Totally not stuck thinking about what if Bucky becomes a Paladin of Ankarna. A young boy who leaves his abusive family, but doesn't have the doubt his sister did but rather clarity because Kristian already left and she found a family. Bucky has this proof that Kristian didn't; his bigger sister, his shield gave him the conviction to act.
Sol, the sun, cast his sister out and holds his younger brother to either suffer the same fate or to continue growing in abuse. Ankarna, however, gave him fury, in light, bright, and strong as the dawn to leave, to grab his brothers and run, to protect them from the wickedness of their home.
Bucky comes to live at Mordrid, getting to pray again with Kristian, but this time to the goddesses they choose rather than the god forced upon them. The two grow into adulthood next to each other. Coming to terms with their trauma, growing from a chaotic girl and an obedient boy. Becoming, for the first time, themselves.
By popular demand - MORDRED MANOR!
SPOILERS AHOY
There were 9 total backgrounds for this set! Any space with white in the windows is where you'd get a glimpse of the graveyard outside :) Starting off with the Graveyard, the Kitchen, and the Foyer
Next up we've got Lydia's room, Sandra Lynn and Jawbone's room, and the Staircase ♥
And finally Adaine, Fig, and Kristen's rooms!
Fun little thing here - I originally wanted to give Adaine a bunk bed, since Aelwyn lived there too. But when I learned she'd moved out I turned it into a desk and loft bed, and then the props department MADE the bed to match the art!
