How do you feel about your parents?

"I miss them, desperately. Mother and Father have both faded now and it's been so long some days I struggle to remember the sound of their voices. I loved them, so much. I still do. Mother and Father weren't perfect but they had a lot on their plates. I don't know what else to ask of an entire planet's King and Queen. Father was dealing with a lot and mother was doing her best to help him. Even if they weren't the King and Queen, they still had me, the child of prophecy, as a son.

Just having me as a son was a handful, let alone managing the well being of the entire kingdom. They did the best they could with what they had and I know that probably sounds insane coming from a place of royalty to most people. I can't begin to explain Misterican Royals to you but we were... not what I have come to find as the general consensus of what royal was or should be.

Quite the opposite in fact. Every other culture I have spoken to, I have come to find views Misterican Royals as strange.

Mother and Father loved me with everything they were and I the same. Even if Father was strict. Even if crossing Mother was the last thing you ever wanted to do. Even if sometimes I felt alone because they were so busy. Even through everything, I know they loved me with everything they were. Usva and I both.

I'd give anything to be able to have them back with me but I know no one comes back from the fade. I know they've taken up their places in nature. So I sit and talk to the moon sometimes and on occasion I will sing to the sun when he goes to sleep. It's sad how rare it is that they get to be together now so I wouldn't want them to be lonely. It's the least I can do as their son, after everything they did for me."
