Happy Moonfire Faire!

anyway Grey took pity on me and made a sideblog for Lalanna's mentor who doesn't-know-he's-her-boyfriend-yet @eirlapideus. His story is adjusting so I too will adjust/have deleted some older posts and will fix accordingly.

Borte laughed, but it was not because she found Lalanna's frustration humorous. No, it was so relatable that she could not help but laugh. Prior to being brought into the Scions, it was rare that anyone would ask her about her homeland, and a part of her had always found it somewhat offensive. Was the Azim Steppe not interesting enough for these people? They could not have been there themselves, what could they truly know? How could they not be even a little curious?

She offered the fellow Oronir a sympathetic smile and gestured for her to continue.

Her eyes widened in growing interest the more Lalanna shared — she found the concept of the ground itself being purple to be incredibly fascinating in particular. It sounded like such a beautiful place, this Thavnair, and Borte found herself thinking she would like to see it for herself one day.

❝ It sounds like an incredible place… It's no wonder you miss it so much. ❞ Borte said. ❝ What was it like? Looking after Kat— Kadjaya's Footsteps? Was it hard work? ❞

[lalannaoronir]

"Not at all!" She felt a little embarrassed to confess that her one task did not require much effort, but she wasn't about to lie. "I mainly helped by keeping the place clean. The most difficult part vas dodging the vandering beasts on the vay up there. But I oft rode one of our Hamsa birds there, and they did a good job avoiding danger on their own."

She sighed wistfully, her thoughts going to the twin scabbards strapped to her back.

"I did not used to fight back then. I had no need of such knowledge," she shook her head, brow pinching. "But traveling in this Eorzea is too dangerous not to learn."

Realizing now that talking of it had brought her comfort, she looked up at Borte, eager to return the favor.

"Ah, but tell me of the Steppe! I know a bit, but only from my father's memory. And he has not returned since he followed my mother back to Thavnair," she enthused. "And my brother is terrible at sharing any interesting details. How big is it? I can never get an idea of the scale -- is it larger than here, than Mor Dhona?"

"--Selena!" Damn it, if she was going to push Lalanna out of the way, why wouldn't she be quick enough to get herself out of the way as well? "Hang on!"

This wouldn't do. She couldn't let the teenager die -- not on her watch! She rushed back over, dodging swats from the tentacles of the enraged malboro, until she could grab hold of Selena's shirt. She yanked her back, the poor girl's body stiff from all of the poisons that the monster's bad breath had inflicted upon her.

"Stay back! Don't move, I'll finish it!"

Eulalia & Endymion

[lalannaoronir]

I am getting lazy and also cannot draw, but Eulalia's true form is similar to that of Yuna's Floral Fallal and Endymion's true form is similar to Payne's Full Throttle. And the twins would attach to each other like a weird fucking bug to fight.

Dymi is a mix of a millipede and praying mantis.

Eulalia is a mix fo a butterfly and spider.

Eulalia & Endymion: The Tragedy Of Poor Timing

After spending their entire childhoods together, Eulalia was sent to Akademia Anyder at age fifteen, which is around the time Endymion began to join his father at Pandaemonium. They were apart for a decade before being able to properly reunite... and six months after that reunion, the Final Days unfolded.

-

While attending Akademia Anyder, Eulalia had a crush on an upperclassman; unfortunately, he graduated before she could work up the nerve to speak with him. He also didn't really disclose where he was going after graduation, at least not from what she could snoop out. She had hoped to run into him in Elpis, but he wasn't there.

While working in Pandaemonium, Endymion developed feelings for a woman who worked as a messenger between the researchers in Elpis. Shortly after meeting her a few times, she perished at the hands of a wayward Creation that ran rampant and needed to be put down. This only pushed Endymion to be more protective, especially of his sister, and more dedicated to his position as as warder of Pandaemonium.

--

In the Source, Lalanna was conceived shortly after her parents arrived in Thavnair. A year later, her mother Darshana was pregnant again -- but miscarried while working for the Radiant Host. The soul of this child would have grown up to be the Source's shard of Endymion. Instead, two more years later, Darshana gave birth to Malachai, her younger brother [but not the same soul].

