Emotional Ties

Creatures & places of the Isles which hold personal meaning for this character.

Kova

The light of my life, the one who got me through the darkest hours when I so wanted to just give up. I wouldn’t be here without him, as sure as branch and bough, and I know he’ll be with me no matter what. He’s going to be such an amazing dad!

Midge

They say that, much like the threads of the mushrooms, Granny Midge winds her way through everything that happens in the Woods. They say that, when Mom and ‘Delia were fading away, that it was her who made sure the doctors and speakers and such made their way here. All I know is, she’s been kind and a hardass to me in equal measure, and I wouldn’t be where I’ve gotten to without her (or her spines up my backside).

Meet Midge

Mom & 'Delia

I miss them so much. At first it was like drowning, struggling every day with such an immense deadfall of feeling that I wished it would just crush me, that I could just let go. Nowadays… it still hurts just as much, and the weight of that old tree isn’t any lighter. But I can get up in the mornings, and that will have to be enough.

Mycorzha

An idyllic place, I heard one of the visiting healers say once, some odd Beyonder from up in the city. Maybe so, but every flower has its shadow, and every tree goes down deep into the dark. The Isles are beautiful, that’s true, but they’re no miracle or paradise. They’re just home.

Bio

The Rubeus family is one of the older clans of Hazelmoss, and over the seasons and various misfortunes dwindled away until all that remains is the last remaining scion, Hercules Rubeus Bramblecup. Hercules, or “Herc” to some, grew up in a warm and happy home, and if it was small (consisting of only him, his mother, and his sister), still it never lacked for support or the camaraderie of the local community, who pulled together to make sure that Hercules’s mother never lacked assistance in the raising of her children. Nothing, however, could have prepared the family or their community for the disaster that was to come.
