P E R S O N A L I T Y ┆
Clever ;; Since his youth, Eion has been remarkable at pattern recognition. Leaps of logic were likewise no struggle to the boy, though his aptitude had more to do with psychology than with math class. Cleverness gives him an edge in defusing contentious situations, or when he wants something that someone wouldn't give to him by asking. Usually he uses that cleverness to the benefit of his friends and comrades, which keeps him out of trouble.
Appreciative ;; Eion's recent spartan lifestyle taught him gratitude for the thoughts and gestures of others. Hearing a voice that isn't his own is already enough to raise goosebumps; spending time with someone or receiving a gift are utter treasures by comparison. People aren't faces in a crowd anymore — and those who stick around receive the fruits of his appreciation via loyalty, favors, friendship, or more.
Expressive ;; Eion feels, and feels strongly. Each emotion is crisp, sharp, vociferous. These feelings surface in his taciturn speech, in the way he speaks his sentences with his body, in how he wears his emotions plainly. For years, he had none but his own company, and it divested him of his habitual duplicitousness concerning how he felt. Eion is thus exactly as he seems — which is a balm to anyone who is tired of deception.
Spicy ;; His tongue gets him in trouble constantly. His cleverness does not always tell him when to keep his mouth shut, and his secret sassiness is out. Eion might have a few choice words about the way someone behaves, or how a situation turned out, or how leadership at a store is particularly terrible, and he'll say it to the exact person it'll damage most.
Volatile ;; His temper is as hot as his core and his mood shifts with little provocation. Any chance of temperance has long left him; Eion's emotions turn with his reaction to anything life throws at him. He could cycle through sorrow, anger, exuberance, lassitude, and anxiety in the span of five minutes with each at their extremes.
Destructive ;; Fire's still hot. When his temper is triggered, Eion expresses it explosively. He'll curse, he'll yell, he'll lash out violently. He'll turn his ire on friend or foe. His temper flares have resulted in dissolution of friendships and dusting of youma. And while he does feel remorse and apologize for these flares later, he still thinks nothing of doing damage when swept up in the heat of the moment. These violent moods are often triggered by things like failure, being ignored, not getting enough attention -- normal teenage things.
H O B B I E S ┆
Tea ;; Tea is a ritual as much as it is a drink. The steps are simple — fill kettle, turn on stove, boil water, pour boiling water into pot, add tea — but the experiential component of each step crafts the experience. Eion has a preference for black and blue teas (which are really just black teas, though he does not like to admit this), but still has red, white, and green teas in his collection. Loose leaf preferred, but silk sachets are acceptable. Tea is oft used to cushion conversations, news, and other interpersonal events. As a bonus, he learned how to make tea using his unique physiology.
Scandal Water ;; With tea comes Tea. He needs the gossip. He lives off the gossip. Rumors keep his fire burning. Mention something about someone else and watch his eyes light up as he leans forward. These illicit snippets of opinions about others or goings-on might just be hot air, but he craves them nonetheless, and becoming a gossip repository has been this boy's unintentional life goal for years now.
Food ;; Everyone needs to eat, but Eion somehow turned this life staple into a lifestyle. He's a bottomless pit and he's always interested in going on food adventures. Sometimes that means takeout from that new Peruvian place, or finding a new recipe online, or finding out what disasters come out of whatever few ingredients are left in the cupboard. He's weak for food bribes. He hopes any gift given to him is food. If it's not, it should've been food (but tea is okay).

┈┈┈━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┈┈┈ I've got this funny feeling that I just can't shake xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx The devil in the wires, the data eating up my brain
R E L A T I O N S H I P S┆ Only people of significance to Eion / Faustite are listed here. This post is not exhaustive of all people met. All comments are written ICly.
