'My lady, the Emperor has called for an emergency meeting on state affairs and your presence is required in the meeting.'

You, along with groups of officials and nobles stand in the meeting room, the Emperor sitting on his throne at the end of a long carpet. The atmosphere is so thick you could cut it with the knife. It was very rarely that the Emperor would declare an emergency meeting state of affairs, especially now during peaceful times. You observe you childhood friend, Sovieshu's face, trying to decide whether you are to view him as the Emperor, or as the stubborn little child you grew up with.

Perhaps he is neither. Perhaps, he has gone through so much change that has has become a stranger to both you and Navier. It was strange, having that realization dawn upon you. All this time you've been dealing with him as if he was the same person as back then, but now you think it's time to deal with his tomfoolery the way it needs to be dealt with. 

Then the doors open, revealing the person the whole room had been guiltily anticipating for.

Navier walks down the aisle, an eerie silence filling the atmosphere.

It takes everything within you to keep yourself from stepping out and starting an act of treason, but you must hold back because Navier has a plan much better and safer than yours.

Then, the high priest enters the room.

"I'm going to divorce Empress Navier." The Emperor declares, standing from his seat and greeting the high priest without a single pause.

A commotion starts, loud and clear protests from the nobles are heard. Of course there would be protests, Empress Navier was a much fitter Empress than Rashta, who was dumb and crusty. She had no knowledge at all, no experience in ruling not even a small household. 

"It has already been decided."

"but..!"

The topic is diverted immediately, the meeting continuing on for a few hours before they begin talking about the divorce once more.

Once it finishes, Navier stands, being the first to leave the room as everyone in the courtroom stares in what seemed to be sadness and doubt.

Would the Empire really last without her?

You follow after her shortly, not uttering a word and staying by her side, pace matching hers.

By the corner of the hallway, the reason of the divorce steps out, a pitying look on her face.

Approaching the soon-to-be ex Empress, Rashta holds a hand to her chest, "It wasn't kind of his Majesty to put you through this in front of so many people..Although your Majesty hates me, I don't hate your Majesty."

Tears start to fill her eyes, "I will remember you even when you're gone from the palace, but you don't have to remember me."

Navier doesn't respond and walks away in silence.

You stay behind, posture towering Rashta's smaller frame.

You stare her down, watching her pathetic eyes bolt from left to right in fear and anxiety. She had a baby with her, you wouldn't dare hurt her..right? Her hands instinctively wrap around her belly, form cowering before you.
