·:¨༺ ✩★✩ ༻¨:·. This is not an easy ask. The traveler has picked a most difficult subject and he doesn't know how to convey it all well without needing to explain much. Valo is his own beast right now because of the damage he took when they all fell. Wonderland is a harsh cruel climate and it is nothing like their Misterica so it has been rough. When he landed in Wonderland he found the pair of them - Aamunkoitto and Valo crash landed in a forest with no food and many injuries. Aamunkoitto had attempted to make a camp for them but he only had limited training considering the military background of his parents. They were both a mess. Aamunkoitto's glasses were shattered and Valo was... barely alive. The man of roses was in a mad panic that the historian was without his medication but he's been like that ever since. He doesn't know how he's survived all these years but somehow he managed to live through the puncture wound in his leg and the deep scratches that tore themselves into his belly. Whatever Valo landed on he - didn't land gracefully and from the looks of Aamunkoitto he tried to cushion the descent with the best of his ability. They're lucky the pair of them were still alive.
It was all he could do to get them to town. He can still remember begging and pleading with the Innkeeper for some kind of help in and language he had no grasp of. He didn't understand anything the man said and the man didn't understand him but he must have at least understood the look of desperation in his eyes and the pleading vibrations of his voice. If it meant that Tähtien Valo lived, he'd beg a thousand times over and then do it again. If that's what it took to keep his family alive. Somehow he was successful and when Valo was feeling more himself, he went to work using that linguist brain of his to cracking the code of this Wonderlandian language and making sure they all could understand and communicate better than the mess that had occurred only months prior. Valo had been bedridden for months and somehow that man let them stay if only for trade of manual labor and help around his small shack of an establishment. He isn't now but that doesn't change what he was. Every day he thanks the Celestial Mother above for sparing the man's life and allowing him to continue to breathe. It hasn't been easy but he's here. Now he's quiet and he's tired. He's always been like that so it's not something that's changed. Now he can't stand for long periods and he favors his right leg. When they couldn't fly it had become even more difficult for the man. He needs to talk to that Cid fellow about a cane. Valo could never fly for long distances but now he can't even walk for them. Somehow it feels like it's his fault even if he knows it isn't, but if anyone blames themselves more than the knight does, it's certainly Aamunkoitto.
Aamunkoitto is also his own mess. He's nearly lost his sight all together but refuses to tell anyone. His glasses only did so much, especially when they were cracked. He kept insisting on wearing them even know they were all aware they were hardly doing anything. The mathematician almost cut his hair many times in the past years but he watched the man crumble to pieces when their resident starlight weakly asked him not to. He's watched the man of roses break more times than he cares to count... .. but that's what happens when you go without food and water for days on end. There wasn't always an inn to sleep in or a town to find supplies. There wasn't always a river to fish from with food that was safe to eat. They couldn't always sniff out the poison or find the things that would have they laying on the forest floor from eating something that would only twist their stomachs in pain... and ... and there was plenty in this world that saw them as the meal even if he didn't know how that would work since their bodies fade out when they die. Mist eaters he called them and he's watched creatures inhale it like it was a precious resource they couldn't get enough of. Truly this world was filled with demons like he could have never imagined and Aamunkoitto could hardly see any of them because of the state of his eyes. Even with the repair to his glasses now that they have found refuge within Pilvi's sanctuary, he's seen the look on the man of rose's face when he attempts to read basically anything. He's as blind as his mist is but for some reason refuses to tell anyone about his struggles. If he's told anyone - most likely he's only told Tähtien, and that isn't serving them in any way constructive when Tähtien is in bed at near all times if only because it is difficult for the man to drop weight on his leg.
And then there's Sielu. Sielu is - complicated and he doesn't know how to describe the man with any other word than ravaged and not in the sense that Sielu is a ravage beast or anything of the like. No, no. In the sense that Sielu was ravaged. He is the causality left after a war and somehow he managed to drag his body out of the soil field even if all that remains of him was ravaged by the monsters that lurked there. Sielu is a mess. He is the man he always was but just ravaged. He doesn't want to say he's damaged because it makes it sound like he was broken or put in a form of disrepair. It makes it sound so ... wrong in his mind. Saying anything akin to Sielu is damaged makes it sound like he is unlovable for some reason and that is far from the case. Even so, in his ravaged state he has become the beasts that tortured him. A man that was never mean for war but yet his body became a battlefield all the same. His mind turned time bomb and no one knows when the next strike will go off because of all his fellow binds, Sielu is the only book with no lines in the story to read. No words to weave his tale and a deep part of his soul wishes to know what happened to his precious friend but at the same time the twisting in his stomach tells him it's better not to push for such information. Sielu is as delicate as he is jagged and by that he has become to the same glass that could shatter in an instant but yet just as quick to use those shattered edges to cut any who would dare get to close. Sydän is gone now and with her went what was left of Sielu's will to live. Two souls born of the same Mist and yet with one disappears the other's will goes right along with it. He cannot speak to him about it or about her.
Revon got asked about his co-binds (the rest of the Stars) and he dropped a shit ton of plot of what happened before they found safety and how they survived Wonderland.

I wrote 4000 words today, celebrated, and then got sad because I have so many more words to go.
They’re in me! I know what the words are! I just don’t have the energy to sit and write for hours. So they’re just sitting in my head while I do annoying things, like keeping myself alive. #writingsky
🔥 MY MOOTS, GIVE ME YOUR OPINION ON AN IDEA I HAD AND MY LIFE IS YOURS 🔥 #moots #ocsky #originalcharacter #writingsky #fantasy
I was thinking of the Crown of Conquest's flaming steel armor being mostly melted and fused into the skin like some freaky visual of the ring's effect on the body. Good?

my 2nd WIP has been stalled at 238 words for months and i’m losing inspiration 😭 to scrap or not to scrap… #writingsky
You really gotta check your spam folder with a keen eye and with discernment.
Because the way I was about to empty out my spam folder this morning... that included a legit bookstore signing opportunity, plus paperwork for other book events. Yikes!
