[ Much like Arthur before her, Mithian sits, holding her crown in her hands, fingers tracing along the textured gold. She looks as though she's trying to make some sort of decision. After a moment, she lets out a sigh before turning to the camera.]

There are many of us from different worlds and here, we are one and the same, titles and names hardly matter in a place such as this, in a battle like this one. I ask, what is the point of holding on a symbol of something that holds little value here? Priorities have changed and what was important is no longer as important as survival, as helping others to survive, and win this war so that we may all go home.

[ She pauses for another moment before she sets the crown aside, fingers lingering for a moment.] I wonder if anyone could tell me where the nearest market is. [ Because she's going to sell that crown. Yep.]

She glances down at the crown and nods, pressing her lips together for a moment.]

I feel as though... [ She trails off for she does not want to trouble him further. For all that her own feelings are important to her, she cannot expect others to carry their burden as well as her own. He has bigger troubles.]

As though... what?

It is one thing to be a king here but to be a princess, it hardly seems to matter to those beyond our world.

Neither does it matter to be a king.

[ He shakes his head. ]

It is up to us what it matters for ourselves, and how it matters. If you think you do not need the crown, then you do not need it.

I suppose I must decide if I need it or not.
