ok but what if nerevar had gotten adopted into house dagoth instead of indoril and what if he fit right in and what if he was dagoth nerevar instead
#this is My canon tbh....eventually#in my mind palace nerevar ditches his position as king and holes up with the dagoth fam at kogoruhn#he never wanted to be king. only hortator#he didnt want to be a politician but a warrior and a leader and a *saviour*#i think he actually rly sucked at politics when he first went to mournhold to ask for the queen's support#so he was easy to win over as a pawn. u know what i mean???#he probably signed some contracts he couldnt even read#he was provably promised exactly what he wanted to hear but instead he got. a lot more on his plate than he asked for#fast forward many years later when he's much more influential and experienced#and he finally has enough of being what other ppl want him to be: a king . a saint. a husband#hes had enough of being idle when he should've taken action instead#and u know who's always by his side ...? who sees him for who he is? a mortal mer like the rest of them? voryn. its voryn.#and the dagoths in general#they never saw him as their king but as their equal: a mortal mer capable of making mistakes#he has their respect and their support but also their criticism and council#in the end they're his truest allies#and also the closest thing to a family he's ever had#he gets on well with all the dagoth siblings. not just voryn#if anything.. voryn gives him the harshest treatment actually#bc voryn wants nerevar to be the best version of himself he possibly can be#even moreso than azura!#ofc voryn loves him. but most importantly voryn sees both the good and the bad in nerevar#and they dont shy away from being blunt with him#which is something nerevar appreciates. the dagoths' practical honesty and bluntness is a breath of fresh air for him#compared to everything he had in mournhold#i hope u get what i mean bc goodness knows im bad with words#txt
