beetle 2810 Popular Post Share Posted June 3, 2023 Spoiler Rosalind’s heart was heavy with guilt, burdened by the weight of the lies she had said and the debts she had carried. Every day had become a battle, as the guilt gnawed at her conscience, eroding her sense of self-worth. She felt trapped, suffocated by the consequences of her actions. All of this had brought the princess to a cliff, watching waves crash against the jagged rocks below her. This was her way of seeking redemption in the world’s eyes, perhaps her peers and the All-Father would forgive her. She didn’t want to bring any more shame to her people or her nation. — "We are expected to keep up appearances." The 'fenn affirms with a few light nods. "But in private Rosalind, we are just people." He reminds her, "You can be a beacon all you wish, but a lighthouse keeper is given a set amount of oil when he arrives. He cannot burn all that oil in one night and expect the ships to navigate by his light once it's out, only having a premise of where it was before." He continued, "We must cry with our people sometimes.. We must cry on our own sometimes. Don't burn all your oil at once Rosalind, or like the lighthouse keeper your flame will die out, and you shall freeze to death in its absence." — But she couldn't cry with her people, her friends, or fellow peers. The fire in her was gone, the oil ran out - Rosalind was no longer bright. Without hesitation, Rosa stepped forward, her balance becoming unstable on the edge. She closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and let her troubled thoughts wash over her one final time. And so, the princess took the plunge.

carebear 448 Share Posted June 3, 2023 Calla Veiel stood on a beach, tears falling down her cheeks. All that ran through her mind was the last conversation she had with her dear friend, wishing she could take back her harsh words. "Rosa... I'm so sorry I couldn't protect you." She spoke to the air, praying that somehow Rosalind could hear her. Inside a house, a toddler played with a doll given to her by the Princess, blissfully unaware of her Aunt's passing. 8 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Itz_Cookie 1735 Share Posted June 3, 2023 She had abandoned her friends so many years ago, although how they might've felt never settled within her mind; until now. Staring out over the water as nothing but childhood memories flooded her mind, and tears flooded her cheeks. The circlet, gifted to her by the Princess, was slipped from her head and held tightly against her chest. "Rosalind.." Isavella's head bowed for only a moment, tiling back as she stared into the blazing sun, glistening from sweat and tears beneath its rays. Nothing more was uttered as she kneeled at the shore; alone and crying. Cold eyes met the Princess', uttering words to the woman before they turned and walked their own separate ways. "The world will break you, or it will forge you into something greater." She uttered to herself upon hearing of the Princess' passing. A scoff followed before the interaction was all but forgotten. 10 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

annanicole__ 1559 Share Posted June 3, 2023 As soon as the news that her closest friend had passed away reached her, the Queen of Balian lit a candle and placed it in her window. "Mitras, be with Rosalind." Andromeda puts on her mourning robe and offers a silent prayer for her cherished friend as she prepares for the coming days. 9 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deets 682 Share Posted June 3, 2023 An elderly Waldenian frowned deeply as the news of Rosalind's death reached him. Although much younger than he, the young royal had always impressed him with her desire to do good for her people. A bottle, almost as old as he, was retrieved, carrying with it the memories from his own youth in Norland. After a few long drinks of the liquid within, the Waldenian could only state, "To Prinzessin Rosalind." 10 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
XoxoMinnieXoxo 406 Share Posted June 3, 2023 Asleon Rivelwynn, a former personal guard for Rosalind went through the stages of grieve in a span of minutes from hearing the news. His icy purple orbs grew glossy from the tears welled within them as the man paced back and forth non-stop until his legs buckled beneath him. The 'Fenn, wept into his palms, "Kaean ciwndion'ito omentereyae" He whispered, as in translation speaks, may we meet in the long slumber. 9 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tremerus 274 Share Posted June 3, 2023 (edited) A younger Waldenian is saddened to hear the news of his close friend's passing. The first of the group, and he'd pray it'd be the last for quite some time. He'd set out to find his betrothed in the hopes of comforting her through such a difficult time. During his journey he'd swear to do a better job of protecting those close to him and to help shoulder whatever burdens may face them.

TheBigBubbles 711 Share Posted June 3, 2023 A young 'princling', or maybe not so young any longer, gasped upon hearing the news. Alf hadn't known the princess for long, but nevertheless, he'd fostered what he believed to be quite a connection with her on first meet. Alf rushed to his fiance's chambers, the Princess Morrigan Arthalion. Alf rapped on the door, "She's gone... Morri. Vesta's friend..." the fellow reached into his sleeve for a red handkerchief which he'd dab under his eyes with "I should have done more, should have made more of an effort to know her, I should have done something" Spoiler @Azzy_Daddy 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tav 1393 Share Posted June 3, 2023 Alva stood there, in the midst of processing this lost of her dear sister. "You're lying." "You wouldn't do that, Rosa."She said in her empty room, lofting a palm to her face - stifling her weeps. 12 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
marslol 672 Share Posted June 3, 2023 Stowed away in the depths of a cave, a witch sat hunched over a corpse - bones and flesh molding and melting in her hands, as meat was ever so gracefully shoved into her mouth. The metallic creak from her blackplate knights shifted as did she - blackened claws pausing in the midst of digging into the core of whomever's body she was feasting over. Curls of charred ebony fell past tense shoulders with glazed eyes staring out to the entrance - all but a lantern illuminated the red that dripped from her lips. "Something just happened ..." 13 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maevlin 681 Share Posted June 3, 2023 Vesta Gwenyth had written a letter to Rose, informing her she had safely made it to a different continent and begun her travels. Only later did that letter return with the missive. "Oh Rose, I will miss our drinks and the friendship we shared. May you find peace beyond." She murmurs as she leaves a little marking along the road she walked, a carved rose protected once more. 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
