❀ : "anyone want to be sent reluctantly on a quest and feel ever - so uneasy and off - put by the fact they've now secured a witch of unnamed background and origin watching over their every move ?" i ask the crowd as they begin to leave their seats . ( they know what she's plotting already )
⠀⠀similar silence swathes the witch as dreary eyes roam the sights. such colors、so unfamiliar、inviting、foreign. she rests on a nearby rock、a tad higher up to accommodate for her smaller stature. “ might this be thine duty ? keeping watch o'er such plentiful plains ?”
⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ ⠀⠀❪ atop a cliffside perch in the plains , silently observing distant ruins towering from the neighboring forest —— wistful in all but their expression , eerily still save for the weightless sway of chainblades at their side . ❫ ⠀⠀
⠀⠀“ mm .. ah ?” a handful of blinks withdraw the woman from her silent studying. “ oh、yes .. forgive mine intrusion、it's simply .. your eyes— they look tired. ”
⠀⠀oh、if the poor boy could catch the glint behind the witch's eye as he muses of his capabilities. this man could serve he well、if cards played correctly. “ curious .. ” she begins、her voice raspy and hushed. “ might thou seek abilities to ... 𝘦𝘯𝘩𝘢𝘯𝘤𝘦 thine skillset、perchance ? ”
⠀ ⠀“...I've been fighting since I was little. I'm good with all kinds of weapons, but the kind of weapon that I use most and use best is a one-handed sword. ⠀ The blade on my back, the Master Sword, is my weapon of choice. ⠀ Why ask?” ⠀
⠀⠀“ Jiaying. ” parroting the unfamiliar name、hands fold together. another set of arms extends from beneath the heavy fur coat— cloaking her lithe form、protruding to adjust the large hat nestled upon unkempt tresses. “ I am the witch Renna. you are not of this land、are you ? ”
ㅤㅤ ㅤㅤ“Yours is too.” ㅤㅤ•° the empress' gentle look doesn't change as she studied the puppet-like woman in a few feet away. ㅤㅤ•° a witch, but not the same kind as her. Though they share the same preference for nighttime, it seems. ㅤㅤ“This humble one is named Jiaying, of the Second Qing.” ㅤㅤ
⠀⠀“ Talon .. ” blue eyes trail over his lowering figure、following his formalities with a soft chuckle. a bit unbecoming of the princess、one could say. “ it would serve well to re - introduce myself. I am the witch、 Ranni. ” one hand raises to her breast as she dips her head to offer a nod.
⠀⠀❀ : my deepest apologies to those that write with little ol' me .. i'm much the same with ranni in the essence that i drift in and out of sleep quite frequently ( chronic illness ) .. your patience is deeply appreciated & many thanks for those who have taken time to write with me 🩷(*´∀`)♪
⠀⠀“ one could view this waiting as such、yes .. ” head slowly cants to the left、leaving a creaking in the wake of moving joints. it's not oft the snow witch found herself struggling to get a read on someone .. but this one、 she fascinated her. “ yours is a new face. ”
ㅤㅤ ㅤㅤ•° looking back at her, curiousity evident. ㅤㅤ“Are you waiting for something to happen.ᐣ” ㅤㅤ
⠀⠀“ thee、knight. ” a sole digit raises、extending to point at the hylian. “ of what expertise doth thine possess ? ”
⠀ ⠀“...waitin' for somethin'?” ⠀
the snow witch slows her taps、running porcelain fingers down the spine of her tome with a huff. not one for small talk .. though it seems 𝘴𝘰𝘮𝘦𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨 has been evidently eating at her. “ o' tarnished .. forgive mine imprudence .. but ... ” a soft sigh. “ i never hath asked for thy name. ”
// non april fools! i finished the improved ref for thjem. yippeeeee
⠀⠀staring intently at the * 𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐞𝐫 with narrowed eyes. fingers splay across a book、of which、impatient taps are directed.
⠀⠀whipping out a book with a terribly ornate and ludicrously realistic painting of the erdtree. “ a separate、albeit large、pillar ? ”
⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ ⠀⠀. . . . . . . . . . . you have my interest held ⠀⠀
⠀⠀“while i'm unsure what this “ dragontorch ” entails、i may have something similar to .. suffice thine hunger.” .. eerie smile.
⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ ⠀⠀the voices in my head want me to eat the Dragontorch ⠀⠀
⠀⠀it takes a few moments for the witch to fully wake、her lids heavy with sleep as her attention summons in the form of a perking head; curiosity. “ ahh .. attentive as always、 tarnished. offering to render aid even when mine eyes slumber. ” lips quirk into the ghost of a grateful grin.
⠀⠀“ 𝘮𝘩 .. ? ” as the princess's form is straightened、her terribly large hat tilts、as if to cancel out the weight redistribution. sapphire eye flutters open to flit around before landing upon the Tarnished— a deep blue dusting pale cheeks as realization dons.
⠀⠀the witch's tiny figure ever — slightly 𝒍𝒆𝒂𝒏𝒔 earthbound、sleep swathing her lithe form. nearly about to fall off her seat、 which she's so neatly perched on、too ...
⠀⠀“ thine fur ... ” a drowsy blink dashes wintry features、her other set of arms extending to compare touch 'pon her own furry coat. “ knotty .. yet still curly. you do not tend to it、do you ? ”
⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ ⠀⠀❪ . . . .ᐣ ❫ ❪ what the hell is she doin down there —— oh . ❫ . . . you appear contemplative . ⠀⠀
@guardianslament.bsky.social 。。。 she's been staring rather intently at the poor creature for a while now。 extending a tiny hand to cup a strand of matted fur。 ( 𝘴𝘯𝘪𝘧𝘧。) freak ?
