Théadan couldn't hide his disappointment in hearing nothing more came with the journals, some sort of word of who or why they had been sent would have been nice. But it was simply not the case, it would have to remain a mystery for the time being, at the very least he would have some of his journals returned to him. The young man was very certain he would be released, but he had not seen Kazim's reaction to him, right now Théadan would have to wait.  The surprises did not stop just yet however, havin recovered from the sight of his journal, the young man revealed one last surprise for him, stating in so casual and matter of fact way, that he seemed to gloss over it as though it should have been obvious all along. This was Sai, Navia's brother. "Sai?!" He murmured, taking a closer look of him, trying to spot some similarities too Navia, their eyes were the same, their noses were a lot alike too. How strange to be face to face with someone so important to Navia, but for her not to be there for the introduction.<br/><br/>Sai insisted on being called Sai rather than Sainan, on account of the nature of his and Navia's relationship. The questions kept coming from Sai however, as he started asking questions about their relationship, and why he would want Navia when there was so many problems for them, even questioning what made Théadan think it was love. He ignored the questions for the moment, intent on getting back around to them, but having to address the fact he was talking to Navia's youngest brother. "I suppose that explains a lot actually." He muttered, thinking of some of what Sai had said, and some of his mannerisms too. "Navia talked a lot about you, and with a lot of pride." Théadan said, recalling how important her family were too her, how excited she was to see them again, and the nerves that came with it. "She's missed you dearly, and seeing you and Yousef again is what I think she's been most looking forward too. If you haven't seen her already, you should go see her the first chance you get."<br/><br/>Théadan went back to leaning against one of the walls, taking his journal and pushing it into one of his pockets for the time being. He'd have to be careful to make sure it didn't get wet while he was here. "I suppose I have even more reason to be open with you, and give the answers to the questions you ask." Before he even knew this was Sai, Théadan had been quite happy to answer Sai's questions, but now he did know, he felt it important to answer as much as he could. First he needed to correct the misguided view that Navia wouldn't mess with him. "For your information, there is nobody on this planet that Navia loves messing with more than me. She wouldn't know what to do with herself if she didn't find ways to tease and provoke me. I think she just finds it funny to see what kind of reaction she can get by being as annoying as possible." Being able to accept and enjoy that side of Navia was probably one of the key parts to their relationship, it was such a large part of what made their relationship so fun, a lot of their games were borne from her need to tease. "Ah, but that's the thing, I do enjoy it. It is very difficult for me not to get caught up in all her games, and try to get my own back."<br/><br/>To answer why he had to be with Navia, why he loved her, Théadan supposed Sainan deserved to hear the whole story. Hopefully Navia would be able to fill in what he missed out when they saw each other again and talked. "When we first met, I was the one who took her from her home." He confessed, his tone apologetic and honest. "I set an ambush to catch her while she tried to escape Vanam, imagine a Mes'Mo'Tanian warrior on the back of the biggest horse you've ever seen, with our nightmarish masks, catching you unarmed in the dead of night." Navia had flinched, but she had remained strong and resolute, turning the tables on him in an instant. "Navia's reaction was outrage at the injustice of what I was doing, there was no fear, just fury. I may have been the one to catch her offguard, but I was the one left stunned and surprised by our first meeting, and I liked her straight away. She had fire and courage, and strength." It was rare and it was precious, and goddess how he wanted to protect it. "We spent a lot of time together in the month it took us to head back to Nygaard, and we grew very close in that time. Once in Nygaard, I couldn't stay away. I wanted to help, and to be with her."<br/><br/>Giving her away in Nygaard was probably the thing he was most ashamed of in his history with Navia. He felt he had failed her and the longings of his own heart. But since that night he snuck into Navia's room, and was discovered by his own family, Théadan had not a single regret. "There's a lot I regret from these passed few years, but I have not regretted a single choice since I chose to leave my home to be with Navia. She saw the best in me, and helped show me I did not have to be the Prince my family wanted me to be, I could be my own self, and be all the better for it." Their relationship had really gone from strength to strength once they had healed their wounds together, and stopped trying to hide their relationship from others. "I was imprisoned by my own family for a week because I chose to be with Navia, now I've been imprisoned by Navia's. But if it means I get to be with her, it's worth it." He shrugged his shoulders at the thought of what others might think of their relationship. "I do not care how frowned upon it is by both our countries, Navia and I, we are meant to be together."
