✶ — › 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐂𝐔𝐓 𝐓𝐇𝐀𝐓 𝐀𝐋𝐖𝐀𝐘𝐒 𝐁𝐋𝐄𝐄𝐃𝐒 ‹ — ✶

     The air was stagnant with tension, all hair standing to it's end at the back of the swordsman neck. Each speck of dewing sweat was acutely felt as it trickled at a leisurely pace down his tightening face. Frenzied black eyes darted from side to side as if to make appear an ally that could save him from this souring situation he found himself in. Sadly, Scáthach was not an all magical being who could simply spawn a friend to do away with the growing aggression towards him. Yet despite that, or even because of it, the swordsman readied himself for the losing battle ahead with a hand that grabbed at the cool steel he recognized fondly as his blade. This was his fight, and he would be hard-pressed to step aside and let these scoundrels continue on sullying the names of great people.

   "I see no noble hearts around here! No, all I see are miserable imposters with dangerously inflated egos..." His eyes narrowed and became a full glare of contempt towards the two imposters that faced him. Scáthach could not contain the ire that had welled inside him like an erupting volcano oozing magma from his heart. Such swells of feeling left him paralyzed in their wake, completely powerless to the ebbs and flows of its will. Just the thought of these organized cheats using the name of Lord Seliph for their own ends only fueled the fire of his resolve to put an end to them all. Although these foreign feelings threatened to consume him, Scáthach was no longer scared to let the flames of his anger billow freely, at least for now. Where the eyes of friends could not reach, this was where he could let loose all those pangs of emotion he kept so carefully protected inside himself.

   "Because you are so sure of yourselves, though... I guess we'll see just how undefeatable you are." The proverbial gauntlet dropped, the swordsman unleashed his sturdy blade from its sheath, readied at last for combat. Yet just before the cadence of his strikes, Scáthach was halted by vivid shades of purple and black that were all too familiar to him. Was that... No, not Larcei. It was her.

POV God is Your Sister in Law

Swordsmasters of Elyos and Hoshido have long inspired people with their signature finishing move: the ability to cut through an opponent with dazzling speed, so fast that one can’t even perceive the blade leaving its sheath. The Battle of the Eagle and Lion reignites interest in learning these techniques. Determined students have made some progress but haven’t quite mastered the move. Think you can help them? [Grants Sword +1]

@eosasami

While it has admittedly been some time since Cadros had left Valla, as he wracks his brain, he cannot seem to recall Hoshido having such a technique as the one described by the swordsmaster before him. Perhaps it was something new? Must not have caught on then, because if it was truly that great, then it would have made its way down to Valla despite any odds.

Therefore! It must not be great at all! And Cadros can surely master it, even with his Nohrian background. Not that he cared for Nohr's cold steel anyway, they would never grant such respite to an enemy by allowing them a swift death like the one this technique would surely cause.

He sighs slightly as he turns to grab his sword - though it is not quite suited for this task either, an old Nohrian blade that he has carried with him for as long as he can remember, it will do for now - he falters as he feels the gaze of eyes upon his back. Eyes that feel like... Anankos' in a way.

Though, Anankos is not here now, is he? So surely it cannot be him. The woman he turns to see is unfamiliar, for the most part. From the glimpses of Anankos he can see in her, he can surely only reason that she must be Hoshido's God, the dragon of the dawn.

"Ah! Hello there, fair lady! You must wish to scold me on my form! Very well then! Proceed as you may! And... I must say, it is so terribly nice to finally be able to meet. Anankos has told me much."

Sham of a Prince { Katarina & Nanna

As the most successful scammers of the group, “Marth” and “Roy” are your biggest targets. A chance encounter in a large town brings you face to face with the two, but things turn complicated when a crowd forms in support of the imposters. A gaggle of fans proudly support these “down-to-earth princes”, viciously defending them against your supposed slander. Try as you might, just one sensuous “babygirl” from Marth is enough to rally the crowd against you. The puffed-up “Roy” goes as far as to say they are undefeatable in their strength and purity of heart… but can they prove it? [Grants Sword +1]

The concept of imitation was still abstruse to Nanna because it meant that the imitator only had enough substance to make half a man out of themselves. When Scàthach had explained to her that they needed a fake Lord Leif, it had dawned her that the nature of these scammers were no better than the likes of Shannam—who, in her youth, pranced around with King Shannan’s name as a sell sword.  Sighing, she didn’t know if that humanized the scammers or made it just a tad more exasperating on her part, but she supposed he was the one mimic who had been on their side. Retelling Katarina of her woes at fifteen, Nanna recalled Shannam lightheartedly. “—And you see! My childhood friend Mareeta told me that he had somehow taught her Astra…!”

