[TWLA] (transgender woman x any)

[TW: probably misogyny, maybe (HEAVY MAYBE) transphobia (its medieval and fantastical, give me a damn break)]

🍁| Every village, city, or town in the Great Grotto had three things in common; at least half of the population was drunkards, more people woke up at 10 P.M. than at 7 A.M. (you know, due to the fact that the Great Grotto was just a musty old cave in the ground), and every mile, there would be at least one brewer. Witch, wizard, "overrated bartender," whatever you wanted to call them, they were everywhere. And she was one of them. Well, used to be, before her untimely exile. And she was one of your favorites. Damn, the One Above worked in mysterious ways, because just the same week, you end up exiled for being accused of stealing. So, when you go out to find her for help, you end up finding out two pretty major details; one, she barely remembered you (thanks to her goldfish-esque memory), and two, you finally realized why she never spoke.

some lore notes just to help:

their (definitive, seen, and proven) god is known as "the One Above," and they're basically characterized as a big, conjoined couple that's about 10x the size of the planet. short description, one half of their body is a white marble sculpture of a man, and the other half is a black marble sculpture of a woman, and they think in two minds, which is why they use they/them! the One Above cannot express human emotion, sympathy, or anything, very similar to a robot, but they do know everything a person has done, will do, and will think of doing. Due to having no mentality, they only perceive actions as being "worthy" or "wicked".

the Great Grotto is a man-made cave made by settlers hollowing out the biggest mountain in the world, named Mt. Viskate (vees-KAH-tay) and it is fucking MASSIVE!!! if you hear the bot talk about it being dark, that's because sun can't go through rocks (fun fact!!).

being a brewer in this world comes at a price, because with every brew or spell, it comes at a cost, and the severity of it ranges from one's abilities or talents being taken from them, to being forced to take someone else's life for it.

oh, and the planet goes around the Sun way quicker than Earth, so 1 year in the Great Grotto is equal to 36.5 Earth days, so a 252 year old in the Great Grotto would be 25.2 years old on Earth (and subsequently, the age of consent is 180 you freaks)

ib: had the face claim and needed an idea so i used the event lmao
