"You are dripping on my lovely new floor," said Rafal. Rhian blinked at the black stone tiles, grimy and thick with soot.

Prequel Rafal, Why Do You Have An Ahoge (hair Antenna)?

Prequel Rafal, why do you have an ahoge (hair antenna)?

Rafal: I don't know. I’ve always had it. Rhian's attempted to tame it, or weigh it down in the past, with gels, and creams, and other, odd concoctions, even sorcery, but nothing has ever succeeded in flattening it.

Rhian: It's remarkably stubborn. Much like someone I know. [He glares at Rafal pointedly.]

Rafal: Not this again.

Rhian: There's something to be said about the symbolism at play.

Rafal: I don't care.

Rhian: My point exactly! And his obstinance can err on the side of absurdity. Rafal submits to no man, and the only authority he'd ever accept is his own. He resists all attempts at reform, never appears beaten or chastened, won't scrape or grovel, won't yield or flatten himself, like that hair of his, and he can't be reliably tamed or trusted by most.

Rafal: I still don't care. And so what? I'm always right. You know that. And when I'm not right, things are sure to become right, even if it's my last act alive.

Rhian: Told you so. He'll force any solution into being if it suits him, but none of those solutions can tame that ahoge... or his formidable strength of will.

Rafal Is Literally a Type—Don't Believe Me? Read This:

Byronic Hero - TV Tropes
TV Tropes
The Byronic Hero is a character notable for being sullen, withdrawn, hard to like and hard to know, but usually possessing a rich inner life

He's a Byronic Hero. I am aghast at how accurate these descriptions are.

I had been reading sections of The Canterbury Tales in the original Middle English, but I also listened to part of this New English translation of "The Knight's Tale," and these excerpts coincidentally sounded exactly like Fall Rhian!

Aww, RHIAN, my beloved! Again, wonderful art!

Now, the question is: who or what is he looking at?

Felt Like I Should Post Rhian Next Since I Posted Rafal Last.