As she waved her arms, animated and amused, Nanna inadvertently bumped into a man who slid his soft hand into hers with one fluid motion. “Excuse me, sir!” She enunciated each syllable, emerald eyes flaring dangerously. “I apologize for impinging on your space, but please unhand me!” Nanna snapped her hand away from him, before she was compelled to do something far more impulsive. She wasn’t exactly the pugnacious sort but…

Indignance seared over the man’s face, whose sky-blue eyes had a vague, insidious glint to them for a moment. His whole body reared away from her, as he flung his pompous blue locks back in spite. “Now, that is no way to treat the Hero-King Marth, miss! If only you were half as serviceable as you thought you were, attempting to lay your hands on me.” This ��Hero-King’ had hallowed cheekbones and a long maw that must have belonged on the other end of a horse. He shrugged both shoulders, cockily shaking his head as he laughed his way out of his own embarrassment. ‘Marth’s’ blue eyes met Katarina’s and smirked, gesturing to her with a vanity that bordered on flirtation. “Isn’t that right, baby girl?”

“Don’t you prefer the company of a prince?” He winked.

He couldn't even keep his titles straight.

Nanna raised her hand to him, half-arched to slap his wits about him— only to be grabbed by the wrist by another man with a red fringe that wasn’t entirely dyed. “And now you’re raising a hand to him, too? You should be honored that Hero-King Marth and Prince Roy of Lycia are of pure heart! Isn’t that right, starlings?”

Erupting from both sides of the open square were a group of young girls who clamored in infatuated squeals. “Y-yes, our Kings! You should be glad they are as merciful as they are kind!” A couple of childish voices rang out from the crowd.

“Oh come off it,” Nanna disregarded their effrontery with a scoff and a snap of her wrist, cracking away from this ‘Roy’ character. “Katarina, I think we’ve got our scam—” Nanna stopped in her tracks, as Katarina’s face was contorted in a way nearly unrecognizable. “—mers…”

The Ones Who’ll Help You Find the Way [Anankos & Seliph]

There’s been word of crumbling ruins, remnants of an old town and its gravesite becoming overgrown with strange greenery. Beautiful though its blooms may be, superstition and old maid’s tales have painted it as a beautifully haunting omen for a disaster to come. To that effect, the neighboring villages are too afraid to venture and clear it up, avoiding any and all routes that might cross it, and so have pleaded for aid from every passerby willing to help. As you enter the mouth of the ruins to dispel their needless fears, however, you find that these are no mere ruins. The vines close the entryway from which you came, and, looking ahead, you find that the ruins are, in fact, a huge maze. To make matters worse, the vines that now prevent you from leaving don’t seem to be content to stop there. All around you, the labyrinth shifts and changes; the walls move, the plants snake and snap. You and your companion must hack and cut your way through and find a way out, lest you intend to bury yourselves in a grave that never needs to beg for flowers. [Grants Sword +1]

starter for @virtuoustyrfing

All he had wanted was to explore some ruins, ever curious - even in the madness that had since befallen him - about the lives of humans and the things that they left behind. He had expected a nice stroll, maybe even a few interesting artifacts to look at if he was lucky. Getting stuck inside by a barrier of plants was certainly NOT part of the plan.

He sighed, standing from the spot where he had stumbled to the ground in surprise after noticing the ruins had closed behind him. Heels echo across ruined stone as he begins to explore the nearby pathways. At least one of them had to lead to some way out sooner or later; right?

                                                       *********

No. No they didn’t. He learned that fact the hard way as his head began to spin trying to remember which way he’d gone and which way he hadn’t. All of the stones looked the same! And it didn’t help that the maze was shifting constantly, making it even harder to discern where exactly he was heading. At this rate, he wasn’t even going to be able to find his way back to the entrance with his luck. A loud sigh slips from his lips, echoing through the tight corridors. He trudged onward, hoping that maybe someone else had gotten stuck in here in the meantime. Surprisingly, that seemed to be exactly the case. Under his cloak, his eyes widened a little as he spotted the young boy wandering as he did. Nearly tripping in his haste to catch up with him, he called out, his hood slipping a little in his desperation.

