Untimely

The Holy Emperor summoned me to their private chambers. Upon arrival, I performed the Holy Supplication Ritual until His Perfectness spoke to me.


"Can I be wrong?"


I waited as long as I thought prudent to answer as I thought about how to resolve the inevitable paradox.


"Why do you ask this, Your Amazingness?"


"Don't dodge it. I'm the representation of the Gods here on Earth. They are perfect, I am perfect. Can I be wrong about something?"


"Your Stupendousness, I might humbly suggest any thought of wrongness is merely untimely correctness."


That worked to satisfy him, for a while.
