#trystan is gender of choice so it can’t be them#it HAS to be lydea or astrid#and it honestly could be either of them because this book loves its side plots#but you have to admit that lydea makes the most sense#she *was* the crown princess when trystan was in exile & she and the queen doubtless had plans to maintain a politically-conservative rule#but that would be predicated on a) eliminating trystan#b) eliminating the act for heir equity (because otherwise vasili would take lydea’s place)#and c) making sure to eliminate juliana in the process (because she knew that lydea didn’t belong in the conventional line of succession)#killing juliana & framing trystan for it did all those things in one go#but then trystan came back & wanted to revive the act with nadja – so it was necessary to kill her#and then sebastyan kept pushing for the act – so he had to be killed as well#other supporting evidence for this is that lydea went mysteriously MIA at the time of sebastyan’s death#contradictory evidence is that it’d be odd for her to *kill* him to eliminate him rather than just letting him take the fall for the murders#the only explanation I can think of is that maybe sebastyan also had incriminating intel on lydea?#remember: he did have juliana’s locket in his possession#and he may have written something about lydea in the ledger we handed over to her#and we did hear him on the phone at the gala to somebody he’d made a ‘deal’ with#maybe he’d promised keep lydea’s illegitimacy secret in exchange for something? but then she realised that if he got accused he would tattle#it’s all only thoughts but it’s SO interesting to think about#I can’t wait to see what happens next#playchoices#choices: stories you play#crimes of passion#fandom essay#original post

In the wild, all that is vivid and bright is considered the most poisonous. The same can be said for Nymeria Sand. Beneath her crimson painted lips, and near glimmering exterior lies a lethal predator that never misses her mark. Nym was born and brought up in a world in which blood and violence were the only things she could find comfort in, as they provided both power and a constant that remained unchanged. Abandoned by her mother not long after her birth, Nym was left at her fathers door, and more or less at the mercy of the mafia. She never had a constant parental presence for most her early life, the closet was perhaps her sister Obara though as much as she loved her half sister the two butted heads at every turn*. Her sisters are the most important people in her life, when they need her she’s there without hesitation.
Nymeria was bestowed her father’s attention* when she was no longer a child, as she began to emerge a beautiful and capable young woman. Already she had the attention of many of his soldiers with her coy smiles and wayward glances, always in control never allowing anyone to take more than she was willing to give. And oh the things she could do with a blade in her hand, she was the perfect weapon, and she more than proved her worth to the man she both revered and loathed. Nym was barely of age when she first marred her conscious by taking a life. Though she was her father’s daughter, and soon the kills ceased to even make her flinch. She would merely wash her hands of the blood and any thought of empathy until killing became second nature.
Poison and knifes, are Nymeria’s forte. So often on her ruby lips, dripping from her pointed nails, concealed on the pin prink of a needles she carries the most lethal poisons with careful precision. At anytime, there are no less than three blades on her person, if her attire allows. Though more than the weapons she wields, she’s groomed herself to be the weapon, training routinely to keep herself in prime form, skilling in various styles of fight her long limbs move like a dancers, an acrobats. Her charm is much a weapon as her body, she’s not above employing her beauty to get what she wants, to disarm her targets, to distract and enthrall. She’s more than earned her role as a Martell family agent, an assassin of the highest skill.
Beyond the killer is a woman of many passions, and whems. Her fascination with history and the arts was prevalent from the start and she knew herself well enough to know she needed to pursue her interests for self fulfilment outside her position within the mafia, though it has never taken precedence over her loyalties and duties towards the Martells. Not her work, and not any person she’s found herself close to over the years.

𝑪𝒐𝒏𝒏𝒆𝒄𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏𝒔
Platonic
THE BEST FRIEND  :  Her platonic life partner, her closest confidant, who knows her better than she knows herself. ( 0 / 1 )
CAN'T LIVE WITH THEM, CAN'T LIVE WITHOUT THEM  :  A childhood friend who is her stark contrast and because of this they tend to always disagree, but their one of her oldest friends and that’s not going to change. So they just have to agree to disagree.      ( 0 / 1 )
FAMILY OF CHOICE  :  A group of friends that grew up in the crime world, and found comfort in one another. They look out for each other in a fight, always there to clean up battle wounds, there for each other in the good and bad. ( 0 / 4 ) 
Romantic 
TOO CLOSE FOR COMFORT  :  The person that got a little too close too soon, without her ever realizing it. Pushing them away was as much about protecting them as it was about protecting herself. Perhaps someone not explicitly tied to the mafia, or at least not to the violent side of things.  (  0 / 1 )
SELF-FULFILLING PROPHECY  :  They both had certain expectations of the other when they began seeing one another, and could never completely get past those and thus their relationship was doomed from the start. ( 0 / 1 )
FATAL ATTRACTION  :  Enemies in the barest sense, though the chemistry is undeniable, and the sex is explosive so they’re walking a fine line. Wanting what you shouldn’t want, the forbidden fruit is always sweeter, etc. ( 0 / 1 )
BETTER AS FRIENDS  :  Someone whom she started out as friends with, then they fooled around a bit only to realize they were better as friends. Things could be awkward since or not. ( 0 / 1 )
Antagonistic
A BITTER RIVALRY  :  An assassin or enforcer from a rival family, they’ve found themselves at odds many times, and would do anything to one up the other. ( 0 / 1 )
