Day 16: Lightning - Alaric, king of the Visigoths!

[interact-with-my-illagers]

I don't know why, but even though I haven't even seen how Ivor acts or looks like, I already feel like I would want to throw a cast iron frying pan at his head.

LOL! Yeah, Ivor can have a temper, especially when those he cares about are threatened or hurt. But I assure you, he is loyal and would do anything for his people. The Deserters, however, are in a whole different manner altogether. They are the true definition of evil and sadistic. They find joy in torturing and hurting others, so feel free to throw the frying pan at them. Amaros, a member of King Alaric's council, is another one you can throw a frying pan at. Amaros had let the power go to his head and attacked Alaric and his son Fallon. So yes, most of my Illagers are good-hearted except for a few.

your husband cregan stark after having a few celebratory drinks 🍻🍻🍻

• pulls you to sit in his lap to be close to him

• has one hand resting on the small of your back

• he tells off the other men when they get too drunk or rowdy!!! (and he doesn’t have to tell them twice) 😌

• asks you about your day while staring intently at your lips

• his cheeks flush pink and his hair clings softly to his face from the sweat and humidity in the room

• starts giving you bedroom eyes 🦋

• apologizes to you for the smell of ale on his breath using your petname <33

you know it is time to grab his hand and head off to bed when he starts whispering in your ear about how badly he wants to fuck you since he got back from his trip 🤭

Do mate marks have to be announced in advanced when it comes to certain families (Scarlett's and Cy's) or is it strictly something between them and MC?

I thought I'd ask because given Cy's royal status it would maybe have to come up so that the wedding can then be planned shortly after.

And Scarlett's family is the oldest Vampire family in existence, so I don't know if that would be something that would make her have to bring it up before it happens, even though she's not first-born.

Although something tells me A) She'd do it AFTER she received MC's mate mark and B) If anyone asked if it happened yet she'd tell them to (politely of course) to bugger off.

I hope you don't mind these mate mark questions. I did have a look through the already answered ones, but this seems so specific in nature I don't think it's been brought up before.

There’s official announcements to the wider supernatural community, yes. Like a royal engagement announcement pretty much. Though — when it comes to actual family members — it typically depends on the family in general; with House Aurelia, for instance, Cy wouldn’t really need to announce it as the MC simply being allowed to be around them and in deep relationship with them sort of showcases that the members of the royal family would accept the bond regardless. Alaric would probably want Scarlett to tell him just so he can have “the talk” with the MC again… As Alaric would have definitely already had a version of said talk with you. So it wouldn’t be for prosperity’s sake… Alaric and Scarlett just share the same sense of humor even though they’d both scoff at the comparison.

When it comes to weddings and things those can typically be planned at a slower pace, but the families would typically have been told — or at least aware — at that point to begin planning.

And you’re exactly correct on Scarlett; she’d walk in to a scheduled dinner with her father and stare him dead in the eye as she sat down. Not even trying to hide it. Now if it hadn’t happened yet and people kept asking? She’d definitely tell people to stop trying to rush something that didn’t need to be rushed; especially if it was making you uncomfortable.

I don’t mind the mating mark questions in the slightest! I’m well aware that a lot of questions can be raised due to said piece of world-building for Midnight Sun. And I’m always happy to try my best to answer any questions you all have regardless! ❤️

ALARIC STARK & ALYSANNE TARGARYEN (FACE CLAIM)—

"They are a non-canon couple, but they met and interacted when the queen visited Winterfell (58 AC) without the king (jaehaerys i)".

"The longer Queen Alysanne Targaryen stays at Winterfell, the warmer Lord Alaric Stark's attitude towards her becomes".

''However, he warmed to the queen, and eventually took her hunting in the wolfswood for elk and wild boar, and showed her the bones of a giant. He also allowed her to rummage as she pleased through him".

🪻Note: I read a lot of fan-fiction about them and it really got me hooked and also made them my favorite-ship. Their visual claims I chose is Queen Elizabeth Woodville (the White Queen) played by Rebecca Ferguson and a character from a Turkish historical series.

As suggested by this thread here, I've decided to make that one chart for most the revealed important characters in DoC so far (not counting Gabriel yet cause you guys don't know much about him yet)

Do you think king queen fmo would consider trying for another baby for the "heir and a spare" thing?

Honestly I love this idea simply bc of drama that would ensue afterwards 💀💀, and for several reasons:

- Aemond tipping his hand to basically saying alaric will be his heir

- what this mean for reader and his relationship since there will have to be an added layer of intimacy that they haven’t shared since probably trying for alaric.

