Green Suit :: Heart Train (心田列车)

Accompanied by steaming white steam and whistling whistles,

The train entered a remote town for the first time,

The girl who was born in that year,

From then on, I became inseparable from the train.

Black Suit :: Dark Dream Melting Light (黯梦熔光)

She crowned herself with the night, Covering up the inner pain and desperate struggle,

Her head is always held high, Never shed a weak tear.

Story - transcripts from Designer's Reflection

Chapter 1 - Beneath the Ice

Chapter 2 - Spirit in the Lake

Chapter 3 - Forgotten Sagas

Chapter 4 - Black Tide Rising

Story - summarized

Mercury and his group finally found the Altar of Arionus, located at the bottom of Lake Bovaly. With the assistance of the Water Elf King's gem, he followed the path into the lake and down a dark passage.

And there, still preserved after all this time, was the stone altar. A misty wraith guarded it, emitting shrieks and screams. But Mercury was not deterred. Instead, he approached the spirit and declared himself a friend of the Water Elves.

The dark mist revealed itself to be Flo, one of the earliest and most devout followers of Arionus. He was there to witness the scorn of the other Elf Gods, as well as how Hephaes led to his great god's demise. Indignant and vindictive, Flo would do anything to restore the great God of Water.

Mercury announced that he had a plan to awaken the long-lost god, but he needed help revitalizing the New Moon gem. Flo readily agreed, and the last of his ghost faded into vapor as he transferred power into the gem.

Now, Mercury could uphold his end of the deal struck with the Water Elf King: he would awaken Arionus, break the oath binding the Water Elves to the deep sea, and assist in the downfall of Pigeon Kingdom and the Light Elves.

But he wouldn't do this for altruism. All he wanted was a glimpse of the power of the Abyss, and he needed Arionus back to do that.

Connections

-Mercury made a deal with the Water Elf King in Startide Dream. Now, he's fulfilling that deal by triggering the events of the Tides and Flames hell event.

-While Mercury craves the power of the Abyss, he still knew the risk of the Goddess of Desire's presence in Miraland and worked alongside the rest of the Shining Nikki cast during the Angel and Demon hell event. He provided resources to the other three factions.

-Flo has met Hephaes, but in Arionus' Reflection for Lost Tides, Flo didn't trust Hephaes one bit, and the moment the other Elf Gods ambushed Arionus, Flo was quick to pin the blame on Hephaes as a betrayal.

-This is not the first time Mercury wasn't the narrator of his own story: the first half of Startide Dream, the full story for Nightmist Aria, Daybreak Overture, Snow Song, and Reminiscence of Flower (to name a few) either feature another character narrating the story or none at all.

Fun Facts

-Even though we've seen Mercury make the deal with the Water Elf King before, this is the first time a mark or emblem has been mentioned.

-This Reflection is a prologue to the hell event, even to the Moon Memories.

-It's never clear if the New Moon gem is the same blue gem the Water Elf King gave to Mercury the day the young boy left the Pigeon palace. But it fits the description.

-While Mercury knows that gods exist, he doesn't worship any and sees them merely as pawns, like the mortals he meets.

The lineup of our beloved ASOIAF ttrpg campaign characters!⚔️

Our amazing GM @oneirotect has set us in 207 AC between the first and second Blackfyre Rebellions (around 90 years before Game of Thrones and 50 years after the death of the last known dragon). So far we've travelled across the Narrow Sea, partied in Braavos, escaped an assassination attempt by the Golden Company, made some difficult political decisions and started romantic entanglements with likely very dire consequences.

I guess this is a trend with me now. Flowers are out, pigeons are IN.

Meanwhile...

I am a firm believer that while Inej is away at sea, she sends Kaz weekly letters about her endeavors. sometimes she attaches a package, often including a new hat for him, but no matter what, he always keeps every single one. it doesn't matter if she wrote 15 pages or 1 paragraph. they all go in a box he keeps in his room, and he reads them over and over when he's missing her too much. just to see her handwriting again

"To his left, he heard Inej laugh behind her mask. He'd never heard her laugh like that, giddy and wild."

I love that right after Kaz gets Inej back, his ears are immediately clocking Inej's laugh, even noting that it is a new one. I am now hc-ing that Kaz catalogs all the different laughs of Inej's that he has heard, and no, he doesn't rank them because how can you rank perfection against perfection--

Mary: Jasmine Buds

Designer’s Reflection: Jasmine Buds

Obtained: Casual Drinks workshop

Rarity: SR

Attribute: Green/Fresh

Awakened Suit: Jasmine Aroma

Story - transcripts from Designer’s Reflection

Chapter 1 - Lucky Color

Chapter 2 - Unexpected Crisis

Chapter 3 - Jasmine Tea

Story - summarized

Mary is Queen Ophelia’s most trusted maid. She meticulously plans everything - from the suits the Queen wears down to the smallest accessory, to afternoon tea and the type of china. Today’s plans include preparing afternoon tea with the Duchess of Humphrey.

The noble family of Humphrey is young and influential, so this meeting will be important. May double-checks that the kitchen is stocked with the Duchess’ favorite tea: pine needle tea.

After gathering a jasmine bouquet from the garden, she goes up to the Queen’s bedroom, serving breakfast and chatting with her. The two enjoy their mornings like this: simple, friendly, warm. But they still have to get ready for the afternoon tea.

Finally, the Duchess of Humphrey arrives with her own maid, Sal. Sal is stunned by the beauty of the palace, and she can’t help but gush with Mary over everything.

And then she shares that the Duchess is getting sick of pine needle tea.

Mary hurries to the kitchen. She can’t ruin this important meeting! She remembers the jasmine bouquet she had picked for the Queen that morning. Jasmine tea is delicious, but a lot of nobles think it’s too mundane and lowly for their status. Could it still work?

She blends the jasmine and pine needle teas and finally serves the Queen and the Duchess. The Duchess is impressed with the new tea, and even asks for the recipe! The rest of the meeting goes smoothly.

Connections

-In Chapter 1, Mary mentions that the Original Crystal is back and Ophelia is happier and better. After the events of the Vol. 1 finale, Pigeon Kingdom finally got the Original Crystal back from Lilith and Nightbane.

Fun Facts

-Color divination is different from how Mary uses it. She just picks a lucky color of the day based on the flowers she sees, but in divination, each color has a meaning, like green represents nature and wealth, silver represents the moon and mysteries, and white represents purity and completion.
