Once More in Salisbury
Um, ahem. I'm only going to say this once, so eyes on me while you listen to my oath.
"I, Cnoc na Riabh of the King Clan, do hereby recognize your sincerity and loyalty, and do most affectionately award you with a well-deserved boon reflecting these qualities. As I pledge to you a lifelong friendship and love that will never wither, I place this tiara—a symbol of my heart—upon your head."
What do you think? Pretty, right? Thank you for always believing in the faerie me. From the bottom of my heart, I appreciate that you never doubted me in the slightest, both when I was doing well in battle and when I was on the verge of annihilation. I knew, I guess from my previous life...well, my time in Faerie Britain would count as my previous life, so you and I have had a connection since then...or rather, I always had my eye on you...like, it was love at first sight and all...
Anyway! We've gotten this close, so you just have to accept the tiara. Hm? Why the hesitation? It may be a tiara, but it's like a marriage ring, so it shouldn't have too much...
"Huh? It's physically heavy? Like, big? Of course it is, since it's the great faerie's tiara. I couldn't bring the tiara from Faerie Britain, so you'll have to make do with this one, my Master♡"