- what this means for daella in all of this. Like she was never officially named and she does understand the way the realm works. But she’d probably feel some type of way bc she could do it. She could be a great queen

- also what kind of new found pressure reader would now be under when it comes to conceiving children. Like yeah regardless of status, there were/are strict “duties” a woman had to tend to. Child bearing being one. But now the idea that she needs to have a boy and if not…. They are trying all over again. I think as someone who had a mom who struggled with fertility issues, that would fuck with her. Also someone who still grew up being told that was her job. And if she doesn’t get that done, she has essentially failed. Ugh I can just imagine her and daella having a similar convo that nyra and aemma do. “Everyone is worried about the babe, who is worried about you.”

"Is that what they say, Darling?" Crewel's eyes narrowed, a single brow raised, "I don't think I've ever heard that phrase before, but I think I understand the meaning behind it." Some things needed to be broken and Crewel considered himself an expert when it came to that. The White King continued to speak, and Crewel hung on his every word, nodding along and humming as if in deep thought. "Anything edible or able to inhale that may calm a rage?" He didn't care to elaborate further, not when something else piqued his interest. "Darling? You'd let me hunt your own creation? Doesn't that defeat the point in making your own beast?"

Crewel smiled a vicious smile. "I will take you up on that offer, Darling," and he would enjoy it, taking advantage of everything Wonderland had to offer, including its beasts, of which he had heard of many. "Both?" Brows raised once more but his smile did not falter, "I wouldn't say it was noble, or much of a hunt, nor was it painless." He chuckled. "A statue is a worthy trophy to have. Impractical to carry with you, but still worthy."

"Well you know what they say, you can't make an omlette without cracking a few eggs. Or a lot more than that." Alaric liked to think of the world in the idea of a wheel his creations were a product of his destruction, careful and exact destruction. He liked to cut along the lines. "Your coat is beautiful. My experiments are less garment related though, I synthesize new drugs and teas for my people, things to capture our fancy and whims. I am also in the works of creating a beast myself. Something fearsome and wild. I would love to let you hunt it when I am done." he said with a little smile.

"Come hunt in my realm. Please indulge to your hearts content and bring back the bounty of meat, organs, and bones back to my castle. Enjoy the oddities of my lands." Alaric's silvery eyes glinted with delight at the revelation that the other had killed his own father. "How interesting. we both killed our father's. Though I am sure the way I did it was far less noble than a hunt. Though it was painless. I turned my father into a trophy of my own. A statue."

If MC doesn’t age because they’re already dead, and C doesn’t age due to the mate immortality lore, would C ever step down from the throne someday? Why are their parents planning to step down?- I don’t remember the lifespan of Phoenixes. That aside, I don’t really get the need to transfer power if they’re not aging or losing the physical ability to handle responsibilities.

Phoenixes are technically immortal already — not going into what the technically entails due to spoilers — so that has nothing to do with the MC or the mate bond lore.

There’s a reason the Midnight Sun elicits the reaction the way that it does — as the Midnight Sun is the event wherein a new ruler takes over the Eclipse Throne… Meaning that the Eclipse Throne decides when a reign begins and when it ends. I don’t want to get too heavy on the specifications of how that necessarily works (again for spoilers) but it ties in with later events that’ll be revealed over the course of the story.

Your last point is pretty much the exact reason Alaric hasn’t stepped down from his own throne and position… He’ll either do so when he’s dead or he gets bored of being king.

Alaric didnt ever grow up with much... in fact he lived on the streets since he was a child and would stay in little abadoned buildings he saw. He tried to never steal instead would try and work only most places were afraid to hire him, not with the rumours of who his parents had been or at least his mother. "into dark magic so she was, a sorcerer" said another. "Can you believe her husband almost worked in the castle kitchen...? I heard their spawn even used to play wiht the prince.. disgraceful." They would say. There was one small llittle place barely staying open itsself that would give him anything left over. In return he would help with repairs. Alarics father wasnt father of the year up and leaving when he didnt want to sahre his wifes attention but he did teach him some things. His little shed had a whole in the roof but he didnt mind, Alaric loved watching the stars and when he had more energy painting them.

A loud eruption in the streets and suddenly a banging at his door sent him suddenly falling out of bed and rushing towards the opposite wall just to get a glance out of the window. Heart pounding he clutched his chest and stiffened before starting to barricade the door with anything he could find, iced objects suddenly flew across the room his hands quivering. "BY ORDER OF THE KING OPEN UP IMMEIDIATLEY. the king?? What did the king want with..

"BY ORDER OF-" enough of this" Anorther said and kicked the door down. Alaric fell back against the wall. "Grab him.. hes to be taken straight to the king.. this is the one... he owes the kingdom a great deal.. thinking they could rob the kingdom.. marry off to nobles.. pathtic. He'll do well as a servant." Alaric didnt understand a word of what they meant and yelped as he was grabbed. "Restrain him.. we dont want him possibly trying to escape or hurt our prince."

The queen knocked gently on Ferre's door. " I do hope you are up by now.. its nearly 9." She chided. "Its a beautiful day come down darling." @combeferre-the-mothman
