reignsvir​ | ??? .

Muscles go taut at the unforeseen voice, stance almost instinctively switching to one of defense.  Wariness silences the sharp tongue, crimsons coming to a narrowed gaze that fixates on the unwelcome form the moment he comes into vision.

What a mess.  ❝  And you wish to preserve them, why ?  ❞  he interrogates in lieu of a greeting.  He wouldn’t be purposefully malicious to archaic wonders that researchers often tended to value, but distant curiosity curled in the pit of his stomach  ( fishy, it was ).

        “  well,  my friend,  that is because,  ”  they say,  tone light by way of sheepishness at their prior harshness,  giving a slight cough even.  “  i am an alchemist.  ”  gold must seem absolutely insane,  but,  well,  he would never argue that he’d ever been perfectly sane either  ---  whatever the other thinks,  he has not a single care.  “  these materials are in high demand,  so long after the fall ...  ”

s.kirk & r.hine are both 15.2k years old in k.haenri’ahn terms & so they’re basically cryptids.  i think that’s rly funny  ---  especially with s.kirk.  hermitic cryptid former knight n then sb knocks on his door and he’s like.  ew.  go away if you’re not specifically c.hilde a.jax t.artaglia.

rhine can take on traits of her creations if she should ever be pushed toward combat.  the claws,  fangs,  and senses of her right hounds.  the wings of durin.  she could even take their form for a time.  this is the true nature of her corruption.  as with alchemy & how it can transmute materials from one form to the next,  rhine can manipulate her own genetic makeup to match that of any of her creations.  it should be impossible &,  yet,  she can easily slip from one skin to the next.

[eisenblut]

in my interpretation of things,  foul legacy is a power held by the royal family’s most trusted knights & is similar to the form abyss heralds and lectors take.  had skirk been in foul legacy during the fall,  i believe that her armor would’ve fused permanently with her & she would’ve become something like them.  additionally,  to prevent insurrection,  royals hold a special influence over royal knights & can even control their actions.  it is nigh impossible to harm a royal when one is in their service.  this is reversible,  but there was no one to remove the trait from skirk during the fall and she still can be controlled to this day  ---  and the price would be giving up foul legacy.  she is strong without it,  however,  she’d never any intention of harming a royal anyway and didn’t expect the dynasty to recover either.

        “  I HAVE NO INTEREST  ---  ”  blood - red eyes rove over obsidian claws.  for what other reason could they be here ?  “  ---  in returning.  ”  though,  interest has not a thing to do with it.  should kaeya will it so,  by the nature of skirk’s oath,  the royal could will him back into service.  it’s an unspoken side - effect,  hardly is it ever considered,  for loyalty runs deep in the khaenri’ahn order of knights.  or,  rather,  it had,  when the fear of one’s autonomy had paled in comparison to that of disservice.

        “  leave.  ”

        “  you’re a long way from home,  human.  ”  fangs flash,  she inspects her claw - sharp nails idly.  when she’d seen that shock of orange hair,  skirk had ... hoped that had meant her student had returned for a visit.  alas,  it’s probably for the best that he hadn’t.  “  don’t you know it’s dangerous ?  that a monster like me could make quick work of you ?  not much grows underground  ...  ”  lips part for a moment to show how her tongue swipes over canines.  then,  something close to a purr rumbles in her throat.

        “  kidding  ...  did i give you a fright,  little human ?  ”

        “  WAIT !  ”  he hadn’t anticipated others in this domain.  once those abyss order pests had cleared from it,  gold had intended to take a look at the irminsul tree & gather some samples.  except  ---  now they have company.  rhine’s typical cool demeanor had given way to panic at the sight of this person.  

        “  those things are ancient.  they’ll turn to dust if you’re not careful  ... ”

        “  it’s  ---  okay.  please don’t worry about it.  these things can be replaced.  ”  azure eyes trail to the shattered beaker before returning to them,  a quiet smile curling his lips.  “  you’re not cut or anything ?  ”

        HER STUDENT IS DOING WELL --- that much rhine can tell as she watches the goings - on of mondstadt’s alchemy shop.  he even has his own assistants now.  how could she not be proud ?  yet,  the alchemist slips back into the shadows,  calling them to her,  just before he turns his head.  though rhine keeps an eye on him,  the reality still stands that she’d abandoned him,  & for that she can’t return quite yet.  he has his mission,  & it will take him down a path entirely different from hers.  hopefully.

        when the shadows dispel,  rhine steps out by the tavern, angel’s share  ---

        ---  & directly into the path of a stranger.

        “  ah  ---  i’m  ...  sorry.  i didn’t see you there.  ”
