It didn't keep me safe, like you told me that it would
So come on tear me wide open
His concubine has just announced...
She's pregnant.
On the twenty-sixth day of Christmas, moonie gave to me,
my husband's concubine scheming a pregnancy♥
It was something he swore he'd never do... and yet...

But I prefer angst, and I prefer working things out on my own terms in my roleplays. Which means I don't make ALTs where the character regrets anything or gets "whats coming to them" because I like stories to be open ended. While you might want Ranier to suffer, others might want to go for redemption.
