Oh, empty my heart
There were problems with that statement, much as Seren could appreciate the sense behind it. Interested in his reasoning, she vented her thoughts on the subject. "Will we stop being demigods if Mother never confirmed it to be so, and none would take our word for it? If it was a lie, then I agree it would be bad to keep pretending. But do you really have to deny yourself the title because strangers might get upset? If there is meaning in it for you, then you should just keep being a baron." Still vague on what a baron did, she watched her father for a reaction as they entered the building. Perhaps it was not important. Perhaps it never had been. But she hated the idea that this man might have suppressed some vital part of himself merely to blend in.
Brightening at the notion of inheriting something of his, even if just a temporary lodging, Seren went along down dark corridors in search for the room. She made an effort to be quiet, for the sake of weary dragoons sleeping beyond the doors they passed along the way, yet weighed impatiently back and forth until Ronin could get the door unlocked. Once inside, she looked around once, twice. And was a little... disappointed. It was a perfectly ordinary room. Small, utilitarian and barren of all personality. "Was this really yours?" she asked, unable to quell the doubt. She had expected... well she didn't know. Some mark that screamed 'Ronin was here'.

I've got to make room for this feeling
