getting a grasp on things after going on a very long spiritual retreat (also the implications of his worry extending to the fact that he probably unintentionally hurt prophecy LOL)
To our little blessing,
It filled us with such relief to hear that you had arrived at the capital of the summer kingdom. I remember it having much less sow than you're used to when your father and I had visited in our youth! Hopefully you are finding ways to cool down, you always ran warm. The cold never bothered you much!
Your letter mentioned hatching a dragon?! Did you get the letter mixed up with a fantasy novel? I remember reading tales of dragonriders from my youth, but I've never seen or known anyone who actually believed it!
If it was a joke, its a cruel one to play on your own mother! But if it's real… I have always wanted to see what the Auburn Grotto looked like from above… Just don't tell your father, you know how he worries! I know that creature will be in the best care with you, you always had a fondness for helping those in need, especially the little things who couldn't stand up for themselves.
Things in Tegrith are fine, we are currently living mostly in the mountains. Some of the people are at the town, but we have made the call to keep the children and
anyone who doesn't need to be outside, in the mountains. The corruption hasn't come much closer, since we have kept our distance, and put warnings around to stop people going nearby, it seems to have kept its slow pace it had at the winter, but we aren't sure for how long it'll stay dormant. Have you had any luck in trying to find a way to remove it? I know you must have a lot on your plate with learning everything you are, and i apologize if you feel like youre out of your element at all, your father and I traveled so much in our youth, and I'm sorry that we
didn't get to give you that experience as well.
I'm so glad to hear that Pyro is there! It's been years since we last seen him, I hope he's doing well. I know you and him had your issues in the past, but hopefully you both reconnecting as adults might allow you to reignite the friendship you once had. Watching you both play together as kids are some of my fondest memories, I've never seen two people be so opposite, yet compliment each other as much as you two did i your good moments. I hope you don't mind, but I mentioned to Dalia & Al
that you ran into Pyro at the academy, so they were hoping you'd be able to pass on a letter to him from them, they were so relieved to hear anything about him as it's been a while since they last heard from him. Iga also misses you, she's asked a few times when you are returning, she misses the height she gets "flying" while on your shoulders haha, others have tried many times, but everyone gets met with a "you don't get me as high up as Scott." before she gives up and goes to do something else haha, she's a real firecracker!
I know you won't be able to keep in us regular contact, but it was so lovely to hear from you, so please do keep us updated when you are able. Everyone here misses you dearly, and not only because some of the guys have had to take up multiple other shifts to make up for the work you used to do when you were here!
We look forward to welcoming you home whenever that may be, be safe, be smart, and as always, help the people who need it most.
Okay I was watching one of Shelby’s vods and she said she wants to see people do creative things w the char designs and also TRIANGLES I LOVE TRIANGES so here’s a first pass that I def will keep working on
the letter Pyro received from his parents yesterday
I've been waiting for smth like this for so long I could cry. tfpyro realizing his parents don't resent him... that they believe in him and are waiting for him to return when he's ready..... highly recommend listening to pyro read it because him sounding on the verge of tears adds so much to it
"Be the hearth in summer nights that grow colder by the year" is also definitely something tfpyro is going to carry with him. It's clear that it's something he's been wanting to strive for but is struggling with because he's literally in the middle of a war, but I'm really excited to see where it goes... after all fire doesn't have to be a destructive force
one of the best parts of making up increasingly wild and specific aus with a friend is sending them posts like "this is sooo blorbo in torture chamber au number 15" and they reply back like "YESSS btw have i told you about my latest idea for how to torture them even more" and you get to enjoy a little snack and kick your feet with glee
