"Hush dear, you knew what will happen if you did this for the final time, come." Said SkekZok as his darling cried out apologies and pleading for mercy and forgiveness, but the ritual master was was stubborn.He knew that his soft spot would cause more problems if she was let her off the hook it would be a lie if he said he didn't feel guilty.
But SkekZok wholeheartedly knew that his darling was just too stubborn to be his, too prideful to accept his affection and courtship.
Ever since she came, he had his eyes on her, spinning his prophetic 'ability' off to her saying words too sweet for any of his fellow Skeksis to hear unless he wanted them to take advantage of his favor to her.
Gifting her treasures and showering her in praises behind closed doors, he had longed for her to reciprocate his feelings.
She had served them for many trine by now but for an odd reason there was always one pattern, always that the time comes that he brings up the question, she acted cold and unresponsive, always excusing herself and leaving quickly to another Skeksis, whether it's SkekEkt, skekTek, or Thra forbid SkekVar, he was left in the dark every. single. time.
So when the time came he cornered her and gone straight to the point, she gave excuse after excuse, his eyes watched her more shy and guilty one's looking around in a panic, trying to piece together her excuses on why she refused his hand.
It was now his turn to leave her in the dark, as he left his mind thought of a plan, a plan that would have to at least force his darling to finally accept his affection.
Well coordinated and unexpected for his darling to fall under his grasp, and accept him as hers, and her accepted as his.
All it took was a convincing conversation with his imperial majesty and a trade with SkekShod that his plan went into effect.
The human that worked under the emperor had the honor of marrying the master of ancient and absolute rites and prophecy, it was a shock for some of the Skeksis but nevertheless they celebrated the marriage in an extravagant fashion in what they favored, a banquet.
His darling only stared at her food served by the podlings, one of horror and utter disbelief, how could she not hold a look of disgust? She thought she had evaded the Ritual Master's advances but it seemed that excuses and avoidance had led him to have more persistence.
So.... How could she not take a chance and escape?
The first one was after the banquet, she ran and she was captured, the Skeksis were almost feeling scared for the ritual master's wife, what sort of wrath would he bestowed?
But to his brethren surprise, he forgave her and took her away from the others and into his room. It wouldn't be long for her to escape again, finally earning the ritual master's trust to roam freely, but after he gave her his trust, she decided to shatter the already fragile relationship between them and ran and hid away, but this time it was the gelfling that brought her on a silver platter.
Of course they felt that the wife was unworthy of their lord and they were angry for the Ritual master saying brutal insults and forcing her back to the castle where the ritual master seemed serious and more stone cold.
That's when he dragged his darling back and gripped her shoulders where he warned her if she ever did this silly trick again she will face more than just being under lock and key, he will show no mercy on punishment.
But now she had messed up for the final time, and she cried and pleaded with guilt, those eyes still shaking and her face quivered in fear as he locked her up and looked through his room, finding a suitable punishment.
He began to think of her, and what caused his soft spot to show, was it her mouth spilling those excuses and what blocked his advances for so long? Was it those hands that aided in her escape and revealed her fear? Or was it......
The ritual master stopped for a moment thinking it over before grabbing the tube of metal and glass containing one of his most adored Ocular Castigations.
He began to start with stitching his darling's mouth shut so the others won't hear her screams of pain and so he wouldn't hear her pleading for mercy.
She was then restrained and caged, the ritual shushed her with his soothing and two faced voice as the peeper beetle began its descent to one of her eyes, her eyes leaking tears but the ritual master Cooed and looked at her now terrified eyes.
"It'll all be over soon." Cooed SkekZok.
It was the after the punishment that his darling finally wrapped her arms around him, sobbing as SkekZok carefully treating her wound that will soon scar as a reminder of what would happen if she dared leave him again.
And for that, he was finally completed his 'Prophecy'.
