![]() As scenes of their time together flash by, Rose takes this to mean he’s cast everything else in life aside apart from what matters to him most: her.Ĭid goes on to say the world is “too bright”, that it makes it easy to see so much that one can lose sight of what matters. Cid tells her he’s split the world into “things that matter” and “things that don’t”, because he had a dream that would be impossible if he didn’t. Rose gives an exhausted, grim smile as she joins him outside, saying she’s killed her father, betrayed by her mother, betrayed Shadow Garden, and is hated by her subjects.īut she still smiles, because through it all, Cid has never been far from her side. With Rose at her absolute nadir, Cid tries one more thing to push her towards rebellion: he appears on her balcony as Cid playing Moonlight Sonata in front of the moon. Rose may well be enraged later, but in the moment, she is so disgusted she starts vomiting uncontrollably, then passes out.Ĭutting through this devastatingly heartrending scene (considering what Rose is going through), Cid drops his Shadow voice to lay out his intentions directly, only Rose is out cold, so he gives a half-hearted apology. And once he marries Rose as a mere formality, they’ll “get rid” of her too so they can rule Oriana. Reina admits to being the one who drugged her husband the king, all so she and Perv could be together. There, they not only overhear her and Perv getting it on, but discussing all of their schemes. Instead, he asks her to follow him to the balcony outside Reina’s chambers. When Cid meets with Rose again, it’s as Shadow, whom Rose assumes is there to kill her. I loved Cid’s inverted face as he endured what is clearly his least favorite genre. He believes if Rose learns the truth, it will enrage her sufficiently enough … to become the Tyrant. What he finds instead is that when it comes to Reina and Perv, things have gone from a fantasy isekai to a soap opera. But now that he knows Rose is holding back for her mother’s sake, his main priority is freeing Queen Reina, which he hopes will free Rose to become the Tyrant. It’s when he’s with Epsilon that the Black Rose comes up, but Cid thinks she’s simply talking about a Black Rose the flower, because of course he freakin’ does. Last week we got some majestic setup for the season-closing Oriana arc, but I didn’t know we’d get so much payoff right here and now! I am not complaining this arc is moving, but doesn’t feel rushed and still allows for plenty of quieter funny moments like the sniping between Epsilon and Margaret.
