Day 162

Grian if he were in fashion common on my OC world Zienna ! ( pronounced zee-en-nah)

Ziennian fashion is very haute couture inspired, think Hunger Games Capitol fashion. Very excessive, generally loose and flowy (personal preference), and heavy on the patterns. This is NOT an animation friendly fashion style LOL

So I present, their Majesty, Monarch Xylo!

Xylo was the first nonbinary Ziennian royalty, and went on to marry a neighboring kingdom’s queen. (Zienna is pronounced Zee-en-ah, and Ziennian is pronounced Zee-en-ee-an, jsyk! 💖) Same sex relationships were well accepted at this point in Ziennian history, as were binary trans people, but Zienna was still struggling with nonbinary trans people. And Xylo was the first to break that in a significant way.

Xylo uses strictly they/them pronouns, so even if you are referring to them as a child please use they/them!

When they ascended to the throne in the midst of chaos, everyone expected them to wear their mother’s coronation dress and be crowned Queen. But Xylo defied expectations and wore their father’s coronation suit, being crowned Monarch instead.

They brought a lot of success to their kingdom, even uniting all 21 kingdoms into an alliance, hence the later 21 Districts of Zienna.

Also your honor I love them so much Xylo is just amazing and I am in love.