C I V I L I A N S ┆
Emilia Asher ;; Plainclothes side of Jadarite. Calm, collected, bold, targeted. Wish I could be more like her. Adam Bal ;; Emmy picked him out. Smirks a lot. Works as a bank manager, director, whatever. Trey Cameron ;; Wealthy, manicured brother to the man that Aelius used to be. Plays host well, pleasant, maddeningly cute. Might resent me now. Lionel Maisuria ;; Youmafied officer and loyal companion. He went all-in for me. Stroud Marinus ;; Missing. Hopefully eaten by Rift whales. Yuuri Matsunaga ;; Best friend and loyal ally. Afraid I'm always going to hurt him. Anastasia Risk ;; Former sister. Hot-tempered, like me. Gone now. Waruhiu Araullo Ushindi ;; Loyal boy. Was the kindling for the team. Far better at interpersonal nonsense than I am. Ren Wilhelm ;; A self-confident boy with more money than can be minted. Ever busy, but he finds time to spend with me. Saved my life once. Yuri Wingates-St. Grey III ;; Met him before he opened his new cat cafe. Like that he smiles so much. Haru Yukimura ;; New to the Negaverse. Remembers the same parts of his life that Heliodor did. Worries me; hope he doesn't suffer the same. Too sweet for that. Hina Yukimura ;; Sister to Haru. Dependable, smart, nonjudgmental. Someone I could talk to, if I chose to speak. Aelius Drayson ;; Newly returned, not dead. Surprised that he came back to me. He's matured some, settled into himself. Sweet, attentive boy.
C H A O S ┆
Albite ;; Grew on me like a mold. Married him after a mess put us both in jeopardy. Been nothing but loyal since. Aquamarine ;; Jet's partner. Been on a few missions with him. Sour thing; think he'd like to punch me in the face. Alkmene ;; Gave him a pendant for his troubles. Smart and socially adept, if hot-tempered. We've more in common than I expected, and we're closer for it. Aue ;; A dependable boy who transferred to Schörl's team. Was once under the same youma General as Kamacite. Had a head for engineering, though I know not what happened to him. Benitoite ;; Gave him a second chance in another mission. Lukewarm performance. Borax ;; Jadarite's subordinate. Has his uses. Seems more Information-leaning than Infiltration-leaning at the moment. Celadonite ;; Introduced him to the Negaverse. Made it to General, somehow fashioned himself into a youmafied officer to keep me company. Sweet boy; I would keep this one forever. Cymophane ;; Kamacite's roommate. Useful, follows instructions, helped Jet catch Ganymede. Fafnir ;; Capable Super from Infiltration. Went to him numerous times for new identity implementations. Ever indulgent, if hard to read. Might've ruined things between him and his brother. Haymitch ;; Albite's cat. Dumb as he is, but well-meaning. More an annoyance than an asset, however. Jadarite ;; Undeniably good head for command. Can keep her temper, reign in impulse, and command the steady respect of my team. One day, she'll take my place. Jet ;; A Sovereign now. Fashioned and gave me a bracelet to reign in my impulses. Still as helpful as he's always been. Kamacite ;; Shy, wan boy. Like he's starving to death in front of a feast. Unduly dedicated. Better teammate than I could ask for. Lilith ;; Second one that asked to join my team. Been helpful ever since. Mizuki ;; Shared subordinate between Prehnite and myself. Bloodthirsty and dedicated -- good pick for SpecOps. Her devotion is invaluable. Schörl ;; Gaoler. Poltergeist. Taenite ;; Something to do after a long day of work. He.s cute, and he's nice to me. Gave me a ring. Helped me open up. Tama ;; Stole him from a Knight. The Queen charged me with his care, but we're ever at odds. Best that he doesn't steal my boys. Valjean ;; Broke my ******** collarbone, but I made out the victor. Another boy for the team.
O R D E R ┆
Asphodel ;; A menace to youma and a peddler of old tales. Once Uranophane, now this. Cybele ;; Eternal once more, by machinations I can't explain. Burned her feet to the bone and kept her captive for her memories, but someone sprung her -- found the manacle left behind. Encke ;; Met you too many times. Die already. Ganymede ;; Ratty, bloody, mangy thing. Sprung out of the Dark Kingdom by Sylvite, who is now Nectaris. Better that we kill her on sight. Ida ;; Eternal turned Princess before my eyes. Paid her back in spades for it -- and for dusting my cat youma. Ilse ;; Cast your petal magic all you want. Won't be any flowers at your funeral. Kerberos ;; Former Negaverse senshi, who knew Schörl and Chrysocolla. Dumber than I expected him to be; someday, he'll let slip something valuable, given enough patience and rope. Lysithea ;; Left when I needed her. Just like the others. Malus ;; Delicate Malus. I have plans for him. Mont St. Michel ;; She doesn't care for him like she does for me. He'd make a better youma than a Knight. Nembus ;; Teammate ratted her out. Can't say it's a shame; she never proved herself indispensable. Puck ;; ******** worthless lawn and leaf bag shitheap of a senshi. Burn him to ash and piss on it. Roka ;;Fish person. Fish. Person. Sessrumnir ;; Two-timing b*****d. Tanais ;; Can't pitch a sale, better to pitch a spear. Only survived because of Almadel. Sorry excuse for a SpecOps General to need backup, but I'd rather her dead than my reputation intact.

