we’re just innocent sylvari
Haema belongs to snoodles, and the Staring belongs to vlpn. We all separately arrived at making characters who are “almost but not quite Sylvari,” which I think is fun. They’re all estranged from the Pale Tree, because of course they are.
[Long description: The Lastborn, Haema, the Staring, and Blighted Trahearne sitting in the palm of the Pale Tree. She rubs her temples and says “You do know that I still love you, right?” But the reception is not great.
Haema scoffs. “Do you even know who I am?” while the Staring, biting back tears, says “You LEFT me BEHIND :(” The Lastborn shoots her a pair of fingers and says “Eat it, mossback.” Trahearne says nothing as he gets down on his hands and knees, despondent.
Noticing this, the Lastborn’s hackles bristle at a vexed-looking Pale Tree. He says, “oh NOW you’ve done it. Look, you made your son cry.” Haema makes an off-hand comment “How embarrasing.” while the Staring turns to look and says “Oh, are we crying now?”
Reunion descends into chaos. The Lastborn starts biting the Pale Tree ineffectually. Trahearne manages to say, “I’m fine.” But Haema starts teasing him, “Nooooo you’re not. You are SUCH a momma’s boy.” Whatever he says in response is drowned out by the sound of the Staring letting out a piercing wail. The Pale Tree looks exhausted.]
