The sheets under him were soft and comfortable, though the pillow supporting his head was a bit damp. His eyes cracked open in the bright light of the room, squinting as his head turned. A taller man sat at his bedside, deeper voice greeting him,”Morning, Ailmar. You get enough sleep yet?” His brother asked, and Ailmar tugged at the bindings around his limbs. “Would be easier if you took these off.” He grumbled drowsily, voice low and throat dry.

 

“You know I can’t do that. You were down in that cave a while, you know. The doctors-“

 

“The doctors cured me. Cut out big chunks of me to do it… I’m fine, Aroen. I’ll b fine. And I’m ready to get out of this damned bed.” He cut his older brother off, head turning from the candle across the room. “It’s not too late to get Renelia back together. With the two of us leading, nothing can stop us.”

 

“I’ll talk to them about it when I get the chance. Though ti, we’ll need to deal with that girl and get the family back together. Lunela, Deldrach, maybe even Aya. Haelun. The good ones, at least. Rabid dogs… What an assassination attempt.” A grin formed on his brother’s face, and Ailmar swatted in his general direction. Stopped by the sweat dampened bindings. “The Velulaei’onn brothers are back together again. Nothing can stop us!” Ailmar’s grin widened.

 

The door creaked open, and the two men looked toward it.

The doctor opened the door, and looked down at the struggling ex Archon with a frown. Drool soaked his pillow, and blood dripped from his wrists and ankles from his wild thrashing. Even in the dim room, the robe clad woman could clearly see Ailmar’s bloodshot gaze locked on her. Lips peeled back in a furious snarl. The muscle around the bites had been cut away- but it had been too little, too late.

 

“Good morning, Ailmar. We found your sons, last night. They said they’d be here by noon.” She got a growl and weak grunt in return, going to set her metal tray on the empty chair beside him. It held a syringe and two small jars, blissfoil and tippen’s root. She picked up the syringe in her gloved hands, beginning to fill it with the tippen’s root. “This should help you feel a bit better, llir. Just try to relax. I’ll put the blissfoil on your neck here.”

 

All she got in response was mindless snarls and teeth snapping at nothing.

 

 

The door opened again, a familiar face once again standing there. “Mal’onn, the doctors said you were ready to go home.” With relative ease the former Archon stood up, and followed along with his brother. The twin Archons, former Mortal Kings and brothers, were finally together again.

OOC:

 

After the dissolution of Renelia it was time to put a stop to Ailmar’s arc. I started playing the persona when Renelia was first founded and haven’t dedicated myself as much to any other character ever since. It has been an absolute pleasure both playing the persona and leading Renelia, but there was no use left for the persona anymore, and the events above all lead up to the PK.
 

Special thanks to @ThatWeirdGirl for writing the PK post!

 

Another note, do not metagame this. The fact Ailmar had died is known to only two personas, both briefly mentioned up above. The events that lead up to his death (details of which were left out to avoid metagaming) are not known IRP.

This is an ooc response

I think it’s pretty clear what happened here. Rip the false king though, it was a good run

Vivyne mourned him.

Aiyana searched the old city where Ailmar was rumored to still reside, seeking out any signs of life. She left satisfied it was indeed empty.
