If you could press your hands into the sternum
of a black hole and pry it open
like a ribcage
and eat its heart
raw
would you?

Biography

When she was needed, Hydaelyn plucked Revenir out of the lifestream and tossed her into the Black Shroud, fully formed. Thrust into immaculate existence, this was the Warrior of Light's first coronation.It was raining that night in the woods, where she sat in the shallow waters and raised her head, having been nudged by a glowing, beautiful creature. She came face to face with a unicorn, whose rare appearance drew the notice of a patrol, who then notified the Conjurer's Guild. She was taken in and evaluated for immediate medical attention. It did not take them long to uncover her sudden origins and proclivity for aether manipulation, which made her a stunning, immaculate candidate to join their guild.In a sense, Revenir was raised here. She was very prodigal and quickly tore through her studies. Eventually, due to the sanctity of her existence and the raw power she commanded and controlled, she was given the honor of becoming the first non-padjali White Mage.In her adventures, she drew the eye and attention of the Scions of the Seventh Dawn, also drawn into their ranks with the lofty goal of working toward a brighter existence.Her greatest struggle is that she was not born into the world. She gives, she performs, she receives praise... but is praise love? With no one to embrace her, to show her the world and introduce her to it: kindly, painfully, mournfully, sweetly--how is she supposed to feel real?What happens when she meets someone whose anhedonic existence, whose upbringing, equally devoid, leads him to monstrous intentions. Can either of them be saved?As she spirals and begins to delve more into the occult and taboo, Revenir's story explores personhood and dehumanization, creation, destruction, grief, and existential struggle, and the ultimate question: who is deserving of life and love?

^{"Victory after victory, and yet no applause. Not in any way that matters. When children are born, they are embraced, first, by their parents. They learn to seek acknowledgement, affirmation from this source as they grow — as they are praised and raised. What happens when somebody lacks that bond, that experience? Who is enough to give someone their flowers? Revenir stands victorious, alone. The masses clap, the Scions clap, and she cannot hear them. Not where she stands, isolated from everyone."}
