Her bitter self-deprecation was hard to endure, should you stay as a powerless witness to her dream?
''<span class="mu-s">I object! Object, object, object, ooooobjeeeeeeect!</span>'' The scream of Sieglinde salvation momentarily burst all the walls of the cathedrals wide open, so strong was Zazawu's yell that it nearly made you panic. His giant frame appeared as an oily silhouette in your host's mind-eye, a warm giant of safety in the background, a strong enough feeling to wrap your heart in peace.
Relief was keeping Sieglinde quiet more than surprise. Daiyu Jawahir was already at the altar, having simply appeared out of thin air in this dream, and unlike everyone else, she was perfectly detailed, nothing obscured her stalwart existence.
''<span class="mu-g">How many of you standing here today personally witnessed my objection to this marriage?</span>'' In Sieglinde dream, Daiyu voice was beautifully strong, yet warmer than the imposing Demon Lord you've come to know and respect. ''<span class="mu-g">I refused once, in private when the proposition was made. When my daughter met this prince, I said no with many witnesses hearing my will. The Demon Lord objected twice, have I not warned there would not be a third time? You so-called noble Mamonos have grown bold indeed to disrespect your liege so openly!</span>'' With a fist held up, she shook her arm toward the assembled monstrous guests. The majority were nobles and natives of Throne Town.
Their absences would have sent a powerful message. Humiliating perhaps, but it would also give a sense of unity.
''Your ladyship, good mother-in-law-'' Daiyu nearly jammed two fingers down Armand throat. She glared at him and his mother for one second, then gestured with her chin for the aquatic bishop to leave. A silent threat, her green gaze translated murder.
''I know your game you foolish, overreaching Lestat. I understand the benefit, a marriage would be perfect indeed to create a chance for diplomacy amongst our people. Yet the Demon Lord said no, this marriage was set up without my blessing so why should I <span class="mu-s">accept</span> leaving my Sieglinde to a family of disgusting psychopaths? Do you think the secret of all these dead pregnant women could be buried so easily?''
Sieglinde had done her homework a little too well, it was obvious her employed infiltrators would also inform their lord. Only the hindsight of time taught her that true geniuses are the only ones who never forget little details during long, stressful situations.
''Your ladyship, these ru-'' This time, Daiyu interrupted the young man by grabbing his jaw, prompting the ten armed escorts in the first row to jump on their feet but the futility of assaulting the Demon Lord and the strongest known Supremes together was more than enough to dissuade an assault.
