    Summary

    "You spoke of the cycle of life and death. If that holds true, if there is something beyond these mortal chains, then I hope we will meet again. Under different faces, different names, perhaps. You said our souls would know one another. In that case…

    I hope to meet you by the sea.”

    Or: A young soldier seizes what she wants, and dives eyes wide open into the slow choking of the people she loves. An ancient soul crawls upon the earth, and corrupts all he embraces. Nations rise, and fall, and rot.

    you ever crave imperial gothic vibes so bad you start chewing drywall

    why you should read this:
    - beautiful prose, interesting and rich dialogue that tells a story on itself, with fleshed out main AND side-characters to which things are Actually Happening, and extensive world-building that adds onto what the game gives us
    - cool animal symbolism that is both terrifying and kinda hot ngl
    - beautifully written and (tragically) intimate

    Emet-Selch lives rent free in WOL and takes care of them and makes sure they don't starve themselves to death or get hypothermia. 10/10 he's a good tenant.

    Summary

    So many dreams, left for dead in the water
    Drowned and gone; just smile and let them go

     

    In the end, you had already made your choice, in the wilds of Gyr Abania.

    You cannot sacrifice those you can yet save for those you have lost.

    An intriguing what-if scenario and a fun way to incorporate an Emet!Lives AU. Also, I just like Ascian possessions, man. Mutual dependency, vampire-like aether gorging, yada yada... Tasty!! Also really appreciate the connection to the DRK questline. :)
