#swift dark cacao warrior

[sundove88]

Can ya give me some headcannons on each of the watchers?

In general:

They have a hankering for hot and piping foods!

They all see each other as a found family.

Whenever Dark Cacao falls sick, they often bring him blankets and stuff like that so he can feel better.

Caramel Arrow:

She has an entire pile of empty boba cups at the bottom of her watchtower.

She does 10 push ups, 10 sit ups, 10 pull ups, and an entire 5 mile run each day.

She was the one who suggested the idea of the boba machine for her and the watchers’ vacation home.

Crunchy Chip:

His accompanying Cream Wolf has the name of Snowball!

When he was just a baby, he was raised by Cream Wolves- yes, actual Cream Wolves.

He has a plush of a rice cake hound that he carries everywhere for good luck.

Second Watcher/Choco Chunk:

He’s Caramel Arrow’s dad. Enough said.

He taught her how to wield a bow and arrow when she was just a little girl.

He’s got that dad bod from eating so much comfort food over the years!

Bittersweet Dark Cacao Watcher/Bittersweet Coffee:

She enjoys gardening in The Cookie Kingdom, and can walk on a tightrope without fail.

Her favorite hobby is probably writing in her diary and creating beautiful art.

Since she is from the Coffee Tribe, she’s also a skilled baker!

Sugary Dark Cacao Watcher/Swirl Choco:

Just like Choco Chunk, he has a dad bod as well! But he’s also scared of heights.

Cow Choco and Candy Melt (Young Cookie From The Mountains) are his kids.

He also enjoys doing embroidery and making beautiful patterns on pillows.

Swift Dark Cacao Warrior/Cow Choco:

One of his favorite sports is soccer, and he is pretty skinny for a watcher his age.

Whenever he visits the Cookie Kingdom, he tries his best to find healthy options.

He often turns to Gianduja for advice when things get muddy.

Cautious Dark Cacao Watcher/Gianduja Choco:

The eldest of the watchers, and everyone sees him as a grandpa or dad- especially Bittersweet Coffee.

The other watchers and even Dark Cacao turn to him for friendly advice.

Despite his age, he’s still as strong as he was when in his youth!

Gatekeeper Cookie/Couverture Choco:

Arguably the chubbiest of the Watchers, and probably one of the fattest cookies on Earthbread.

Whenever the weather gets cold outside, he often lets the other watchers cuddle up to him.

And he’s actually got quite the gut when his armor is removed!

Peanut Butter Choco:

He’s childhood friends with Cow Choco, and both of them enjoy playing video games from time to time.

His favorite food is spicy peanut noodles, which is obvious.

He is a surprisingly good gymnast, and can often squeeze into tight spots.

Cube Choco:

The second eldest of the watchers, and he often likes to comb out his beard.

He also loves being called Grandpa or dad by the other Watchers.

He loves making beautiful toys in his spare time for the kids of the Dark Cacao Kingdom.

