Niya starts her day with a little youthful vandalism.
Having been woken up at the crack of dawn by her dear mother, she feels good about this.
She's supposed to be watching her little brother, Tiuten, and escorting him to the market to pick up some Earth-tech. He's twelve and more than capable of going by himself. So she sends him on his way and instead finds herself with a bucket full of paint, a blank wall and a vision.
Her mother is going to be furious... she can hardly wait.
"Niya, what are you doing here? Are you not supposed to tak- What did you just do to the wall? Mother is going to be furious!"
"Yes, I supppse so. Maybe I should add a little more detail? Then I could upgrade from furious to an actual full blown rage fit."
"Rude. Don't you want to add a little Dal flavour? I'm sure you've got a couple magical tricks up your sleeve that could really make this thing pop."
"Yes. I'm definitely sure. Why are you doing this? Is this a special occasion?"
"I'm kidding, Guli. I'm pretty sure he just sprung into his evil existance fully formed. Thus, no birthday."
"Yes that sounds like an accurate description of past events. In that case, why the sudden remodeling?"
"Oh! You didn't hear the great fucking news! I'm getting married!"
Aaand more paint goes on the wall in a very agressive manner.
"Ah, too bad that I'm not an initiate yet and can't celebrate the ceremony."
He does not believe her.
"Oh, that's terrible. Maybe we'll just have to cancel the whole thing! Mother and the whole fucking Vaesteri clan are going to be so devestated."
"Niya..."
That is Guli's conciliatory tone where he tries to convince her to see from their parents' perspective.
She notices the sincerity and stops painting. "They can't do this to me. I don't want it."
Sigh. "I did try to tell her that the subsequent separation would be worse to our reputation, but yes."
"Chill, Guli. Nothing drastic. I'm just going to demonstrate to the Vaesteri boy that I am not the girl for him."
"Try to not scare him for life. Is not like he is getting much choice on the matter."
