#ergi: 😭

[imbouttasue]

the "Tweeter Diary" side story but dolshi is ergi. Ta-da !! new erkenna AU. Huge novel spoilers.

Part 1

Part 2

Summary: Angel gave ergi an enchanted bracelet that can turn a person into someone they wish to be. Ergi - with his self-insecurities and feelings for Mckenna - the bracelet turned him to a woman. He'll only come back to his true form once he took the bracelet off.

Angel stole the bracelet from the Eastern Empire dean.

The bracelet is rose-gold in color, and it looks like three handcuffs glued together.

Of course, the dean is beyond pissed at getting his bracelet stolen, and demands other mages to capture the thief. Other empires and kingdoms are searching for the bracelet as well because there's a huge cash price.

Angel gave the bracelet to Ergi as a "gift." Ergi accepts it reluctantly only because he wants the scoundrel out of his sight.

Surprise - ergi's father ordered angel to get rid of him in exchange of a huge sum of money. Angel decides to give the bracelet to the duke, because if his appearance is changed, no one will recognize him. Worse case scenario, the dean will eliminate him for "stealing" his bracelet. angel's hands won't get dirty, and the guy will be dead. It's a win-win situation.

Ergi's father wants him dead because he hates him... that's it

"Patience, grand duke. Your duplicitous son will be the one to decide his fate."

After repeatedly getting manipulated by his father about his own self as a whole (wishing that he had a daughter instead, etc.), and also hearing about mckenna looking for a lady to marry from heinrey as a tipping point, he got tempted to wear the bracelet.

He wore it, and turned to a woman.

His pronouns will be your/mom

He went outside of the palace, knowing that with his new appearance, he's not the duke anymore.

Ergi touches the somehow long strands of his hair, frowning. He's wearing a coat to hide himself. He's currently on the pathway in his dukedom. It'll took a while before he'll make it to the entrance. And it's morning! Just perfect for him to be seen and caught by the guards.

Who would have thought that Angel is being serious, anyway?

He tried taking the bracelet off, but it bear no good. It's persistently intact on his wrist. He keeps on walking out the pathway, and on his dismay, a guard blocked him in his way.

"Halt. Who are you?" Great.

"I'm a maid." He replied. Wow, my voice sounds nice, actually.

"I've never seen you before." Another sentinel enters. They held his chin, and he turned away with a subtle snarl. "She has a pretty face, don't you think?"

"As pretty as the grand duke's son, mayhaps."

A chill runs down Ergi's spine as both guards bursts into laughter. "My, what humor you have! If only he has a more petite figure to match his face, I would ravish him every night."

"You are lusting over him? Foul!"

"Quit it! Aren't you the same?!" The scandalous guard cages Ergi with their arms, and he winced. He feels so small, like a prey. He doesn't like it.

"What do you say, we have some fun with this woman? She doesn't look like she could lift a finger."

Son of a - is this how the society treats a lady?

"You're disgusting." Ergi says with gritted teeth. "Let go of me."

They laughed at his display, and he feels himself getting suffocated. Just as his pride begins to crumble, he sees a glimmer of blue hair. A glimmer of hope.

He launches forward, attempting to get away from the guards. "McKenna!" He yells, and the knight turned to his direction. Ergi almost sighs in relief at seeing him, desperately wanted to get out of the situation he didn't expect to be put in - not until the confused knight turned back his heel. He walked away.

Like he doesn't know him.

... he doesn't recognize me.

The torturous tittering among the duchy's guards is so close to sending ergi to a killing spree. He's not only annoyed, his pride is wounded. The insufferable feelings he had for the knight made it worse.

The guards pinned him to the wall roughly. The impact took the air out of him. He closed his eyes to minimize the pain.

It feels like thorns being tied on his neck.

They touched his ears as if he's an object.

He can't breathe.

You're supposed to be a knight, birdbrain. I'm a damsel in distress. Why aren't you helping me?

Do you really never cared for me?

Suddenly, he heard a loud crack! and the air around him felt lighter. He opened his eyes little by little, and he saw the guards passed out on the ground. Breathless, he looked up; and saw the pair of black eyes he adored so much.

