Scions About Town

You guys want to see something adorable? Good, because we have it for you!

In the Eastern Promises game, Padma Billingsworth, Scion of Lakshmi, was raised as a proper British young lady, who in spite of her slightly unladylike preference for books and disinterest in getting married would never have dreamed of doing anything surprising or socially questionable. When a bunch of Scions turned up in London and told her she needed to go with them to go perform heroic deeds and do magical stuff, she was polite and sorry to turn them down, but explained that she simply couldn't go traipsing off to god knew where unchaperoned, and that her father would probably have a heart attack if she even suggested it.

So Shadan, secret prince of Persia, gambler, rapscallion and all-around rascal, put on his best Epic Manipulation face, went over to her house, and managed to not only convince her father that he was secretly a Duke of England and a very important person, but also that he should hand over Padma's hand in marriage because it was an awesome match, and furthermore, when her father started making noises about planning the wedding, that they were already married because they were totes in love and had eloped because they couldn't bear to be apart.

Her father totally bought it, and Padma found herself being swept off her feet and carried away by her new "husband" with very little input in the matter and a Shadan who was much too pleased with himself. And now you can look at a picture of that hilarious triumph of social knacks.

In the ensuing two years, Padma and Shadan have developed a weird but kind of sweet relationship... at least, when they aren't driving one another insane with their incompatible approaches to things like laws and the importance of learning.
