Necropolis-On-Sea

Rimaia owns a mansion now, which is nice? She seems rather upset about it though. This seems to be about her connection to the Demon Lord and what her temple did to her family. I suppose that makes sense, I noticed that people tend to be upset when those they know or are related to die. I never did quite understand why they care when it is someone they have never met, but blood relation always seems so important for some reason. I think she is also upset that her religion lied to her? I do not know what she expected, that is all religions ever do. They are just as self serving as every other organization, only they have to pretend otherwise. Then again, she seems very naive about the world. She struggles with trees...
 
If Rimaia is related to the Demon Lord I wonder if her blood might be of any use for my project. Demons are functionally immortal so maybe it might be a step in the right direction. Tiefling blood has never been particularly helpful in the past, but Rimaia's bloodline stems from a much stronger source. Asking her might upset her though. Maybe it would help if I told her the connection she holds to the Demon Lord was being used to help people? She seems to like that sort of thing and it is technically true.
 
I have done my best to offer her some sort of comfort as it is my duty as the one she is courting, but this is not my strong point. I find emotions to be generally confusing, especially strong ones. I have not yet made her cry more so I must not be making it worse, which is some form of success. I hope she gets over this soon, it is very uncomfortable.
