in her late twenties, kore convinced her surviving sibling to become land dwelling. a violent inner divide within her colony and its neighboring one sprung forth, claiming the life of her younger sister in its height. although the event left her shaken and erratic, she also saw this as her only opportunity to escape the overarching claw of her mother's control. to land kore took herself and her sibling, looking to create a life separate of the pod's worsening turmoil. kore traveled with their sibling for a handful of years, attempting to figure out proper life in the world of mortals ( and come to find out, more ). kore took to it well, finding herself enjoying attention and intrigue she brought with allure. in fact, she found the interaction and social aspect to be exhilarating and once she realized she could make a career off her voice later in life ... she did despite all the warning signs. a respectable career took off for her overseas under a fellow merfolk entertainment proprietor on land; a marketed woman with a haunting voice and face you'd die for. and die many ended up doing in small throes, victims of the lullaby of old legend. those who did not succumb were obsessed with kore, that haunting image in their hallucinations, and it became threatening to her. the backlash of a mermaid's song was never quite talked about enough and how dangerous it could be to have multiple affected persons. it quickly became dangerous. once again, kore was forced to flee, abetted by her sibling, and thus she landed in lafleur.

⸻ THE SONG, kore never exactly felt guilt over those affected by her voice. in fact she at first couldn't help but to find it a bit amusing how quickly most succumbed. this, never spoke aloud, but true. her actions aren't intentional, she just struggles to find herself fully involved. it is her nature, she enjoys her singing and her voice. however, since her departure from the stage kore has not sang again. perhaps this is her guilt manifesting or a quiet fear in threatening her safety again. she hasn't admitted this either.

⸻ LAFLEUR, the last place she had ever wanted to end up, however she is making the most of it ... kind of. compared to bigger cities ad coastlines with stretching blue seas, lafleur is a speck on the map. kore's favorite thing has been the state's rich atmosphere and festivals outside of the town. at almost three years, she has finally began to settle and accept that she's safest here.

⸻ THE REVELATION, the revelation of vampires has kore intrigued by the reasoning behind it. however, she doesn't necessarily think its a bad choice. predators are known of in the grass in form of snakes, in the tundra as wolves, in the forests as bears ... the neighborhood vampire should be known. while she doesn't believe all vampires, or any supernatural, to be dangerous in personality or intent ... she knows herself and her apathy towards mortals. in turn, she knows how mortals are scared of anything stronger than them. she takes a neutral stance and keeps herself even quieter now regarding her own.

a once feeble hearted mortal, turned by their maker under the guise of great purpose; a false promise to be something greater than a aimless traveler in the midst of india's turmoil in the 1400s. as all things go, it was too good to be true. arjun became a subject of prolific exploitations and going against the balancing rules of the vampire authority. targeting of fellow vampires, other supernaturals and harmful use of mortals. through sheer wit and eventual allyship with members of the council once they'd sailed to america, arjun managed to usurper their maker and convince the council of his wrongdoings. however, justice is not clean and arjun has been left permanently shifted by the means in which they'd outsmarted their maker. mimicking the ideal progeny and right hand man comes with scars and a disillusion of the self over years. trust comes slow, if at all and their idea of protection is often seen as overbearing and erratic due to fear of betrayal.

⁰⁵. 𝐓𝐈𝐃𝐁𝐈𝐓𝐒,

⸻ THE MONARCH, they were considered by the authority for lousiana due to their feat over their master and how closely arjun worked with council heads. it wasn't arjun's first decision and they were hesitant to take a position further than, that they'd consider, eyes on the ground ... but they were convinced due to enjoyment of the state. they've overseen louisiana for a total of thirty years following the destruction of the previous monarch.

⸻ LAFLEUR, they have been a constant come-and-goer within this specific town. due to their position they attempt to make an appearance across multiple cities, trying to maintain a presence towards other vampires. it wasn't until the great revelation that they settled within this town. ⸻ THE REVELATION, arjun was against it and they find the themselves further disturbed. a sense of control has been taken away from them and floods into threatening their agency. in retaliation, they established the dive meant for vampires: afterhours, on a whim. their first operator was their own progeny, but since then they've opened more to other vampires to assist in running it.

⸻ THE FELLOWSHIP OF THE SUN, the very thing they'd fretted about; the threat of safety and agency. it was only a matter of time. if inner-species turmoil was potential, of course mortal turmoil would be. they've become increasingly paranoid in the following years due to the whispers of formations and interact cautiously with those not within their circle.
