True on both counts. Especially the latter. *She smirks and winks.*

The oak is a noble tree with a rich and storied history. This is acceptable.

Ah, they’re finally appreciating my genius, I see. Shame I can’t be there to enjoy it.

Tricking a knight to strip naked just to steal her sword is the latest Orlesian fashion craze.

I have. Conflicted feelings. On the one hand, demons are awful.

On the other… the possibilities.

*her face scrunches in disgusted disbelief* Whhhhho? Who would even? It’s terrible down there. *she makes a disgusted noise (fair use under the Thedosian copyright act)*

I tried to tell him ages ago, but we were already but he just said something about it being good enough for halla.

I mean, no one has ever said “oh I’m thinking about going to the Deep Roads on holiday, I hear the chasms full of darkspawn are lovely this time of year.” And no one should ever have to go there just because they heard Davrin singing.

yseult “thorne” ⚔️ @thorneofghislain.bsky.social · Jan 9

That sort of eerie, warble-y kind of sound, yeah. It was probably just Davrin then, singing to his feathery little terror. I think you’re safe.

Merde, have you heard the Calling already? Are you sure it wasn’t just Davrin singing?

What the hell is this? MORE elven gods? As if the other two were not enough… Can a bitch go two weeks without another deity popping up?

*sits upside down on a couch with her legs up over the back and her head hanging down from the cushions* Bonne année à touuuuuus. Mmm, merde… I am out of champagne……

yseult “thorne” ⚔️ @thorneofghislain.bsky.social · Dec 31

*chuckles* Oh, that’s alright, cher, I’ll figure something out. So tell me, what do the Crows have you doing today? Anything exciting?

*heaves a very dramatic sigh* Thank you, cher. This is the price wardens must pay, it seems. But your coffee will no doubt ease my troubles.
