HYPOCRISY IS HOMAGE VICE PAYS TO VIRTUE. ❝ The Royal Chariot was a necessity to the Fire Nation and to the Family, for the Fire Palace was so large it was a city unto its own. To walk from one place to another, whie certainly feasible, would need miles of walking or swift walking, and on many occasions, there was simply not enough time in the day to handle the everyday activities. It also provided a level of silence and privacy between the members, between traversal, to speak in earnest without the prying eyes of the public. Today was important for Kaido, and most likely for the rest of the members. Today was when he put his faith in his sons, to show that their justice and goodness bore fruit into wisdom. Kaido turned his gaze from the outside of the Forbidden City to his wife and sons. "Your mother and I have both looked forward to, and dreaded, this day." Kaido spoke, a ghost of a smile barely cracking his lips. "Are you two afraid?" MADE BY MINNIE OF FTS AND GS |

The carriage was a necessity, by Kujaku's own modest standards (and yes, he would be very adamant in saying this was indeed modest); for it would have been absurd not to have some kind of transport when it came to the Fire Palace. The endless courtyards, the sheer lengths it took from literally his own room to the government offices, or, heaven's forbid; the barracks... Even those of official positions would often use palanquins or merely settle for living nearby. Though nothing quite beat a driven mobile device like their family's designated carriage.

Too bad the air felt thick enough to cut with a knife. He didn't know exactly how many of their numbers were actually anxious about this event the parents thought up, though he was certain his father's air alone was most likely the largest cause; it felt like wasted energy to the man of nineteen. They had been given brief details, a set base of knowing what exactly they were doing but things were still left up in the air purposefully. Most likely to test the brothers' judgement... or perhaps this was merely an easier way for the boys to see how different their results would be. Quite frankly, no matter what might've been slid their way; Ku was fairly confident in his own abilities to swim rather than sink. And he let that show through the relaxed poise of his position.

"It will be fine father." His voice came out oddly smooth, even for him. "While I don't know how nervous my dear little brother might be-" That was a lie, he could probably tell if he stared at him for a few moments. "I can assure you we have enough confidence in our judgement to not damage the face of our family." With that Kujaku offered a far more easy and smooth smile than his father's attempt at scaring them with positivity.

To say he was nervous was - undoubtedly - an understatement. It may be alongside his brother, but today was the day that he made his debut in the court. Judging those who had committed wrongs against the laws of the Fire Nation, ultimately deciding their fate. The lives of his people were in his hands. In truth Kishin had barely spoken a word since leaving the palace with his family, if purely due to his nerves which he would always refuse to show. Especially to his parents. Never to his parents.[break][break]
He attempted to breathe deeply, to control the rate which his chest rose and fell. Often this had helped him in the past, especially with his archery. Now he hoped it would hide his shaking hands by slowing his heart rate. There was no doubt in his mind that Ku was faring much better - he always did under these conditions. With the expectations and pressure of many weighing on his shoulders. Which was a situation Ki still found himself trying to adjust to. The expectations of his parents and teachers, yes, but not the entirety of the people. Ah he wished he could know how his brother did it, then emulate it in his own way.[break][break]
The gaze of his red eyes was focused outside the carriage until his father spoke, snapping him back into reality. Although his head snapped to the front he wouldn't look at either parent, but rather in the gap between their heads. It was easier than making eye contact he had found in the past. "I'm fine." He snapped ever so slightly, immediately regretting the edge in his words. The last thing he wanted was to lash out at Ku like that... ever... A small nod was all he could offer to add to what his elegant brother was saying.
