Mayncient Day 25: Ruin

Hades, Please know that I do this because I love and care about you. If you change your mind you know where you can find us. I’m sorry. Anthea “Hades….and Anthea….,” I choke out, flipping the page over with a false hope that there would be more to the story, “What happened between you two?”

Deimos and Phobos

“To encounter oneself is to encounter the other: and this is love. If I know that my soul trembles, I know that yours does too: and if I can respect this, both of us can live.”

— James Baldwin, The Devil Finds Work: Essays

Screaming over how well @leviiackrman brought my boys to life! Look at these two! Look at how dynamic they are! Look at that subtle color difference. Look at the lighting! Look at them embodying a saying their future selves have, "I've got your front so long as you got my back"! Just! ahhh!!! Jess this is absolutely lovely and I am in love and this was such a fun piece to receive! Just look at them! If you excuse me I'm gonna go and cry in a corner about them.

People always expect Deimos and Phobos to be the closest of the Love/War siblings but it's actually Phobos and Eros aka the two bastards who love ruining Uncle Apollo's life

[hythlodaeus-mynewoldfriend]

Okay I really should make a sort of look book for him but have Demos below the cut and then the outfits for Deimos and Phobos the Azem(s).

In order we got arr, the lvl 83 quests, general chill/arr, end of ShB thru most of EW, 6.4 (ish) basically EW patches into DT, end of HW thru most of SB, and then late SB into ShB.

Calling all FFXIV players! If you have a wol that's either a dude or uses the male model (this is relevant) I wanna see your fashion! Show me your fav glams! Race is irrelevant :]

Oops second ask related to your au. What do fulgrim and ferrus get up too in their down time? Hehehe.

Im imagining konrad falling from a hole in the ceiling mouth stuffed full of gigantic rats landing right in the middle some celebratory luncheon that malcador has tried to organise.

never apologize for oc/personal au asks this is like me catnip.

going to do these backwards:

this sounds completely plausible (konrad does pop up in places he is absolutely not supposed to be frequently and with great enthusiasm)

except malc isn’t around (yet). however, there is another hooded perpetual with weirdly strong psychic powers wandering the palace. this isn’t great for emp’s mental state but who said any of this was great for emp’s mental state.

now that first question. the short answer is ferrus and fulgrim at least start the au by being firmly On Vacation

ferrus and fulgrim, once they’ve spent some time working things out between themselves generally just kinda. hang around? they’re slowly working on undoing the damage they did to their respective legions, kind of leading the charge for emotional rehab here like ‘ok there’s got to be a way to learn these lessons without Dying Horribly. right.’ they are preoccupied with this for much of the plot, in part because unlike most of the other Primarchs, Fulgrim in particular (and Ferrus by virtue of sticking close by to him) is Not Allowed to interact with Juno. At All.* (*until she’s older). In fact he’s top of The List (which is a thing that does exist). (this could be the subject of a whole nother post however, so i digress)

Fulgrim is actually quite upset by this; he’s put some degree of effort into repairing his relationship with Ferrus, and wishes gman would afford him the same opportunity. gman said i don’t owe u shit, which he’s right about, and though fulgrim understands this that doesn’t mean he’s happy about it. especially when it means he’s effectively out of the running for ‘baby niece’s favoritestest coolest most spoil you rotten uncle’ like forever (don’t feel too bad fulgrim. you’ll never guess who juno’s favorite is. none of you ever stood a chance.)

luckily fulgrim has other children to occupy his time.

N’kari was really important to fulgrim post-fall, as a touchstone and companion. The two were still very close even though they had not seen each other for some time at the start of this au, so when N’kari has an unsanctioned hybrid clutch with a khornate daemon and is panicking about it he goes straight to his bestie who uses his imperial-green-card-by-marriage to shelter him from the two angered deities.

So aside from their legions, Fulgrim and Ferrus’ downtime is largely occupied with assisting N’kari and Skarbrand raise their menace twin girls: Deimos and Phobos! They are somewhere between 7-10 years younger than Juno, and idolize her greatly, though she mostly knows them as these annoying kids who follow her around while she’s exploring the warp in her early twenties. Anyway that’s where all of Fulgrim’s ‘childless lesbian double income auntie at christmas’ energy goes; he spoils those brats rotten.

Has your OC ever taken on a secret identity or used a disguise to achieve their aims?

Beyond some of the msq moments where it calls for you to pretend to be someone else this is actually a big part of Sib's story, and something that Phobos did to an extent. Below the cut for potential spoilers and length.

I'll start with Phobos as its shorter, but they went back to Amaurot in the time just before the sundering hoping to do a little damage control for Deimos and at least let Emet and Anthea know he was okay and alive still. When getting there though Phobos finds out about the future and Emet's end, and that hurt to know that their brother essentially lets his grief be the end of him. However, because no one knew Phobos was even a thing Hydaelyn told them that they're the unknown factor so maybe they do something to change the future, maybe they don't. Hearing this Phobos continues on with the intention of pretending to be Deimos if it became to late because maybe Emet didn't see his brother and that's what led him down this path of grief. Easy to do since they look like Deimos save for their personal style and eyes. When the sundering happens and Phobos ends up being the one to push the unsundered into the rift they speak to Emet as if they are Deimos and as far as Emet knew that was his brother who's last act was to save him and express how he has faith in Emet to lead the people onward to a better tomorrow. It is a very short moment but one that feels needs to be said, as Phobos would much rather let themselves be forgotten or never known if it means helping more people.

