Tales of Xadia characters-Tressal

Name: Tressal Pronounce: He/him Kingdom: Neolandia Profession: Dark Mage Information: Tressal he is a salty and snarky teenager. He resents his elders because they dragged him into petty political struggles. He was sent to Xadia for a mission to bring materials back to Neolandia but he grown fond for the unfamiliar culture and starts questioning everything he believed in. *They know how to cook.

On a personal note:

I think Rayla met him in Scumport in Chasing Shadows, it's totally make sense, I don't think it's coincidence. I might right a fanfic about it.

Hi Hi 👋

I love your stuff so much! I am reading Game Theory again, and recently read Tradewinds for a second time.

I find Heart Songs and Unseelie appetites really interesting as a concept.

Some Fae eat other Fae and Mosk losing his Heart song was massively catastrophic. Everyone seemed to be fairly horrified that his Heart song was gone. So I was musing over Heart songs and appetites for a bit and I wondered how an Unseelie Fae might be received by other Fae if their appetite was literally to eat people's Heartsongs and leave them empty?

Would this be scarier than say a Fae who ate another Fae or would it be subjective/about the same?

Would such an appetite even be possible/does a Fae like that already exist for you?

Your world building gets the brain spinning in such a good way. :D

Ooooo some worldbuilding questions *rubs hands together*

So I was musing over Heart songs and appetites for a bit and I wondered how an Unseelie Fae might be received by other Fae if their appetite was literally to eat people's Heartsongs and leave them empty?

Tbh I can't imagine it existing? Like it kind of breaks the world to exist.

The thing I wanted re: Davix and Olphix removing the heartsong was for it to be such an alien concept, and such an anathema to the entirety of the fae - more than rape, or torture, or cannibalism, etc. - was this one act that only they were capable of, and more than that, only they were willing to do.

And so on that axis if any fae speculatively/hypothetically could eat heartsongs, then they'd absolutely be scarier than any other kind of fae. The idea of heartsongs being removed is so jarring that we witness fae who have endured some of the worst tortures imaginable (particularly Augus and Gwyn) being extremely shocked over it. Augus in particular, who has endured something almost no one else in the fae realm ever has - underworld torture - that literally drove him to madness, still finds the idea of a removed heartsong absolutely repellent.

It's not like any other crime that exists. It is, to fae, separate and apart from any other horrible act.

So yeah, a fae with that appetite can't exist in this world, otherwise firstly, I don't think any fae would have had the reaction they did to Olphix and Davix's actions (so their reaction to what happened to Mosk would no longer make any sense at all), but it also wouldn't make Olphix's and Davix's crimes so serious in the first place, if they're just doing what some other fae can do just by like...being hungry.

And it wouldn't be a thing that so many fae haven't ever heard of happening before.

So it's definitely something that could happen in fanfiction folks wrote for themselves! But otherwise it was something I only ever intended to be possible through magic, which is part of the narrative that 'magic works against the natural order at its most bombastic' (see also: Mosk growing a hickory tree in the sea, and the flesh fruit, and a bunch of other things that come into existence through magic, not least that the Raven Prince survived dying).

Back on my MalMage agenda

After almost 2 years of plotting and driving myself insane, I finally decided to publish the first chapter of my "MalMage is canon" fic.

A slow slow burn with a lot of angst and smut. Canon divergence.

I'm sorry Rainbow.

Cautionary Tale

Rating: E, and has MCD

Word Count: (45 k posted; 69 k in WIP)

Summary:

What if the adults in the Carry On books were actually Watford students? What if we took MalMage seriously and gave them a real backstory?

This is the Carry On equivalent of "All The Young Dudes", and it starts in 7th year at Watford but with other students. Perhaps Malcolm and Davy?

Read on AO3
