@cynisterash.bsky.socialHe was wrong. But not in the way you think.
Gold operates by his own moral compass, so it’s not a question of morals. In fact, his motives are still selfish nonetheless.
He simply never asked for so much to hinge upon him, to hold so much power. He only ever wanted to be himself.
@cynisterash.bsky.socialGold would rather chew on glass actually.
(No shade to Sharlayan enjoyers, Gold and Arashi just fucking hate Sharlayan).
He doesn’t feel his current level of education would benefit from Sharlayan’s unwelcome intervention whatsoever.
@cynisterash.bsky.socialGold’s height was stunted due to his undeath and the manner of his reconstruction. He never grows any taller than 5’3”/160.02cm
It’s a bit of a sore spot for him for lots of reasons. He usually wears heels. He likes feeling small/secure with his husbands though.
@cynisterash.bsky.socialGold’s hair is very thick and grows back at supernatural speeds, so you might catch him wearing a variety of hairstyles that seem impossible to achieve in sequence to one another.

@cynisterash.bsky.socialFor Gold I’m gonna say it unrepentantly, he would %1000 identify with Jinx from Arcane.
I will not be taking feedback at this time thank you. 🙏💖

Sometimes all you need is someone to believe in you to do the extraordinary.
(Finally introducing a canon NPC, who could it be?)
@cynisterash.bsky.socialEntry Fifteen: Prodigy
Who is truly the Empire’s best and brightest?
@cynisterash.bsky.socialEntry Fourteen: Against the Grain
Golden gets his first true taste for blood, and a new perspective on his true purpose.
@cynisterash.bsky.socialEntry Thirteen: The Golden Hour (Part 2)
The investigation beyond the boundary continues, and once again leaves more questions than answers.
@cynisterash.bsky.socialEntry Twelve: Fusion
The failures of the Empire spur him onward, they can’t afford to waste time asking questions.
@cynisterash.bsky.socialEvery time I see this question I forget that Gold is an unsundered
Me: “huh I wonder why I haven’t thought these up yet”
Also me: “I have once again forgotten my most titular lore point”
@cynisterash.bsky.socialEntry Eleven: Oblivion
Look too long into the void…. You might find yourself looking back.
@cynisterash.bsky.socialEntry Ten: Upbraiding
A rebellion ensues and draws ire and punishment. What was seen cannot be unseen. The question lies in who will break first.
@cynisterash.bsky.socialEntry Nine: Boustrophedon
Learning to weave the pattern of betrayal… or the pattern of freedom? Learning they may be one and the same.
@cynisterash.bsky.socialEntry Eight: Strain
How far can one be bent before they break?
@cynisterash.bsky.socialEntry Seven: Ignorance is Bliss
And “love” makes men blind.
@cynisterash.bsky.socialEntry Six: The Golden Hour (part one)
If curiosity kills the cat, what discovery is bound to bring it back? Only time may tell.
@cynisterash.bsky.socialEntry Five: Preservartion
What preserves the soul is merely a work of fiction.
@cynisterash.bsky.socialEntry Four: Surge
What brings one back from the depths, pushes another into oblivion.
@cynisterash.bsky.socialEntry Three: Echelon
What is the real definition of power? Is it something given, something claimed, or something born?
