Then what I have to say is that if there was any way I could have my kingdom come to your aid, I would.
[Because that's... honest to goodness the only way that she can even think to save those people. Natalia hates war more than anything else but there must be another way to help them - foreign aid?
At this rate, it's hard to imagine the monarchy collapsing on its own, as much as she would prefer that. Even a coup from the people would be preferable.]
[Elza pauses, shifting gold eyes to her and blinking a few times, slow and catlike.]
Thank you. [And he smiles wryly.] Our worlds being different just make a bit too large an obstacle.
[But he thinks that he could trust her word if she was able to help. Even if they haven't spoken much at length, just her concern for his kingdom in this conversation alone...]

[ . . . . er, except, even Natalia can recognize she might be starting to get ahead of herself here. Um. She shakes her head faintly then.]
Hm. Perhaps as a last resort....
[She's still not ruling out the idea????]

[There are many things about this world he doesn't know, up to and (GREATLY) including their technology.]
If it does ever prove possible, I may ask for your aid, then, Natalia.

You wouldn't even have to ask. It's a given.

[He'll bring a fist up to his chest, respectful.]

Think nothing of it. If there is anything that I can do to aid an ailing country's people, it's only natural that I would do so.
[Taking the whole People's Princess concept a little bit further.]