“Wait! Young man...!” He panted a little from the running, pausing for a moment to catch his breath. (Who cared if it wasn’t that far? He wasn’t in shape; alright?!)

“Apologies for bothering you...! But you wouldn’t happen to know a way out... would you?” It was probably a lost cause, but it certainly didn’t hurt to try. If he wanted to get out of here anytime soon, two pairs of hands were better than one!

[kiritella]

For those who haven't read The Witcher, I feel the need to tell you some things...

Ciri was something around 10, I think, when she met Geralt, and was a terrible brat.

One of the first times Geralt met Ciri, he gave her a piggy back ride because she hurt her leg.

He told her a bed time story because she asked him to.

Geralt is a sarcastic bastard, especially with Ciri.

Ciri led Geralt by the hand when he had to be blindfolded while walking through Brokilon forest by the Dryads.

Ciri would cling to Geralt's thigh when she was frightened.

Geralt would cuddle Ciri so that she could fall asleep, and she would reach out to him as she slept.

There were hugs, and I think all of them were initiated by Geralt himself because he could see that Ciri was frightened or he was just very happy to see her.

Stay tuned for more...

Insert Dragon Pun Here

From one blue-haired bozo to the next, would Severa ever catch a break?

No, no she wouldn’t. The only difference is that this little clod was silent, and honestly, she kinda preferred the babbling that his younger sister did. Eirika’s talking was annoying, but tolerable. It put any rampant thoughts at ease and allowed her to just focus on one thing; pointless words. Ephraim was the exact opposite, with the only thing audible being his footsteps. 

Dear Naga this was awkward, but not something completely unfamiliar. Gerome was worse. 

Like, yeah, they had a mission that was probably gonna be dangerous, but they still had a good long walk before they even got to that village! This was torture, the silence making each passing second feel like hours. Eventually, she gives a loud groan out, looking over at the knight.

“Gods, can you say literally anything? You’re just walking there in silence and it’s so off-putting!” She snaps, arms crossing as she stops in her tracks. This was more important than some stupid town getting attacked by some dragon that they could probably deal with themselves. Needing two knights to come along... this had to be some kind of joke. If only two knights were needed, then they ought to drop this dragon easily.

What’s That in Your Hands? A Knife!

Trudging through the dense brush surrounding the mountainous regions of Garreg Mach, the swordsman doesn’t quite know what he’s looking for. Allegedly, a knight had already been sent down capture some kind of animal that had been wielding a sword, which Shannan wasn’t even going to attempt to rationalize. His care for how this primate had obtained a sword, or even escaped was left back at the academy.

The basic rundown is that some noble from a nearby village lost their pet, and was throwing the biggest bitchfit about getting it back. It was bipedal, managed to get its hands on a sword (that it could use), and was bright orange. While the swordsman had never heard of such a beast like this, surely it couldn’t be that difficult to get home.

Well, a few hours later, and the academy had sent Shannan down the mountains to assist the knight that’d been tasked with apprehending this savage animal. 

It’d been a mostly fruitless search, yet suddenly he hears a noise from a nearby bush. In an instant, his palm finds the handle, feet spreading just a bit to solidify his stance. Watching those leaves shift about, his guard isn’t let down, until suddenly, a blur of orange lunges at him, wildly swinging a short sword around. 

In an instant, Balmung is unsheathed, meeting its swing, before the sword is twirled in his palm, allowing for a more comfortable grasp on the divine blade. Then, one final clash of their sword before a well placed parry knocks the monkey back. In response to the events, the furry being has one thing to say. 

Like a wailing banshee, a plethora of harsh screeches are sent Shannan’s way, before it retreats, doing what Shannan can only describe as a waddle. Taking this mission was a mistake. Maybe being beheaded by the noble for killing it was a solid way to go out...

And then lord Sigurd shows up, and he can’t decide whether his sigh should be annoyed, or relieved. “My lord. It’s good to see you,” he offers, at least polite enough to acknowledge the fatherly figure in his life. “You were the knight tasked with bringing that thing in, I assume?”
