So, there's this character who appears in the first installment of The Locked Tomb series by Tamsyn Muir. They're a highly skilled fighter who's been training with a sword for as long as they could pick one up. They grew up alongside a remarkably intelligent and talented necromancer, who is a little bit younger than them and bullies them a lot. They dream of building their own life that isn't shaped by their necromancer, who does everything they can to prevent this.
On arriving at Canaan House, they appear to be the perfect cavalier for their House, a purposefully constructed image concealing that things aren't exactly as they appear. They believe themselves to be the main character of the story, but outside observation reveals that this is mostly just the hollow posturing of someone who's never really been in control of their lives, and mostly just succeeds in making them look obnoxious.
After dying and paving the way for their necromancer to ascend to lyctorhood, they continue to haunt the second instalment. Their necromancer performs some extreme form of surgery with the help of their only other peer, and this is supposed to have an effect on their fallen cavalier, but it doesn't entirely work.
Finally, they come back in the third instalment... or, more accurately, their body does, under a different name to the one they were introduced under in book one, but not that different. Even in death, their body is not allowed to simply rest and be spared from necromantic fuckery.
Now, was I talking about Gideon Nav in this post, or Naberius Tern?

couple days late but could I request Canaan house era (or before!) ianthe and coronabeth teasing/being mean to babs OR if that's not your vibe rn Palamedes watching Camilla fight. dealers choice the context. I just love how they're described when Camilla fights, like two parts of one organism experiencing pride at it's own skill. and the two suns of the third house and the smaller stellar body trapped precariously in their orbit is something I adore

tlt tumblr: here’s a 52-page treatise on how john’s vision of his empire references the first and second crusades, cross-analyzed with the modern trend of liberal apathy and a layered examination of the complexities of a man from a colonized people becoming a colonizer. almost didn’t post it here because it feels too obvious haha
tlt reddit: can someone remind me who ‘cam’ is?
