[Eridanus exhales softly, and as Regulus reaches for his tea, he does the very same with his coffee mug. He takes a swift pull off it, enjoying the bitter taste as it slides down his throat.

Then he lowers his gaze to the board.]

Yes well, my one wish was to never turn out like him, and in some ways I succeeded. As we discussed, I am away from Eucryphia, which is the best way to keep her from my family's legacy of harm.

I understand it, though.
