That I had... she's also a reverent figure to my people. It's a common decoration to dye black a skull of a deer or elk, decorate it in white carnation and golden twine and stars. An Adelheid's ward, like the one I keep above the door out front.
[it's rather soured, now, that gesture he made to remember her. His fondness, what he always thought was some part of Sherwood still in him, drawing him to her visage and making him fascinated with her as more than just any figure of lore... It felt disingenuous now. Like he'd been tricked him believing there was some special connection he had to her, when there was only betrayal]
Her legacy was of self sacrifice, as she was who slayed Enki, ended her reign over the Unquestioned. I did not realize Sherwood's part... and that he could have saved her, but did instead refuse.
