This venerable one is the Moon Supreme of the Moon Tribe, the most powerful being in the Three Realms, and Captain of the Corsair ship the Phantom Moon | 月幻影.
NOTE
Do not bother this venerable one with idle chatter.
[ There comes a nod in response. People back home would know this of Miqo'te. It's not something that he has really explained here, save for two individuals. ]
Aye, that it is. Though I daresay I never told you the titles that I hold. Krile and a man named Rammbroes are the only ones from home that do so now. Call me by my more intimate name, that is.
This venerable one... will hold your name close, Raha.
[He squeezed the hands he was holding before releasing them and stepping back from G'raha. Or attempted to, anyway. G'raha's grip on his clothes would determine just how far he got.]
You should... not stay. We have talked. So tonight, you should not stay.
[He didn't want G'raha to go, but he knew that he shouldn't stay. Even if he couldn't bring himself to say 'go back to your boyfriend and reassure him'.]
[ He'd be allowed to step further back. The grip that G'raha has on those robes falls away and even he is taking a step backwards. ]
I wasn't intending to. While I consider you and I to be close, my heart is his. If his own aches then so, too, does mine along with it. I would do nothing to jeopardize what he and I have.
[ If it isn't clear about where his heart lies in all of this. G'raha is making it known that while Daqiang is someone he considers very important and their friendship means so much... He loves Zack. ]
[It is something Daqiang cannot fault G'raha for. Much as he wants to nurse the hurt of not being chosen first, he is used to it. And more still... he understood it. G'raha had someone he loved. Daqiang didn't know all the ways of love, but he understood that. That someone being chosen first.
He nodded and crossed his arms. Kept his eyes down. But did not turn his back.
It was G'raha who was leaving first.
And Daqiang would give him the respect of watching. Of accepting.]

[He asked, eyes finally coming up to meet G'raha's once more.]
Your 'true name' is Raha? Is this what could be called your personal name? Without titles or surname?
[He wanted to be certain the translation the magic of the world provided was correct for his understanding.]

So, tonight, I will be going first.
