*WHAT?!* I really didn't know Zuo was THIS young, I thought he was like, 20-23, and since I remember Amiya being 16 in 1098(?), this really caught me by surprise. I really thought my homeboy was older, so this kinda got into the 'what' territory for me. I do like this ship, though. It's unexpected, but in the good way, where It exercises my neurons to figure out how it's going to play out (I think Amiya is top somehow, but most of the time they are like the common anime couple where both are embarrassed of doing anything) But now I made my research, and looks like Amiya is 19 in 'Here A People Sows', and Zuo Le is apparently also 19, or MAYBE 18, so... wow. He just looks so much older than he is, and our little donki grew up too fast...
Meanwhile, in Kazdel. A gathering of the Royal Court is underway to discuss urgent news recently received from Rhodes Island. Within the grand chamber, illuminated by the eerie glow of crimson lamps, sit Theresis, Nezzsalem, Duq'arael, and Damazti Cluster. Duq'arael: (leaning back in his chair, swirling a goblet of dark crimson liquid) Pray, tell what this is about? It had best be worth my time; I was quite enjoying my solitude before this summons. Nezzsalem: (folding his arms) I share the vampire's sentiment. What news could warrant interrupting us? Damazti Cluster: (their fragmented voice resonating) My fragment, which I placed as covert agents among Rhodes Island’s operators, have uncovered... peculiar information. Theresis: (straightening in his seat, brow furrowing) Peculiar? Do elaborate. Damazti Cluster: (turning to face the group) One of my infiltrators-disguised as a lowly, unassuming operator-reports that the Sarkaz King is in... a romantic relationship with a member of Rhodes Island. Theresis: (blinking in disbelief) I’m sorry, what? Nezzsalem: (snorting) That sounds absurd. The King? Entangled with someone from Rhodes Island? Surely your fragment is mistaken. Damazti Cluster: (firmly) My fragment do not relay falsehoods, Nezzsalem. The operator, however unlikely it seems, might possibly be the Sarkaz King's future consort. Duq'arael: (leaning forward now, interest piqued) Well, well. How... intriguing. A king involved in such a scandalous affair. Tell me, who is this individual? Damazti Cluster: The operator's identity... is known. My fragment have confirmed it. However, the revelation is... unusual. Theresis: (narrowing his eyes) Speak plainly, Damazti. Who is it? Damazti Cluster: (hesitating, their voice low) The operator is named Zuo Le. He is a Sui Regulator-a Phidia. Nezzsalem: (eyes widening, his tone sharp) A Phidia? You mean to say the King has bound herself to a non-Sarkaz? This is beyond absurd-it’s a disgrace! Duq'arael: (slamming his goblet onto the table, the liquid spilling) A Phidia?! That pitiful, serpentine race? And not even one of notable stature, but a mere Regulator? This is intolerable! A Sarkaz King lowering herself to such filth? Theresis: (his voice steady, cutting through the outrage) Enough. Fury without thought serves no purpose here. Damazti, explain. How certain are your fragment of this information? Damazti Cluster: Completely certain. The Doctor of Rhodes Island just announced the news and approved of their relationship in a meeting earlier today. Both the Doctor and Dame Kal'tsit have officially sanctioned it. Duq'arael: (slamming his fist onto the table) Kal'tsit approved this? That meddling wretch dares to support such a disgraceful union? She has always stuck her nose into matters that don’t concern her, but this... this is beyond comprehension. Nezzsalem: (clenching his fists, venom in his voice) This is an affront to the Sarkaz people. The King, supposed to lead and preserve the strength of our race, entangled with an outsider-a Phidia, no less! How dare she spit on our pride? Duq'arael: (his fangs bared, his voice dripping with malice) This is more than an affront; it is betrayal. To share her heart with a non-Sarkaz weakling-she has betrayed the black crown, the very symbol of Sarkaz King. Were she before me now, I’d drain her dry to rid us of this shame. Theresis: (calm but cold) Control yourselves. Emotional outbursts will not undo what has already transpired. Instead, consider what