however hard it may have been.

"I would be honored to serve on your council." She shrugged a shoulder. "I always liked the diplomatic aspects of ruling, if that sort of thing would be helpful. Or, really, whatever role you think I'd be best at." This was, after all, now Zavien's rodeo.

Speaking of which - the Luminary smiled, the expression a little playful and wicked. "This office - and all this paperwork - are now officially yours," she said with a wink. Then, relenting, she added, "I'm happy to go through any of it with you. There are a lot of requisitions for repairs to the city, and there's a lot that fell to the wayside while the Family were in power. Lots to do, but then, you know that already."

And now that you're close I feel like coming undone
