... So what you're saying is no one knows, at least when it comes to that Emperor of yours. [ mystewious. ]

I have met some people who really, really like hiding their good parts, what can I say?

He's the oldest and most powerful of us all. It's not like we can just question him!

[haha. anyway.]

...that's too bad. I hope you're meeting more people here who don't keep them hidden so well.

Why not? Age and power doesn't mean you can't answer questions.

[ haha... ha ]

Aside from the whole murdering thing? I'd say my opinions of most people here are on the positive side. I'm sure some of them might reverse that, but for now it could be worse.

Most wouldn't dare! And I'd be in for a year-long lecture if I tried to, I'm sure. I can hear my brother now! Qingxuan, mind your manners, that's the Heavenly Emperor, you'll bring dishonor to our name, blah, blah...

[she looks cheery enough as she says this, though, waving a hand.]

I'm hoping that now that we've been rid of some of the more volatile personalities, things will be a little more peaceful! ...although that's probably unlikely, huh.

... Okay, buuuut that still doesn't answer why the most powerful person there with all the knowledge can't answer a question.

[ just saying. ]

[ LOOKS AT THE DEATH ANNOUNCEMENT ] Maybe...? We won't know until the end of the week.