Sib's whole start of story is her running away from home to a place where no one knows who she is, and she intends to keep it that way as much as she can. So in an effort to keep her high born status under further secrecy she changed how she dressed, her hair color, and even her accent, along with opting to never disclose her last name. She wants to be known for who she is behind the title and she does a damn good job of it with only a few people knowing for sure who she is (Minfilia, Thancred, Urianger, Y'shtola, Lyse, Count Edmont, and Aymeric, Estinien and Alphie after HW), until you get to EW and she kind of has to let it be known. Even books of the future that G'raha read never made mention of her Lady status.

Its imperative to her to have some kind of outside identity as she doesn't know who she is outside of being a Lady and she knows there has to be someone there she just can't find her and she definitely won't find her if everyone treats her a certain way because of her status or she gets ratted out to her parents because her mom was offering up a nice reward for bringing Sib home. The goal was attained, she finds who she is and is all the better for it.

How people find out though at different times of the story are as follows:

The og Scions (Minfilia, Thancred, Y'shtola, Urianger, Lyse, Tataru, and Papalymo) know because her mother sent a letter asking for their help in locating her as a hail mary i am determined to find my daughter one way or another kind of deal. While it's not made a priority, they keep a general eye out, with Thancred finding her and letting Minfilia know. By that time though Hydaelyn was letting it be known to Minfilia that Sib needed to stay with them and not go back home, so she wasn't sent away and didn't make it a deal to acknowledge it.

Alphie, Count Edmont, Aymeric, Haurchefaunt, and Estinien find out because Count Edmont thought her face familiar looking, which it was because there were posters making their way among some high society with Sib's face (yes her mother went overboard) and really put time into confirming Sib's identity when he saw her and Haurchefaunt get close because it would ensure a higher status for his son that couldn't ever really be more than a bastard. Basically knowing that her parents would grant him that title of Lord more officially and so he sent a letter inquiring to her mother on if there were any engagements or anything Sib ran away from and to make arrangements to wed the two. It did lead to conversations with Aymeric about it, and it was during a dinner that it was brought up around Alphie and he found out that way. Alphie though didn't want to believe it because she certainly didn't act like her title and that's his friend, she surely would tell him. After more thought he understood, and frankly kicked himself a little for not figuring it out sooner since there were obvious signs the entire time. Estinien found out because once finding out that Sib had befriended Aymeric her mother sent the man....so many letters asking him to take her daughter's hand in marriage. Estinien heard the grumbling from Aymeric and took some time out from his travels to go to Thavnair and attempt to strong arm Sib's mother into stopping her letter writing (it didn't last long).

By EW Krile finds out a bit first because Sib didn't want to make waves right away in Sharlayan so she tried to switch out paperwork so it had the correct information on who she was to save the hassle of "Why did you lie on your identification?" that probably would have ensued. By the time you get to Thavnair and its after the Tower of Zot when you get the boxes of talismans that everyone else that wasn't in on it finds out, because her mother was not letting her daughter leave Thavnair without seeing her parents and so she held a box hostage to make her come to dinner. Gig was up she had to tell them all that yes she's a Lady and she had been the whole time, she just never thought they'd ever end up in Thavnair so didn't say anything. Ali still has a hard time believing it until getting to her house and its kind of hard not to believe it at that point. Raha was thoroughly confused as to how that information was never recorded anywhere or that no one else put the two together. Demos also feels a little bamboozled cause he should have known and its like the one thing he kept missing in his observations with her. Everyone thought that man was in on it from the start but he wasn't and kept accidently turning a blind eye to it all.

The only other person to know who Sib is and her identity from the start was Godbert Manderville, and that is simply because he and his wife had attended some of her family's parties as she was growing up. So he knew what she looked like even with the dyed hair, but he understood why she was hiding. His son would have known if her hair hadn't been a different color other than its natural purple.

[dragonskulls]

in the Vast Moor, the ruling system is fairly similar to other quivers; there's a leader –the Accipiter– and their second in command –the Noctua– but with the exception of having a third rank, the Corvus:

the Corvus has a practical role that borders on the religious. Wyvern training is incredibly important for moor runners, as such, it's obvious that someone who oversees that aspect would have a respected position of power. The Corvus is an influential advisor, playing a big role in the selection of future leaders, and is the one tasked to supervise all wyvern rearing in the quiver, being extremely knowledgeable on these creatures. Burials were another task traditionally assigned to them, but it wasn't until recently that they were allowed to do that again.

The reason for this previously mentioned prohibition is attributed to one dragon only: Shrikeshred

(cw for cannibalism mention lol) Shrikeshred is a controversial figure. Regarded as the Vast Moor's most talented Corvus in history –something clearly seen in her masterpiece book "Way of the shrike" which showcases her incredible wyvern handling abilities and techniques, some of which are still used today– that unfortunately took a turn for the worst. A famous cannibal, not much is known about what made her go off the deep end, though it is believed tensions with the Accipiter in her era and the lean times of winter season may have had something to do with it. After disappearing into thin air one day, her shadow is still cast over the foggy moors. How could anyone forget what she had done? There wasn't a Corvus for a long time, which proved detrimental to wyvern management in the quiver's territory. Some say she's still out there, waiting for the right moment to come back. The wyverns pictured here were Shrikeshred's favorites, all of them species considered untameable, especially the Death spitter, a dreaded wyvern that can spit boiling acid. So far she has been the first and only dragon to be able to train these species.

been wanting to post this for a while but i had to finish all the refs first 😭 if you're wondering why the style changes it's bc they were done months apart aheem. ANYHOW! im excited to do more pieces and comics revealing what actually happened with Shrikeshred, as well as other characters involved with that whole mess. Also here's some tiny bits of more info on her toyhouse

+ some silly posts
