Hello.

This is The Knight.

I wish to talk about families.

What is your family like? Do you have siblings? I have many siblings. More siblings than there are moonblessed. One of them is here with me. They are also a knight. They were one long before I was, and they are very good at it.

I have a child. They were not born by mating, as humans do, but by a dance with myself and my friend Grimm. It was part of an important ritual.

My Father is a King. My Mother is a Tree. Also a Queen.

That is all of my family. Please tell me about yours.

And good riddance.

Have you paid much notice to the Were Ware shop? They have some interesting merchandise.

Your mom's a tree? How the hell does that work?

[dreamnailedit]

I have not.

What did you find there?

[nipzips]

is she a talking tree [ that's somehow the first thing he thinks to ask ]

[dreamnailedit]

It makes it hard for her to do things.

But she is good at having children.

[dreamnailedit]

Yes, she can speak. Very well in fact.

And she has much knowledge to share.

[hagrides]

The Ware Wolf shop sells a number of items, but the one that caught my eye was the Super Summonrock Chalk. It allows a person to summon one magical item from their home.

Would the Grimmchild charm qualify, I wonder?

[nipzips]

oh, okay. that's nice to know.

i was thinking it'd be really sad if you couldn't connect with your own mom

[gotdreams]

Just sproutin' them off or something? Are you guys part tree too?

[it still amazes him, the conversations these places inspire]

[justsomeshrimp]

It definitely wouldn't hurt to keep an eye out.
Best to be prepared.
You mentioned your mother was a tree?
Would it be difficult for her too?

[She...wonders how that works but she'll keep that thought to herself. Magic or God powers or something of that ilk, she supposes.]

[dreamnailedit]

I was unaware of this.

We must try.

[Must. For their child.]

[dreamnailedit]

It would be difficult to bring her to the moons.

But if we could get her into the gardens, she would do well.

I do not know how we would do that.

[Then again, her roots probably couldn't dig into the rocks of the moons, so that might help.]

[dreamnailedit]

She is somewhat difficult to visit.

The Queen's Gardens are very dangerous.

[dreamnailedit]

I do not know how my siblings and I are born.

Perhaps once, but now we are the Void.

[nipzips]

if she's your mom, why would she make it difficult for you to see her?

[dreamnailedit]

I do not think the Gardens were always that way.

But Hallownest fell long ago.

[nipzips]

this a halloween thing? sounds kinda dramatic

[dreamnailedit]

I do not know what Halloween is. Hallownest is the kingdom I come from.

[hagrides]

We must and we will.

As they were in your care last, perhaps you should be the one to make the purchase? I will cover my share of the cost, of course.

[dreamnailedit]

I will do this.

I do not have much I wish to spend Chroma on, anyway.

This, however, is very important.

[hagrides]

It would be unfair if I did not contribute. They are our child.

[gotdreams]

[whew this is way above his pay grade. just gonna roll with it and pretend he gets it. fuckin superb you funky little knight]

Way beyond human then, got it.

I don't have any family.

[givemewings]

I have a twin sister.

She’s amazing, especially compared to me. Beautiful, multi-talented, brilliant...

It’s as if she got every single good gene and I got all of the bad ones.

I’m happy to take that on for her, though.

[nipzips]

oh ... okay [ wait. ]

dude, your whole kingdom fell?? that's awful

[dreamnailedit]

Yes, that is true.

I am sure you have much Chroma, Grimm.

Anyone would want to dance with you.
