Ah, Easter. The celebration of the rise of our Lord Jesus, and a time for new beginnings. It strikes me even now in my, aha, jaded age as incredible that Jesus Christ could have returned from the dead after a death as excruciating as crucifixion--let alone wanted to. It serves as a poignant reminder of the difference between god and man that Lord ( Read more... )

I am sorry if I treated you rudely, Sir Curtiss; certainly I meant no ill will.

The service was quite splendid, was it not?

[ It's absolutely fine with me. XDD I don't mind it at all, and it is consistent, so... ]

That's quite all right, Queen Ilyssa. May I take your words to mean that your brief lapse in manners was due to thoughts on other matters, then?

It was indeed, Your Highess. I was rather partial to the part on forgiveness; usually I find such sermons delivered weakly, but I felt quite receptive to that one. That Father is quite moving.

The sermons are very beautiful. Easter is very inspiring to me; forgiveness is such a wonderful thing.

If only...

As you wish, Your Highness.

It certainly is--although I think that it's often regarded to be more wonderful in theory than in practice.

I think it is wonderful to be forgiven no matter what. But I suppose sometimes it is required to keep an iron hand; especially when it concerns loathsome things such as politics.

Sadly, Highness, while it is nice to be forgiven, forgiving others is something that tends to come far less easily to humans. "To forgive, divine," and so on. But I'm sure you are well aware of this, Queen Ilyssa.

Perhaps so.

"To err is human; to forgive, divine." Indeed, well familiar words to the educated. However, isn't that what the Church is? Our everlasting tie to the Kingdom Above? Certainly repentance is provided, especially with Christ dying for all our sins.

Surely you didn't think I actually ruled my kingdom?
