♧ – Does your muse have any regrets about a battle or incident they had to fight in? Has it changed them?

(Lance most definitely has. The Steel Vigil left it’s scars both physically and mentally. He regrets that they lost the Vigil and their commander. He know he was still too young to have made a strong difference in that fight. Doesn’t mean it haunts him any less. He still returns to the ruined Vigil once a year to pray to Halone for those lost that day. That loss made him work harder and remain true and loyal to Haillenarte despite his family. Even went as far as to explore the ruins of The Palace of the Dead when he heard rumors of his commander’s ghost having been sighted down there.)

(For Alex that would have been his fight against his former mentor. He regrets not making sure the man was actually dead before he fled. Years later it led to him being tortured for two days and nearly killed. It’s made him more paranoid and more serious. Any time he flexes that hand his mentor scarred, it’s him reliving at least some part of that memory.)

(Mari has had one fight only really. She’s managed to live most of her life in relative peace beyond that. She originally fled Dravania to escape the war. The old woman she took shelter with in Coerthas was a former dragoon. The woman taught her to fight. However there was a group of knights that later hunted the old woman down and accused her of being a heretic. Mari was told to run, not quite being ready to face a group of skilled knights. But remembering the old woman telling her it was better to love then to hate. So Mari regrets being unable to help the old woman but those interactions with that woman kept her from hating and nursing a grudge.)
