A call to honor.

[Did I do that?]

The sky darkens across Delphina, with a flurry of snowflakes dashing by on the diagonal and accompanied by a chilly, biting wind. Poor sight and light quality, as well as snow shifts and drifts, concealed the surrounding area. Flakes accumulate easily on hair and... The plaza is filled with fresh, crisp air, followed by a swarm of black butterflies, howling, whistling wind, and the never-ending sound of drums thumping in the distance. A single message was given to Camino de Caewynn.
         

I've taken dishonor in place of honor, hatred in place of love, and in the midst of it all, I've questioned myself numerous times: which is worse... Living as a monster or dying as an honorable man?

        

Do you recall the youngster wailing in Delphina's streets all those years ago? Covered with his father's blood. What a memory.

        

I've been built and shattered by wills that were never mine, and I've been assigned a burden I didn't desire. You portrayed a life that I despise.

      

Now I'm at Delphina's gates, refusing to compromise; none of the things I was supposed to be appealed to me. The clean throne, the lovely crown, the respectable title, a safe future, a dignified life for a decent death. It first made me sick, then broke me...

     

Haunted me.

     

Finally bringing me back to you. Call it what you want, call me a brat influenced by his emotions, but I've come to take all you've stolen from me, so you may understand what it's like to live the life you gave me, to feel the anger that burns deep inside me.

      

I am waiting for you at Delphina's gates, an honorable battle in which no one will meddle, only you and me for the sake of Delphina as the real Heir, I Astra Okabe.

     

Gala'shi vel somni au, Camino.

    

[Astra Okabe]
