[ No denying that it's impressive, as though the sun could bear on them indoors. Though his reaction is more reserved, as ever. ]
What I think is... the disparity of wealth here is ridiculous.
[ Despite being difficult, he does look generally impressed with the room, brushing his fingertips against one of the wall screens in idle curiosity. The room feels warm, inviting even in what should be a desert. ]
[ as he takes a few steps down towards those cushions, leona turns his head and shrugs. he rolls his shoulders before he settles down into one. the beastman takes a seat while pulling out a bottle of water, dripping with condensation as he uncaps it and takes a swig. ]
They got all these resources and they still need us. Kinda crazy, ain't it?
[ as he closes his eyes, he tilts his head. one ear flicks. ]
Ain't ever going to be home. We got all of these kinds of places sealed up 'cause they're considered to be protected sites. There's a hot spring and resort that only the royal family and their guests can go to, but it ain't my kinda place.
Guessin' you've never seen anythin' like this before?
[ He hums in response to that, flat and brief. He does wonder what their whole purpose here is, but it's only a fleeting curiosity—he's not the type to go chasing down answers.
Instead, he takes the room for a moment longer before making his way to the couch too. ]
No. When I traveled, it was usually to observe rare flora. A desert runs a little counter to that.
[ Though there's unique species of plants everywhere. He just didn't get out much. He uses his crutch to balance his weight, easing onto the couch with a question, blunt in its nonchalance. ]
You don't seem all too fond of your station. Or is it resentment that you won't be king?
[ ah, he's just swinging for the fences. well--- leona does deserve a reality check once in a while. it's probably the best that it's coming from nehan.
hey, if he wants to get out once in a while? give leona the right equipment be a properly enchanted broom or possibly borrow a magic carpet from a certain little rich guy, and nehan will be seeing a whole new world. ]
Mostly that. [ he clicks his tongue. ] Pretty much impossible. Thought through hard work and strength alone I would've been the right choice. But no.
[ leona frowns, leans further back. ]
Survival of the fittest but the strong can still help out those who need it. Yet here I am with all that power and then some. All the ideas in the world to make life better but I get shut down for bein' the prince and not the king. Crazy.