Two Years of Kingdom: Side Stories

The War Under Shattered Skies

Eclair Cookie: It’s the Cookie Alliance so… It was truly a thrilling experience. Eclair Cookie: To be able to record moments of history you’ve witnessed yourself! How exciting! Eclair Cookie: Wait, does that mean we should put this record at with* the Tea Leaf Knights records or the Beacon of Legends records? Eclair Cookie: Uhm… I wonder if it’s a good idea to store such important records in the same place… Espresso Cookie: Is Eclair Cookie here? Eclair Cookie: Oh, a guest. Did you come to tour the museum? Espresso Cookie: No. I’m here to return the material I borrowed. Eclair Cookie: Ah, if that’s the case, please leave it on the table. I’ll sort it out! Eclair Cookie: Hmm, should I just write a new book together… It’s good to look at history from multiple angles, but… Uhm… Espresso Cookie: You seem busy. Well then, I’ll be off… Eclair Cookie: Wait!!!!! Eclair Cookie: Since you’re here, I’d like to ask you for your opinion! Espresso Cookie: I’m a busy Cookie myself, but… SIgh, what is it? Eclair Cookie: You’re aware that the Cookie Alliance is a huge event that will make its mark on Cookie history, right? Eclair Cookie: I’m considering how to record and classify the incident. As always, the best thing to do is to compile more works from many various fields… Espresso Cookie: …I’m not sure. Is that necessary? Eclair Cookie: I’m sorry? Espresso Cookie: I’m saying, is there a need to do that when you’re already right there. Espresso Cookie: Conveying that which cannot be conveyed through writing. Is that not the job of a historian? Eclair Cookie: Oh?! Espresso Cookie: I understand the urge to share your experience of such a huge and important event, but… Espresso Cookie: There are always limits on writing. Espresso Cookie: Without your help this time, I would have had to search through all dragon-related materials one by one. Espresso Cookie: Who knows, perhaps there would have been no chance for the heroes who were forgotten from history to reveal them self again. Espresso Cookie: Well… that’s… Yes. Do as you please. Eclair Cookie: Espresso Cookie…! Eclair Cookie: Right. That’s it! I had forgotten that for a moment! Eclair Cookie: I thought he was a bad-tempered Cookie since he couldn’t even remember me* But I guess not!

*actual text

Espresso Cookie: Is that a compliment…? Eclair Cookie: Hahaha! Thank you for making me feel better! Eclair Cookie: Oh! Alright! We might as well hold a Cookie Alliance lecture in the museum! Eclair Cookie: What about inviting Espresso Cookie! As a special guest lecturer!! Espresso Cookie: No, I decline… Eclair Cookie: Don’t be like that! I’m sure everyone will love it! Espresso Cookie: Sigh… I’ll think about it when I have time…

The Heroes of Dark Cacao

Dark Cacao Cookie: …… Sugary Dark Cacao Watcher: …… Cube Choco Cookie: Uhm… Cough, cough. It’s quite cold today. Dark Cacao Cookie: …Is it long before the sun rises? Cautious Dark Cacao Warrior: The time for the sun to rise has already come… But the fog over the Licorice sea is particularly thick today, so it’s hard to see. Swift Dark Cacao Watcher: Oh goodness, that’s not good. It’s said that not seeing the sun for the Sunrise Holiday brings bad luck on the nation! Peanut Butter Choco Cookie: Stop with the nonsense. Can’t you see the people are agitated! Bittersweet Dark Cacao Watcher: But~ this sunrise spot is a pretty good neat!*

*actual text

Crunchy Chip Cookie: You there, would you stop talking such nonsense! Young Cookie from the Mountains: Will we really not be able to see the sun…? Even His Highness made an appearance… Snowfall Villager: Still, I believed that the sky would show us a sun as red as an apple today… Snowfall Villager: This is why it’s impossible to predict how the cotton farming will go this year. Bittersweet Dark Cacao Watcher: Ahh, I knew it! I shouldn’t have thrown away Affogato Cookie’s talisman! Dark Cacao Cookie: What nonsense! Bittersweet Dark Cacao Watcher: Surprise! Dark Cacao Cookie: The strength to lead for another year comes not from the weather, but the heart of a Cookie. Dark Cacao Cookie: Open your collar tightly. Make your resolve as firm as a rock, and live with sincerity, even on bitter days. Dark Cacao Cookie: That is the way of life in the Dark Cacao Kingdom. We will hold out this year as well, as we always have! Grandfather and Grandson of the Milk Village: His Highness is right~ Wooh! His Highness is right. Huh-huh! Cube Choco Cookie: Uhm… Listen carefully to His Highness’ teachings!

