[well. she has a hand over his mouth, so he doesn't say anything, but—
she will get a memory that starts with the sound of an explosion, going on until he meets an unusual creature (6:59 to 9:32). there'll be a sinking, despairing feeling when the aforementioned monster gives him the information he asked for in the end.]
It was all just a misunderstanding. Well - no, okay, the part about the war in the past and all the bloodshed and everything was not a misunderstanding, my dad is seriously the worst. [...] Uh, was the worst.
[he seems very unbothered by that past tense, at least. anyways.]
But the part about the prophecy, and the whole forest overtaking the world of men thing - it didn't turn out the way we thought. It was okay.
Okay, so like... [he sighs.] Backstory! It was this whole thing. So, like the huge creepy spider monster was saying, Amir and I... Our dads fought this huge war right after we were born. One thing led to another, the earth itself cursed them, then a huge, evil forest started spreading over both of our kingdoms. So we knew that would keep happening unless we fulfilled the prophecy, and because of the war they had started and the way it was worded, everyone kind of assumed that one kingdom rising meant - one of us beating the other in combat in a very final way.
[this lore...... but he just kind of sighs after that, frowning.]
But that was stupid, and wrong, and everyone had just been interpreting it in a really incorrect way. It turned out not to be about one kingdom winning, or conquering, or anything like that, it was about... unity. About rising together, not one rising over the other.
Depending on how long we're stuck here, the entirety of your engagement period might pass before you get back. So, you should get married as soon as you return.
It's a city in the United States. It's known for all kinds of things, but like, quick weddings are one of them! You can have a wedding ceremony ready to go in, like, an hour.
