The room was barely illuminated, the only light coming from a dying ember in the ashtray

( Don’t get scared, Thea. You have a long way to go… )

yeah, there is ritual that females should be pure before marriage … there is no ritual for male though, after knowing her future… she chooses to live as commoner than fighting for anything or getting involved in politics…. she chooses to do one night stand and get her title strip
