Basically It's Somewhere Between Sacrificing Power And Preserving Herself/the Person She Wants To Be - Tumblr Posts

riko mori is an unstoppable force--girl literally becomes a god then gives up the power to make sure humanity gets equal access to magic bc she's trying to rectify the mistakes of a selfish god and the effect it has on inequality around their world not that it's her job to fix his mistakes--but she sees the consequences and decides she will be a better god than he ever was plus she's a brilliant magician in her own right--and she doesn't want to give up her humanity ultimately she's the only person capable of absorbing that much power and then letting it go to benefit the people she loves and so she grows past the need to prove herself--she knows her worth and she doesn't need to prove it to anyone basically it's somewhere between sacrificing power and preserving herself/the person she wants to be arodryn is an immovable object his spine is tempered with steel also liadria the pirate king is somewhat of an immovable object she protects her people first and foremost and gods help you if you cross her kingdoms have tried everything to get rid of her but she's so good at inspiring loyalty that it never works the best they've managed is to drive her off the main continent--but they can't kill her influence for better or for worse
