☁️ ☁️ + how do you feel about your brother?

"Of isoveljeni? Of Usva? I love him. I mean, things between us grew complicated but still I adore him. It wasn't his fault. Usva was my best friend. He was my first and only friend for the longest time. I wasn't allowed to leave the palace without permission and Revon had to accompany me at all times. I was tutored privately, so I didn't have much in the way of making friends .

So Usva was the obvious choice for companionship. He's my older brother. I idolized him. I still do in a way. I wanted to do everything he did and I wanted him to be proud of me. Usva was my harshest critic. He was one of the only people in my life who didn't put me on a pedestal for being born of this color. He couldn't have cared less what color my Mist was. To him I was simply pikkuveli, his Snowflake.

I was never anything less or more than that. He used to tell me that I was "pikkuveljeni first and holy vessel second." He was the only one I had to talk to that was anywhere near my own age. Otherwise it was either Revon or Opettaja Valo. Mother occasionally but never Father. I was surrounded by adults my entire life, so naturally I acted like them. Usva was the only example I had to being a child and he was an example.

We did everything together and when it came to causing trouble I was always his second. Usva was extremely mischievous and I would do just about whatever he asked of me. I was near always the one left on watch when he needed someone to have his back because my hearing is at least twice as good as his was and he knew it. So he used that natural advantage whenever he could.

Usva was... my stability. I could talk to him about anything and he'd never judge me. He was always there when I had nightmares and he would set and listen when I was scared or lonely. Right before the ritual of the Holy Blade, he was the only one who really listened to me. I don't know if I would have been able to get through it if it hadn't been for Usva. He talked me through the whole thing.

'Just like flying' he said and I have held those words in my heart ever since. Anytime I need to face something difficult that is what I remind myself 'Just like flying'. I can overcome anything if I just remember the way Usva has always stood at my side. He's always always been there for me. He's the strongest swordsman I know and never have I ever seen someone as skilled with a blade in my life.

One day... I'll catch up to him. One day, he'll be proud of me."
