Yayay thank you!!!

MATS

🪷 what gives this character inner peace?

This is a really good question because he spends so much of this in inner turmoil that “inner peace” feels kind of like an impossible state for Mats – but I think that for him, he’s very happy for a brief while on the steppe when he’s surrounded by people and working hard on rewarding manual labor. Pushing his body to its physical limits for something that brings a net good into the world (rather than destroying things or preparing for destroying things) would probably be the only thing to calm him down.

ANDER

🐌 do they carry their home with them or is it a place?

I think to some degree Ander carries his home with him, since he’s lived in many different places and not really been able to settle down in any of them. But if he has a home, I think it’s his mother – they have their fights but he loves her more than anyone and a place feels like home if she’s there.

ADAN

🌫️ how does this character feel about lying?

See the answer here for cultural background, but Adan is southern-er and generally a pretty well-behaved kid, so definitely doesn’t lie – the general southern way is avoidance, so asking direct questions indicates some level of interpersonal trust, and therefore Adan doesn’t often have to lie, but probably wouldn’t anyways.

HAMIDE

🦇 biggest material fear (ie heights, bugs etc)

Hamide is the little girl who ran away to live with wolves, so her fears are fairly few, but I could see her being deeply upset by blood. She doesn’t like to see other creatures suffer unnecessarily, and doesn’t really like violence in any form.

EVERYONE

🪓 would they make it to the end in a horror movie?

I think that all four have the ability to make it in a horror movie – they all have the savvy or fortitude to fight and come out on top. However, if they were together in a horror movie and only one could come out alive, Hamide would just disappear before the horror even got started and you wouldn't know what happened to her but you might assume she survived, Mats would definitely go first (cocky and overconfident), Ander would want to have final girl energy but would be the next to go, and Adan would be the actual final girl.
