He shares his bed with his straight-laced secretary, co-CEO, and mate Neal, who is a flying fox (AKA, a fruit bat). Luckily for their domestic tranquility, Neal is rather open to his mate's wide-ranging romantic exploits._**\n\n**_Occasionally joining them in their adventures is the captain of their imperial guard, a raccoon named Taxas._**\n\n\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\n\n**SELF-SACRIFICE**\n\n\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\n\n**Imperial Sovereign Romari:** \\*Whispers\\* \"These nomads are weird as hell.\"\n\n**Imperial Assistant Neal:** \\*Whispers back\\* \"Everyone has their own customs, sir. Theirs just happen to include ritual suicide upon seeing the personage of a sovereign ruler. They believe looking upon anyone with _'the divine right to rule'_ is second only to seeing a god, and as such, is sacrilege.\"\n\n**Romari:**\"Which would explain the heavy black drapes we've installed around my throne.\"\n\n**Neal:**\"That's pretty much it, yes. Ritual suicide in the throne room would set a rather disturbing precedent, and the blood would give the cleaning crew fits.\"\n\n**Romari:**\"I do have to say that I like the privacy, though we could use some beanbag chairs in here. Maybe a pillow or two. But having to deal with a damned priest just to talk to them is stressful in ways I don't want to think about.\"\n\n**Intermediary:** \\*Intones from outside the curtain\\* \"Your Most Worshipful Excellency! High One of This Most Esteemed Fatherland! Dignitary Feek wishes to know if you might call a recess so that he may use the, err, little fennec's room. Is this acceptable?\"\n\n**Romari:** \\*Speaks up\\* \"Sure, whatever. Just tell him to wash his hands when he's done.\" \\*Whispers again\\* \"And why can't we talk to them directly? This _he-said/she-said_ crap is irritating.\"\n\n**Neal:**\"For the very same reason, sir. Yours is the voice of a god, or might as well be. Only priests can speak to the gods without going insane. The theory would certainly explain a few things around here.\"\n\n**Romari:** _\"I'm_ going insane!\"\n\n**Neal:**\"You're the one who said it, not me.\"\n\n**Romari:**\"Cute. But did you see those piles of gold they left as a sacrifice? At least somebody finally recognizes how to worship me properly!\"\n\n**Neal:**\"Sir, I'm on my hands and knees _worshiping_ you as we speak.\"\n\n**Romari:**\"You're my divine consort; you don't count. And besides, _I'm_ the one leaving an offering, so keep your head down, back that ass up, and take it like a man. Your god commands it.\"\n\n**Neal:**\"I believe I'll put in that request for some pillows as soon as you're finished, sir. Divine sacrifice is really hard on the knees.\"\n\n\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\\*\n\nFor a comprehensive list of all of them, go here:\u0026nbsp;[http://www.old.sofurry.com/page/318694/user](http://www.old.sofurry.com/page/318694/user).\n\n  \n  \n\n","series":{"name":"The Many Perversions of Romari Susi","previous":"https://fse.anthro.fr/stories/324254-9-walking-the-dog.json","next":"https://fse.anthro.fr/stories/325864-11-poor-dating-practices.json"}}
