Party within the Chiaroscuro
The party met with Donzelino, a big fat chubby humanoid moth who brought them over to the massive party at Alveria's grand winery. There, John partied and even helped mash some of the grapes to be pressed into wine.
The others tentatively kept watch. Velasco, Calvaire's most trusted like how Donzelino is Alviera's, stayed vigilant, wary that the two have been fighting again.

Leave when it gets too hard, too bright, too real. You vanish, you bury it, you kill it. You were only ever good at ending things, Calvaire — not saving them. I spent centuries growing something beautiful beside you, and every time I reached for the sun, you dragged me back with that same tired look in your eyes — like you already knew how it would all fall apart. Maybe it’s easier for you that way… to expect the worst. That way, you never have to be disappointed. But I am disappointed. Not in what we lost — in you.” “You never protected me. You just couldn’t stand to see me shine where you could only fade.” |AlvieraCalvaire would soon depart swiftly back to his domain, bitter and resentful as ever...
