#the antivan knows

[lizzybeeee]

When you spend 20 years attempting to bring down the child slavery, murdering, human trafficking exploitation ring that stole your childhood, murdered your friends, and killed countless innocents only to have them rebrand as 'Noble Freedom Fighters™' off-screen.

Genuinely obsessed with the fact that Viago wrote crow Rook a letter after the Antaam incident and literally just addressed them as idiot. I love their dynamic so much

Viago 📢 De 📢 Riva 📢

The idea that Treviso has special ziplines for the Crows to have an easier time going about stabbing people is hilarious to me because in my head Antivans have perfected hostile architecture in an attempt to keep Crows out. Roofs just crammed with statues and traps and dead ends and magical anti-grip paint (all tastefully appointed, of course)

You know, standard pigeon proofing. For bigger pigeons.

murat, on a training with his mentor, nearly killed him. but that's okay, the usual crow stuff, you know.

I'm okay, thanks for asking, I was just thinking about this codex entry

then got carried away about how a romanced Lucanis and Viago would meet to discuss just how many enemies Rook made the day they scrambled the Antaam's plans like an egg and the two assassin's would scheme together; how to keep Rook safe once the blight and newly-resurrected-elven-gods contract is complete (because we all know that if they're still cringing over Zevran, they're still foaming at the mouth over Rook) and they both get to the point that they're like "death, death is good" and start to plot the demise of everyone that simply looks at Rook wrong.

How Viago might start making a little more poison than he usually does. How Lucanis would be very interested in what Bellara knows about masking flavors; how he would absolutely bring Bellara to one of their meetings. And Bellara would only ask why they wanted to know once, before offering her services to them any time they needed.

Idk it's just kinda cute, makes me kick my feet a lil. Like they would murder for Rook <3

Just a regular Thursday night

Master Dellamorte The Lesser. Umber eyes and all.

Viago De Riva (!!!!!) by the way.

[cybershock24601]

Viago and Teia getting a letter one day (technically it was addressed to just Teia but they were On again so they're reading it together. there's another addressed to Viago waiting in his room which he has not slept in for three days and probably won't find go back to for at least a week more) that says:

We're eloping to Nevarra and Lucanis is abdicating. Giving you a heads up because you're cool. Enjoy the fallout!

Best Regards, Rook and Lucanis Ingellvar

What follows this unceremonious departure from Antiva is a level of chaos rivaling even Zevran's reign of terror as all the Talons scramble to grab the empty seat Lucanis left behind to live his best life as a househusband. House Dellamorte that has limped along clinging to power through blood and cruelty finally falls and in the resulting chaos and confusion either Teia or Viago end up seizing the seat of the First Talon. They're not sure whether to thank Lucanis or strangle him for causing such upheaval. Lucanis is too happy spending his days baking bread and testing out new recipes to really care.

[treviso-nights]

yes, if you absolutely must know, i WOULD fuck the entirety of the antivan crow faction in veilguard all at the same time, next question

[vonspe]

Emmrich always knows if the curse word manfred learned was from taash or Scipio based on wether it's in an antivan accent or not 😭

He knows its Taash because Scipio only ever says ”damn” and Manfred just exclaimed ”piss my own ass”
