You see, Arista, miss Indigo and emperor Lachlan came together and concieved you. Wedlock is an action definitely frowned upon in the civilized world, as your father was berothed to empress Ute. He is very lucky that he wasn't pulled from his rank, or...worse.

Geneva, don't tear yourself down. Being told that she came from a different species was one thing, but telling her that she came from a cross of nobility and a shamed society is another. We both knew this would be hard on her. Arista's a strong soul, so hopefully she'll understand. She just needs to recover from the shock.

It'll be alright. Everything will turn out fine.