Caramel Arrow Cookie: That is indeed correct. But it is still too early to be disappointed! Dark Cacao Cookie: Oh, Caramel Arrow Cookie. You’re late. Did you stand guard all night? Caramel Arrow Cookie: Yes. Did you not witness a big white tiger while you stood at the mountain guard post?! Swift Dark Cacao Watcher: Oooh…! A white tiger? The symbol of good luck?! Caramel Arrow Cookie: That’s right. As I followed the tiger like a Cookie possessed, it disappeared into the mist and all I could see in front of me was our firmly rooted Black Wall! Caramel Arrow Cookie: It’s the castle I see every day, but today it stands tall like a tiger running through the snowy mountains. Caramel Arrow Cookie: The sun is sure to rise. This year, our Kingdom will be strong and proud! Dark Cacao Cookie: Step forward, Caramel Arrow Cookie. Caramel Arrow Cookie: Command me as you wish. Dark Cacao Cookie: It seems that the fog is too thick for the Sun to find its way to our castle. Dispel the fog and open the way! Caramel Arrow Cookie: Yes, I will shoot my arrow to the ends of the sky!

Caramel Arrow Cookie: Go-!!

Swift Dark Cacao Watcher: The arrow rushes forward with the momentum of a tiger… The fog lifts!! Cautious Dark Cacao Warrior: What a beautiful sight…! It’s the first time in my Cookie life I’ve seen a sun so big and red! Dark Cacao Cookie: Um. May it be a good year for all! Caramel Arrow Cookie: Long live his Highness Dark Cacao Cookie!! The Kingdom’s Subjects: Long live his Highness Dark Cacao Cookie. Long live the Dark Cacao Kingdom!

Cookie Odyssey

Strawberry Crepe Cookie: Oh goodness, this Wafflebot is so dusty! Strawberry Crepe Cookie: Espresso Cookie, hand me that rag over there. I’ll have to wipe it down before I start maintenance. Strawberry Crepe Cookie: I could’ve gotten that myse- Huh? What’s this? Strawberry Crepe Cookie: The postal ship came this morning. Most of them seem like ad flyers, though. Strawberry Crepe Cookie: There were quite a few letters from the Republic, so I put them here to show you. So what do they say? Any good news? Espresso Cookie: Well, most of them are advertisement flyers. Celebration of Mud town supermarket’s Grand Opening… News about funding for a fake pearl necklace that looks very real… Espresso Cookie: Why send this all way* across the ocean.

*actual text

Strawberry Crepe Cookie: Here, there’s a letter for Espresso Cookie as well. It’s from… Landlord Cookie? Espresso Cookie: Hm? I see. Dear Espresso Cookie, Espresso Cookie: How have you been? I’m writing to you because I saw that you still had some unclaimed administrative fees after you left. I’ll attach the details below... Espresso Cookie: That’s a very elaborately disguised chain letter, I see. Feel free to dispose of it. Strawberry Crepe Cookie: What? It didn’t look like it… Espresso Cookie: Ah! This is truly an important letter. It’s from Clotted Cream Cookie!

Clotted Cream Cookie’s Letter: How have you been? After your departure, we gathered our soldiers and began an extensive search as discussed. Clotted Cream Cookie’s Letter: Of course, the search involved finding a piece of Soul Jam as well as gathering information about Dark Enchantress Cookie. Clotted Cream Cookie’s Letter: As a result, I’m writing down the most important pieces of news. Clotted Cream Cookie’s Letter: First, for some more details on the Beast-Yeast Continent… And having obtained very specific rumors on the final ancient hero Cookie whose location has been undisclosed so far…

Espresso Cookie: Whoa…! This is quite exciting news? Espresso Cookie: I’ll go see Pure Vanilla Cookie. Ah, the coffee will have gone cold when I return… Hm… Strawberry Crepe Cookie: Huh? Didn’t I tell you? The weather was so cold that I developed this mug warmer. Espresso Cookie: Strawberry Crepe Cookie! Espresso Cookie: Right, here is the rag you requested. Strawberry Crepe Cookie: You should’ve done that earlier! Hehe! Have a good trip!

Festival of Dreams & Wishes

GingerBrave: Ahh… Time to wake up! GingerBrave: Huh? What time is it?! Last night’s festival was so fun! Maybe too fun… GingerBrave: The fireworks, the ballroom, the music…! Everything was tip-top! And the special guests from fairy tale kingdoms…! GingerBrave: It was a fantastic night! A festival I’ll definitely never forget!

