Disclaimer: I don't own Fire Emblem or any of the characters in it

Author's Note: Ah. My favorite FE8 pairing. I like the idea of Seth being a bit jealous of Lyon (coughweeniecough), and thinking that he (pre-Demon King, of course) would make a better match for Eirika. Yeah, right, Seth.

Seth to Eirika: Treasure

My heart knows how much I love you,

And I'm certain that it's true

That you deserve the wealth of kings,

Which I can't give to you.

So I put these thoughts out of my head.

You're a precious, priceless thing

Who deserves the shine of diamonds,

And not my dull and modest ring.

I tell you it's my duty

That should keep us two apart,

But it's really that I don't deserve

The treasure of your heart.

Dear, I'm no Prince of Grado,

Just your stalwart, loyal knight.

I am certain that I love you,

But my love won't make this right.

You'll always be my treasure,

The loveliest sight my eyes have seen,

But I cannot let you wed a knight

When you're born to be a queen.