"You must be new in this household, miss," McKenna utters, but Ergi is so lost in the moment to care about anything he says. So this is how being saved feels like. "most working men here are - um, well, perverted. I hope you talk to the head maid soon about the safe routes you can take to avoid them."

Ergi choked out a cry.

McKenna flinched, startled. This ... woman just called him minutes ago - he doesn't even know her! - and is confusing him even more. Why is she crying?

By then, he noticed her eyes. It's pretty. A cute shade of green. Almost as deep-colored as an endless sea. It feels familiar.

"M-miss?"

"Birdbrain!" Ergi jumps at him, forgetting proper decorum - enveloping him in a hug. His tears fall. Overwhelmed by all the things his father said to him, the helplessness of knowing that he will lose this man so soon when he never even got the chance to hold him like this.

McKenna makes the noise of a dying bird. Now, their emotions in this moment are clashing. Ergi is emotional. In the eyes of the birdbrain however, what the maiden is doing doesn't make a single sense.

"It's me, birdbrain, please ... " her cries are enough to make any men waver, including him. But still!

He awkwardly pushes her away.

"I-I'm really sorry, you must have confused me for your lover or, haha, something."

He saw her tearful eyes when he looks down on her. No in snowballs name of hell. He would not succumb to some crocodile tears!

"It's me, Ergi. I could explain all of this ... please listen to me." He heard her say once more. His jaw is on the floor, almost literally.

[blues824]

The Remarried Empress where GN!Reader is Kusuo Saiki; they're a psychic (only Navier and Heinrey know) who obviously knows the kinda shit Rashta is doing and warns their Empress accordingly so she can be prepared.

They take no shit from anyone; they're wary of Heinrey (who found out when they scared the crap out of him by announcing (telepathically) that they know he isn't a normal bird) at first but when they notice how happy their Empress is, they begrudgingly stop keep such a close eye on him, they don't care for Ergi much at all, they despise Sovieshu and Rashta, and they make sure Navier can de-stress healthily.

Most of my Remarried Empress requests are Sovieshu and Rashta slander 😭

Sovieshu

Like most of the other Remarried Empress fics that I write, Sovieshu despises you. He is unsettled by your emotionless face, and you are often very sarcastic. Can’t be breaking the 4th wall, bro. It’s weird, according to the Emperor.

Plus, you were getting painfully close to Her Imperial Majesty, and His Imperial Majesty did not like it at all. She seemed to know something about you that kind of caused that closeness, but no matter how many times he threatened asked, she would not give anything up.

Eventually, once the whole thing with the divorce is going on, you demonstrate the true power you have and you let Her Majesty know what Sovieshu is planning on doing beforehand. You also used your telekinesis to force the guards back from the gate and push said gate open.

That being said, Sovieshu thought you were a real piece of shit for doing that (not those words, as it would have been very improper). As he watched his ex-wife leave the Empire, he made the servants go get him two bottles of alcohol, one whiskey and one wine, as he was planning to drink his sorrows away.

Rashta

She could tell that you were causing Sovieshu a bunch of despair, and she didn’t like it at all. The man warned her to stay away from you, but she couldn’t help herself. Unfortunately, as we all know, she can’t seem to handle sarcasm. She’s a bit sensitive. So, you just chose not to speak at all to her.

It was making her frustrated because she wished to know why you were so prone to only keeping close to Navier. However, every time she opened her mouth to speak to her, you were already gone and she was left alone in the corridor.

But, there was one time where she was planning the whole divorce thing with Ergi, and you ‘overheard’. You even let her know telepathically as you teleported to Her Imperial Majesty to go tell her what the young mistress was planning to do. It didn’t matter, since Navier already figured it out.

Honestly, both women’s goals worked out. With Her Formerly Imperial Majesty remarried to Heinrey, Rashta didn’t have a need to give up the throne. However, you still posed a threat because you could report her to the authorities and she could be tried and executed for the crimes she has committed thus far.

Navier

She is one of the only people who know about your powers, and she is glad that you told her. She was also one of the only people in the castle that you could tolerate, considering herself and every single one of her thoughts were dedicated to the good of the whole Empire.