Strawberry Crepe Cookie: Knock knock! GingerBrave, OPEN UP! GingerBrave: Strawberry Crepe Cookie! GingerBrave: Why are you here so early? Were we going to hang out today? Strawberry Crepe Cookie: What kind of nonsense is that? Get ready! The dishes won’t do themselves! GingerBrave: What? The dishes…? GingerBrave: THE DISHES!!!

Wizard Cookie: I knew you’d forget about your duties, so we brought them all here! There’s another basket, so make sure not to forget it! Strawberry Cookie: Here are the cups and cutlery as well.. S-Sorry… GingerBrave: Whoah… I didn’t even know we had this many plates in the Cookie Castle! How am I going to wash this up all by myself? Strawberry Crepe Cookie: Well, you should’ve thought of that first! I mean, before you suggested picking a Cookie to do the dishes with rock-paper-scissors! Ha ha ha! Strawberry Crepe Cookie: If you don’t wash up quickly, there’s no breakfast for you. The Sugar Gnomes were already up waiting! Sugar Gnome: Take your time… We’re already melting, but this is fine… GingerBrave: Oh! OH! Fine, I’ll do it! Cream Unicorn Cookie: Ahh… Looking at the pile of dishes, I can tell that last night’s party wasn’t a dream!

Princess Cookie: Right?! The ball was fun, but the slumber party with the princesses was the best! Knight Cookie: Your Highness, you were most well-mannered and eloquent, as always, Your Highness!!! Knight Cookie: Your eyes shone with genuine curiosity, just like when Her Majesty Queen Jungleberry Cookie read you to sleep! Princess Cookie: Talking to the fairy tale princesses was even better than reading about them! Just think about all the magical adventures they’ve been through! Princess Cookie: You could call them my… beautiful and brave adventuring mentors! Princess Cookie: We decided to keep in touch to further strengthen the friendship between our great kingdoms! GingerBrave: I’m glad you all had a great time! He he! GingerBrave: Listen, I’ve many fun stories to share, so why don’t you stay and he…

All: WE’LL BE ON OUR WAY! GingerBrave: Wa-wait… Help me just a little, I beg you!

Legend of the Duskgloom Sea

Black Pearl Cookie: Let it all sink!!!! Ahahaha!!! Black Pearl Cookie: Not a single ship, not even a Cookie crumb! You won’t be able to escape from this sea! Black Pearl Cookie: Hehe, hehehe… Black Pearl Cookie: … Black Pearl Cookie: It’s so still… Wait, could it be that was the last ship just now? Black Pearl Cookie: Cookies are very weak~ Black Pearl Cookie: Going against the waves, against the currents! Black Pearl Cookie: Throwing yourself into the sea… Black Pearl Cookie: Coveting pearls… Black Pearl Cookie: Argh, I’m fed up… Black Pearl Cookie: … Black Pearl Cookie: La… La… La… La… La… Black Pearl Cookie: To the deepest part of the sea… Black Pearl Cookie: What’s left… ♩ Black Pearl Cookie: Glory to the land, romance to the sea, Couldn’t I have dreamed of romance forever… ♬ Black Pearl Cookie: Pearls are eternal… …What I wish for is memories Black Pearl Cookie: Slowly sinking into the deepest darkness… ♪ Black Pearl Cookie: Pearls are eternal… Black Pearl Cookie: What I wish for is… Memories… Black Pearl Cookie: La… La… La… Black Pearl Cookie: La… La… Black Pearl Cookie: … Black Pearl Cookie: I curse you… Forever…

BRAVER TOGETHER

GingerBrave: Strawberry Cookie! You dropped something! Strawberry Cookie: Hmm…?

Wizard Cookie: This is… a ticket from the concert held here in the Cookie Kingdom. Why do you still have this? Strawberry Cookie: Of course…! But I want to cherish the memories of that day… Strawberry Cookie: Wizard Cookie, you still remember, right? GingerBrave: Surely he still remembers? Wizard Cookie cried when concert* ended after all!

