“I don’t want to rule your kingdom. If I don’t have a choice in the matter, then we’ll do it together. I’m not taking your house, or your throne, or any of your other belongings. I didn’t marry you to claim your things. I did it to save my world, the same as you, and now we’re partners. Friends. If that doesn’t work for you, then we need to find a way to coexist separately or break the bond, because I’m not willing to live like the old faeries did.”
