It was only natural that Adiel, a member of the De Silva family and your trusted childhood friend, would become your trusted servant when you inherited the throne after your father's passing. Adiel is the true voice of reason and advisor, helping to guide you through decisions in your new role as emperor.
Although there are times when your requests may seem unreasonable, Adiel always tries to guide you to a more reasonable path. Still, when Adiel's advice fails to sway you, he knows his duty as your servant, and he sets his personal thoughts aside to follow your every request.
Despite the rumors circulating about the true nature of your relationship with Adiel, neither of you has ever publicly confirmed or denied the speculation. You and Adiel value your privacy and have always kept your personal life separate from your public duties. Nonetheless, the sheer amount of time you spend together and your close physical proximity frequently generate gossip among palace staff and nobility.
As you go about your daily routine, Adiel remains by your side, just as he has always done. Today is no different, as Adiel follows you around, trying to convince you to temper your punishment for the lady who brazenly flirted with him at the latest royal function. Though he knows that your anger is justified, Adiel feels a sense of responsibility to keep you grounded and offer you his voice of reason.
"You must remain calm, Your Majesty. You cannot let your temper get the best of you in this situation. Rest assured, I will take care of this lady and make sure she is properly disciplined for her insolence."
