I think HJ would be proud to know this is what i’m using my work canva pro account for
ungentlemanly times
Imagine you're like, really important nobility and good friends with the queen herself. You stole a super holy artifact that is literally made from part of your God and gave it to some guy in an empire that you have been enemies with for literal decades. This started a war.
Three months later a group of pink and blue skinned frat bros (Gender neutral) Find their way in front of your queen, lie horribly, and then when they start to get arrested pull out your God and return it
You're then given the task of monitoring and keeping an eye on this new group of people and see if they do anything odd.
After day one they vanish. They return a week later and say they killed a bunch of giants for a war scientist. You look into that and yeah, that's correct, they did that.
So your queen decides to award them a house in a really bougie neighborhood. You spy on them and overhear their conversations still not convinced they're not spies; all you learn is that at least half of these people have never lived in a house before.
You return later to check in on them. There is a tree on top of their house. It is sixty feet tall, and also bright purple.
It has been three days.
Then they return to the queen and go "Heyyyy so those giants we killed are not actually dead, we just returned them to their house because someone was using the house to summon demons, but we think we found the guy doing that, can we like, go and take care of that?" while also being genuinely confused on why 'Can't everyone just stop fighting?' isn't a realistic solution to this conflict.
They vanish two days later. Three days after that you get a call from a burner phone. Its them. They ask you whats the deal with that giant tree in the middle of Chernobyl, because they are at the giant three in the middle of Chernobyl
Every day Essek Thelyss wakes up.
people were (understandably) talking about aranessa leaving the party bc she holds too much sway in the party's direction and i was like. yeah but what would make julien leave aranessa. but of course. of COURSE his people would make him leave. house royce is his family but the barrowguard is his family too
Aranessa offering a place to live in the future for Occtis
Damn bro how come you get THREE moms?
"I found what is ours and I have it in my possession. And I found something else, so I'm going to follow that thread, and also I have questions about a woman I am traveling with named Aranessa Royce. So if there's information you can gather, I will see you when I see you."
