Name: Daenerys Targaryen
Date: Octeuril 8
Format: Video

[ Daenerys had made it quite clear since arriving that she does not trust many. She's spoken out against the Coven in their fear of opposing Dorchacht when slavery was a very serious reality and also wary of how quickly dignitaries were shipped off to take responsibility for something outside of their control. So today, she is visible with a serious expression on her face — although those eyes still have a warmth to them that her closer allies may recognize.

There's no pleasantries, instead: ]


It has been a little bit since many of us have returned from Dorchacht. My bones have settled back into the bed I’ve grown use to, but my mind still wanders. I can not shake a sense of… discomfort after everything, even if my heart is pleased to know we have helped forged a better future for Dorchacht.

However, I ask of you all — how do we feel returning back to this city? How do you feel about the Coven in Aefenglom in their role of this prior month? We have been shown kindness, however we not native here and if it comes between us and their “peace”, I am not foolish enough to put my faith to them. We were sent into a situation that could have ended tragically. I call that irresponsible and it is clear Aefenglom was willing to stay silent keeping peace. There are things the Coven has done, although not quite as enraging as Dorchacht, which leaves me feeling frustrated and wary.

I ask this question not to sway opinion, but to discuss where do we — the ones from the mirrors — go if Aefenglom is no longer the ally we may believe them to be? Having this conversation of where our allegiance lies will help make choices easier – more collective — going forth.

Please, share your thoughts.

---------------------------------

[ HI GUYS. This is a big ole open post for everyone to discuss the shakiness of Aefenglom, Parliament, and the Coven as a whole in regards to the Mirrorbound. I hope to move a plot forward of seeking independence without Aefenglom’s influence in the next few weeks and would love to ICly get talks going so points can be made for why this could be a good or bad thing. I will be refining a plot proposal based upon the feedback ICly brought up here!! I will try to reply to topics relevant to Dany, but this is kind of a springboard for a broader discussion. So go ham, thread jack, etc! ]

There's always some kind of price to pay.

Each summoning is based on set of rules. Assuming the rules are identical in each and every world is basic mistake. So far everything supports the hypothesis of souls summoned into vessels created by this world.

Even if our physical bodies seem identical to those we usually possess, they're afflicted by this world to the same extent as original inhabitants. Magic and abilities are limited by this world's rules and not by the world that we come from.

A price to pay for Aefenglom's Coven's decision, a group of witches looking for gain, and not of this world.

The rules of this land do not matter when the moon could be lifted from us with no compulsion, if that is what people worry about. That is what I question.
boneofsword: (that is possible)

Why are you sure it's the Coven?

Why are you sure it's possible to change the rules of the world you live in?

We are not speaking of the same things at this point. Dorchacht hides their full moon through spells, preserving their monsters from unnecessary ferality. Aefenglom does not. What is difficult to understand about this?

What makes you think this can not be changed, wise one?
boneofsword: (matter of no importance)

Perhaps you consider your mental faculties as unimportant if you prefer the Dorchacht way. From what I've seen they manage it by controlling minds of their Monster population.

Is that a price you wish to pay, wise one?

Compulsion spells and Weather spells are two completely different bases, fool.

Though, I won’t above learning the latter one day. My magic is still with me.

What makes you certain they are not connected? Cloudy night happen even in Aefenglom yet they seem to not affect how the moons work in the slightest.

Tide still happens regardless if moons are visible or not.

Perhaps I will have to prove it myself.
