Why Can’t I Hold All These OCs??

So this one is a particular batch since the three flowers I randomized were all white and all had meanings that connected rather nicely- so I weaved them into a three part story.

Hawthorn - "Hope for love/marriage" It all starts with a wedding between two eccentric lovebirds.

Yarrow - "Cure for a broken heart" The story goes on to become a tragedy, as one of the lovers perishes before her time. Her bride does not accept this early goodbye though.

Dogwood - "Our love will overcome adversity"

Queen Anne's Lace "Sanctuary" The fronds of this flower offer protection for the smallest animals, it's also called "bird's nest" for that reason. Coprinus is a priest but most importantly a protector against demons and other malignant spirits, so I thought he'd fit the flower quite well.

Rue "Regret" More than for expressing regret, this flower was often sent as a threat as in "you'll regret what you've done". Symbolically, the piece represents the moment Aidivni fell. They stare at their reflection in remembrance of what they can now only envy.

Nettle - "Cruelty of Misconception" This plant is often associated with cruelty due to its urticating quality. It also appears in the "The Seven Swans" fairytale from which I took the brother that received a half finished nettle tunic as inspiration for this day.

Dandelion - "Divination from Seeds" Since they're associated with fortune and wishes, I thought of a young dandelion witch that uses the seeds from her head to read the fortune of those in need. She also has a little parasol in case her glass sphere isn't enough protection against the wind.

Hyacith- "Forgive Me for Having Feelings" Hyacinths' name seem to come from one of Apollo's deceased lovers. Here, instead, it wasn't a lover to die but the love for that beloved after having her confession rejected. It was so rough for her poor heart, it felt like a slap to the face.

Violet- "Modest poetry" It is said that Saint Valentine used crushed violet as ink for his letters while jailed. I used this as inspiration for a blind messenger whom, even while not being able to read or write her beloveds letters with her eyes, she still does so by scenting them with flowers.