On fire ;; Range: Self Duration: Constant Use Count: N/A Miss Chance: Effect: There's a fire in the center of this boy. It's caged, but it gives off light and heat and generally confers attributes that one would expect from fire. He does not like being used as a stove. In combat, Faustite is easy to spot via his internal light source. His temperature risks burns to the degree of player's choice. If the player has no preference, assume third degree with prolonged physical contact or second degree with normal combat contact. He can intentionally light flammable things and be used for the same properties of normal fire (eg this property can be used against him). If the fire is completely extinguished, he dies. He needs to eat and do other tasks to fuel the flame. The general rule is: the more he heats, the more he eats.
Meltdown ;; Range: 1o' radius around user Duration: Up to 3o seconds Use Count: Up to 2x Miss Chance: Escaping range at or before the buildup stage Effect: By expending some of his core, Faustite can whip up a firestorm on a local area, prefaced by dancing cinders seconds before the burst. Inferno gusts orbit clockwise, burning anyone caught in their whorl. Friendly fire possible.
Conflagration ;;(Forgotten Spell) Range: Point blank Duration: Instantaneous Use Count: Up to 3x Effect: Lava veins glow from Faustite's affected fist and climb up his arm, growing fainter the farther up they go. Faustite's fist looks superheated to a bright orange. Once he punches something, the punch gains extra force and sears the target at the affected location (any lingering burns are up to the player). When the punch connects with something, a small fiery burst can be seen, indicating that the magic went off. Afterward, Faustite's hand and arm look their normal coal black color.
Hellborn ;; (Enhancement) Range: Self Duration: Up to 1 minute Use Count: Up to 3x Miss Chance: Escaping his reach Effect: Faustite's fire expands and engulfs him, transforming him into a living embodiment of flame. For the duration of this magical ability, he appears fully youmafied. When he moves, he moves amorphously as a gout of fire. Faustite can pass through or over nonsolid surfaces, and cannot be hit by physical attacks. He becomes highly susceptible to magical attacks and enchantments, however. Any attacks he makes toward others will be fire property, and will provide the illusion of being burned.
Smoke signals ;; (Passive Enhancement) Range: Self Duration: N/A Use Count: N/A Miss Chance: N/A Effect: Faustite can manipulate his own smoke into various shapes. This is not a combat ability; it has purely cosmetic purposes.
Blackfire Brand ;; (Weapon Enchantment -- GK form only) Range: N/A Duration: 15 seconds Use Count: N/A Miss Chance: The weapon does not make contact with the target Effect: Targets cut by Faustite's shotel will manifest a scathing brand on their body (in a location that's up to the player). The brand will burn the target heavily if the target attempts to use any magic. This burn is akin to having their starseed grabbed or squeezed. The brand likewise affects their magic in a manner that is left up to the player -- it may block their casting altogether, it may tweak their magic to be more chaotic or uncontrollable, it may cause their magic to attack allies instead, etc.
Any branding and lasting damage is optional.

Perkele ;; Appearance ;; Looks like an orange/red firefly squid. It's about 4' long in total, the head being about a foot long and the tentacles roughly 3 feet, which it can use to loosely manipulate objects or lightly restrain someone. The tentacles have brighter lights at the end. It has no beak. Its eyes are black. Water frequently drips off of it. The youma locomotes as if in water, though this magical air-swimming is limited by common sense factors. Ability ;; The youma squirts a clear 'ink' substance up to 6 feet away that clings to the target. It does not penetrate clothing unless the fabric is thin or the person gets thoroughly soaked. If the substance reaches the skin, it produces a mild itching and chemical burning sensation (like getting a diluted bleach mixture on one's skin). Lasting damage is defender's choice. If the ink comes in contact with Faustite's Dispersion or Cinefaction attacks, the ink will combust. This fire burns itself out after 20 seconds unless more ink is applied. Once started, only magic may ameliorate its effects. The youma can squirt ink twice per battle.RIP Squiddy 05.17.21
Headache ;; Appearance ;; A group of red fireflies. These fireflies act as one unit, like a hive mind. They don’t stray far from each other and usually act as a cloud. Dusting roughly half of the fireflies will send the youma back to the Rift. Hallucination ;; This youma cannot attack so much as it defends itself with illusion. Using its myriad lights, the youma can produce a near perfect image of something it sees with some limited motion effects. For example, they can make an attack appear larger than it is, or take on the image of someone and imitate their movements, or mimic the appearance of a known youma. They may also improvise some visual aspects. While they do not speak, having no mouths, they communicate with their General via morse code. Auditory Hallucination ;; Since Faustite became a sovereign, Headache gained the ability to imitate speech. It has no voice of its own, but can speak in the voices of others, provided it has listened enough to learn a number of sounds in that voice. How much speech it can imitate is up to the player whose character it is imitating; for Faustite, however, Headache can imitate the full range of sounds.

