Gaist stood stoically as the Regent stood outside giving another one of his long winded speeches before the Empress addressed the people. Well that was going to change soon he thought. The Empress had always said when they were behind closed doors that she was going to have him killed the day she was made empress and today was that day.<br/><br/>When the doors opened to allow the empress through, he returned the nod she gave him and followed behind at her side, as he always did. He looked the crowd and the assembled representatives over and summed up the chances of someone trying to assassinate the empress. They were pretty low. With all the guards present and everyone standing on the formality of the ceremony meant that no one in their right mind would try it now. Not directly anyway.<br/><br/>He crossed his muscled arms when Eclypsia addressed the people. He looked to the regent and chuckled when Eclypsia mentioned her father's assassination. A grim smile crossed his lips as the pathetic, screaming man was tossed over the balcony. He didn't even have the dignity to face his death in silence. But that's the kind of man he was after all.<br/><br/>When the ceremony was concluded, he tured and followed the empress in turn as she walked back inside. When the doors finally closed and when all but he and the empress were present he looked to her, "It'll be some time before they can scrub him off the walls." he said jokingly.
