>>>>><<<<<The Rex, having won his position through both the fortune of his bloodline and the strength of his body and will, could not be better suited for his role in society. He is peerless amongst the warrior-priests, trained in the martial and arcane might of his people, knowledgeable about his people's history, an adept diplomat and with many friends amongst the community leaders of not only Anguia, but also Sylvia, Taurica and Harenae. He enjoys the company of the dozen dragons that live about the palace, and the wisdom of the crimson serpent Asclepius and his five disciples Claudia, Augusta, Julia, Aurelia and Octavia.
Yet he finds himself growing bored. Matches in the grand arena of Harenae do little to move him, nor song or story.
This is why when news reaches him of this strange warden upon the isle, he wishes to see this girl and her magic for himself. But unlike any Rex in history before him, he decides to visit the island himself.
The decision is controversial---the island is meant only for exiles and the wardens who watch over them. Rumors have continually circled in hushed tones in regards to the strange dragon-bred people who live upon the isle ever since they appeared in public last age. Stories of strange rites and depraved acts between man and dragon, things that should not be. The boldest even claim the island should be purged before it becomes a problem, echoing objecting sentiments that were raised in ages past when the 11th Regina volunteered to send herself and her kin into exile.
The seers, heads of the royal guard, and foremost warrior-priests and advisors to the throne tell him he should not go. The island is not meant for royalty. The Rex finds himself growing obstinate in the face of these denials; he should be able to go if he so pleases. The fact that no other Rex has been to this island makes him want to go all the more, and the denials only embolden him. Even so, his advisors caution that if he so desires to see this girl, then have her come to the capital instead.
Does he travel to the Isle of Exile, or does he send for the girl to come to the mainland?
