This was all that Titan needed to charge at Valerian. Inheritance is not a nice thing only, especially in a world filled with magic, even the bad would follow. Nothing came without a price. Valerian was paying the price of inheriting the decay magic from Senium with his sanity. Every time he used that, he loose control, and everything around him withers.

Despite being cunning, the young emperor lost his cool. Valerian was deliberately goading him into losing his calm. Even if Titan was able to withstand taunts and bad-mouthing, his pride will not allow him to stand silently when someone was looking down on him.
