@apexulansis - on love.

❝ BECAUSE YOU ARE FASCINATING, and ne'er have I seen a creature such as you. Like a beast upon two legs. ❞

Tigras. Beasts with orange pelts and white bellies from the Land of Reeds. Tigers, in the common language. This one bears teeth to match, yet his fur is whiter than Miquella's own vestments.

No, not to match, Miquella thinks, But to exceed. Whatever this stranger is, the Empyrean is alight with questions whitherward.

❝ You are so tall. From where do you hail? Have you kin? Do you come somewhither far away? ❞

The cricket creaks its song in Miquella's pale hands. He closes his fingers around it, like a cage of porcelain, and moves to stand. Tall. More prominent than one would expect. His legs wish to move forward - Miquella forbids it. Let any embrace of his invitation be upon the creature's own will.

❝ Let's meet as wise men, and share as wise men do. ❞
