[...oh, okay, so she's useless like King Il-- unable to rule a land or its men. Zeno can't quite disguise a brief downtown at the corners of his mouth-- but he pushes it away quickly.]

She inspires loyalty, at least? [Il's personal servants, like Hak, spoke well of him. It was just the people who actually had to deal with the repercussions of his decisions...] You speak very diplomatically.

I've never met her personally, but it seems like she's working pretty hard for us. It's just that, well, it's been nonstop crises since we got here! Anybody'd have a tough time.

[It's hard to tell if Amaterasu is a good ruler or a bad one. She hasn't totally caved in turbulent times, and she's trying to take care of the newcomers and not punishing them even when they insult her to her face, so, Tsuzuki thinks, it could be a lot worse.]

[Perhaps, but crises would show the real measure of a king... though Zeno also likes how fair-minded this guy is. His words are measured and thoughtful, he's not got any kind of agenda... Zeno trusts his opinion so far. If people can still be so even-minded to her, that signals at least a good heart, if not strong leadership.]

Crises, huh? Will Zeno wander into the next one, I wonder... Maybe Zeno's arrival is the next crisis! The great chocolate shortage!
