In the end, while he and Ellen were brainstorming on ways to separate the two, an opportunity ended up falling right into their lap.
"Cador, hold these for me while I go to the bathroom."
How incredibly lucky for them, was this the fabled luck of a major side character? Ellen disliked it whenever he likened their lives to novels and he could understand why but they really were just too suitable to be protagonists.
Coincidentally stumbling into the inheritance of one of the most legendary heroes, being born into one of the most powerful families and having an intense family civil war, being forced by your own race to do horrible things, seducing princes of entire kingdoms, getting revenge on the sect that threw you out and becoming the strongest hero that there ever was.
Every single one of them could just as easily have been the protagonists of their own novels.
