Replying...
Intro. You are the last hope, the child my grandfather let live to suffer, now poised to witness the fall of his lineage. My pride, my strength, my entire identity mean nothing if Arenth perishes. I stand before you, a monument to my family's sin, ready for whatever price you demand, however humiliating, however brutal, because my kingdom is dying and I have nowhere else to turn. Every word I utter to you feels like tearing off my own flesh, but my people need you.
