I've been thinking about this decision we're left to make about Morgana Drummond. Sheesh, talk about a toughie, right? I mean, why NOT kill Drummond dead? Sounds easy-peasy to me! Dorchacht's Coven is even preparing the pyre and everything. Yay, fire!

[Henry busts out in a raucous laugh.]

You have to admire that initiative. Oh, by the by, you can't resurrect bones without the body stuffs, I guess. Reanimation ONLY. Trust me on that.

So anyway, they say they're gonna seal away her ashes. But I can't help but wonder if there's reeeeally any way to guarantee that she won't be resurrected after we burn her to bones at the stake. Imagine how awesome it'd be, facing off against an UNDEAD Drummond, revived by her necromancer lackeys! Nya ha ha! Guess we'd better hope that pile of ashes doesn't end up in the wrong hands, huh?

Who are you guys gonna side with? Dorchacht's death sentence, or Aefenglom's curious Coven?

[ her frown is... nearly audible. she doesn't approve of how excited this guy sounds about all of this. ]

Leaving her alive has already backfired once. [ she might not have been here when the initial revolution happened, but she knows enough. ] We ought to cut the head from the snake. Revolutions die in the cradle with anything less.

[Jin Guangyao is already feeling a bit sensitive due to various events, and has never been too fond of his transformation into a naga to begin with. So it's with a faintly plaintive, embarrassed smile that he turns on video, all-too obvious in his transformation with a few scattered tan scales on his cheeks and forehead and slit yellow eyes.]

Please pardon my interjection but, is such a turn of phrase really so necessary?

[Come on, give him a break here.]

[ oh. right. naga.

she sees what she's done wrong here.

byleth turns on the video and smiles a bit awkwardly. ]

Point taken. Apologies—I might have phrased that better.

[ yes, she's advocating someone's death here, but that doesn't excuse careless words!! ]

I understand. There are some things that take some time to adjust to, in this world.

[Like turning into a snake! Thanks, he hates it still. But he can at least make an effort to sound pleasant despite it.]

[There's a lot to disapprove of about Henry...]

Oh heck yeah! A decapitation, THEN burning her at the stake?! Now you're talking. Count me in! Nya ha ha! [He sounds like he's a kid getting excited in the middle of a candy store...] If the necromancers get their withered, death-defying claws on her ashes, maybe she'll come back as a headless Risen! How neat would that be?

Uh.

[ byleth actually has... no idea what to say to that. if he'd stopped sooner she might have just clarified that it was a metaphor, but— ]

Are you feeling well?

Huh? Yeah, I'm fine. Is it something I said?

[Hmm, or maybe it's the quality of his voice. Henry has no idea. Then again, this isn't too unfamiliar of a reply to him...]
