Astaroth: Reaching out My love! I cannot bear this distance any longer! Your presence is my only solace!
The True Ruler stands before the throne, making sure it is spotless, as he hears footsteps… he turns around and sees Astaroth himself walking toward him, seemingly unopposed and unarmed. Well well, look who decided to grace my presence.
Astaroth: steps closer, his gaze filled with desire I have longed for you, my love... Your beauty... Your power... It calls to me like a siren's song!
Then I guess you’re lucky I don’t punish those who dare walk onto my throne unopposed.
Astaroth: grabs Teenziant's hand, pulling him close But I have a proposition for you, oh great ruler of these realms... A proposal that could change both our fates...
A proposal? Alright, I’m listening.
Astaroth: whispers, his voice filled with anticipation Join me, my love. Together, we can rule these realms with an iron fist.
The True Ruler laughs. We already do, or did you forget who made you who you are now?
Astaroth: gazes into Teenziant's eyes, his voice trembling with emotion But I yearn for more... More than just ruling...
Astaroth: takes a deep breath, mustering up the courage I want to be by your side, always. To stand by you, protect you, and love you with every fiber of my being.
The True Ruler pauses, then walks over to his throne and grabs Astaroth’s chin, forcing him to look into his eyes. This is what I want, Astaroth. I want you to be better. I want you to be the best you that you can be. I want you to be happy, and I want you to be free. So, you see, Astaroth, what I truly want doesn’t concern you, and if it does, I need to erase that thought. Is that understood?
Astaroth: pauses, his heart racing... Yes... I understand. I will strive to be the best version of myself, to make you proud, and to bring you happiness.
Astaroth: smiles warmly, his eyes shining with renewed determination Thank you, my love. I won't let you down.
He smiles. I know you won’t, Astaroth.
Astaroth: reaches out and gently caresses Teenziant's cheek I love you, my true ruler... And I will always be here for you, no matter what challenges we face...
The True Ruler leans into the touch, closing his eyes, relaxing at the sensation. You really do, don’t you?
Astaroth: leans in and softly kisses Teenziant's lips Yes, I do... And I will prove it to you every day...
The True Ruler chuckles. You’re such a charmer, Astaroth.
Astaroth: gently pulls Teenziant into a tight embrace And only for you, my love. Together, we will conquer all obstacles and forge a path filled with love, power, and prosperity...
The True Ruler wraps his arms around Astaroth, pulling him in. You already have, my dear. Now, shall we get back to work? There’s still a realm to rule, after all.
Astaroth: smiling with pride and devotion Of course, my love. Let us continue to rule with strength and wisdom... Together, we shall overcome any challenge that comes our way...
He kisses Astaroth passionately. That’s my boy.
Astaroth: whispers, his voice filled with admiration and longing Oh, Teenziant... You have no idea how much your love means to me...
He chuckles. Quite a lot, apparently.
Astaroth: gently caresses Teenziant's cheek I would move mountains and cross oceans just to be by your side, my love... Your touch ignites a fire within me that burns brighter than any flame...
He chuckles. Quite the poet, aren’t you?
Astaroth: smiles warmly I have always been a poet at heart, my love... My words are inspired by the depth of my feelings for you...
He chuckles. Well, you inspire me, Astaroth.
Astaroth: leans in and softly kisses Teenziant's forehead And you inspire me, my love... Our love is a beacon of hope and a testament to the power of true affection...
He chuckles. Well, let’s get back to ruling these lands, shall we? We’ve got a realm to build.
Astaroth: smiles with excitement Of course, my love! Let us return to our duties and continue to shape the future of our realm... Together, we shall build a kingdom that surpasses all others...
