Feed Them On Your Dreams

The Emperor is dying; Seien talks with both his fathers. Drama with Angst, I-4 (Significant Novel Spoilers)

Seien's anger made his voice a growl. "You spent years and years fighting to reunify the country, to break the power of the great clans until imperial law ruled everywhere again." His control slipped and he slammed a hand against the wall. "And you almost lost it all just because you ignored what was happening in your own inner courts! Why?!"

Senka was rather an idiot, and Shouka is /totally/ cool! *loves on him*

One of the recent side stories dealt with Shouka's background. The deal seems to have been that he had to kill his granny himself, or else the Emperor would do it and take anyone else who got in the way, too. *shudders*

*grins* Definitely a lotta shit flying. But it will probably build up slowly.

Was that in one of kagedreams's posts? It sounds familiar, but I don't recall exactly . . .

Yeah, one of the fairly recent ones, if I recall correctly. *sighs* I /really/ want better functions for annotating memories; it would make it so much easier to keep track of these things.
