The Coreilmar siblings!! Back before anyone was kidnapped or separated :] Just a freshly hatched Neirin being witnessed by his siblings for the first time!! They're very excited to have a baby brother :]

Updated references for Mairenn and Taran! Slightly more distinct bodies and some refining of their outfits :] Their og references felt rather lifeless and especially Mairenn's outfit wasn't really cutting it.

Crywank lyrics and these 3 disaster siblings? Yeah, yeah.

I think there's a special kind of unease that settles when Mairenn and Taran realize how far they've pushed Neirin in the two years since reconnecting with him. How vastly they've unintentionally beaten him down to a shell of who he was with their expectations and how despondent he's gotten to them.

They'll figure out how to get better, to be better. Its a long road for them all but one worth pursuing.

New oc project called Wedding Bell Blues, with no relation to the song lol.

This started as a worldbuilding project but it has developed plot and characters which I'm sure I will elaborate on later. If you want answers sooner feel free to send an ask! ;]

For now I leave some descriptions of these characters under the cut.

Lord Kaerrfuar (Kaerr) is nobility of the Winter Court. Child of the princess and the duke she wed, Kaerr has grown under the guidance of the faith of the Winter god and serves their Court with all they have. This includes dedicating themself entirely to the marriage arranged by their aunt and uncle to one of the heirs of Coreilmar. They are around 90-100 years old, which makes them functionally a young adult (20-25ish) in regards to how my elven aging system works.

Prince Neirin of Coreilmar is the youngest of his siblings at around 60 years old, which makes him a young adult (near 24) for a merling. He is the godling of bonds, and holds tight to the relationships he has with those around him. Kidnapped and displaced as a child he grew up in a small nation called the Wetlands, and has only been reunited with his family in Coreilmar in the last few years which has proven difficult in many ways. The newest of his struggles comes in the form of an arranged marriage which he has taken on to spare his siblings, and which may prove to be his final straw in a tall pile of issues.

King Faruaill is the very recently coronated king of the Winter Court, and cousin to Kaerr. He is about 100-120 which places him as an adult by elven maturity standards (functionally 26-30 ish leaning towards the younger end). He succeeded the throne after his parents went tragically missing only a few months before his dear cousin's marriage was to happen. He keeps in contact with Kaerr to support them throughout this and despite their mischief they do try to be genuine.

Prince Taran of Coreilmar is the middle child of the siblings, though he and his sister hatching days apart has them regarded as twins more than anything else. He is 68ish which is about 27 or so developmentally. He is the godling of Storms (and eventually justice). His deal is a bit complicated, but he is stuck in a need for familiarity and is stubborn in it despite the need for change around him and within himself. Princess Mairenn of Coreilmar is the eldest of her siblings, though she is only so by a few days. She is the same age as Taran. As the godling of the Ocean she commands the tides and takes advantage of her reach to keep tabs on the goings on of the nature around her. Even still she longs for beyond their borders and indulges in travel when given the chance. She cares deeply for her brother, though she finds herself babying one and often scolding the other, trying to keep her family playing along with one another's wants, mostly the wants of the Empress, to avoid strife in the cold palace.

That's all for now!! :] more info to come surely but hopefully this is a good dip into this world :]
