Whatever strange magic wraps Librette is the same magic that pushes Covet along, plucky and ageless. Until lately, anyways.
That same magic made Covet a tiresome, evil beast. But that's gone, and all... |

Thorunn is more like her father - reserved. She watches her sister with careful consideration, noting the ways they are similar and the ways they are different. Natyl doesn't hesitate to speak, wherea... |

Thorunn can almost sense her sister before she appears, if that makes any sense. It's that strange twin bond people are always talking about, and with Thorunn and Val it's particularly tight. See, whi... |

Covet is not so omniscient as he was when he ruled the Dale. Those days - blissful, distant days - were of a much different Covet. Thankfully, really. Covet of the old was a rude, distant bastard t... |
