Hi! Yes, it’s high suspicion, a general lack of trust!

I’m glad EL could offer you something right now, and I hope you continue to find things that help get you through this! 

Anyway, regarding her aging, I expect that they’d be too preoccupied with the panic/bitter acceptance of watching her get older and more frail to be too bothered by things like vanity; Gha’alian’s tend to view things that happen to the body as a result of surviving as beautiful, and it’s a weird uncharted territory for them hmm.

Yesss I’m workin on some stuff ;) ;) ;)

Hmm he had two brothers, he the (edit) MIDDLE (pff not youngest, typed that wrong), his younger brother died. His older brother and his father are more or less off doing their own thing--their relationship that sort that .. haven’t spoken in a year but when we see each other it falls back into place without a hitch but we’re by and large living our own livessss? This isn’t so much because of distance like you may see that sort of thing IRL/modern life, but his older brother is a soldier who is frequently out and about on assignment and his father works on ships.

And ahh thank you for the compliments <3  Hmm, okay, here’s some information on his engagement, which I know isn’t nearly as fun as seeing it in game but hopefully it offers something; Vadeyn was engaged to an elf quite a few years before he meets MC(around twenty, I’d say). He found out, in the end, that she had an interest in marrying into his family, and thought she could shape him into a more ideal Gha’alian, that she found his actual... well, personality about as off-putting as most Gha’alians do, and was simply holding out hope that with a bit of work/manipulation he’d fall in line. Vadeyn was gullible and uncharacteristically unobservant to the point that he was clearly just believing about this what he wanted to, and was unlikely to break it off before the wedding or call it out quickly afterward, but she ended up feeling guilty, and perhaps afraid Cali would stab her in her sleep, and called it off. She explained her position and motivations blatantly, at that point, and Vadeyn was distraught for a little while, as you could imagine. He got over it *fairly* fast, all the same, getting angry before too long and eventually that fizzled down into a quieter bitterness you still see bits of in him by the time MC comes along. I’m sorry that conversation got dropped! I had a list of things I needed to remember to put in, somewhere, too, but ahhh I must’ve forgot even so and the whole end of EL’s development is a hazzzzeeee now

Hmm, fun fact, the whole first scene in Edric was my first attempt at putting together a vn--which is to say, arranging the script and the art and such, I didn’t have too much of an idea where the story would go when most of that was written, so if it feels disjointed from the rest of the plot.. the proper plot, I would not be surprised! 

Haron doesn’t really believe her, either, but is intrigued and a little entertained; he is careful not to do anything that might be construed as ‘taking advantage’ until he’s sure she’s not the confused one, here, but hey if his past self said she was the one then he’s willing to trust himself. 

ANYWAY! No Rylen secret route, I’m afraid, but Rylen is a darling character of mine (though they doooo say to ‘kill your darlings’...) and I’ve an idea involving pirates where we might see him again...

Oh wow, thank you! I really appreciate that! I’ll give it some thought! 

He certainly has sooooome admirers, though perhaps small in number they are devoted and he wouldn’t ask for any more~

Aww I’m trying to figure out what this could be and I’m afraid I’m not sure... the last three slots are for igon, then beside the clothes at Kadia there’s the hood and cloak... and the nightgown, starter outfit, and ‘gha’alian outfit’ she’s given (the brown and purple one). Hmmmm.... that help any?

Haron turns up the charm, as he does, and Vanya is VERY suspicious of him. Arguably more than any of the others. Haron endures, and wants MC to show him all her favorite places in the forest.

Ahhh, yes~ It follows the same line of thought for me, though admittedly they’re quite different yes!

edit: Lol and I just answered one about forgetting Ernol(?) Ernol is grumpy and not a pleasant patient but he is repentant once he’s feeling better.

Let’s see. Middle child, Lonre’s only daughter. She’s the only one of his children that’s really taken up his business; and in that regard, she’s more or less his protege. She has zero interest in the Gha’alian forces or indeed, any of Gha’alia ‘traditional’ culture, and loves to travel. She’s... something of a sadist and not one you’d want to pay you much attention, good *or* bad, unless you were very brave or liked to play games.

That’s what I had written down, though there are certainly some other words used that I hadn’t added to my little note list!
