She has a question. Is there anything you would die for?

Answer me. I am curious.

Yes.

[doesntneedfixed]

Why?

[thexiaolang]

If that's what it took to keep her safe...

[doesntneedfixed]

A lover then? A friend?

[faintest_memory]

My kingdom...to protect my kingdom, and all of the citizens within it, I would gladly die.

[doesntneedfixed]

You are a Queen, then? Quaint, a form of government - monarchy. Unvoted officials, two usually, with office of all-encompassing power, heritage determines how much power you have.

... Why?

[faintest_memory]

Oh, no, I'm a princess, not a queen...not yet...

But, regardless, I care deeply for my people. They depend on me to take care of them, and I would hate to betray that trust. I want to be able to protect them, or I wouldn't be fit as princess.

Um...so, if I may ask...is there anything you would die for?

[doesntneedfixed]

Of course you can ask... doesn't mean she has an answer thought... Not sure. All jumbled, really, just sort of... Yes. I think I have an answer. Kaylee. I would die for Kaylee. But you see, no power in the 'verse can stop me. So, no need to die.

When you return home, will you be a queen?

.. there have been terrible monarchs in history.

[sheifa]

I do now.

[doesntneedfixed]

Live for it as well.

[sheifa]

I intend to.

What's your name? I'm Sheifa.

[doesntneedfixed]

River. I'm River.

[honoo_no_senshi]

There are things that I have died for.

[doesntneedfixed]

... You're dead? You don't smell dead.

[darkrangerqueen]

I have already died once for my people. I am willing to do it again, but I would rather live for them. They need me.

(ooc: Who she considers her people now are different from the first time. Feel free to have River pick up on that. Also, since I'm never on AIM... here's a thread I commented on.)
