  1. Amaya stood there with tears running down her features, evidently shaken to the core. It was hardly an image I could handle. Seeing her in that state only brought further dread to that building knot within my stomach, threatening to push my luncheon of goat milk and pitepalt back up. She was too much like her mother, too much like her grandfather. Was she fit to be Queen? I did not doubt it. But, that feeling of uncertainty of whether or not she would be loved back as she will love lingered. Competency was something none of the Colborns lacked during my time, but the question of being admired by all is something that I know Ada lacked, someone whose nature was so similar to that of Amaya’s: stubborn, curious, heroic, and determined. It could be both her strength and weakness. “You must remember our motto, little raven.” It is all I could do. All I could remind her of as I reached forth to brush back an ebony-colored lock from her temple. She looked so much like Ada, with her strong cheekbones and sturdy nose. “Family through fire. No longer shall only the Colborn be your kin, but all of Haense and her people. You must protect them, care for them, and nurture them.” ____________ The air smelled pleasantly of honey and roses, consuming the atmosphere in its sickly sweetness. Plains of grassy fields with roses seemed endless, as a pond sat on the horizon in her paradise. Elia Eryka sat there with features soft in their youth, reverted as she lingered inside her personal oasis. From afar she saw the children who had already joined her, as well as her siblings and husband. They were always in eyesight, even in these moments of silent solace. In the winds carried her plethora of blueprints and jewelry designs which would never touch the mortal realm, drifting around her in idle futility. She was at peace as she dragged a piece of charcoal against parchment, copper curls hugging her features while a tender smile played at her lips. She was surrounded by her ensemble of eight goats, those who she ensured would join her in this afterlife. They were alerted swiftly, those eight goats, to something she yet comprehend. As they rose to their feet in a choir of harmonious bleats Elia could only turn her head and stare, bewilderment crossing her features. They tore through the clustered bushes and vines of roses, those which were so alike to the ones in Venzia. They shrieked and cried, rushing towards that sweetened scent of roses and soot. Amaya. A feeling of worry, grief, and joy instantly overwhelmed her - it was her, she was here. Without hesitation the woman arose, pushing through that greenery without care for the vines which entangled her hair and pulled at her skirts in resistance. She felt the tightness on her youthful flesh begin to fade, sagging with the years as that Colborn instantaneously aged. It was her daughter. With each heavy arc of her hand she palmed herself through, eyes wide with desperate for reunion once more, lips wavering in their timid trembles. Amaya was here, she was truly here. Did she live well? Did she drink goat milk? Where was she? ___________ I knew that these roses could come to cause me regret. I couldn’t help but surround myself with their fragrance, something I lacked while residing in the citadel for so long. I was fortunate enough that Arthur allowed me to grow them on the cliffside outside of Thurant. But she is here, she is finally here. My little raven, my daughter, Amaya. I knew of her reign and how she recalled every bit of wisdom she ever received, morphing it into insight of her own. She doubted herself yet persisted, and achieved a greatness many would hope for, but little would accomplish. She did not remind me of those she idolized, those she hoped to be. She was not like her mother, nor her more reserved kin. I had always forgotten who she reminded me of in her nature, but with the decades long passed in my paradise I had finally realized. If only I had known in the mortal realm. She reminded me of him, of my far-far-fadir, Adrian. In their kind and comforting essence, it was a rarity they were both blessed with. She was a true Colborn. ________ Then in a moment of sheer conviction Elia Eryka tore away that last bit of vine, pushing forth from the shadows. For a moment she was shocked, seeing the years which lined Amaya’s features and frame, all decorated with that tiara she crafted for her adoptive daughter ages ago. She was home, she was finally home -- and as she was passed off from Carolus she knew that her daughter waited for her, that she loved her as much as she did in return. A soft sob stuck in her throat, and with a wavering exhale she spoke: _________ “Dottir.”
  2. A Scorched van Leuven The Death of Adela Taronitissa van Leuven The cause of the fire was unknown, though it was furiously evident as it rose to great heights, scorching the walls and bursting the glass panes of framed windows. My leg throbbed with anguish for skin began to peel away from muscle and tissue below, fuming with the sickly scent of burnt flesh. I couldn’t feel the pain which surely coursed from it however, as I pivoted to the stairs in a flurry of misguided steps. Forcing through any disastrous fumbles I found the nursery in which half of my children rest: Mauhaut, Anton, and Eudoxia. They hacked as smog invaded their lungs, releasing in a chorus of exasperated breaths. No, no, no. The hearth blazed with the pooled remains of an evergreen curtain, continuously feeding the fire as it ate away at the surrounding memories - pictures, furniture, scrolls. The hundreds of items I’ve been surrounded with since my own later youth, devastated by the starvations of these ravaging flames. We will have to rebuild. As my twins clung to my flanks I continued to press forth toward the door, Eudoxia hugged to my bodice for her lungs were the youngest. As I neared the entrance the sight of curious and panicked others began to surround my household's exterior, yet none offered aid, none of the BSK were yet in sight. With every strength I could muster through my core I pivoted, seeking to thrash my clinging children to whatever kind stranger remained outdoors. For now I must depart, yet my feet still, and the hesitation overwhelms me. I need an excuse, an excuse to leave, an excuse to step outside, an excuse to remain ins-... The relics. How could I forget? The sharp discomfort in my leg became more evident now as I twisted away from the door, thundering towards the cellar with haggard gasps, smoke depriving me of both mind and air. I could only think of the future and past, for the present lay disastrous in its torment. All my mother had fought for, all that Priscilla had fought for, all my grandmother and great aunts had fought for. The door already began to crumble in its charred state, allowing for the easy grip of trembling digits as I began to tear away at whatever remained of silver hinges. I could only thank GOD in haste murmurs for the cobblestone walls sweat in its protective state, deprived of flames though intense with unforgiving humidity. My hands bled now with previous efforts, but gathered whatever they may in eyesight. Anything and everything of relevance: family heirlooms, family history, our personal belongings. It had to survive, it was the blueprint to our life, to our future. Ratibor. How could I be so selfish? He was home. I felt a newfound burst of adrenaline pump through my calves, allowing me to rush through the house once more with a crate of gathered items in hand, my scorched skirts flourished with panicked pace. Only moments could be spared as I came across the door once more - the sight of three sobbing children kept at bay by strangers. In a mournful shriek I alerted my dearest son, Anton, and tossed the box to him from within - few items of lesser relevance scattered near the entry, but it mattered naught now. Was that burnt flesh that embraced his cheeks? I must find their father. The sound of groaning wood echoed inside the house, as the wails of merciless flames continued to consume everything around me. I could only focus on finding Ratibor, my love, my partner, my life. As I carried along through that maze of death and fire, my heart patterned with exertion, my energy dwindling. Something soft felt on my soles, beneath pillars of rubble. Ratibor? The sight of a mangled body filled my vision, grotesque with twisted limbs and peeling flesh, features churned in a horrific display. He was alive, he had to be. I grabbed onto him, feeling the warmth of boiling blood as I pulled and heaved, the sounds of groans and wails around me turning into screams. Please, do not leave me, do not leave. I cannot step outside with you, be my shield as you promised, be my foundation. Creaa-... Bang. I felt the intense pressure of rubble atop of me, piercing into my body as I became pinned to the floor. Pain erupted throughout my entire being, embedding me with its memory and stain, it was torment. It burned, it hurt, it was merciless. Ratibor was dead, I was deceived by hope. I was dead. Did GOD grace him with swift death unlike my own? As the feeling of life slipped from my frame, I could only think of seven things-... Adelina, Elliot, Junien, Eilys, Mahaut, Anton, Eudoxia. As light filled the space before me, I stood before a large paradise filled to the brim of fellow Canonists, those who paraded on the clouds above. Beside me was the warm hand of Ratibor, lips placed into a kind smile, and together we stepped forth into the embrace of warmth and GOD. No longer did the outside strangle me with fear, I was freed. __________________________________________ THE OBITUARY OF ADELA TARONITISSA VAN LEUVEN 485-521||1932-1968 __________________________________________________ **In Loving Memory of Adela Taronitissa van Leuven** Adela Taronitissa, a beloved wife, mother, sister, and friend, passed away tragically in a fire alongside her devoted husband.

