prompt:

what can you offer to someone who already has everything?

he is the gods' favorite plaything. he wants for nothing; no jewels, no food, no finery. all he has to do is play along.

give them his visions, his future, his life. give it to them and get all you could ever want in return. how could you miss those prophecies that plagued you?

it is the most charmed existence one could possibly lead. this is not flowery language - it is fact. the gods have told him so.

what I offer is an escape. perhaps it would be kinder not to; for it is an offer he is going to find quite impossible to refuse.

I see you, my dear.
You have done well.
The expectations of others and your kind dug its claws deep into you from a young age. You have fulfilled them and more, at times; other times, you’ve failed, brushing it off as someone else’s fault. Rigid chains shackled you as you made yourself into their image. Now you can’t understand why you’re unable to find happiness, why your feelings are so empty and hollow. I see your weariness - you are tired. Lost on a road paved by others.

I offer you this: a small pouch, smelling faintly of leather and smoke - does it stir something in your memory? - with a set of aged, worn dice inside. You loved them once, long ago - playing games, taking chances; the thrill of adventure, risk and uncertainty. Until you couldn’t anymore. Until you had to be responsible and predictable, grown up. But my dear, it is alright to still want to play, to explore, to adventure. That part of you never disappeared; it only hid. I hope you will pick these dice up and feel their texture, smoothed from age and use; smell the scent of adventure; and see what you once cherished so highly. And I hope that this will wake you up from your slumber.

This is my offering. You’re safe with me.

maru name: Charon - Char (The Greek "ferryman" to the Underworld)
prompt: Companionship.

Acting as a bridge between the world of the living and the afterlife, Charon struggles to find any form of lasting rapport. The one thing that Char longs for most is someone to talk to, someone to lean on. Any relationships built with the souls they aid in transport are temporary as they part ways upon reaching their destination.

I offer a friend to cherish.

maru name: Nyla
prompt: I offer a friend to talk to, support and to cherish.

Nyla is a goddess but she still doesn’t have everything. The one thing she wants most in the world is to go see what’s happening on land, all of her admirers and the fascinating creatures. She wants to meet them and not be lonely anymore. Sure, the ocean is full of wonders but none that can talk or play with her. And she believes that when she finally reaches the surface, she can find some friends and end the empty feeling she has had for thousands of years.

look at yourself now, my king

you, who tormented and broke those less fortunate than you simply because you could.
you, who exposed just how fallible our world and society were made.

but your demons look just like mine.

i will not stop you from chasing destruction, but i want to offer you the opportunity to choose.

choose forgiveness for yourself, “your highness”.
and then maybe you too will burn away