S U B O R D I N A T E S ┆ Faustite usually gains subordinates because they foist themselves upon him. He hates this, but it's getting easier for him to begrudgingly accept them.
Lieutenants ;; Any given lieutenant or basic senshi can expect to be largely ignored by Faustite. He only notices them when he has to, or when they do something of peculiar renown that attracts his eye. Most who get noticed do so for the wrong reasons -- they've done something to piss him off or upset him, and are thusly judged for it.
It's not that he hates lieutenants, it's just that they're too human for him. He doesn't understand how to work with that.
Captains ;; Captains are more in the realm of his influence as a General, and Faustite is more liable to take notice of them. He tries to give Captains and Supers the benefit of the doubt, but he still troubles to connect with them. He wants to mentor them, but he knows he has no business doing so. That complicates matters, and he knows it, so he tries not to have subordinates.
Faustite has a soft spot for the middle rank due to his own experiences. Where a flame can warm, it can also burn; Faustite's notice is not always a boon.
Peers ;; Generals and Eternals typically put Faustite in a good mood. There's no rank separation to complicate interactions, and they're a little more relatable to him than the average human. They've been in the Negaverse long enough that they're not so consumed by their civilian lives. And, he can go to them for advice without feeling inferior.
Still, he tries to keep to himself. Few in the Negaverse are trustworthy.

S U B S P A C E┆A collection of the miscellany that Faustite keeps close at hand. Also includes a starseed, a variety of snacks, and a pocket watch.

Thoughtwalker ;; Description ;; A shield glove bracelet that fits against the palm of the hand rather than the top of the hand. It's set with purple crystals that serve as capacitors for the magic's power. Benefit ;; When Faustite touches someone's head or chest with the glove, ey may witness their memories. If touching the chest, ey may access powered memories (if available). If touching the head, ey may access civilian memories. Faustite can access past life memories if the character has experienced that specific memory. Ey can recover sideswapped memories that the character retained or is allowed to retain through a sideswap. Memories lost to sideswaps are unrecoverable.
Memories can only be recovered by Faustite via player consent; memories cannot reveal any character identities unless specifically asked for by the owner of the affected character. This means ey cannot access powered memories from a civilian character (assuming they have a powered side) unless there is OOC consent for Faustite to recover these memories. The same applies vice versa.
Faustite can recover one memory per RP per day. More than one memory per day requires plot approval via the mule.
Ink from an Old Friend ;; Description ;; Magical ink that has been mixed with black and white pigments and tattooed over half of Faustite's body. Benefit ;; For the duration of his glamour, Eion will be perceived by youma as if he were powered up. The item's magic charges when he is Faustite.
Kindled Crown ;; Description ;; A cobbled-together collection of shrapnel and metal shavings in the shape of a circular crown. Pieces of it are everburning. Benefit ;; Faustite can put the crown on a youma of his choice, and infuse that youma with his consciousness/will. He can act through that youma as long as it wears the crown. While the crown is in use, Faustite will appear inert and nonresponsive, as if he stared off very deeply into space. Attempts to rouse him will not work until the youma comes back to him. Because the crown requires so much concentration for him to use, Faustite cannot use it during combat.
If the controlled youma is dusted or the crown gets knocked off the youma, the result is very jarring – Faustite wakes with a start, as if someone just put his starseed back in his chest after like a week. He has to go fetch his crown, which sucks, but he has an innate sense for where it is.
*Player-owned youma (PC and personal youma) cannot be controlled without OOC permission. Greater youma cannot be controlled.