Whenever you can tell that she is overwhelmed by the whole Sovieshu-Rashta thing, you use your powers to kind of help relieve her mind a bit. By that, I mean you read her mind to see what she likes and doesn’t like and you have some of the servants prepare a small meal that you both could enjoy within her garden.

When the mistress of the Emperor was planning something with Ergi. You used your telepathy to gather intel (much like a spy), and you reported back to the Empress. However, she already knew that once Rashta became Empress, she would never want to give up the throne.

Then there was the escape sequence, which you were a big help in. Your powers allowed you to turn the soldiers who were guarding the gates into stone. You promise that you will make it to the Western Kingdom the minute you were sure that she wasn’t being followed.

Heinrey

He is the second person who knows of your powers, mainly because you told him that you knew he was Heinrey when he was in Queen form. You were able to keep his secret, but you did keep a close eye on him (a little pun). 

As time went on, your protective tendency over Navier drew itself back. You could see that Heinrey really made Her Imperial Majesty happier, but you made sure to warn the bird-man that if he were to cause the Empress any emotional distress, you would gladly turn him into a statue that would reside in the garden.

During the divorce arc, he sat down and asked you what he should do to help. You were the one with the idea to have him in the courtroom so that he could immediately request a marriage to Navier, and you would handle any other difficulties with your psychic abilities.

Honestly, you were scary whenever you got really serious and fierce, and the To-Be-King really took note of you taking off your green glasses and turning the guards to stone. It was a sight to behold: you in the midst of a bunch of armed statues.

They really do and they will actually enjoy being a lifeguard 😎 “So, you’re saying I get to spend the day in the beach, being sexy while also rescuing people? Hell yeah!”

Oh my God, just got hit with the realization that Skylar’s got some of that Ken-ergy 😭

[wapdyn]

Umm… what is this resemblance between Evalie and the FL of Alphatart’s new novel that’s coming out on April 4th 😱

More pics

I was like ‘does Ergi have blue eyes?’ because I remembered the weird hinted love triangle between him Evalie, and Lebetti, in the side stories, but he has green eyes, not blue 😵‍💫

But at first when I read ‘blue eyes’ I thought of these two who are in love with Aini… but Aini doesn’t look like the FL and their love isn’t like that lol, It’s more pure love 😭😭

Who else has blue eyes in Alphatart’s works? The chairman (like the main villain in MOTH), but he doesn’t have any illustrations yet… and there’s also Evalie’s twin, Dartha

But tbh, the webtoon version of Evalie looks more like the FL in that cover

This could all just be a coincidence, so pls don’t take this seriously 🤣 I just randomly thought of this at 3 am while distracting myself from studying (it worked)

[remarriedempressempire]

An erkenna au went to me like a word from a literate 17th monarch

Since the story implied that ergi chose to live with his mother, that means he abandoned his royal status. let's say he's now a commoner or *gasp* fugitive? Idk what consequences a royal can receive after running away. His mother is healed and they live together in either in a far continent or village. no one knows where they went because they concealed their identities. Even their appearances look different (black hair, black eyes like anastasius from wmmap lol). Have ergi becoming a either a butler or a teacher. Teacher sounds great because homeboy will be manipulating children

Few years later where the 2nd generation is already around seven year olds, mckenna & the western royal family happened to drop by in that same country ergi ran off to. make them bump to each other, make eye contact, and mckenna already knows it's him. His heart thumped again, re-founding his soulmate.

"It's you."

Ergi as anastasius made me cackle 😭him being the mentor to a child is giving me so many ideas in how he's gonna mentally screw over that child and make them either the next dictator or a revolutionary ruler. mckenna imeediately noticing ergi is so 😭😭♥️♥️they are interwined in life and death your honor. Also I'm sorry to bring mcdolshi to this but imagine ergi's gaze slowly falling to yongyong and dolshi's arm on mcKenna's and a small "oh" escapes his lips before covering it with his classic shit faced grin.

[autumnfuzz]

Just watched corpse bride. I think Rashta would be perfect as Emily (corpse bride). Sovieshu as Victor (Well his last name already is Vict ) and Navier as Victoria. Ergi would be Burkis (would match his character as a backstabber and what he did to Rashta).

