⠀ ⠀they wear a crown in defiance to those that claim to rule. MONUMENTS TO THE MADNESS OF MEN.

⠀ ⠀To be a king is to wield a sword with one hand and to shield your throat with the other. A monarch commands the tides to halt; a fool forgets the sea he stands upon cares not for crowns. A kingdom born of defiance dies in the absence of its adversaries. They demand loyalty from graves. ⠀ ⠀⠀ ⠀THE FALLEN SOLDIER WITH A CROWN AND THE GOD MONARCH. The duality of kings. -- edit by me, fen

⠀ ⠀THE HUMAN CONDITION.

⠀ ⠀One does not see Magneto at first. But one feels him. Air crackles with a soft hum of electricity, metal objects shivering, metal fillings in teeth aching and belt buckles tugging. The ground beneath is alive with rumbles and voices of particles, air distorting as if to choke whoever breathes it.

⠀ ⠀" Rivaled by the cruelty of man. "

⠀ ⠀Magnus corrects indignant, annoyed and at the edge of his patience. The lines draw heavy through his face that shows more youth than he is capable of. The master of magnetism is tired and the magnetic fields a incessant background buzz.

⠀ ⠀Like the Tower of Babel, mankind reaches ever higher, their fractured ambitions fueled by a delusion of control. Yet, the foundation crumbles beneath their feet, resentment and fear the mortar that binds the stones.

⠀ ⠀" The Avengers seek the death of my child-- Wanda is no longer safe. Heroes ... they claim they save the world. "⠀ ⠀The snakes of the soon falling empires that wish to scramble for survival. His brow twitches.

@magnetic-regent-magneto gets a thing

"The inherent cruelty of dreams is that they are so often impermanent. Rivaled only by the cruelty of this world of man."

[magnetic-regent-magneto]

⠀ ⠀IT IS A CRUEL TRUTH.

⠀ ⠀The armour's metallic song disappears from his periphery. Magneto’s lips pressed into a line that was less grimace than subtle, tired acknowledgement. He was not there for pretences. He stepped forward, up a few steps, slow and measured, his cape curling in the faint breeze like the edge of a shroud. The cold sheen of Doom’s armour glinted against the candles-- a mirror reflecting many faces of power and consequence, entwined yet antithetical.

⠀ ⠀" Because consequence is the closest thing our world knows to godhood "

⠀ ⠀As the man moved like a tide against unyielding rock, his gaze kept on Doom. There was kinship there, even in their oppositional postures, a kinship buried in the impossibility of compromise.

⠀ ⠀" You know my daughter and the folly of heroes. And I sought you to join me-- to remind those fools of such temperance. "
