I mean, I just recently wrote a lengthy paragraph on how this had nothing to do with grooming, even if there were subconscious feelings from Tei's side, because he mostly revered Shuraka. Shuraka, on the other hand, really did accept Tei as his actual wife and loved him; yearned for him this entire time. Tei was mostly worried and felt abandoned, like a loyal knight... or a dog. Tei would always do as the person he's loyal to is saying. If Tei was already aware of the feelings he surely has, which the completely changed, now big and strong Shuraka would have slowly evoked, we would have no conflict in this drama. I'm well aware of this. But it still hurts. I wondered in chapter 8 how Shuraka can even be here - had he not mentioned in the beginning that he cannot leave Arnata, because of his strong bond to the place, as he has this stupid eye on his forehead? I reckon the off colored nosebleed might have something to do with that sentiment. Anyway, they can all GTFO here. Like, YOU send the guy over, which could have easily been seen as a sign of mockery, when they were asking you for a bride. He could have been send back from the get-go and would've likely been blamed for political implications, had that happened - he could have also been killed. Not just by all the assassins send his way or the poison in the cup at the wedding, but for the disrespect of sending a grown ass man instead of a female bride for a child prince. None of that happened, instead they literally got married, as you know, because that's why you send Tei over, but when he was send back to Leracal as political issues arose, everyone made fun of Tei for being send back. NOW you pretend that Tei is in the way, because his legal husband came to take him back? What is even playing in their heads all day? An entire band of clapping monkeys?
