Ren's heart clenched, as did her hand against Gareth's. Oh no. Oh no. She had never wondered. Just assumed that somewhere there was a succubus, maybe with an old wizard, since wizards could get pretty old. She'd never been the 'take her home to meet the folks' type and never would be, so she hadn't wondered at all.
"I... I'm sorry," she said, which was wholly inadequate. But she didn't want to say any of the other racing thoughts in her mind, such as 'wasn't the old King an absolute nightmare' and 'how sure are we that's what happened' and 'if I got a shit trial under the current administration I have my doubts about the previous judicial system in this country'. Because none of that mattered. What mattered is Gareth had been orphaned, stuffed in the King's Guard, and probably hadn't fared one little bit better than she had.
"If it helps any," she added weakly. "The King ate my dad. S'not the same. But. Y'know." She pumped her fist slightly, with a strained grin. "Woo. Team tragic orphans!"
She narrowed her eyes, turning back away to consider this new information. Mm. Right. Of course. Yep. Right. Of course. Yeah. Okay. Yep. Yeah. That seemed about right.
"...There is a chance," she said finally. "That Colin is a real fuckin' piece of shit, the King was not plannin' on killin' me tomorrow, an' I set off a rat time bomb in th' castle for no reason. Er. Metaphorical bomb," she added quickly, for clarification. "Literal rats. So, so many rats. Oh man. Ohhhh man."
Mmm. What were the chances the King would take the whole 'lied to and betrayed by an evil man, no one caught it' thing under consideration, when he already wanted to kill her, and also her actions had rats everywhere for a whole blizzard and also she'd gotten Gareth almost killed.
Not great. Not! Great.
"...Fuck," she announced, to the room at large.
