#LadiesOfLightLore #Khorijin
Even as a child, Khorijin was a fair bit taller than most Xaela girls her age.
I also imagine that her horns here grew and curled into their current shape, and that her earrings were a gift from either her mother or her older twin sisters that she has worn for a while.
#LadiesOfLightLore
Physically, #Euphemia is the combination of several aspects from her three present day shards.
#Mirita: forehead dots, skintone, root hair color
#Khorijin: eye color
#Rija: highlight hair color, some physical mannerisms (1/3)
Nonbinary children are free to travel with either clan, or neither, as they see fit: #Khorijin and her older sister Berude, for instance, were born to a cis Borlaaqi woman and a nonbinary masc Iriqi. #LadiesOfLightLore (3/3)
#Mirita: red/black
#Khorijin: blue/white
#Rija: pink/black in either order, with a little brown sometimes
#Khoride: dark blue/white
#Ystride: sky blue/white
#Euphemia: black, red, blue
#Helena: green, orange, yellow/gold
#Zardaar: purple/sky blue

I think this is better answered in two screenshots because there's nuance to it depending on who you're asking about.

#LadiesOfLightLore
The short answer to this: #Mirita, #Khorijin, and #Rija are technically the WoLs in terms of the major story beats, but the Ladies of Light as a whole all participate in the plot of the main story. #Fubuki and #Touka are just regular retainers who work for them. (1/3)
#LadiesOfLightLore
#Mirita: Ala Mhigo
#Khorijin, #Khoride: The Azim Steppe
#Rija: The Golmore Jungle (the village of Muscadet)
#Ystride: It's Complicated (you could say Ishgard)
#Euphemia: She says "Ala Mhigo", but it's complicated
#Helena: Bozja
#Zardaar: Not Etheirys (1/2)
#LadiesOfLightLore
Spring - #Mirita, #Euphemia
Summer - #Khorijin, #Khoride
Autumn - #Rija, #Zardaar
Winter - #Ystride
#LadiesOfLightLore
#Khorijin came to Gridania from the Azim Steppe; she was simply in pursuit of new techniques to give her an edge in the Naadam and became a Lancer mostly because she already knew how to use a spear. (2/4)
#Mirita #Khorijin #Rija #Khoride #Ystride #Euphemia #Helena #Zardaar #Fubuki #Touka are all Black.
Some of their families, all just as Black, are also included in this post: blacksky.community/profile/did:...
Happy Black History Month.

4. Sexuality. Khorijin is sapphic, much like #Mirita, who is her long-term partner.
#LadiesOfLightLore #Khorijin
3. Pronouns. Khorijin's are she/her.
#LadiesOfLightLore #Khorijin
2. Birthplace. Khorijin was born on the Azim Steppe. Her mother Gorbeljin is a Borlaaqi woman and currently the khatun of the Borlaaq (but was not when Khorijin was born), and her other parent is a nonbinary Au Ra, Kuyuk of the Iriq.
#LadiesOfLightLore #Khorijin
1. Full name. Khorijin of the Borlaaq on the Steppe, or just Khorijin Borlaaq abroad.

A group of Au Ra and one Elezen all standing together on the Azim Steppe. The mother of the family, Gorbeljin, stands at the center. Her second oldest daughters Orgelen and Orbei flank her on the viewer's left and right respectively, her second youngest daughters Khorijin and Khoride are out to her further right and further left, and her oldest daughter Berude stands in the back next to her youngest adopted child, Ystride.
Helena, a brown leopard-patterned Hrothgar woman, looking at another Hrothgar woman--her mother, Vesna. Her father, Sambor, grins proudly at her while Helena and Vesna stand face-to-face.
Mirita, a Black Seeker Miqo'te woman, speaks excitedly to a Miqo'te woman of similar complexion with glasses and graying hair.
Mirita, a Black Seeker Miqo'te, looking up and smiling, while ghostly images of her mother and father rest their hands on her shoulder and look on in approval.
For non-WoLs, we have Khorijin, Khoride, and Ystride's family, Helena's mother Vesna and father Sambor, Mirita's aunt M'aka, and her birth parents M'toko Ranh and M'jalla Nunh, deceased. They are also all Black. (2/3)

Here's the main cast, essentially a team of WoLs: #Mirita, #Khorijin, #Rija, #Khoride, #Ystride, #Euphemia, and #Helena. They're all Black.
(The actual lore is too complex for what I've got time to post, but you can learn bits of things by checking #LadiesOfLightLore.) (1/3)

Mirita, a Black Seeker Miqo'te, looking up and smiling, while ghostly images of her mother and father rest their hands on her shoulder and look on in approval.
Gorbeljin, a Black Au Ra woman, looks at the camera, with what appears to be a mildly indifferent expression. She is clearly middle aged, with slight wrinkles on her face.
#LadiesOfLightLore | #LadiesOfLightPhotos
While I do not have pictures of everyone, do have:
- #Mirita and her parents
- Gorbeljin, Khorijin's mother. #Khorijin and #Khoride are the only blood daughters she has who have inherited her eye and hair colors. (2/2)
#LadiesOfLightLore
(IC explanations first, OOC later)
#Mirita: "I'm a woman, an' I think women're cute m'nya!"
#Khorijin: "...As am I, and as do I. (whilst looking at Mirita)"
#Rija: "I find that I am a woman who samples flowers often and trunks on occasion~" (1/4)
#LadiesOfLightLore
It's 50/50. There are parts of me that are parts of the Ladies, both the things I aspire to and the things that I sometimes feel heavy things about, but I look at them as their own people. #Mirita is a lot of my inner sunniness. #Khorijin, some of my reclusivity, etc. (1/2)
#LadiesOfLightLore
#Mirita: Originally from a DnD character who was, humorously, nothing much like her. Her Ala Mhigan birth name came later.
#Khorijin and #Rija: Chosen randomly from a pool of appropriate names for their origins.
#Khoride: Khorijin's name blended with her sister Berude's. (1/2)
#LadiesOfLightLore
#Mirita: "Let's get goin', m'nya!"
#Khorijin: "Come."
#Rija: "I hope you can dance well~"
#Khoride: "Brave, to face a Devil Goddess."
#Ystride: "...If we must."
#Euphemia: "...Well, now."
#Helen: "Hmph. Let's see."
#LadiesOfLightLore
#Khorijin will hear it and hit you with the "I see" unless you make it explicit that you're serious about what you're saying. There is a reason why her romance difficulty is 3.5/4 hearts, and one of those is her natural stoicism and difficulty opening up. (2/5)
Khorijin, a Black Xaela Au Ra, looking at the camera with a firm expression.
#LadiesOfLightLore | #LadiesOfLightPhotos
#Khorijin:
- she/her (cis woman)
- "CO-ree-jin". "Khori" is only accepted from close friends or Miri. (2/7)
Two Black Auri women--twin sisters-- looking vaguely at each other and toward the camera, with their bodies partially turned away from each other. One has short hair and no lipstick with a neutral expression, while the other has her hair in a long braid and is smirking. Their hair colors are blue with white highlights.
Mirita, a Black Seeker Miqo'te, dashing under the sunlight, with a confident smile on her face.
A study in sisterhood for FemRa Friday, and a cat on a cooldown run.
