A Mage Reborn, Book Two (WIP) - UPDATED April 5th, 2025 | Book One Released!

My mage would probably the few here who will hear Leon out and probably be happy to see both Ilya and Saine again. My MC is quite empathetic and probably too forgiving. :sweat_smile:

I have a mage who’d probably treat the three of them like nothing ever happened just to fuck with them. Like straight up, “Hi Leon! Sorry for the long vacation. Why are ya looking so glum? C’mon, Ilya, I have lots of stories to tell you! Saine, I have a burning question for you-!”"

It’s not that they’re not bitter, far from it, they just think this is one of the most painful ways they could act and they are taking the opportunity for a small bit of revenge. :sweat_smile:

It’d probably also be their small test of character to see if any of them (particularly Leon) would actually admit to what happened.

I absolutely love the avenues of screwing with them. Tack on an “Oh you might have met my twin at some point while I was away, how are they anyways?” just to seal the deal

“I remember our last conversation like it was yesterday, ‘MC, one day I’m gonna go down in history, I’m gonna go out in a blaze of glory, and everyone will love me for the amazing things I do. They’ll cheer my name as I’m paraded through the streets I tell ya.’ I wonder how that’s panning out.”

MCs who have scarred faces can’t pull this prank, unfortunately. :smiling_face_with_tear:

My MC would be nauseatingly forgiving about all of it. Like, absolute fucking saint about it. I mean “you’ve done nothing that needs my forgiveness my friends” levels of nice (albeit, all in their characteristically antisocial, silent, and blunt ways), which I feel would hurt more than anger ever could…

I think what he did the the characters and there reaction to your death was pretty good, especially ilya and how she started to hate the sky lol

MC: “Oh, this scar?” Points at their face “I got it around four years ago when a bandit jumped at me and slashed my face with his cutlass. I guess my twin was lucky they weren’t traveling with me back then.”

Leon, Ilya & Saine: Think back on the Bandits Camp mission from around four years ago “By Jove! They are so identical they even suffered from the same injuries around the same time! But wait. How are they still alive when (MC’s name) is dead?”

MC: Pretends to be the twin of the MC and mortally wounds Ante and slowly tortures her to death

Ante: Screams in pain “It wasn’t personal! I was just doing my job!”

MC: “Oh, this is personal, pest! I heard you’re the one who is responsible for my twin’s death.”

Hidden Platonic Option: MC’s identical twin sibling who has the opposite of their magical skills (IE if Mage sucks at Enchantment but is 1 step away from becoming the ruler of all Liches they’re an Enchanting Genius who can’t use Spiritism to save their life) and has disconcertingly identical experiences to the MC but swears they aren’t The Mage.

“Hey guys this is my twin sibling, NMC.”
“???”

Ante:
points at the MC’s original body “You’re the Mage!”
points at resurrected MC “You’re the Mage!”
points at NMC “You’re the Mage!”
points at herself “I’m the Mage! Are there any more of you I should know about?!”
Sunblind/Vision Mage:
“Meow.”

Okay hold up.

Was Ante’s flagrant distrust of us because she had a huge green eyed monster because we were in a position to be closer to Leon than she was, regardless of our actual interests?

I’ve always thought that it was just paranoia of this strange nobody who is extremely powerful, appears out of nowhere, and starts befriending the Royals

Add that we say we’re related to the person who just committed regicide to boot. I’m still of the camp she had every reason to be suspicious of us. Someone had to be.

Previous king of Param would have been enough imho. Just not fond of dying, that’s all :melting_face:

You guys occasionally make me feel normal for my plans towards Leon only being treating him as a stranger. My mage loves Ilya and treats Saine like the little brother they never had. But Leon destroyed any friendship. No elaborate revenge plots, just a cold shoulder. To quote a certain batman actor “you and I are done professionally”.