I love you but you're not mine- this line always makes me feel angsty 😭

[imbouttasue]

I like the way that Rashta adds honorifics/titles to other characters or calls them immoraly but when it comes to Heinrey, she just calls him by his first name lmao.

[ergivier]

I can't read KR so this is just my thoughts on the image, not the text:

I understand rashta stans so much better now... THIS IS RASHTA IN SOVIESHU'S THOUGHTS. she's wearing a commoners outfit. A COMMONERS OUTFIT! he never imagines her in clothing more fitting for an Empress because he was more infatuated with her before she became Empress, when she was had an innocent persona. he is the main cause of her fall into corruption. I hate that bitch so much 😁

also, yes, I agree that ergi was also another big part of rashta's corruption as well. although I have a navier pfp, and my name is literally ergivier, I have never disagreed with this. I just wish rashta had never been discovered by sovieshu, but by navier instead 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

[icedgarlic]

The fact that all of Ryan goslings recent interviews that are supposed to be The Gray Man promotion have been consumed by Ken😭 the ken-ergy is too powerful

[honestlyyoungtyphoon]

Motte/Gloryem being Rashta and Sovieshu's child and her guilt

Motte aka Gloryem being Sovieshu's child was confirmed in children arc. Long before the "Sovieshu's regression arc".

Many people posed as the lost princess to meet Sovieshu. One of them was Cici, Motte/Gloryem's close friend. But Sovieshu knew it wasn't her but was kind to Cici.

Sovieshu also knew Motte was Gloryem. But she refused to take the throne. She didn't want to take things. She wanted to earn them on her own talent (because of her lari realised how spoiled she was, cause she was just asking her parents to give her both Eastern empire and western kingdom. Said she wanted to conquer the rest on her own. Future tyrant right there. Even Navier realised, lari was basically telling her brother that, she'd cause war and take the kingdom from him. Like what?🤡).

Motte knew, eventually she'd have to reveal her identity to everyone later. So she wanted to be strong of her own first. And out of guilt too. Cause she blames herself for Sovieshu's decreased mental health and Rashta's death. (No baby it wasn't your fault 😭💔). Poor kid 😞. She wanted to be strong, so that she could help others.

She calls Sovieshu as her her father, not Alan. And Rashta as her mother. And blames herself for their current condition. (My heart broke reading that part 😭😭😭). She also feels sad for the grand duchess who spent her life looking for Gloryem.

The immense burden she carries on her own. I'm pretty sure if Sovieshu knew that Motte blames herself for his mental condition, he'd die from heartbreak. Cause no way in hell, he'd blame Gloryem but himself for his current situation. He didn't even blame Rashta for his misery, rather he blamed himself.

Motto looks like Rashta but she, but by nature she is all Sovieshu. Her mannerisms matches with him.

Now I understand why "Sovieshu's regression arc" took place just before the divorce. Alphatart made sure Gloryem grew up with her parents this time.

I don't think she'd hate Navier as a step mom, as Navier feared. I think they'd have an amicable relationship if not close. Rashta might realise later that, Navier is not her enemy. Being away from Lotteshu's blackmail and Ergi's manipulation would calm her down too.

When Sovieshu's regression arc came out, I only focused on Navier and Sovieshu's happy ending but didn't realise how it changed Gloryem's life too! 🥹 And Rashta is finally alive, not dead in a cell. 🤗

Yes I would have preferred if Sovieshu travelled back farther, long before he found Rashta. But I guess the author didn't want to erase Gloryem from existence.

Petty me wants point out that, Alphatart had no problem in erasing the twins from new timeline but didn't erase Gloryem. 😌 She exists in both timeline, thriving and enjoying her life.

She's Sovieshu's kid in both timeline. 🫂

Just a wishful thinking but I hope in future Alphatart writes a sidestory where, Motte and Sovieshu finally have a good relationship with each other. And comes in terms with her mother's past. She doesn't deserve guilt that's burdening her.

[nairazz]

Hi, can you give the link to that pic of Sovieshu and Ergi where it's very explicit? I think it's related to your fic. I want to see that pic again 😭. Hope you don't mind.

Sorry, I have no intention of publishing its full version right now. If it's relevant to the future plot, I'll post it on my fic later. 👉👈
