Chapter 1808 My Fucking Duty & Service:>Ep18
- "If it comes to it, I will release you from your oath. You need not...you needn't..." The Princess' voice flagged, her emotions coming to the fore. Before she could finish the thought, Lenna scooped up her liege with her right arm alone and kissed her.
- "We took an oath, you and I. In the Light, in front of a Priestess and no one else, we pledged ourselves to each other. Oaths may mean nothing to you, but they mean everything to me. I don't care how many blades are arrayed against us. Sent by your siblings, or foreign paymasters, or the Magisters, or the Gods themselves. I will protect you with my dying breath. I would cut down the night to keep you safe. You know this."
