ROANA
Who is that girl I see
Staring straight back at me?
Roana smirked over at him. "Well if any can redeem the Outlander Whore in the eyes of the people it's you." she said with a light laugh. Frankly, she hoped it would be enough for the people that she was "taking orders" from Ronin. That she wasn't acting on her own will might be enough to appease them. At least she hoped it would be.Staring straight back at me?
When he said Safrin might support them, that was a relief. It wasn't certain but she did know that he was close with the goddess...and clearly the old gods were not fond of the Voice so she hoped it'd be an easy sell. "Well we will have you back up into everyone's lovable beefcake in no time." she said lightly with a laugh. Ronin had many friends, because he was so charming - the rogue knight in shining armor sort. That he knew nothing of the Launceleyn pact though did not surprise her and she shook her head. "I only know it because my cousin married into that family." she said.
"Basically, the first king of Northwind saw the Launceleyn's as a threat to his power and the kingdom. And somehow he convinced their founding head to bind them all in an oath to serve the king indefinitely, literally making it impossible for them to revolt against the crown's will, and thereby the people. It wasn't perfect but... if the Voice really is just a superpowered mage gone rogue...I should think any of the old gods either on their own or in concert capable of binding the Voice in this manner. Then there is no need to kill every Ascended, there is no need to try and kill the unkillable, no need to trap innocents in a bubble, and she would be kept in check by the other gods."
Why is my reflection someone
