As the two rose, they saw the smiling face of Empress Jamyl Sarum staring at them. Behind her Kador Ouryon, otherwise known as True Adamance, walks out of the Imperial Chambers without his shirt on.
"Oh ****...." He said, sidling back into the bedroom offering the Empress a saucy wink. " See you in five Your Eminence."
GÇ£ Ahem..." She coughed, clearing her throat, visibly blushing. "I wanted to personally congratulate you two on your victory. IGÇÖve been watching you two when.... I..... when I've had time.GÇ¥
GÇ£Us? But why us?GÇ¥ asked Aero.
FTFY
Oh Aero is going to love this..... so ironic given the character adjustments he is making to Arston. Also for reference to improve the plot..... as I understand it Arston doesn't have a family. His younger brother, Eirki Yassavi, is MIA, their parents are gone, and he married his duty.

Highly religious and very much married to duty. Clean edge type of guy. So yes. I will switch what you and Avallo say. It would make more sense for you to say what he said instead. Wish you would have told me that in your e-mail before I posted it..... -_- Haha
Regardless I don't think this will end up being canon/lore.
I'm not sure your captured the Empress quite right. She speaks a little too directly for a pious, troubled young woman bearing the weight of the largest empire in New Eden suffering from the mental depredations of a Sleeper created AI hell bent on conquest.

'I'm not sure your captured the Empress quite right. She speaks a little too directly for a pious, troubled young woman bearing the weight of the largest empire in New Eden suffering from the mental depredations of a Sleeper created AI hell bent on conquest.'
Have a look at these few quotes from the Chronicle 'All These Wayward Children'
"When someone cleared their throat, it raised the hairs on the back of his neck, and when he turned and saw who was standing in a darkened part of the room, he felt like his skin was going to tear itself off his body in fear."
and......
"I'm tired of speaking to no one but my retinue," she said, in a voice that felt like warm sunlight. "It is stifling. I want to reach out to others, particularly the isolated souls in the darker reaches. We mustn't ever fear the unknown." She leaned her head to one side. "Are you all right? You're gaping wider than a Slaver at feeding time."
and.......
"Her expression softened, and it was like the sun rising again.
"Do you think I'm beautiful?" she asked in a much milder tone.
"Yes, Highness," he replied without a moment's thought.
"Do you think I'm awesome?" she asked, every syllable of the word clicking smoothly into place.
"Yes, Highness," he replied again.
"Do you think I'm terrifying?" she asked, as if they were all the same questions."
Jamyl Sarum is written as a particular kind of woman with the mannerisms of a polite, young Amarrian woman that is afflicted by a constant unfathomable sense of spiritual dissonance. She was a girl who idealistically dreamed of being the Empress one day however after undergoing the trials of becoming the Empires she now looks atthe Faith as a pragmatic solution to controlling power within her empire.
At the same time she has this aura that most people simply cannot understand and that is both awe inspiring and terrifying at the same time.
When the authors write her her manner of speech always seems to imply something more that what she is saying on the surface, and it usually pertains to spiritual matters rather than mundane things like military conquest as if she is already self assured that victory is inevitable, or at least defeat is impossible.
