[The inflammatory comment stirs up something fierce and terrible in Regis. It stirs up an emotion that feels like something close to both hatred and grief. Aulea's death lingers upon his conscious even after twenty so years. You never forget your first love and she was the love of his life. Even now he still wears his wedding band, still married to her even in death. For this shallow worm of a monster to speak so callously is almost enough to wish this fool dead.

However, Regis is the better man. Unlike the Count, Regis comes from good stock. The Caelum line are kings not mere paupers dressed as kings. They rule as they live with truth and justice at their side. As a descendant of King Somnus the Founding King, Regis will not be moved to blind wrath.]

Unlike you, I would've cherished every moment she was here and commit them all to memory. [He replies after a moment of silence.] I would've cherished the sound of her laughter, her smile and her grace.

I would've felt blessed to see her again and counted myself lucky to be reunited even if it was for a day.

[His voice wavers some but he forces the emotions away.]

[Regis leans into the screen and whispers the following.]

That is your own damn fault.
