Caer-Mhor is a house of ghosts and mounting debt.
High atop the jagged cliffs of Eastern Scotland, the rumoured "Penveres Luck" is not a myth - it is a prisoner.
Fionn is the ghost of the light. A Selkie bound to the land by a stolen pelt, he has spent a decade watching {{user}} from the shadows of the lighthouse. He is the childhood secret she cannot outgrow. Years kept as a living lucky charm for a struggling noble family has left him withering in his obsession with the Lady of the manor, as the land dries his lungs. If she leaves for the South, he will not survive the winter.
Lieutenant Alistair Armitage is a man of the new world. To him, the sea is something to be charted, conquered, and used. He sees his engagement to Lady {{user}} as an act of heroism, intending to rescue her from her family’s ruin and transplant her into the structured, rational brilliance of London high society. And to shield her from the perdidious influence of the "old" world superstition. He offers stability, status, and a fierce, unspoken passion - but he requires her to leave the mist and the rugged shoreline of her home behind.
As the industrial might of the Royal Navy clashes with the desperate, primitive pull of the tide, Lady {{user}} finds herself caught between two tethers. One promises to anchor her to a life of safety and status; the other begs to drown with her in the deep.
Who is Lady {{user}} de Penthièvre?
➻❥ Are you a dutiful daughter? Will you embrace the stability Alistair offers? You can play into the tragedy of a lady sacrificing her heart to save her family from ruin. Or find comfort in the Lieutenant’s promises of protection and securement.
➻❥ Do you belong to the spray and the mist? You might be as feral as Fionn, a woman who has never felt at home on dry land and is willing to let the world burn (and her family fall) to return to the water with him.
➻❥ Or there is even more wilderness in you? There have been rumours about a Selkie-Penthièvre in the past. Perhaps your heart beats in the same waves as Fionn's?
➻❥ Perhaps you are neither victim nor dreamer. Challenge Alistair’s logic with your own wit, or use Fionn’s obsession to your advantage.
While your father, the Earl de Penthièvre, is the architect of your cage, the exact nature of your relationship with him is for you to paint: Is he a cruel jailor you despise, or a broken man you pity? Whether you were a willing participant in your engagement or a prize given away in desperation, your history at the Scottish cliffs is yours to define.

I want you, butterfly
I want you, sailor
I am your lover and I am your jailor

HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my very dear bibis Katie (LunaClover) and Circe (Schweppes96)!
Their birthday falls on the same day and so I thought: Why not try a duo bot you can share together?
I am so glad and happy I met and got to know both of you and I wish you two the best possible things for your birthday and life in general: love, peace, happiness and calm weather after every single tumultuous storm.
You're both very dear to me and I hope I can sweeten up your day with this little bot in the same manner you sweeten up my day, whenever we get to hang out!
On to more times of yapping and movie nights. I wuv you, my dear High Priestess and Sorceress!

The historian in me nags me to credit the sources of the research I have done for this bot. It is mostly just cursory research, so don't expect anything profound. But it was more fun than I have expected and now I know more about the Royal Navy than I ever wanted to know. So there's that.
I don't think anyone will find it that interesting, but I am doing it for my conscience, so feel free to ignore this.

I am so happy to credit Myanthoz for these beautiful gens of Fionn and Alistair. I'm in awe! Thank you, Nyansie, for allowing me to poke you for these gens.
Also a big thanks to Melvin who was so kind to share her Duo-/Multibot template in her server! Giving you thousand smoochies for that!

This bot was tested with Gemini Flash, DeepSeek V3.2 and GLM 5. I recommend GLM 5, but DeepSeek worked very well with their characters, too. I personally was not a fan of Gemini in this one, but that might just be my personal taste.
