#cotl ask

You're not the first and you would not be the last

Just figured, what with how hard they take the necessary sacrifices of The Keys, I can only imagine how they feel about their completely unnecessary deaths, and by their own hands no less!

DING DING DING! Finally, someone who remembers that Shamura makes you kill 3 followers. Thank you so much for this ask; I've been waiting for it for a long time.

Now, this is the main problem with the former Spider Bishop and their relationship with the False Prophet: Shamura made it personal.

While Heket and Kallamar only caused minor problems for the cult, things that were completely solvable (and when they were brought into the cult, it caused them some karma in how they were treated), Shamura is a completely different matter.

The False Prophet is a mix of sentimentalist and possessive with their cult, their property, what's theirs. The punishment for defiling what is under that title is great and painful, but forcing them to do it with their own hands? The emotion is difficult to describe, much less the retaliation.

The only reason Shamura is alive and in the cult is a mixture of keeping their word to Silkcradle Key, who asked them not to hold a grudge, as well as waiting for Time to give them a solution for the hole in their chest that demands that the spider pay.

I guess not...

THAT is a terrible idea. You remember How Tashi first reacted to you. That reaction came from somewhere. Someone told them that you were evil, and that touching you would instantly obliterate a light spirit.

That someone is the Spirit tree. THEY told everyone that, and either they don't know any better, or they're lying.

So if you show up in the middle of that meeting going whoop dee doo me be a dark spirit: In the best case scenario, the Tree sees you, Panics, and starts lashing out because to the tree's knowledge, you are the evil and the obliterate. In the worst case scenario the tree is lying about the evil, and that lie is about to get completely shattered. And that means the Tree, who really does not like their authority to be challenged, is going to do Everything it can to keep that lie alive.

In either case, You're going to be staring down the business end of a lot of hostility. So no, absolutely not. That is WAY too dangerous to everyone present here.

24. If they were to be a parent or are, what epithet would they have their child use? Mom? Mama? Dad? Baba? Nony? Abba?

mother/father because the lamb likes to keep things formal and polite

27. Is your lamb flirtatious?

he can be flirtatious to get what he want. with narinder, however...

31. Is your lamb ever honest about their feelings or past? With who?

never basically. he keeps his past entirely to himself. nobody else other than narinder knows who he really is and where he's from. as for the feeling, he keeps his emotions to himself too and rarely opens up.

36. Is your lamb a good cook?

not at all. he relies on narinder (mainly) or his followers to do the cooking for him.

40. An impulsive kiss

This line really shows how much Tashi's grown as a person and also I have that frame saved in my phone to look at