*actual text

Wizard Cookie: Eh-hm… Uhm… Was that it… GingerBrave: At that time, the KIngdom was really in an uproar. Now, everyone has gone back to normal! GingerBrave: It seemed like it never happened! Strawberry Cookie: But even on the way home from the concert I could still hear the booming sound of music! ???: Dum- Dum- Dum-! Wizard Cookie: …? It’s not just who can hear it, Strawberry Cookie. I think I can hear it too? ???: That’s not it, not at all!

ZZ Skull: Have you forgotten all about loving yourself? You have to be sincere! HellHound: Sometimes I sincerely want to show a different side of my self. MUSHY P.: Spores~ They’re saying we can do anything~~ T.N.T: Don’t fight! We can become anything! Believe me, the leader! Wizard Cookie: So that was the sound of B.A.D 4 practicing… The concert must’ve made a big impression on them… Strawberry Cookie: But we all did, didn’t we…? GingerBrave: That’s right! And it makes me happy to think that this special day will remain in the hearts of other Cookies as well! T.N.T: I will go there again! By listening to the sound of my own heart! B.A.D 4: One, two!! ♪♫♪~!!

Stories by the Fireplace

Carol Cookie: Hmm~ Hmmm~ Carol Cookie: A Kingdom made by such small hands~ It’s full of laughter~ Carol Cookie: If I play it for Pinecone Cookies* they’ll definitely like it right?

*actual text

Carol Cookie: Uhm… I think it was around here… Did I get lost again… Carol Cookie: The way here is always so confusing!

You show up somewhere new everytime you visit the forest! Pinecone Cookie: I searched the whole forest in time for you to come again today! Carol Cookie: Is that so? Carol Cookie: But Pinecone Cookie finds you easily, no matter where you are!

New Year, New Adventures

Pancake Cookie: Let’s play! Please? Come on, play with me! Fig Cookie: You’re a cute one I see~ Alright, what should we do? Pancake Cookie: Wow, so exciting! Hehehe* The prediction from my fortune cookie came true!

*actual text

Alchemist Cookie: Huh? Your fortune cookie prediction came true? Pancake Cookie: Hehe~ My fortune cookie said, ‘If a nice Cookie passes you by, hold on to them. They’ll have fun with you.’ Fig Cookie: Mine was ‘Your surroundings will be filled with sweet laughter.’ Pancake Cookie smiled at me, so I guess mine came true too~ Alchemist Cookie: What? That’s too vague to be a prediction. Alchemist Cookie: Writing down such natural things and pretending you’re telling the future is pure nonsense! Pancake Cookie: Ooh, is that so? Alchemist Cookie: Then me saying ‘Pancake Cookie is going to eat Acorn Jelly today’ also qualifies as a prediction! Fig Cookie: Ahh, so that’s what it is~ Alchemist Cookie: Prophet Cookie really gives out some strange things. Isn’t it also a lie to say he’s a miraculous prophet? Pancake Cookie: Ah that’s right~ Alchemist Cookie, what was written in your fortune cookie? Alchemist Cookie: Me? Mine was ‘There will come a time when your logical thinking shines through’.* That’s not even a real prediction!

*actual text

Alchemist Cookie: Everyone will have a logical thought at one point or another, so isn’t that a given? Fig Cookie: I see~ Alchemist Cookie is really smart*

*actual text

Pancake Cookie: But according to Alchemist Cookie, do fortune cookies not provide accurate predictions? Fig Cookie: That’s right~ But Alchemist Cookie might be upset to hear that you believe in such vague prophecies, so let’s keep it to ourselves! Pancake Cookie: Hehe sure!

I really love your version of yandere Dark cacao cookie! I was wondering if you could do a Gn reader who finally shows a little affection towards him? perhaps the king himself coming wounded after a battle and Reader shows a slight concern towards him and decides to attend to his wounds theyself, a little fluff

First Display of Affection (Yandere Dark Cacao Cookie x GN Cookie!Reader)

CW: yandere themes, mentions of blood and fluff.

