Ophelia

Wake up
Take my hand and give me a reason to start again

“A dwarf man who considered ruling the Grounds. We were hunting a landshark - though I would not have missed him if I’d killed him.” He had been quite unpleasant to Ophelia in their first few meetings, so Phi would have had no inclination to mourn him. Simple as that.

Pulling out their own little bundle of gems - which seem more purple than Phi had guessed now that they’re free - they laugh brightly at Danta’s pun and grin toothily at him as they put their chunk of gems with his own. “Who is saying that? Friends should not lie to each other.” Danta is always the most fun to tease; Edmund always gets a pouty look on his face, and Zefira just gets snide. No fun at all.

The next cluster is small, but closer to the surface at least. Ophelia begins chipping away at it readily. “Our party was delightful, why shouldn’t they come?” Though Phi briefly mourns a distant future where too many newcomers reduce the amount of animals readily available to slaughter, there’s always the potential for more cannibalistic endeavors then!