Charcoal Stick ;; Description ;; An ornate, timeless charcoal holder with winding onyx patterns on the handle. It holds a stick of charcoal that seems to last forever, and smolders when used. Benefit ;; The charcoal stick allows the user to send one-way messages to any other user, regardless of faction, as long as the name of the recipient is known. When used, the user can scrawl a message on any surface, and that message will appear in smoldering letters, as they are written, somewhere in the periphery of the person receiving the message. Messages can only be sent to powered individuals, and the individual must be powered to receive the message. If they are not, then the message will appear to them the next time they power up.
P E R M A N E N T x I T E M S┆
Article of Strength ;; Description ;; An ancient piece of jewelry. One of Faustite's many pendants with a brilliant, flame-wreathed interior. Benefit ;; The Article of Strength will take the form of any wearable piece of jewelry the player likes, either a ring, bracelet, necklace or earrings (or other approved jewelry, with staff approval). When worn, this item will grant +1 to all IC Dice Rolls in any staff run roleplay hosted by The Space Cauldron. This may not carry over to player run events and is at the discretion and decision of the player host. The item is non-transferable and can only be worn by the player who claims it. It can be worn and used as a civilian, or when powered up.
Rugose Pendant ;; Description ;; A blackened, wrinkled rock set into a silver pendant with an indigo glow trapped inside. Benefit ;; It can be found discarded in Negaspace or the Rift. To use the item, an agent or Negaverse senshi must energy drain the rock. Once drained, the rock will crack and disintegrate. The rock's violet light will then envelop the user, cloaking them in the appearance of a youma. A youma aura will overwhelm the user's natural aura, though it will not disguise their aura. Their youma appearance must adhere to youma guidelines for personal or player youma. The user does not gain any special abilities while under the effects of the item, and their current abilities are not typically hampered by the item. The Rugose Pendant's effects last until the character powers down or until 3 hours have passed, whichever is sooner. The Pendant may be used once a day.
Almadel's Cincher ;; Description ;; A corset-like piece of material with bone fittings on the front. It appears leathery, though one cannot discern the origin of the material. Benefit ;; Wearing the corset deactivates Faustite's "On Fire" passive, leaving him touchable, if feverish.
T E M P O R A R Y x I T E M S┆
Cracked Bone ;; Description ;; A small piece of bone from some creature you think isn’t human. The bone looks like a miniature human femur and is roughly the size of a finger. It is faded yellow and has a crack down the middle. Benefit ;; It can be found discarded on Homeworlds, Wonders, Mirrorspace, and the Dark Kingdom. To use this item, you must snap the bone completely in two. The bone will immediately emit a faint purple, odorless gas, glow and then bind itself back together - whole. This gas, if inhaled, has the ability to heal any and all physical injuries, including life threatening ones. It can replace missing limbs, restore lost blood, mend bones, and regrow organs. The effects cannot be divided. Only one character must inhale the majority of the smoke to feel the full power. It is not a painless action but comes with a magical painkiller to alleviate some of the pain. Depending on the injuries, the magic can take upwards of five minutes to completely heal, but can work quicker depending on how extreme the injury is. Once the magic has faded, the bone may be kept as a memento.
Crystallized Wisp ;; Description ;; A palm-sized glass stone with a wisp that sometimes seems to dart about inside. Used here.
Rewind Charm ;; Description ;; A decorative, palm sized, circular charm with an engraved button in the center. This intricately carved charm seems to have been designed so that the user could fiddle with it; parts of it twist and shift though there doesn’t seem to be any particular purpose for this aside from entertainment. Benefit ;; When the Rewind Charm is pointed at an inanimate object and the button pressed, it has the can ‘rewind’ the object back to a previous state in time. It cannot break an item down into components but it can restore it from significant damage. It cannot fix large building structures, however it can repair large objects, such as statues. This can be used on an item on Earth or on Homeworlds. It can be used in Mirrorspace and Negaspace as well, however you may need staff permission to determine what can be restored in Chaos oriented locations. This item can be used once before the magic is expired, at which point in time it can be kept as a neat memento! This item can be used freely in one on one roleplays but please speak to the host of any shop or player run event to confirm that you can use this item during their event!

P A S T ┆ Velvet W O N D E R ┆ Eion (Ἠϊών) of Pluto
┈┈┈━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┈┈┈ No more egoxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Nothing to control us
A P P E A R A N C E ┆ A slender adult with coal black eyes and long, dreaded black hair. His toned body knows an alabaster paleness from years spent inside establishments across the universe. He has a discolored scar near his left jugular from an incident as a child.
