A haunting reflection.
He bears the face of a friend lost; the very same who once showed me kindness when I was a hatchling.
...That is all he shares.
A twisted doppelganger of the one who gave me reason to live, here for my head.
The pristine vestments, the magic, the ire in his voice, they are nothing like him; there is no light in those eyes, so much like mine.
I see it reflected; envy.
Hot off the heels of a very recent session, let's say some... revelations were made, and consequences were met, regarding a choice Iliph had made earlier.
[A summary for those who are interested]
The city of Luyarnha isn't kind to folks of dragon blood, mutations are usually certain to follow, and my poor 'bold was given the option to turn over a tome retrieved from an earlier excursion to a strange specter, in exchange for the removal of an odd bump that had begun to form at his chest. Insert a cryptic tale about a pair of siblings, one rejects the other to be free, and the one rejected knows of this hatred and suffers for it.
Well... Iliph obliged, and the bump went away. The specter left some parting words, that this 'brother' Iliph had rejected? It had known now with this decision, 'Iliph hated [him].'
None the wiser we all were, of course. Well about that.
A recent mission had us traveling to a small village on the outskirts, and all the while our party seemed to have been getting stalked and watched by something, something almost too fast to catch; something green. All the way from the city of Luyarnha, to this village, through the surrounding woodland and through this eldritch temple, and finally at it's peak does our stalker reveal itself as Iliph's 'brother', the same he'd rejected.
Who so conveniently looks like his old childhood friend, with green eyes both like his and, y'know, coincidentally fitting the theme of him being named envy.
He's out for Iliph's head, tried to pull an offer to the party of swapping places with him, in exchange for killing Iliph. They didn't accept of course.
Let's just say the battle didn't go well for us.. and it was more survive and try not to die, because he seemed to be on a time limit to how long he could be fighting us. And just before he was whisked back to where he came from, he wailed on Iliph... and cut off his left arm.
So yeah, that's the state of things right now. Expect another image sooner or later featuring a more true-to-present Iliph. Because he is not having a good time with this green bastard.
Also fun fact, I took two things from Iliph's artwork for his 'brother' here, try and guess what they are!