this revelation offers us. Nezzsalem: (seething) Offers us? What could this insult possibly offer? Theresis: (leaning forward, his gaze piercing) Leverage. The King’s bond with Zuo Le is a vulnerability. A King who loves is a King who hesitates. And a King who loves an outsider... is a King who risks alienating her own people. This weakness can be turned into an advantage. Duq'arael: (still visibly enraged, but his tone softens slightly) You mean... to exploit this? To use her affection for the Phidia against her? Theresis: Precisely. If we can confirm the depth of this relationship, we can sow discord. Duq'arael: (wondering a bit then a wicked grin spreading across his face) Yes... yes, I see it now. Let the King taste the fragility of her affections. Let her watch as the very bond she cherishes becomes the weapon that brings her to ruin. Nezzsalem: (his fury giving way to calculation) The people will rise against her when they see her weakness. A King who cannot uphold the pride of the Sarkaz has no right to rule. Theresis: (standing, his voice commanding) Then it is decided. Damazti, continue to monitor Zuo Le and the King. Observe their interactions and find the cracks we can exploit. Nezzsalem, Duq'arael-prepare the seeds of dissent. When the time comes, we will strike, and this "love" will become the King's undoing. Duq'arael: (raising his goblet once more, a sinister gleam in his eyes) To the downfall of a foolish King... and the rise of the Royal Court. Nezzsalem: (his tone cold and resolute) Let the Phidia serve as the catalyst. When the King falls, none will dare question the Royal Court. Well, this is just one of the many possibilities if Amiya, the Sarkaz King, and Zuo Le were to end up together. One thing is certain... the Royal Court won’t sit idly by and watch it unfold without interference. But then again... our little caulus has grown up now...
*Back at the Rhodes Island landship. In an undisclosed section.* [???]: “So… Seems this lord of Fiends has a relationship going… This could make things complicated for us…” [Allied Soldier 1]: “How exactly sir? I don’t quite follow.” [???]: “It’s quite simple really. We know of those who wish to usurp the rightful leader of the Sarkaz. And we know the royal court will go to any lengths to achieve this. Double our patrols. Keep a close eye on EVERYONE!” [“Allied” Soldier]: “What’s to say we should interve-“ *Bullet fired at the impersonator* [???]: “Your fancy tricks may work on Rhodes Island. But it won’t fool me or my men. We’ve faced many foes that use False Flag tactics. We can see through any disguise. Tell your master this simple message for me will you?” [Damantzi Cluster Fragment]: “Alright fine! What’s the message?” [???]: “Tell that absolute coward that calls himself Theresis to come and face me personally. Tell him if he doesn’t then it just shows how weak and incapable he really is. Hell. TELL ALL OF THEM! WE’RE WAITING FOR THEM! AND WE ARE READY FOR A WAR!”
For those who are wondering like me, this ship started in the 4.5 Anniversary stream at exactly 40:54. And I have to say, Amiya's little chuckle after calling Zuo Le handsome is SO flirty I got whiplash. My boy is about to enter the family. We have: Ancient Cat, Man, and Originium Goddess. Then, a previous King of Sarkaz, a merc trio, and Ascalon, oh, and also a Savage. That's just the immediate family, btw. This guy got LUCKY
Doc and Ray is neutral, GG - Red has some vigilance, because Reunion. It used to be Rhodes Island's biggest enemy. However, since GG and Red had a child together, this vigilance is somewhat relaxed now.
@@arknightsstoryterminal in that case,wanna see GG/Red and Doc/Ray children. Especially,what we will have in product of love between earthling and terran)
At least this ship is not as cracked as Mlynar and Penance which are basically from memes. Though, this ship started after Amiya said Zoe Le is quite handsome and they are not even related in the lore. In my opinion, this ship is kinda meh. I like the kind of ship like Noir and Yato more because that ship make more sense
this ship is weird bc someone in HG is definitely shipping them, they both got paired up in the official Lawson China collab and the Spring Gala illustration
