"Whether it be pretty or ugly, peacefully or bloody, the Emperor or Empress awakens when they need it. The awakening happens eventually. But, regardless of reason, it is glorious. The magic of the plane shifts, time feels like it halts, a new age seems to begin, all with a single, powerful cry. The roar of a new ruler, ringing throughout the realm. I will never forget her father's cry. Powerful, loud, frighting: enough to kill a small beast if too close. The glory. The majesty of it. That day was triumph incarnate. The tide of war changed with a single, new being. Most only see one, however, I've now been honored to see TWO: the father and the daughter."
