"Then I leave you in @thyheracles.bsky.social's capable hands," she took a step back as Keeana entered, then made a hasty departure to her own room, with one hand pressed against the side of her head while she walked, a futile attempt to calm the thunder crashing about within her head. Her door

and let out a tiny curse before more raindrops dropped onto her head. "A pity, indeed," she retorted dryly, her bare feet slapping audibly against the ground. "However, the rain does give us life... even if it soaks us in the process." She wrapped her arms around herself, fearing the deluge that

The ragamuffin can't help but notice all the glances as they move into what she assumes is the more wealthy district of town. The glances, the whispers, moving aside without being told to, the greetings from the armored guards. This was certainly not some random woman. Sybella felt more rain fall

Sybella glanced up at Knox when his name was mentioned, then looked to Keeana when she made her offer. "We accept your offer, with one caveat; I have not slept, in what I fear is too many hours. My head aches for rest. Perhaps on the morrow we can reconvene and discuss things in a more proper

I find it peculiar that I am attracted to some men, but very specifically, not some men that would be ideal for me.

"Has it been so long? And yes, you may meet them. Him, at least." Bell chuckled to herself. "He's not easy to miss when you do see him."

Sybella Iosis @sybella.sunder.my · 26/03/2026

Sybella was happy to answer Inrin's base questions, and did so with a small smile. "Knox is my protector, and we've been attached more-or-less at the hip for almost three years now..." She trailed off at the realization. Had it really been three years? Her orange eyes drifted to the ground.

By the time 'ready' had left her lips, Sybella was already up and quite ready to depart, not keen at all to be caught out in the cold. "I would rather not be drenched. Is your manor far from here?" And what manner of guardship did she have? Did Sybella just run into one of the most major players in

"And by what manner are you considering repaying us?" she questioned, remaining still and noticing, yet again, the abrupt influence Keeana seemed to have on Knox.

Sybella Iosis @sybella.sunder.my · 20/03/2026

Would that she could read the other's mind. Her intuition tells her much, but not everything. She scoffed lightly at the question of how she met the knights. "One of them is my dear friend, Knox. He's... he's quite large. Another is a Knight we met by happenstance, Aronion, and the third I only

"Sorry to interrupt you," her eyes darted to the nearby boots. "I simply overheard you talking of knights. I know several, two of which should be nearby if you wanted to meet them. I have heard of one more, although her reputation is..." she trailed off, uncertain how to phrase Verone's complicated

"Empress, they once called me. Ruler. Seer. How far I've fallen. A desolate land with no survivors. How I would trade myself for a young family with children. Surely someone else should have survived in my stead..."

"I am but a humble courier." Sybella bowed low, sweeping one hand behind her back. "Call me Bella."

Sybella Iosis @sybella.sunder.my · 18/03/2026

"I've met many." Sybella grinned wryly while she thought of them, and her brief adventures with one of them. "Would you like to meet one? I believe such a meeting could be arranged."

Sybella Iosis @sybella.sunder.my · 17/03/2026

Would it truly matter? All who know the significance of it are dead, aside from Knox, perhaps.

The orange pigment did give her away rather easily. Perhaps some blue contact lenses?

Sybella Iosis @sybella.sunder.my · 17/03/2026

She wore a sleeveless shirt and a pair of plain brown shorts and had a pair of cheap shoes that audibly clacked whenever she moved. Orange eyes regarded Inrin curiously, framed by the curls of her ear-length silver hair. "A pity. A knight is a wild card. Some are noble... some are not."

Her usual day outfit did not have any sleeves. Would tearing them off her shift provide her with some other use for the length of material? She stared at her right sleeve while she pondered.

Sybella Iosis @sybella.sunder.my · 15/03/2026

Up late once again, writing an account of the last few weeks and trying not to notice the various inkstains that have decorated the sleeves of her shift. At times, she wonders if she even needs the sleeves, and as her quill slides into the inkwell, she once again wonders at the need for them.

sleeveless shirt and a pair of shorts, she certainly did not look like any kind of nobility that she'd met, certainly not around these parts. "What is it?" she asked, not unkindly, but with that same air of someone that expected a prompt answer.

It has been a while since someone addressed her in that manner that was not Knox. Still, she turned with her once-usual air of regality; back straight, perfect poise, chin slightly lifted and her orange eyes gazing down toward Keeana, until she realizes that is who uttered the title. With a

Sybella reached up and put her hand on his shoulder. "You are not at fault for not being prepared for a gigantic, horrible beast. You could not have prepared for that." And yet, from his words, she heard herself reflected. The guilt as the Empress and watching that nightmare destroy their entire

"What nonsense is this?" She glared up at him, even with him kneeling before her. "Weak and frail? Compared to what?" The former Empress couldn't keep the slight shrill tone from her voice. This day had dragged on and her lack of sleep from the night prior had already run her ragged, then all this

she couldn't quite grab his hand as easily, and gently tugged on it. "Ser Knox," she used her best Empress voice, "May that I wake you from your stupor? I have some choice words for thy ears only."

Bell followed him, the exhaustion from the start of their long day tugging at her eyes once more. He'd seen her this morning in an ink-stained shift, and it was only at his begging that she'd ventured out at all. Neither of them had expected all this. She reached out and grabbed his cloak, since

Orange eyes flicked from Aro and Kee to Knox, and she trailed after her bodyguard, recognizing one of his moments for what it was. As much as either may try to pretend otherwise, they were both trauma-ridden from seeing their kingdom burnt to ash, and sometimes, it manifested in strange ways.
