Itβs not the whisper of a hymn or a hallowed prayer, but the breath of a dying melody curled along the oracleβs tongue in a hushed hum.Β β Would you have time to partake in a sightseeing walk with me, Luna ? Β Thereβs a lovely spot not far from the town. It is but a short carriage ride away. β β @moonichor
i. Β Β tenebraeβs native tongue is based on icelandic and french.
ii. Β Β luna is not gifted in drawing, and frankly is horrible at it, but it still belongs to one of her hobbies, along with journaling and gardening. Β she tends to more abstract painting, simply for a creative outlet that requires not much technical skill.
iii. Β Β her artistic affiliation is rather defined by singing, which is more a religious practice as oracle, hence there is only rarely a personal attachment and pride in her angelic voice. Β she can barely tend to her favorites of traditional tenebraen folk songs and naturally has to participate in choirs and sacred ceremonies.Β as a child, she began to despise singing, and wouldβve continued so, had there not been a few examples she could sing in private : Β 1 Β / Β 2 Β / Β 3.
iv. Β Β that car scene in kingsglaive where she would take control of the wheel was improvised. Β she doesnβt have a license.
v. Β Β she had a grandmother called freyja and was named after her.
vi. Β Β she favors perfumes with mild floral scents, not too sweet or overwhelming, uses them as per her mood, not necessarily the same every day, and tends to experiment. Β one day she wears fragrance made from sylleblossom extracts, on another one from lilies or jasmine.
vii. Β Β it is evident that she does not keep sylleblossoms in her room at all times.Β perchance the decoration varies from blue poppies, gentianas, or yellow / purple oxeye daisies, whatever the seasons provide. Β
viii. Β Β while she is most often seen in white or silvery dresses, she does like to wear black or blue as well.
ix.Β Β Β for the most part, obviously, her relationship with niflheimβs military is one of suspicion and hostility.Β however, there was one soldier who stood watch over her not very long after the invasion, guarded her closely and soon became more a father she never had.Β the one exception she made in terms of trusting the wrong side.Β the crescent-shaped pendant is an item he gifted to her on her 16th birthday.Β one day, he vanished, and luna was left alone with a report of him to be presumed dead.
x.Β Β Β if there is an alternative timeline where luna survives, she would return to a shorter haircut.

Β βΒ though you faltered, you survived all of it.Β many a man would not emerge from despair again. underestimate yourself not. β // @reginrokkr

Send π for a random headcanon I have about our muses.@moonichor universe : versus xiii
1 )Β when they were little, stella would often follow luna around and mimic everything she did. from picking flowers to memorizing religious, heck she even started wearing white when she was a child because her pretty lunar sister did. naturally, if luna was to given attention to any other kid close to stellaβs age, the star princess would surely sulk. needless to say, as children they were still pretty close to one another. iβm sure there were times where they shared the same bed and ate sweets together when no one was watching. not to mention the many joyous little pranks they might do teaming up against their older brother. as little children, they would definitely play dress up together and talk about their fairy-tales happy endings (clearly not yet understanding how unfair life will one day be ). but nevertheless, before stellaβs accidents they were very close and super happy as siblings.
2 ) unfortunately all good things must end, and as you know the two sisters would eventually be separated. luna and ravus likely did not know that stella woke up from her coma until monthsΒ afterwards. and even then, it wasnβt until they saw her again that they were cautioned not to bring up the subject of their parents out of fear she would break down and repress even more memories. it was likely a very difficult first reunion and it was obvious this stella was not the same little stella that used to follow her sister around. nevertheless, stella would try her best to get close to her siblings and learn all that she could about them. even if stella is having a hard time adjusting herself, she would try to get luna to cheer up and smile because her sister is much more beautiful when her lips matches the crescent of the moon. she might not be able to give luna the same flower as she did when she was younger, but the first thing stella painted for luna was that of her favorite flower. she still remembers.
3 ) once stella tried to get luna to be more tech-savy, insisted that emails are much more faster and even tried to get luna to use the most modern phone. luna, however, preferred the tenebrae nokiaΒ traditional phone that lacked the modern functions. needless to say, stellaβs attempt to make luna moreΒ βup-to-dateβ failed completely and out of pettiness stella would instead writeΒ correspondence to luna rather than just call her. hilariously enough, luna is completely fine with it and probably prefers the handwritten sentiments rather then the digital messages. letters from stella consist mainly of her complaining about her day to day, the most ridiculous over-exaggeration, and frankly iβm sure even luna would face palm at her sisterβs terrible lack of financial control.
4 ) stella and luna totally shit-talks about people lol.
5 ) once stella tried to teach luna how to paint the dog form of pryna, and when they showed it to gentiana, gentiana complimented lunaβs cloud.
6 ) the two of them are quite protective of each other, and anyone who courts their sister must first pass a few of their criteria. stella, unfortunately does not play fair, and gives anyone who looks at her sister the hardest time ever. she may not be as bad as ravus, but she is certainly his sister lol.
7 ) these two sister love each other unconditionally and would in fact sacrifice each otherβs happiness so that the other can be happy.Β
8 ) lol at that realization that these two are pawns to two asshole king of gods ---- who probably have beef since the cosmos cant handle two asshole king of gods who wants to control everything. so weβre just pretending that everyone is totally okay and that it wonβt end so terribly right. nothing bad is going to happen right ? bahamut and bhunivelze can totally co-exist and not drag their favorite pawns into depressing stuff... right..
9 )Β number 5 is my favorite.

ππππ ππππ // there is strength in softness and no one knows this better than you. no one knows cruelty it took for you to learn to be so vulnerable. your sensitivity is your armor. you refuse to let the world crush you. you refuse to stop seeing beauty in broken things. you will always look for the light in the darkness. people underestimate you. they think you are far too delicate. but they don't know your gentleness was forged from hardship. there are depths beneath your smiles no one will know. when was the last time you did let someone know, though ? when was the last time you let yourself cry, when was the last time you didn't bury your anger ? you're more than what you give to others.

upon the stone of the chosen site for rest had minor struggles manifested.Β with slight amusement conducting her laugh did she assist ;Β ropes tied to knots, poles pillared against, covers succumbed to her neat tug.Β it was a clumsy little ordeal, but a cheerful one as well, she noted, as blankets unfurled within the interior of this tent-shelter. Β Β β it is not so bothersome.Β i understand my position, the distance between them and me, and it would be unfair to not acknowledge that, for plenty of the people, to address me so is an expression of respect, but formalities are not a strict requirement for me.Β to foster relations with allies on a personal basis and equal grounds can be a wonderful thing, too. βΒ Β to unravel her own stance in a matter that exposed her lonesome did not come with ease. Β in all the reverence called she herself anything but admirable, not by far could she qualify as a noble-driven figurehead ;Β yet mused every story the same thing :Β somewhere, somehow, someone must manufacture softness to a crown and compassion to a shepherdβs crook.Β Β β nonetheless, i am curious, and particularly worried, about your circumstances.Β how is it that a young boy such as you is committing to such dangerous tasks ?Β is there no guardian who would be concerned for your safety ? β // @hamadaxfighter

Β that if you can't be what they need, if you can't be the pillar for Β others to lean on, they'll leave you. what you seek is home, a safe Β place to rest and be taken care of. and little light, you deserve it. Β you have earned it. you are worth more than what you can provide for Β others : Β Β you deserve the same care you so freely give out. Β they will love Β you all the same, honey.
