Lambent's voice is deep and measured, and Dragana stirs to look at her mate. He's sitting across the chamber from her, by the mirror she never uses. She knows better than to speak when he's contemplative like this, so she watches as he reaches out a claw to the mirror. She knows he's not seeing his reflection. It is a trial, she thinks, that most Neutralised Ghouls endure. She has saved what ones she can - she is a Mercy, one of the oldest, and she has a power from that that very few do. Not all Mercies can infect their Neutralised kin, can string that new rope between their hollow core and the goddess they seek, but the eldest, like her, can. For some reason, it doesn't work with Lambent. She wishes she knew why. "They called it a cure," he says across the room. "They called it a cure for Ghoulhood, for failure. But I never wanted it. I never asked for it. It is no cure." No. No it isn't. It is a severance from their goddess' will, from her power and her plague. It is a denial of all they are and all they sought - it might cure disease, might strip back infection, but those were a Necromancer's stock in trade, not something to be so wantonly denied and destroyed. Necromancers say there are just the three trials, but they are biased in all their strength, biased to only look at what they have experienced and at what their nearest kin have failed. There is the Trial of Wraiths, to discover in what domain their power now lies. There is the Trial of Ghouls, to maintain sanity against creeping madness. There is the Trial of the Neutralised, to find connection where connection has been destroyed. "There is a cure for this," Lambent says quietly. "But it does not work on me. Whatever Necromancer neutralised me, they burned any hope of bond to ash." She knows the words he says next. She has heard them said so many times. "I am as I am. This is what is." Slowly he turns from the mirror, paces across the room, and settles beside her, curling his head overtop of hers, letting her press her face to her neck. She cannot cure him of this pain, not utterly, cannot change a circumstance that neither of them want - but there is a fleeting cure for this fleeting melancholy, and that she can offer. "Lambent," she says, her claws a gently trail down his forearm. "Yes," he replies. They've done this so many times they do not need to say more. Dragana presses her teeth to his toxic flesh and feeds. There is no plague in him to strengthen her. His toxins are such that she must struggle. But his blood is hot and warm and freely given and as she feeds it to the hollow within herself that ever hungers for life and blood and plague, Lambent relaxes, all his sorrow eased. He cannot have a connection himself any longer. But she can give him a part of hers.

Largely mute. He can speak but due to just. Messy trauma, he has trouble speaking to anyone but Dragana. Communicates to anyone else via sign language; his harpy familiar interprets for him. Was neutralised when borderline feral and the process killed the neutralising necromancer. Consequently he wandered, eventually hearing of Dragana, who was mistaken for a ghost of a necromancer. He thus followed stories of her to Tethys' clan, asking after a necromancer, only to be told there were many. Nonetheless Dragana agreed to join the others meeting him and both had an Oh No Theyre Hot moment. They've increasingly built friendship, over time and are genuinely close and care deeply for one another. Lambent has no plague for the Mercys to eat and is curiously resistant to the Mercy plague hunger; he has not been infected, even though he'd not be opposed to being made a Mercy: he misses the bond to the Plaguebringer.

From Dragana:

Lambent | Mate Lambent does not talk to most others. He rarely even signs. But with Dragana - well. He finds it easier with Dragana. He knows, with Dragana, he is understood, and Dragana endeavours to make sure he never feels so alone again as he did when she first found him.
