I'll walk the lands with my trusty sidekick, Lela the skeleton. Weapon focus: broom.
I see a tragic romance as Lela comes out of her daze to find the chivalrous and wonderful Metus supporting her every step.
At first there's only bits and pieces of memory. A knight in black chasing a kobald away from her legs, that same knight preventing a half-orc from trying out the bread bones recipe.
His is the first face she sees. The first hand to stop her incessant sweeping in years. She begins to focus on him more and more. He's not annoyed by her sweeping. After all, sometimes she just can't stop herself. He just stands by patiently and waits for her to regain control. He always waits, no matter how long it takes. His confidence in her is astounding.
He teaches her of the glory of Wee Jas and she learns well. Coming to venerate the Lady of Death and Magic as he does. As the fallen Vek once did. They work together to do her will and bring about her goals.
But in the end, their love is nothing but that. Lela has no lips for the passionate kiss of true love. And, though they can marry, children will never come from their union. They must be content in their love alone and pray that, one day, Wee Jas will see fit to bless them in a way that only she can--in her own due time.
Oh, and Tsunami can come too.
