If you really wanted to be pedantic about it they are not 'confirmed official', but that's also As Close As We Get, the trials of romance are just not a part of Dungeon Meshi's storyline, Desire and Obsession are so that's the aspect of their relationship that shines through the most) has me absolutely going insane over the Specific Romantic Dynamics of basically every fucking character alongside their platonic ones.

Or would they simply appoint laterally the child of a sibling?#One of Zon's children perhaps?#imagine the political DON'T WALK AWAY FROM ME #THINK ABOUT THE POLITICAL RAMIFICATIONS OF AN ORC SITTING ON THE THRONE OF THE GOLDEN KINGDOM #GET BACK HERE-
