The Lady had been sleeping for a long time, much longer than she had realized. With the God of Time, her master, having disappeared, she had been in slumber. As such, the way of words and social niceties were a little lost on her, and her patience was paper thin. Still, the creature understood more about Mauja than she believed he knew about himself. The snow beast leaned forward, eyeing him with ancient intensity in her crystalline, blue eyes.

"Do you know who you are?" She asked again, her tone slightly clipped. Then, she sighed roughly. "Your purpose, your reason for being, the metaphysical and existential reason for your existence in this universe as we know it in this precise time - do you know who you are?" The creature asked again, giving only a slight pause this time. Surely, he did not know. These mortals took their entire lives to find their purpose, and usually that purpose was only one, clear moment.

The white, antlered one offered her a thank you, and the creature smiled. "Manners - you are a gem," she said with a smile. With a breath of the deepest cold, the Lady leaned forward and pressed her furry lips to Arah's forehead, leaving in her place of bright, glowing, silver star. The Lady did not know if the mark would fade or linger as that was entirely up to her heart.

Now, her gaze returned to Mauja. "You are destined for more than you aspire, Lord of Frost," she said quietly. "Irma is able to guide you, but your heart requires another guide." She smiled and stood, leaning forward to press her furry lips to a point just below his horn, leaving a similar mark, but this one cracked down the front of his face like a stripe. What she left on him was more than just a mark.

"Were I you, I would seek another life guide, a companion, I think you call them."


[[
Arah has received a glowing, silver star marking! This marking can be permanent or temporary, depending on what you want <3

As a congratulations for the dedication and hard work that neo has put into her fantastic character, Mauja, he has been granted the ability to bond to another companion.

The lady will stick around to answer more questions and engage in more dialogue if you want!
