Merchants of Ofir

Chest 1: The first expedition from Ofir was led by Dulla kh'Amanni, or rather the first one that was well documented by historians. There is evidence, however, in the form of Ofiri weapons and decoctions, that suggests a much earlier expedition took place from the land beyond the sea to the Continent. Besides, Dulla's journey would not be as well-known if it weren't for one detail - knowledge and trade were only a cover for the Ofiri's real goal. He was sent by the powerful king Nibras to find the monarch's son who disappeared during his travels to the Northern Kingdoms. Unfortunately, Dulla was not successful. The king was informed of his son's death and Dulla was stuck at the Upper Mill, awaiting further orders. Tired of the rural surroundings, he longed to return to his country.

Chest 2: According to legend, the Crow Mother is the oldest and most powerful of the living flaminicas. She leads a mysterious druid clan in the Gedyneith grove. No one knows, including the druids she leads, whether she is merely a human that can speak crow or the spirit of a crow enchanted into a human body. Or maybe she was a powerful crow deity once, ousted by Freya and eventually forgotten? The theories differ. But there's no doubt that the Crow Mother's followers are not afraid to peer into the darkness or reach for the most potent Ofiri decoctions, as opposed to the more restrained and, according to them, more cowardly druids from other circles.

Chest 3: The Van Moorlehem family is known for their atypical need for slave labor. Apparently, without it, they would not be able to maintain their prestige or their extravagant lifestyle. It's said in the North that a Nilfgaardian aristocrat will not move a finger until a slave does it for him. On the surface, the Van Moorlehems fit in perfectly. Only on the surface, though, because it's hard to find a servant at their palace. It could be said that after the showy parties, regularly and gladly organized by Ophelie Van Moorlehem - Vincent's wife, the ruler of his heart and co-owner of their fortune - their residence stands practically empty. If, however, a slave happens to somehow wander around the palace grounds, the heir to the dynasty, Philippe Van Moorlehem, takes them for a trip to the woods from where they never come back. Hence the family's high demand for "fresh blood"... They'd also like to try the slaves from Ofir, as long as they bleed as readily as the others.

Scroll 1: The only things a typical Nordling knows about Ofir is what he hears in rumors, so a lot of nonsense and not a whole lot of truth. But most rumor-mongers agree on several points…

Scroll 2: First of all, Ofir's located somewhere at the end of the world, far beyond the seas. Second of all, there are no normal animals there. The horses are either white with black stripes or mean and hunchbacked, while cattle have tails growing out of their faces instead of their rears.

Scroll 3: It's surprising, then, that the Ofiri merchants look like normal human beings - they have one head each, as many limbs as they should and behinds in the right places. Still, they haggle like fiends and create wonders like no Nordling can.

Scroll 4: In the eyes of the Ofiri, the inhabitants of the Northern Kingdoms are simple barbarians. Even the famously progressive Nilfgaardians seem like a largely backward nation to them. Unfortunately, ambushes by the Scoia'tael and the numerous hardships encountered by merchants on their journeys across the Continent only reinforce that viewpoint.

When Esther is laying out her plans to Mick re: revenge plan B in episode 7, she calls Charles “the smiley one”. I’m pretty sure Charles is never smiley when he interacts with her. I’m imagining that this is what Monty calls him and she just uses his nickname.

Hello fellow mother miranda lover!

First of, do you want nsfw stuff in asks or no?

Second, my personal hc is that she has a bunch of birdlike behaviors even when in human form, maybe you could write sth about that :)

for now, no I don’t write nsfw. let me practice writing 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝓪𝓴𝔂 stuff, stay tuned! (also apologies for the late reply)

birdlike behaviours

• First and foremost, she would absolutely adore shiny things. From old keys to beads to jewelry, she’d be absolutely entranced by it all. Have you seen her nail rings and halo? (She’d definitely have an ever growing collection)

• Crows have a little strut and sass as they walk, and at the end of resident evil 8 (where Ethan is talking to her) she is strutting around so yeah. She walks like a bird

• NESTING! She would take a bunch of her clothes (and her S/O’s?) and would make a cozy and snug nest in bed. And lie face down.

• 100% of her brain power is devoted to bringing Eva back so when she’s not doing that she is scatterbrained (or birdbrained hehe) and has a really stupid expression on her face

• Miranda isn’t an expressionate person but her wings unquestionably give her away. Flapping of wings, puffing up her chest, standing straighter? She’s definitely trying to intimidate. Fluffing of her wings with a little smile? It’s either someone’s death or she’s happy!

might reblog with more ideas idk