  4. In the afterlife, a woman with her herd of goats waited. Although Liridona was not of blood, she was a Colborn. Family. When given the time to see that woman once more, she smiled. ”Out of all of the gems I have seen, with all their perfections and flaws,” The late Curator of Crown Jewels began. “You were one of the strongest.”

  10. Silently an ancient woman of Waldenian origins sat upon the comforts of the seven skies, often gazing at a lifetime in what seemed like mere hours for her. This was how she fulfilled her time, having naught anyone to spend her paradise with. It was one day she sought to focus on that eccentric Waldenian youth, watching his life unfold before her very eyes. By the end of it all tears coursed down pale cheeks as the nimble woman wept. Eva Anna von Rovin, Queen of the Westerlands was touched. She felt joy for that stranger, she felt fear for that stranger, she at times felt envious of that stranger. What a loving and well-spent life she thought. She needed a break and for the next few decades she drew herself into isolation, only after making brief request her son Saint Caius would bless the man’s dynasty. What a charming life that man had lived.

  12. Somewhere in peaceful retirement an aged elfess with mixed hair of ginger and silver reflected on the past. She had heard of the ker’s death three days prior, isolating herself to a strict routine of fishing in the lakes of Petra and drinking a variety of wine. However, one hopeful morning of fishing was rather quiet and she a thumb brushed along the underneathe of her eyes it was coated in moisture as evidence of her mourning.
  13. Adela Taronitissa, smiled, finally retiring from the courts herself to be both a family and business woman. Amaya would be the only Queen she served, unfortunately. But as she looked to her firstborn child, she knew they would pick up the stead and serve the next upcoming generation of strong monarchs. @Dramatude
  14. Adela Taronitissa, distant relative with the Baron, knit her brows. “I see..” She murmured, uncertain if the Godunov was walking a thin tripwire of treason.
