Send 💌 for a love letter from my muse

---- 

Tyrelamu,

I never thought I’d be writing this letter, let alone revealing its contents to you. I am deeply ashamed by the way I once acted, I held such scorn in my heart for you over such trivial notions. This letter is my apology. An apology you’ve deserved for quite awhile. Yet I find myself without words to express my regrets. Time after time I’ve tried to speak them and felt them die on my lips. 

Now as I sit here listening to the quiet sound of your breathing and feel the calming aura of your presence I am still unable to give you the explanation you deserve, the one you coveted for so long. The only truth I can offer is: you are a light in the darkness, a darkness I once thought there was no end to. You brought me hope.

I love you, 

Zaeas Flamefall

Zaeas once thought it was a great idea to go into an abandoned temple without rope or weapons. Got stuck in a pit 

Unless this is a serious question then none of them have any good ideas. 

Because I’m terrible. >.<

Selithil definitely has. Zaeas would have countless times in his youth but considering it now is out of the question for him. And Veri is also a yes though he would be even more cautious about it because he wouldn’t want them to get the wrong impression or end up in an unfavorable situation with unreciprocated feelings.

  The only one who ever has and likely still will tell stories when around friends is Zaeas. Why? Because he has no shame or any inkling of tact and doesn’t have an honorable bone in his body, plus he’s  kiiind of a dick -- but that goes hand in hand :P

👛 which muse is the most frugal

Zaeas. I wouldn’t call him frugal, he’s more like a cheapskate. Even though he has enough money to not be a stingy dickhead. Hasn’t even bought his sister a Winter’s Veil present for the past...probably around 50 years or so.

👠 which muse loves shopping sprees?

Selithil. Shoes and clothes galore. You know those closets that everything just falls out of when you open their doors? Yeeeah.. she has three, and an wardrobe. 

I know I’ve said Veri and Canerae and I still stand by that one as well, because he’d definitely use her for some scheme but since I’ve said those two before..

Zaeas and Veri. Who actually already work together but they’re a couple of thieves. Zaeas knows when he gives shoddy products to Veri to sell and Veri takes way too much of a cut to sell any of these “artifacts” just because he can. So I guess they’re mostly horrible to each other, and the people who buy/seek these things and pay too much. Veri’s even sent Zaeas on some wild goose chase before for something a “client” wanted that didn’t actually exist, too.

Send me ‘☠’ to hear what my muse would say to yours if they were completely drunk off their head.

— 

 Zaeas downed flagon after flagon, the alcohol beginning to drown out the rowdy patrons around him. He was even able to ignore the lilting rhythm of drunken sailors singing along to one another’s chopped versions of different sea shanties. His own words slurred together, “You knowsh a pretty lady likesh you probably shouldn’t be here.” His eyes narrowed as though he were trying to process just who she might be, “If I hadsh a lady friend likesh you I wouldn’t be here either. Let’sh both not be here – together. ….hic!”

 Zaeas looked from the broken artifacts back to the rogue and back again, unsurprised but lacking the willpower to conceal his frustration. “Again? How many times are you going to break things?!”

Veri shrugged, “Until you pay me.”

“You know you actually have to do the work to get paid, right?!”

With an assuming grin he flicked piece after piece of the shattered artifact at the priest, “Right but, I need a raise. The last thing you handed me gave me nightmares and weird cravings for a month. Can’t sell that to someone without full disclosure. Do you know how hard that was? I want a raise.”

Zaeas ran a hand over his face and sighed, “Fine, you can take a bigger cut, just stop breaking the merchandise!”
