What do you get when two ruthless assassins raise their daughter travelling through the wildest reaches of Caido? Take one look at Theea and you'll get a pretty good idea. Cheerful and tenacious in equal measure, and curious beyond all else, she began her journey on a mission to find those her mother once called family. And find them she did, soon rubbing elbows with demigods, leaders and even ghosts from the past. Her determination is resolute, her thirst for knowledge unmatched. We can't wait to see where her next adventure takes her!
Congratulations, Theea!

"Alright," Ronin announces, his tone not dissimilar to the way he'd address soldiers when training them - and it doesn't help that he paces a slow line before Remi, like a drill sergeant giving orders, "the rules are this." Eyebrow raise for emphasis. "No shifting. No magic. No cheating. This is a good, old fashioned game of extreme tag through the Greatwood. And if you break the rules, husband, I will know."
He points to a pale dragon lurking in the rich, leafy boughs above. "Because she will snitch on you." Grinning, he turns to face the dense woodland. "We'll take a route through the Wildwood, then move to the Stone Symphony, and then finally end up in Sidhe. And if we find anything on the way? Well, that's just all for the better, isn't it?"
Rubbing his hands together and rolling his shoulders, Ronin reaches into his pocket to withdraw a battered coin with a ship engraved on one side, and a kraken on the other. "Sails or suckers? Loser is it."

Remi watches Ronin pace with an expression that’s one part indulgent, two parts amused. His arms are folded loosely across his chest, curls a little damp still from their walk, the sunlight sliding lazily across his shoulders through the dappled canopy above. "Mmm, no shifting, no magic, no cheating," he echoes, mouth twitching into a smirk. "And...the penalty for cheating? Or, being caught treating, rather??" At this, the Bastion glances up towards Sugar, tilting his head and winking conspiratorially in her direction.
Still, he pushes off from the tree he’s leaning on, sauntering forward with the easy, grounded grace of someone who knows the Wildwood by the sound of its breathing. Remi's eyes flick to the coin but not before drifting over Ronin first—slowly, with no attempt at subtlety. "Suckers of course," he hums, low and warm. "Let’s see which of us is going to be chasing the other through the woods like a lovesick teenager."
Remi offers his hand to catch the coin toss, grin wide and golden. "And for the record," he adds, voice dropping a touch as he steps a little closer, "if you catch me, I’m not going quietly."

"I have every faith in Sugar to catch any nefarious deeds that might take place out here," Ronin says confidently, despite his companion's track record for fucking not when it comes to anything he asks of her. Pretending not to notice the way his husband's eyes rove over him, it's with a sly and amused, "of course," that Ronin gives the coin a practiced flip, watching it spin and twinkle through the air before landing square in Remi's palm.
A ship.
"Sails it is," the Knight purrs, stepping back and offering a small, roguish bow of apology. "We both know you love to chase me, at least. And we both know that I love to run. And for the record," he adds, taking another step back as Remi prowls forward, "we both know you've never come quietly a day in your life."
Without further ado, Ronin turns on heel and sprints off into the undergrowth, footsteps impossibly light, the branches stirring in his wake.

Remi’s grin curves crooked and slow, the kind of expression that comes with years of knowing exactly how much he’s going to enjoy the next few minutes. His eyes flick toward Sugar with faux solemnity, nodding as if they’re co-conspirators rather than the ones being watched. "Oh, I’ve no doubt she’ll catch any nefarious deeds," he muses aloud. "It’s whether she’ll snitch that remains to be seen. His fingers close around the coin, gaze lifting just in time to catch the bow, the wink, the turning heel.
"So that’s it then?" he calls, feigning affront as the Knight disappears into the trees. "No mention of what happens if I break the rules? No dramatic threats? No stakes?" He gives a shrug, palms up, as if the decision has been made for him. "Well. That’s practically permission."
With no one left to hear but Sugar, Remi sucks in a breath and theatrically bellows after the vanishing figure, "ONE ONE-HUNDRED. TWO ONE-HUNDRED." His voice rings through the trees like the start of some ancient forest ritual before he glances up at Sugar, eyes gleaming, and grins at the dragon. "It’ll be more fun for everyone if I cheat. You know it. I know it."
And with that, he’s off, trailing laughter and low-slung leaves in his wake as he bolts into the undergrowth like a boy chasing the sun.

"I guess you'll just have to break them and find out!" Ronin calls back, his voice echoing through the undergrowth - just - as he departs through the trees, committing to the bit in so much as he doesn't hold back when it comes to agility. Sugar, for her part, offers a smug little snort of cool air, and she swoops down to coil herself lovingly around Remi's shoulders, before sticking a cold snout into his ear and taking off again.
That's dragon, by the way, for I ain't no grass.
And so as his voice rings clear and true through the woods, the forest answers. Not with any voice of its own, you understand, but if trails open and reveal precisely where the White Knight has headed, complete with footprints and the lingering scent of his cologne on the air, well. It's not cheating if it's not Remi doing it now, is it?