Velvet ;; Hails from Warhol. Velvet is quiet and inquisitive, though bright and highly emotional. The many years spent in pursuit of missing souls left him keen to sorrow and heartache and pride, though he often loses sight of the meaning behind present day. He finds people both terrible and wondrous, and far too capable of pulling his heart strings. He is not altogether innocent, however.
Ἠϊών ;; Eion is an exceedingly small wonder, perhaps forty feet in diameter, with impeccably complex clockwork workings under its glass floor. A tree stands at its center, the only object with access to the great gears below, and its branches twine into machined invention. Lengthy wefts of hair wrap between branches in a pattern both complex and deliberate. All hair is coal black as a stark contrast to the golden leaves and occasional rustic orange fruits. Up above the tree is a glass dome marked by great golden arches, fitted with pistons and struts and ever-winding gears. At the top, a retractable window allows fresh air and unmitigated sun to dapple onto vibrant green leaves.
The wonder travels across Pluto, never stopping for more than a month at a time. If a new length of hair is woven into Eion's tree, and the wonder reached the proper point in Pluto's temporal landscape, then fleeting visions of that person's past wash over glass walls. The clockwork floor speeds into a great rhythm as the whole wonder hums with power. And once that hair is used up, whatever color it was before, it now turns black with its power and memory expended.
The wonder serves one purpose — to track the lives of those lost or gone. Even in the SilMil era, people disappear. They vanish for their own good, for others' good, or for no good reason. Eion is tasked with chasing these people through time until the knight knows enough to begin a search in the present. Visiting other portions of Pluto is paramount in this search — the planet's temporal variation is key to tuning the timeframe of the tree's memory read. Afterward, Eion stops at a Pluto waystation to begin his search among the stars.
The establishment of a new knight to the wonder is a process both arduous and particular. Typically the knights used are refugees from foreign and distant planets, where the individual may otherwise have a poor chance of livelihood. A sense of empathy and actualizing of others is requisite to becoming a knight of Eion. The pick must be made by the prior knight, who begins socializing the wonder's next knight at the age of six, and all care given henceforth is in both a mentorship and a familial tone. Who they choose to be in their austere knight life is of no consequence to the wonder; it requires only that they adhere wholeheartedly in their task to find the lost.
Eion was known for its success and its blistering accuracy. Few lost at sea or lost to time, be they war losses or escaped convicts, have successfully eluded Eion's heedful eye.
┈┈┈━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┈┈┈
H I S T O R Y ┆ It is said that Eion is the last remnant of a massive, timeless mountain. But the magic of the place was drawn on by the surrounding people time and time again, to perpetuity, where wonder quickly turned to expectation. And when the last of the magic started to dry up, the mountain expelled its heart straight into the sky and birthed a new star.
Several shrewd engineers seized this point of magic when it began to coast into their planet's orbit. A piece of rock so laden with the supernatural was not to be passed up by ever-toiling, ever-ingenious engineers. And once their framework was built to keep that piece of mountain hoisted into the sky, once the rock was framed in gilded gold and carved into a clockwork, they left one of their best and most ornery engineers to oversee the final transformation. How would this peculiar piece of planet take ownership of their studious work? And as that first knight began her journey across the many planets, that answer was realized in short order.
The first knight of Eion was a mother. And while her relations with her daughter were strained — her daughter commanded the distance of a Venusian Knight and the chill of two parties wronged — she still considered them. Trapped there in the glass globe of a new wonder, she was left to reflect on all her life's struggles that she diligently pushed aside for her work. She kept very little of her daughter's personal effects when she first agreed to this journey; only a doll fashioned together on her daughter's sixth year remained in her possession. On wistful days, she took it out from its rustic wooden chest and considered the memories locked away in beaded eyes.
Soon the great gears beneath the glass twitched and a vision reached her when over the vast darkness of Pluto. The first knight tore the hair from that doll, thin and old and brittle as it was, and tied that weft to a tree bough. Soon the roots spread, glowing and vermeil, and fastidious clockwork sprung to life. Over glass walls played not the airy breadths of Pluto's protean landscape, but the memories of that time seen through her daughter's eyes.
The first Eion knight dedicated many years of her life to chasing down the fuller story in her daughter's memories. And when she reached the point where she could forgive her daughter and herself, when the years weathered away hurts enough that her daughter could open ears to her again, they mended a long-defunct relationship. And it was with her daughter's insight and ideas that the first Eion knight chose to purse other losses — relationships, people, memories — and begin the long tradition of chasing them through time.
