VEILGUARD ARMOR SPOILERS

I'm so excited about the Mourn Watch mage armor--really digging the mortician vibe matching the faction! I've kind of been dying to have a really death positive OC or one in the death profession, so this was the perfect opportunity. I also think the joke of Solas hating death (since he put up the Veil, since elves became mortal), and him having to live inside the head of one of those mortal elves who finds decomposition beautiful.

One of the segments I really like from the letter is this part: because I think it really puts into perspective about why Kit feels so harshly towards Ty:

I really like that Cassandra is enforcing the idea of Kit having this bad sentiments towards secrets because there quite literally the thing that has continuously ruined his life.

Kit being Rooks secret is basically what led to Kit not being able to form proper relationships with people around him and even his own father. The secret of being the first heir is what made his mother leave him, and what led to her dying. He also cannot tell anyone about being the first heir as well.

AND AGAIN, Kit now having to keep a secret as big as Ty bringing Livvy back is also something that hinders is development with others. He literally cannot open to Jem&Tessa about what’s bothering him, and he loves them so much. And it also kind of plays on the fact we know Kit has a habit of expressing his feelings to others as well.

And again I like the mention of “a secret I never wanted to keep” because Kit is never in the position of wanting to keep said secret.

Like, it’s almost like he can’t start over as a shadowhunter because he still has to keep secrets. 🐇🐇🐇 Cassie u cooked so hard

hope this hasn't been done already but i still think about this meme a lot

(Some silly headcanons about Mortalitasi and Nevarran traditions that ended up leading me to Emmrich. How typical.)

We don't actually know all that much about Nevarra and their customs. World of Thedas and some of the in-game codex tells us some key points: strong royal families, a rich history of dragon hunting, an elite group of mages rumored to be heavily involved in makings of the country, and, of course, the thing that this country is most famous for - the fascination with the dead.

Our very own Nevarran companion mentions a couple of things about her home country:

And even though she doesn't seem fond of Mortalitasi practices or Nevarran customs surrounding the dead, she admits that some stories that pervade the South are greatly exaggerated:

(I feel so called out)

This makes me think that this interest in the dead is still a personal choice. I doubt that an average Nevarran is obsessed with those rituals any more than an average person from Ferelden is with theirs - those are just a part of their traditions that obviously affect their lives in unique ways, but that is all.

Now, Nevarran nobility are a different matter. They are said to start the construction of their tombs very early in life - lavishly decorated palaces with gardens, ballrooms and bathhouses. A sign of power and wealth for them, and that I can believe.

But when it comes to Mortalitasi, do they, in general, care as much? Do they take all these things, all these rituals, to extreme somehow, professional pride and all?

How much would a Mortalitasi care about their own tomb? Would Mortalitasi friends and colleagues ever promise to lead the other's ceremony depending on who dies first? "Oh, I'll totally mummify you if you're the one to go first, don't you worry, I know you think that Markus is getting sloppy".

The coffin sharing is also not unheard of (the spouses from The Flame Eternal), and I wonder if it's ever used as a grand gesture - to ask someone to be placed in the same tomb?

(And just imagine how messy this could get, the way people are. Building a tomb together only to have a falling out, what are you even supposed to do after that?)

Would it be romantic then, to tell your significant other that you don't want to ever part from them, even in death?

Beacause imagine Emmrich writing a quick letter to his friend from the Mourn Watch (Johanna, if they are still friends after all these years, or Myrna), "doing fine, on a saving the world business trip, will be back when I can; could I trouble you with a favor - a bigger coffin, installed in my tomb, not urgent, just whenever you have the time."

When the reply comes and his friend is (obviously) asking for a reason for such a sudden change, he just looks at Rook from the corner of his eye and replies with "no particular reason, just felt like it."

[speremint]

Finished veilguard and have many thoughts but none of my friends are done yet. I will probably do a second playthrough at some point just to do emmrich’s romance, but man…. Very torn on the game.
