Quintilis 18th, 2245.

Ever since the empire's Imperators began teaching their subjects about the different sins, discrimination, and the types of darkness's, all of them assumed the five types of discrimination as well as the sins associated with them, are isolated from each other however that notion is highly misleading.

It's difficult to explain through words so I'll simply give an example. In the second century, or the "Age of Exploration", despite all being equal, many witches allowed their Invi of each other to grow out of control but didn't wish to admit it, so they began to excessively sing their praises whilst belittling others.

In this example, one can easily see how, at times, Orgullo can be a side effect of Invidia, as well as the fact that homosexual witches can also fall to darkness, as this was before the time the five packs were created, however as with the other forms of darkness those who did fall often realized their mistakes and repented.

The fact of the matter is that all Quinque Peccata Mortalia are connected even when those connections can't easily be seen. The rule of thumb is that the deadlier sins, the harder it is to detect. They often cause the possessed to participate in lesser sins, which was a major cause for the problems which occurred during Imperator Rufus' reign.

While it's true Quinque Genera Distinctionis are often linked with Quinque Peccata Mortalia, in the case of Acetiae, there've been instances when simply being Acetic can also cause one to exhibit Alterum Quattuor Genera Distinctionis though it may not always seem that way at first glance.

"Are you three not cold?" Soror Mea asked Ea butch aether Posteris as Rey Miguel finished explaining La Difícil Situación De Su Reino. Sometime after the first Egrediens Ceremonia I learned that fire aethers were exothermic, relying on their environment to regulate their body temperatures, a useful trait given where they lived, as even before Il Mio Padre's Regno, the east side of Hyperion Heights rarely got any snow.

The west side of Hyperion Heights was and still is roughly the same way, consistent temperatures with only light amounts of snow from December to Februarius, resulting in earth aethers that're exomesothermic. They'd some ability to regulate their body temperature but mostly relied on the environment to do it for them.

Water aethers, who lived on the northern part of Hyperion Heights, meanwhile were said to be endomesothermic which was the exact opposite, preferring to rely on their internal body heat rather than the environment, much like the endothermic wind aethers, who lived on the southern side of Hyperion Heights.

"Lucuit, Bis Avia," Imperator Azuro responded. "Our armor is made with specialized heaters which allow us to remain warm even the coldest climates." This was the reason Bis Nepotem Meus was nicknamed Curtmanticus, which I forgot to reveal in the fifth tale, he was able to recreate a fire aether armor for Ipse Et Famillia Eius allowing them to maintain an optimum body temperature no matter what.

"Alright then," King Miguel remarked. "If you three are certain you're alright, let's move on to the issues at paw. Any suggestions?" Princepess Nera Et Princeps Caligula turned to Fratres Eorum, Princeps Elagabalus to see if he had any ideas. When Iuvenis Princeps shook his head in response.

"I got nothing," Princeps Elagabalus stated. "Seriously!" Princeps Caligula exclaimed. "Dude, water aethers are supposed to know how to deal with this sort of thing!" "Just because I'm a water aether, doesn't mean I'm automatically gonna know how to solve this!"

"Besides under aether law, I'm technically only second in line for the imperial throne, not the first!" "Alright then Elegabalus," Princepess Nera said. "Let's turn to the true heir then." Iuvenis wind aether turned to Eius Primogenitus Fratres only to find him once again lost in thought. Imperator Grimus noticed this behavior as well, and wondered if Eius Quartus Prenepotem was even focusing on the situation.

"Jacobus!" Fratres Meus exclaimed, rousing Iuvenis Princeps from his daze. "Ita, Avus!" Princeps Jacobus responded, looking up to face his ancestor. "Now that I've your attention, did you find another letter that may help us with this matter?"

"What makes you certain I was thinking of that?" Iuvenis Princeps questioned. "Including, or aside from the fact you're currently wearing a similar expression to the one you had in Blight Valley?" Imperator Grimus responded.

"I did find something," Princeps Jacobus answered. "Though I'm uncertain if it's useful." "Licet, Fillius Meus," Imperator Rufus encouraged. "We're merely brainstorming for now; thus, all relevant ideas are considered useful. "In the third letter I found, addressed to the hetero witches of El Reino Helado it states that witches are supposed to quote."

"Dicit Titan, Dilige Proximum Tuum Sicut Propinqui Tui, Unde Et Ipsi Oriebant, Et Hereditatem Suam Culturae Observant, Si Non Sinerent Aliquid Tui Culturae, Sicut Matrimonium Sexus Et Identitatem Mutans.Quaelibet Creatura, Quam Proximos Suos Per Differentiam Vitat, 'I Culturae Opiniones In Suis Sedibus Semper Exterminabitur, Et Simili Specie Vulnerabilis Poenae Intulit In Eos Quos Laeserunt."

Unlike those who lived in the east and west of the imperial palace, those who live in the north, and south don't particularly like using physical punishments, choosing instead to use psychological punishments with exile being the maximum for crimes that effect only those who lived north of the imperial palace.

"Do you know what to do Elagabalus," Rey Miguel asked. "Just gather them here so I can banish them, yes." Princeps Elagabalus answered. "Alright let's make haste!" Nepos Meus exclaimed, before the two of them departed.

I neglected to mention this in Blight Valley, but it wasn't just Iuvenis Imperiales gathering up those morally corrupt witches, whichever of Eorum Majorums who're the same type of aether as them, would go too.

But anyway, as the two of them continued to gather all those in El Reino Helado that're guilty for Los Problemas Del Reino, we came to realize that all of them were Posteri of the terrorists Rey Pedro I executed a century prior though I'm not surprised. Based on an old El Reino Helado legend, execution by shark was only permitted when the crime committed also affected Painted Plains.

Anyway, they must've heard of Majorum Fatum and began to associate Rey Pedro I's actions with queerness, which they combined with their family's racist views, thereby causing their despicable behavior. Regardless by month's end, all of them were found and punished.