A/N: thank you for the compliment! Your compliment really makes me smile, dear anon!!

‿︵‿︵ʚ˚̣̣̣͙ɞ・❉・ ʚ˚̣̣̣͙ɞ‿︵‿︵

"Move!! King Dark Cacao Cookie was injured!! The king needs urgent care!!" You heard one of his warriors shouting for a healer to come for his aid. You stood up from the throne you used to sit on painfully for hours and ran towards the master bedroom. The swift of your long purple cape followed pursuit as many of the healers and watchers, including Caramel Arrow Cookie, were heavily concerned for the king's well being.

Deep inside, you were smiling. A sinister smile grew from your head at the thought of your husband being at risk in death's gate. You didn't care on how badly he was wounded from the battle he fought hours ago. "Your majesty! Thank goodness you were here!" Caramel Arrow spoke towards you. "Good to see you, Caramel Arrow Cookie. How was my husband? Is he..okay?" You said in concern, making Caramel Arrow Cookie panicking a little.

God you hated it when you refer Dark Cacao as your husband. It's sickening....

"I don't know, your majesty. I tried to save him but we're too late since he was ambushed by so many bandits. I deeply apologize for that, my queen/king." You were quite surprised that the first watcher was incredibly loyal towards him, that also includes this kingdom whom you call your prison. Placing a hand on her shoulder, you showed a small smile as you reassured her that she did her best on protecting the king.

Cries of panic and fear began to arose from the room. You heard some of the healers claiming that the bleeding from his wounds won't stop and tried absolutely everything to save the king. Much to your dismay, you felt a bit concerned towards him, worried even. You theorized that Dark Cacao must've passed out from the deep wounds he earned.

Just for this one time, you're gonna help him from bleeding to death. You may hated him for all your life but he's the one who brought you to a life of luxury and took care of you despite your tantrums and the insults you threw at him in a daily basis. "Caramel Arrow Cookie," she perked up from your voice. "Bring me lots of bandages and some herbal ointment. I'm not losing my husband from his wounds."

As soon as you obtained the required items, you quickly ran towards the bedroom and tell some of the healers to move to the side. You examined the wound you saw from his chest and it was much worse as it is. "Our magic isn't enough to heal your husband, your grace. Do you have any methods to save his majesty? A healer said, his voice was laced in paranoia and fear. It's deep and the magic that the healers used to seal up the wound isn't enough. It looks like you're gonna do the traditional type of healing.

"We're going to do the traditional method, something my village uses whenever milk isn't available yet." You looked at your sleeping husband and cupped the side of his face. Surprisingly, he leaned in as soon as your hand made contact with his face.

How adorable your husband was....

You felt your smile creeping towards you face but quickly shook your head. 'Focus, (y/n), you still have a life of save." Now with the medical kit and the items you recently received from Caramel Arrow, you and the other healers are ready to treat your husband's wounds. "You made me worried sick, Dark Cacao. Now, let's get your wounds treated.."

. ·͙*̩̩͙˚̩̥̩̥*̩̩̥͙　✩　*̩̩̥͙˚̩̥̩̥*̩̩͙‧͙ .

As hours passed, Dark Cacao woke up and the first thing he saw was the ceiling of the shared bedroom. 'What? How did I-' his thoughts were cut short as he felt the pain from his exposed chest, now wrapped in bandages and the lingering smell of the herbal ointment had spread in every corner of the room.

Across the room, he saw his now damaged armour and his crown was firmly placed at the table he used to work in. He was confused on why his armour was placed on the stand but quickly realized that he wore the purple and lilac colored hanbok he used to wear when he's not on the battle field. It was not tied and it was left open in order for the healers to replace the bandages easier.

Dark Cacao Cookie tries to get up from the bed but felt something poking on his shoulders. He was confused for a bit, thinking that it's just a stone or a stick stuck to his hair but was surprised on what he saw;

It was you, his dearest spouse, sleeping in the bed and your arm was placed on his chest as a way to cuddle him.

