[quote=@HylianRose] Highly recommend checking out the Zeroth post on the IC tab to make sure I'm not royally (pun not intended, but I did chuckle) screwing up your character's background in some way. That stuff is still subject to change and just my attempts at giving the world some background noise. [/quote] Oh, Rose, I couldn't find anything much in the IC Tab, nor a zeroth post (the top post without the poster's avatar at the side). This is how it looks on my end: [url=https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/874364687599403028/1207365556924063794/IMG_3931.png?ex=65df61cc&is=65cceccc&hm=b8d23dd7004d68542f7751ffcffb59de5d4ebed8a0b20e75cb2690f9480c8248&]Screenshot[/url] [quote=@The Savant] Millie just harboring a journal that can make the whole world burn. I think in the sense of just her trying to figure out why they stopped bringing Alpheus around. She would figure out Pran curses his son for being cursed and sees him as an abomination. A weak link. She would find out that they stopped bringing him to everyone and they isolated him at the Hoel estate in France to the point where they became so superstitious that Alpheus was isolated from his siblings and parents for the majority of the time. Alpheus only has a singular maid who is to be around him, and he gets pushed into the background. He was treated EXTREMELY differently from how his siblings were treated. Alpheus's genetic issues being a reason Millie has a core motivation to change things is kind of hilarious. Other than that, Millie would probably be shocked to see Alpheus in school. He might or might not say something but he was getting close to his younger siblings because he has become such a rebellious and mischievous child. Pran sent him countries away to this private school so Alpheus couldn't have a relationship with his younger siblings because they were worried that his being around their youngest, Elsie, might cause her to have his issues to. She is around the same age when Alpheus was diagnosed. [/quote] Oh, that meant she got Pran to prattle on and on about Alpheus with a few not-so-mundane stares. Damn, man must have been [i]seething[/i] inside and his subconscious looked for any chance to air out all that bad laundry just for some morbid satisfaction. It's like lighting a small spark to a pool of gasoline, such a teeny tiny thing triggering something big. Ironic, considering he wanted to forget Alfi even existed. Hilarious, yet sensible haha. She's autocratic but also meritocratic, if someone can prove themselves to qualify for a role, then they should be given that role, and what Pran was doing is robbing Alpheus of even the chance to do that, between that and all the other cases of decadent nobles maintaining the rotten status quo (including keeping her brother as the primary heir even though she's more qualified than him), something snapped in her and she went full Thanos "Fine, I'll do it myself." She'd be quite shocked yes as she'd fully expect his parents to keep him in house arrest until he dies (or made to "disappear").
