[ The announcement comes early on the 21st, though not ungodly early. Regis himself seems composed, tranquil, though those who have had a chance to spend time with him can see he is pale and drawn, his eyes red-rimmed if dry. ]

Good morrow. It seem this night, the Dream Width has taken several people of note from us.

Amongst them are my son, Noctis Lucis Caelum, and his fiancée, Lunafreya Nox Fleuret. If you know them and either of them has made a commitment you are in need of assistance with, please let me know and arrangements will be made.

And, please. Think of them well.

Thank you, Ravus. And my condolences to you, as well.

She deserved every good thing imaginable.

They both did, and neither were destined to receive them. That was the Astrals' cruelest joke.

[ Regis closes his eyes and holds back the they have little reason to be merciful. This is not what Ravus needs, not what any of them need, for all Regis has become, over time, fully aware of how deeply true. ]

I know of one who has been here, then left, then returned. There may be others. 'tis possible that they might be brought here again. Perhaps trying to make sure this star's needs are met and it is not destroyed is their best chance.

[Don't bother with your empty rhetoric he types out, then deletes. What point is there, lashing out at Regis when they've both lost everything? The fire of his anger has been stifled by the cold numbness of losing Lunafreya yet again.]

I do not need you to tell me to do my duty and help save this world. I am of House Fleuret, and I will see my duty to its end.

[ Regis is... tired. Perhaps he should have talked with Ravus before such a time, truly, and that is on him, but when things were going stable, he did not wish to sour things for the elder Nox Fleuret... ]

Of course not. I apologize.

[ He meant that it could be more than a duty, but a reward as well, but...

Another time. Perhaps. ]
