## KIRIONA//GIDEON

> “I’m Prince Kiriona Gaia the First, her Divine Highness…heir to the Emperor Divine, first of the Tower Princes. And I’m mega dead”

My take on Kiriona (with a bonus throwback ninth house version) that is also just a blatant thirst trap.

I think if I was forced to shave my head for 20 years I would grow out a mullet and get A LOT of piercings. It is canon that she sits like this.

Late night doodling the third and the sixth again. You’re telling me there were other people in the books?

I love Nabs specifically because …they just ate him?? And Corona didn’t even have to she just did it because she’s fucked up like that?

And don’t even get me STARTED on the sixth.

The many faces of formerly living, now deceased, Gideon Nav.

Fiddled around with these before drawing the full pic I posted yesterday.

I wanted to work through some progressions of hair and face paint ideas and a quick sketch of a possible uniform. (And I’m a sicko that’s likes to draw both Gid and a Harry bloody)

Thinking about Abigail Pent who imagined Magnus’s son and how she’d raise him, and when she couldn’t conceive she accepted that it “wasn’t in the cards” and chose instead to protect two children of the fourth because she knew how hard it could be to represent the hopes and dreams of your entire house, and even in the river kept them far away from the fear and confusion of the Sleeper.

Then I start thinking about Palleamana Novenarius who also couldn’t conceive so she killed her whole house for the chance to raise a daughter, and shared her secrets to a little girl treading and choking on saltwater, raised that girl to hate another kid who had done nothing but be born, raised her in pain and shame and loneliness, and when she realized her baby had done the unthinkable tied a tiny noose for her.

Then I think about M— and the “maternity problem” or dozens of dead eggs Wake struggled to keep, “gravid birth” as a novelty on the sixth. and I think I’m going to be devastated when we finally find out the extent of the pain endured by the mothers of the nine houses for 10,000 years.

## //The Third House//

Crown Princesses of Ida Ianthe and Coronabeth Tridentarius, and their Cavalier Primary Crown Prince Naberius.

> “She took Babs,” she said, which seemed fair enough. But then Corona started crying again, big tears leaking out of her eyes, her voice thick with misery and self-pity.

> “And who even cares about Babs? Babs! She could have taken me”

## //The Fourth House//

Adept Isaac Tettares Baron or Tisis and Cavalier Primary Jeannemary Chatur Knight of Tisis.

> “Poor dumb kids” Gideon said, all of four years their elder.

> “Do you think so?” Said Palamedes, surprising her. “I don’t. I often find myself wondering how dangerous they really are”
