Sapphic4Sapphic Raihan x Leon icons !

You find them lost somewhere in the new Region and Raihan is sighing about how he TOLD Leon to get the map at the visitor center while Leon laughs light heartedly like “well we would’ve never seen this beautiful clearing if I did!”

Obviously Leon got assigned as a "King" pretty quickly, and Rose even refers to him as a "Knight in shining armor."

Then Sonia is aligned as a "Queen" in Masters and even shares a name with Queen Sonja of Norway and a love of museums.

The expectations upon seeing these two are quick and clear. A Queen and a Knight fall in love and getting together to become Queen and King in classic storybook fashion.

Meanwhile Raihan is very clearly assigned the dragon role, his fangs and sharp eyes are quick to establish that, as is his Vault he is protective of.

And Nessa is known for her beauty and grace, along her love and connection to the ocean while still holding a fierce temper. A Siren/Mermaid comes to mind at her aesthetic.

They are the fantasy creatures/obstacles that need to be overcome by the "heroes" in a typical fairy tale.

The Knight is meant to slay the Dragon, the Queen is meant to stay in her kingdom walls and marry.

But Sonia and Leon didn't fall in love, they didn't follow the exception of the fairy tale set before them. Instead they grew apart awkwardly and regretfully.

In someway maybe even guilty they couldn't play into their roles much to the disappointment of the people around them.

And in their drifting apart they come across those very people in which storybooks warned about; a dangerous tricky dragon fiercely protecting its horde, a vicious bloodthirsty siren luring you into its waters.

But they aren't like the storybooks either.

The Dragon delights in fair company, and a playful challenge. Willing to offer any who ask, a tour inside of his treasure hold.

The Siren finds beauty and love the sea and all that lives in there, wishing to protect her reefs from further damage.
