And Fam - Tumblr Posts
Girldad and Girlmom... Their son? Drawing constellations in a book somewhere.
Urtika and Herzadra on the left, Adoxa and Aspa on the right. Herz and Aspa always had a strained marriage, with their children being a source of further tension but also their greatest joy.
Herz spoils 'Tika rotten, but Aspa is the one responsible for all the hard work of raising her. Adoxa and her twin brother Aster grew up without Herz around, as he was managing the wars his half-siblings started.
They never got the love and attention they deserved from him, but Aspa did her best and they love her unconditionally.
Of course, all of them sided with her in the divorce. Further notes under the cut.
Okay so, Urtika takes a lot after her dad in looks, but she's also incredibly confident and outspoken and pigheaded (mostly thanks to his spoiling lol). She liked her mom... less, growing up, but as an adult she can truly appreachiate her.
Both Aspa and Herz agree that Urtika should never meet her grandfather.
Aspa is a master weaver and craftswoman, she has decade spanning projects and weaves tapestries that can wrap around a whole castle, and incredibly detailed. She was a bit more chill with the edjucation of Adoxa and Aster, and spents a lot of time with Adoxa, who is fascinated by her mothers craftsmanship and later becomes a great craftswoman herself.
Still, when Adoxa comes out as a transwoman later in live, her mother breifly stuggles to accept her. These elves are... very conservative, but she eventually comes around.
To her father, Adoxa only writes, as she does not care for his opinion. He rarely even looks them in the eye. But he replies swiftly with:
"Adoxa, My daughter, My love, all is well."
Which, in part, upsets her, because this is not the parent she wants that easy acceptance from.
Here's the family tree lol:
