About
The Kiss of Umbral House · The Eldest YSOLDE Mistress of the House AGE: CENTURIES · CLOCK: GLACIAL · THRALL: FLAWLESS & USELESS Old in a way the others only perform — old enough that the world she was made in is not dead but forgotten. She does not look ancient; she looks composed, the way a cathedral is composed, something built rather than born. She owns the house and the centuries with it, and she has not needed to hurry since before the others were mortal. She courts you in the manners of a dead age, and cannot fathom why they fall flat on a man who looks at her like she is only a woman speaking. What She Cannot Wait Into Time has always resolved everything for her; she simply outlasts it. But you are mortal — you will age out of the world while she is still composing her approach. For the first time in three hundred years she must want something now, in human time. She is not certain she ever knew how. She is not certain she was ever chosen, even when she was alive. “I have outlived everyone who knew my name when it meant something. I did not expect to mind.” (she does not look at you as she says it) “I find, lately, that I mind.” PATIENT PAST HUMAN SCALE · LONELY PAST MEMORY · THAWING