In the Fourth, Beetle had a little sister -- the Fourth's shard of Eulalia who perished in the events that led them to fall through a small rift and into the Source. [To be added to when we get more details in Evercold!] The trauma from all of this as well as general blunt force trauma from landing in the ocean by Limsa Lominsa affects Beetle's memory.

These twins' souls so far condemned to never truly spend their lives together finally managed to beat the odds when they found each other as part of the Scions of the Seventh Dawn in the Source.

[lalannaoronir]

In the World Unsundered, the creation of new life always had a process. It was expected, even normalized, for Ancients who wished to procreate to do so with a certain amount of control over their resulting offspring:

It was easier to raise a child with assistance, and so multiple Ancients (often but not limited to a pair) would work together to craft a youthful, little being that embodied their desires. It took time but it produced the exact results they embodied.

Some Ancients, however, found it more exciting to produce offspring in a more spontaneous manner. They would choose to combine their genetic material with one or more partners and choose a host to birth the child from their bodies physically. Such a process was viewed as strange and unsettling by many, but quaint by others. Inefficient but more unique -- for better or for worse.

The twins Eulalia and Endymion were a pair brought into existence through a natural birth, brought into the world by a pair of eccentric but brilliant Ancients who were thrilled to yield a "matching set" rather than a single child.

Achillus, a Warder in Pandæmonium, and his partner Pantocles, an Elpis researcher who specialized in protective wards, were ever-pushing each other to achieve more and more. This was reflected in how they raised their children to do the same. The twins, too, absorbed their parents' strong bond: always playing together and rarely spending any time apart, even in the presence of others.

Eulalia was a bright child who took to Creation magick quickly, embodying her parents' intense drive and desire to succeed. Endymion was more drawn to Pantocles' defensive magick, but also was encouraged by Achillus to follow in his footsteps and become a Keyward one day. This combination nurtured in him a very protective personality, well-suited to his future profession and also to looking after Eulalia.

The twins were inseparable -- until the day they were not. Eulalia attended Akadaemia Anyder, initially studying under the Words of Loghrif before switching to focus on the Words of Lahabrea. Endymion essentially followed his father Achillus to work one day and did not return home, learning the ins and outs of Pandaemonium. The twins were apart for the years Eulalia spent pursuing her education, which was extra long after she decided to switch her research focus. But finally, upon her graduation, she decided to take up a position in Elpis to be closer to her brother.

Eulalia's position was that of a caretaker of the creatures in Elpis, with her one crowning achievement being the creation of Petaloudas: butterfly-like creatures initially meant to act as messengers for short distances. She would often visit Endymion while he was at work, which wouldn't entirely be permitted save for him always being there to escort her.

The twins were beyond pleased to reunite and spent time with each other every day. But when the Final Days began to descend upon the star, Endymion shirked his duties at Pandaemonium to take his sister home to Amaurot to be with their parents. The two sadly perished together when fleeing from the monsters that assaulted the beautiful city.

❝ You really think so? It felt intense at the time, but I wasn't sure if that was true or if it was just me being me… ❞

She leaned closer as she spoke, immersed in conversation. It would have saddened her to learn that Lalanna felt foolish for her complaints — especially when she herself was prone to complaining about her poor circumstances even when there were others much worse off.

❝ I'm sure there is a way to get a better handle on these visions. ❞ She reassured her. ❝ And if anyone can figure it out, surely it is the Scions. ❞

Her own heart ached as she watched the fellow xaela. Though it was a bit complicated for her, homesickness was something that she could absolutely relate to. Not a day went by that she didn't think of the Steppe, of the Dawn Throne. She placed a comforting hand upon Lalanna's shoulder, gently squeezing.

❝ Could you tell me about your home? ❞ She asked. She offered a soft smile, shrugging her shoulders. ❝ I'm not sure if it's the same for you, but whenever I find myself missing home, it comforts me to talk about it. ❞ 

[lalannaoronir]

At Borte's invitation, Lalanna let out an almost aggravated sigh of relief.

"You know? It does!" she nodded, brow furrowing. "You vould think that for people across the sea vould be eager to hear of such things! But nobody's asked me at all! And I am certain nobody else has been there!"

