✞ —- for thoughts about my muses relationship with religion

Ellaria worships a Lysene love goddess that GRRM doesn't give a name so I took the love goddess from Skyrim and named her Mara. 

She does know of the 7 and will proclaim "seven hells" but she places her faith in Mara.

☼ —- for a happy thought/idea/theory

Ellaria loves being a mother. She loves that Oberyn gave her daughters. She didn't dread bearing a child, she was excited for it. She spoiled Elia silly when she had her and for the first time Oberyn had competition for her attention.

☠ —- for how i think my muse would die

This is a tricky one cause she's not really a threat. She can't really be used as a pawn or a threat cause she's a bastard. I would say there's three likely scenarios:

1.) She dies of old age. I would say she's one of the "lucky" ones, but think about it. She has to grow old and die without Oberyn.

2.) She dies protecting her daughters, offering to die in their place.

3.) She dies as an 'innocent bystander' as in Hellholt getting burned to the ground by a dragon.

☣ —- for my muses fears

She fears the death of her family. That she will be alone without them. She no longer fears death, but instead fears pain that will not be ended by death. She fears suffering most of all, whether it emotional or physical.

☾ —- for my muses sleeping habits/quirks/etc

For some reason I developed this habit with her where she's a light sleeper and often gets up in the middle of the night. I think its her motherly instincts, she's so used to being fully prepared to get up in the night from when her girls were babes it never really went away. 

When she shares the bed with Oberyn she does like contact. He would probably be able to tell she's upset if she's not touching him in some way while asleep. She tends to spread her legs out so they typically end up crossed over Oberyn.

She also can't stand sleeping flat on her back.

♥ —- for thoughts/ideas about my muses love life/romantic relationships

Awwe okay lets come up with new stuff.

Oberyn wasn't her first love. There was a boy in the market, a girl in her mother's whorehouse, and again another young man who would get her water for her from the well. Her mother often told her she fell in love too quickly, which made Ellaria attempt to steal herself. Of course when she met Oberyn that all shattered. (She also didn't instantly fall for Oberyn, he had to work a little for it. She wasn't impressed by his title)

As I've said, when Ellaria realized she was in love with Oberyn she didn't tell him. She was afraid he would take her to mean she loved him as a prince, as everyone was encouraged to love the prince. She fell in love with the man not his title.