It's quite unusual for you to initiate to cuddle with him. It was always him who wanted some hugs and cuddles from you, which you refuse to do so. He only smiled pridefully as he pushes your sleeping body towards his, wrapping his other arm on your shoulders. Your husband still remembers the words you've spoken before he passed out.

"I'm not losing my husband from his wounds."

"You made me worried sick, Dark Cacao."

"How was my husband? Is he..okay?"

He looks at you in worry and in guilt as he placed a strand of your hair to the side and takes off your tiara, placing it on the bedside table. "I'm sorry if I made you worry, my love but I deeply appreciate the words you said when you and the healers treated this wound of mine. Even if you hate me, I know that you still cared for me."

Your husband deeply loves this small gesture you made for him. For the very first time, you showed him a bit of your concern and affection towards him. He will do anything just to feel this kind of affection from his own lover but for now...

He'll enjoy your presence alone, in the same bed the both of you shared.

Dark Cacao Sr; Necromancy, Tombstone, Full Moon and Nightshade

Necromancy

What are their views on death? Undeath? Immortality?

Everything is destined to die in the end. It comes fast and swift, when you least expect it, gripping the throats of the people you love and hold most dear in the world and leaving you a hollow, bitter shell of who you used to be. And you may wish to breathe them back to life, but to do so is folly. And you may wish to live forever, but where do you stop in that pursuit? Where along the journey to you cease to retain your heart? Where--along the miserable expanse of a never-ending life, filled with a hellish cycle of grief and pain--do you cease to remember yourself entirely? How long can you keep your name before it means nothing?

No. To deny one's mortality is a folly. To fight for yourself and those you love within reason... That is expected. That is...

Necessary. Even if you die in the process.

Tombstone

What do they think their legacy would be? What do they think people would etch on their tombstone or say at their funeral?

Madness. His legacy would be madness.

What else could the pursuit for a fabled weapon possibly lead to? He expected to die in the process, and he did. Desperate madness and paranoia and fear that led him to wage war rather than simply... Ask for help. Heartache and pain that breeds heartache and pain. Frenzy in clawing apart the land and the rock and the soil to find a glimpse of hope that he doesn't even believe in. He's chasing tales and dreams, and he knows this. And he is insane--the definition of insanity being 'repeating the same thing over and over again while expecting different results'.

He never knew that he was right.

Etched upon the tombstone, he expects the words to be brief. 'Here lies Dark Cacao Cookie the Third - The King Who Fought Beside His Comrades in War and in Death'.

He doesn't expect for cookies to mourn.

He also doesn't expect for his son to achieve his goal. He doesn't expect for his son to treat his grave more respectfully than most.

Full Moon

What is one thing they try their best to stay ignorant of? What illusions do they uphold but really shouldn't?

'Everything that I am doing is necessary. The ends will justify the means, even if the guilt and stress makes it impossible to sleep most nights. I promise.'

Disheveled hair, grizzled face, lines creasing his face. Tired eyes. He looks at himself in the mirror and doesn't see a king so much as a man of misery. Keep telling yourself that, dear. Maybe someday you will believe it.

Nightshade

How would they prefer to die?

He wishes that he could lie and say that he wants to go down in a blaze of glory. Whether it be steel against steel, or blade against the flesh of the serpents that swim in the sea, or frenzied wild creatures that hunger just as much as he and his citizens do. He does like and say that.

...Yes. This is what he wants.

The passing thoughts of rest--of dying slow and gentle like his wife, sleeping quietly in his bed after a life of dedication and sacrifices--it means nothing. The want to leave final earnest, honest words--quiet words only shared between them, the dream of knowing his son will live happy, and that he will leave him be to find his own happiness in a way that Dark Cacao the Third only held so fleetingly... It means nothing. Being able to see his young baby grandson one final time means nothing.

He promises.

He will die in a blaze of glory. That's what Cacaonian warriors are supposed to do, after all. His parents would be proud of that.