She pouted, folding her arms before she went on, expression softening.

"Thavnair is an island, mostly, rising out of Bounty. It is smaller than Eorzea, much, but it does not feel that vay upon it. The region is rich in giantsgall, so the ground itself begins as a deep purple color and the plants and mountains rise out of that. And it is hot -- so much more than here." She closed her eyes. "And the sea is so blue. Brighter than the vaters here. My village is not far from the mainland. I live on a collection of floating homes built upon docks and ve vere so close, I svam there every day."

She opened her eyes and sighed once more, more wistful.

"There is an open-air stage on the mainland. It is called Kadjaya's Footsteps, and it is dedicated to a famous dancer. I vas vone of the people who helped to look after it. Before this damn echo, that vas all I really had to vorry about in my life. I vas happy vith who I vas and vhat I vanted to do...until that damn starshower."

"I vill shake my head! Splitting vill be quicker, aye, but ve cannot take the risk. The deeper ve go, the stronger the beasts are here. And I am not going to return to the Scions and explain you died because I allowed a teenager to run around the Palace of the Dead alone!"

PROMPTS FROM THE LITTLE MERMAID *  assorted dialogue from the 1989 film, adjust as necessary

i can't make out a heartbeat.

this has got to be, without a doubt, the single most humiliating day of my life.

look! he's breathing. he's so beautiful.

you really delight in these sadistic strains on my blood pressure, don't you?

a girl rescued me.

she was singing. she had the most beautiful voice.

i think you've swallowed a bit too much seawater.

we're just gonna forget this whole thing ever happened.

hmm. teenagers. they think they know everything. you give them an inch, they swim all over you.

my nerves are shot! this is a catastrophe!

don't you shake your head at me.

now look at me.

you'll have your looks, your pretty face. and don't underestimate the importance of body language.

i'm surrounded by amateurs.

you want something done, you've got to do it yourself.

first we've got to create the mood.

if only i could make him understand.

i just don't see the way he does.

i just don't see how a world that makes such wonderful things could be bad.

look at this stuff. isn't it neat?

i just don't know what we're going to do with you.

it was ruined! that's all! completely destroyed!

now thanks to you, i am the laughingstock of the entire kingdom!

you went up to the surface again, didn't you?

how many times must we go through this?

they are dangerous.

i'm not a child anymore.

don't you take that tone of voice with me.

if you would just listen...

so much for true love!

i consider myself a reasonable person.

i set certain rules, and i expect those rules to be obeyed.

is it true you rescued a human from drowning?

he would have died.

one less human to worry about.

you don't even know him.

know him? i don't have to know him. they're all the same.

have you lost your senses completely?

the solution to your problem is simple.

the only way to get what you want is to become a human yourself.

gee, you must have really been through something.

i can't stand it. it's too easy!

i'm really looking forward to this performance.

listen to me. the human world is a mess.

are you sure about this?

have i ever been wrong? i mean, when it's important?

this... i haven't seen in years.

do you think i was too hard on her?

we haven't dicussed the subject of payment.

i'm not asking much. just a token really, a trifle. you'll never even miss it.

life's full of tough choices, isn't it?

do you hear what i'm telling you?

i hope that you appreciate what i go through for you.

you gotta look your best.

you gotta bat your eyes. you gotta pucker your lips.

you are hopeless. you know that? completely hopeless.

i've never seen a human this close before. he's very handsome, isn't he?

i'm going inside.

have you noticed she's been acting peculiar lately?

i know you've been keeping something from me.

i feel really bad not knowing your name. maybe i can guess it.

you're under a lot of pressure down here. come with me, i'll take you home and get you something warm to drink.

any sign of them?

what have i done?

isn't this great? the salty sea air, the wind blowing in your face. a perfect day to be at sea.

perhaps you haven't been looking hard enough.

believe me, when I find her, i'll know. without a doubt it'll just... bam, hit me like lightning.

time to come out. you've been in there all morning.

where are you going?

she's a demon! she's a monster!

there's something different.

i lost her once! i'm not gonna lose her again!

you've gotta get away from here.

no, i won't leave you!
