Forgive me for being...selfish...

And I warn you, the subject matter of my question might be sensitive...

[But why not make this inquiry here rather than in his world where it would surely bring negative repercussions.]

What are your thoughts on two men being in a relationship? [He doesn't dare say married, but he is drawn to the idea.] Do you perceive it as...wrong? Should the men instead continue their respective lines with wives?

[Heirs are important. Yet can they not be had in other ways? Of course said ways are illegal and immoral in the land he knows.]

Me personally? I've got no problem with it. Or with two women in a relationship for that matter. If heirs need to happen, they could use a surrogate, or even adopt. That's basically what our king did back in the world I grew up in.

And honestly, here on the train? Anybody who that is a problem for might want to take a look around, realize that they're on a crazy, flying, void-traveling train full of people from multiple universes and consider adjusting their priorities. Yeah, relationships might be complicated in other ways, but I doubt just the fact of two men being together is gonna be an issue for anybody here.

Your king adopted? [He really is overthinking this whole matter. But he is young and rather inexperienced in healthy relationships.] When you put it that way, yes it does seem silly to judge personal choices as long as no one is being hurt.

[Lea nods.]

He adopted a little boy named Ienzo whose parents had died when he was very young. Granted, I didn't follow the details too closely, since I was just a kid myself at the time, but as far as I know, our king- named Ansem the Wise- never married anybody or had any kids of his own. And everybody pretty much just accepted that Ienzo was his heir.

Course, different worlds might have different rules about that sort of thing, so adopting might not be a viable option everywhere. But none of that would really be a big issue for us on the train.

[Would it even really be possible to have and raise kids from infancy on a voidcraft like the one they were on? Something to look into, maybe...]

[ayao]

The only issue I could see has to do with the Golden Core. Each Cultivator has an active Golden Core, which allows them to cast spells. Such powers are inherited through the generations. An adopted child may not have the same abilities and therefore would be unfit to follow in the parent's footsteps.

[It would be cruel to require that of them, too. Without the proper power and studies, Cultivating can be a dangerous art. In fact, even with the proper power and studies, it is often dangerous.]

[Lea nods his understanding.]

Yeah, that might be a problem if they wanted to go into that line of work. But they could always do something else when they grew up. After all, being able to do magic is great, but it's not something you need to have a good life.
