[Nyx nods in regards to the Ring. It's not like it's his, anyway.]
King Regis knew they would never sign. He did it anyway, to attract all the attention to the city instead of to you. [A beat.] The Princess was kidnapped the day of the treaty. I don't know if the Nifs expected us to find her, or if they expected anyone to figure out how many of the Glaive had been bought out by them. By the end, I think it was just me with the Lucian crown. Everyone else was dead or defected. The Princess put up a fight of her own, I'll give her that. She damn well near killed us both on the way back to the city just so the Nifs wouldn't get the Ring or be able to use her powers.
[Throwing herself out of a falling airship, just to prove herself free, just to avoid the Empire getting the power they so wanted? He probably aged ten years in those two seconds she was in free-fall. If he'd had more time, he probably would've scolded her even more than he already had.]
