the caves ✦ act three - the magician

you have loved the caves all your life. have grown up in their shadow and searched for them, tried to piece together the truth of what they contain. and they have loved you, too, a love so vast it strains the sky. and of course they’re a god. of course. who else could hold you like this, cupping your body in the whole of itself, a butterfly lit on the hand of a gigantic being and it choosing not to squish.

what is love, but mercy? what is love, but a ruination?

#in the way that the last one was a maristel card this one is anselm--the present magician card reversed for him. a switching of their order #aka the one in which maristel goes back down down down to the caves (leaving behind reed #which is really just karma) and finds her errant reflection (lost so many years ago) and thehy walk hand in hand to the heart of the caves #which is the heart of gris and the god that it is and which is blue and which is dying #and then she eats it #girl to god - the journey of maristel #love as consumption my thesis statement #also evie-butterfly-water girl comes back #an even more fun fact is that elias's future card is judgement and guess who that is! maristel. my beloved.#rising out of the caves to bring a reckoning to the whole city and two people in particular #also this one-shot took me 12 hours beginning to end lol. i drank 8 bottles of water and almost lost my voice the next day #dnd #the caves #i reach for you in the night #my writing #*#mine
