Ras nodded to Ophidian and smiled. “We’ll discuss this later, but I’ll sit down with Eru and Yinxha later and talk it out. And I’m not terribly worried about Sharindia, I have all these other women to take care of so I’m willing to let Sharindia rest as much as she can.” He returned the kiss and scooped Amere off his shoulder to carry her. “Sounds like a plan.” He nodded to Ophidian again and headed back to the tables.<br/><br/><span style="color: #b30000">“Elune is a shitty and impulsive woman, always quick to blame others for her mistakes and failures.

He blamed himself for it even though his body was near destroyed and he was in Elune’s realm recovering. Elune blamed him too, and she was the one holding him when it happened.”</span><div class="messageTextEndMarker"> </div>
