Am I the only one who doesn't hate Sovieshu? ^^; He's such a trusting simp when it comes to Rashta I kinda pity him... I can't really hate him for getting a concubine, either, since he and Navier weren't lovers to begin with. I'm also kind of sad that their friendship from when they were kids is slowly being destroyed.
I don't ship them, but I think Sovieshu really loves Navier and just doesn't realize it because they've been friends for so long. Maybe bringing in Rashta was a rash decision borne from wanting to be loved? It's not such a far-fetched idea. I feel like he will come to regret his choices once Navier chooses Heinley.
