This is the safest option, because if anything goes wrong we can just create a new breed of monster that eats the first one.

Lander county's safe as heaven,
despite all the strife and boilin',
Tin Star,
Oh how she's an icon of the eastern west,
But now the time has come to end our song,
of the Tin Star, the Tin Star!

After getting into one nasty break-up with a school of magic, Kris isn't ready to jump right into a new relationship.
quote:No. We'll learn to live with what we have.
Perhaps magic is not the solution to the kingdom's problems; in fact, lately, it's been the source of the problems instead. You decide to let the kingdom adjust to the magic it already has first, a plan the queen thinks is very wise. (Increased Thecla Relationship.) (%+5 Thecla = +1% Thecla +2 Charisma)
It's not as though he doesn't have time.
quote:In the palace courtyard, you lie down on the cobblestones and look up at the stars you revealed.
What are the stars? Are they intelligent sprites watching over your planet? Are they motes of magic dust left over from creation? Are they faraway places you could visit one day? There is still much that you don't know.
A young couple decides to join you, lying several feet away and looking up at the stars themselves. You suppose if you had made different decisions, you could have had someone by your side right now as well.
Instead of a lover, you have magic. Perhaps you love magic more than you could love any one person.
You are living your dream, the greatest wizard in the world. If that isn't success, what is?
A Transformative End: A Star Among Stars
Kris didn't find love, but he did triumph over rot and achieve his lifelong dream of healing the sky.
