Prepare for the #LodanRespawn2024 Existing characters may choose to be displace from/have memories of different timelines, thereby allowing returning members the option to retcon their whole character. These changes are the result of the "Unnatural Fog" plot device that is running between now and the Respawn. The plot is simple: no matter where your character is, that place is shrouded in a thick fog that suspends time, but not thoughts or memories, so even if they're repeating the same day over and over again, they continue to remember, so each time feels like a new day. For those retconning OCs; this is where new versions of themselves have the opportunity to replace the old versions. Official lore and tree updates will be announced asap
open to Mulven Renehan it had been some time since Rava had seen Mulven , as she made her way towards to his shop with a broken clock that 'got' broken by 'accident' , however that was not the main reason why she was going there , in her bag as well as something she had made, something that Rava wanted to give Mulven to ask something , something that would be impotent and hopefully to chain her life to his in love . she know what she wanted and she wanted to be with Mulven . the only question was would he fully accept her?

He was working hard on some construction order for another play-house for the well-to-do's brats. Apparently his first commission was a huge hit and every little princess wanted her own castle, and every little prince wanted his own fort! Rich people were spoiling their kids and it was ruining them... but Mulven wasn't about to turn away good money so he took the jobs. He wiped sweat from his neck with an old rag and put down his hammer to lean on his work bench. He was filthy, sweaty, and his shirt hung half open - the buttons loose because he wasn't expecting company.
Most of his thoughts up till recently had been consumed with Rava and how to provide for her so that she'd want to be with him. After her close-call that landed her in the doctors hands that one night, Mulven thought she'd stay with him in the safety of his home from then on... turned out he was wrong. Maybe she didn't want to live behind a builders workshop in the merchants district. He had been disappointed when she moved back out and into her own establishment on the sea. But he wasn't defeated, he might be a sore loser, but he wasn't a quiter. He just had to work harder, till he could afford another place, something like a real house. Something better than what she could get for herself. Something worth a woman like Rava.
So he stayed busy with work. So busy they'd hardly seen each other. He'd taken evening strolls down to the boardwalk, just to walk by her pub and peek in the windows to catch a glimpse of her... see that she was doing ok. She was. Which meant he had more to live up to. He went back to work each time, knowing she was a challenge, but a worthy one. The worthiest.
Rava came to the shop door and took a breath , she was ready as she opened the door she walked in " Hello , Mulven~ you here ? " she asked as she looked around the shop , there was a lot of things in his shop that looked like he had been working on , some bits where toys , other where gears and sockets that belonged to things but mainly what got her eye was something on the side that looked like Gears made into a picture frame . she smiled as she continued to look and see what Mulven had been upto . she hopped he was in and was well.

The door bell chimed, meaning he had a customer. He couldn't imagine how... every noble with a child had already put in a custom order, what was left for him to do?? He picked up the rag and wiped his hands before tossing it down and crossing to the door between his store front and the back workshop. "I'm afraid I can't take any more orders to-" Oh... it was her. He stared for a second. She was back, she came to him. Then he remembered himself and began to quickly fumble the buttons on his shirt closed. "S-sorry I was just, just working in the back..." He got himself sorted and brushed down the wrinkles in the front. "Is there anything I can do for you?"
Rava's face brighten up as Mulven came into the front of the shop, he still looked the same , as well as getting a look at his spender, but this was the moment of truth for her "Mulven~, w well i was bring this clock in to see if i could get it r repairs but i..... i wanted to ask you something... something which would make you happy ..o or unhappy .... i if you got got the time " Rave was blushing a bit, though she had to be strong and ask the question and hope for the best .

Why was she blushing? Something was wrong, was she into trouble? He always suspected she was mixed up with trouble, something under the table she didn't want to tell him about. He came around the counter quickly and reached for her, holding on to both sides of her shoulders and bending down to look into her eyes. "What ever it is Rava, you can trust me, I can help you... I can do more than just fix a broken clock you know..." He tried to smile, but he was concerned this might be something serious.
as she breathed in Rava Reached into her bag as she begin to talk "do you remember the day we met , you where something else , like a star in my eyes , now eye at the time , you looked amazing and i came on to you a bit too much since i only arrived that time" she said as bringing up memories of the past year " i also remember be carried by you when you and Iku saved my life , and i know i could never fully repay that back , you made me feel like a person and i fell for you even more to the point i want you in my life with me~"
rava then pulled out a bracelet that was golden with leafs and trees and flowers on it with words engraved into the top that has his name on it, it looked different of the one she was wearing that she got from him " d do you remember back at Christmas, and you got me the bracelet ... w...well... where i came from a bracelet it ..... a kin to a engagement ring when given by someone you love the most ... and .... i wanted to ask you a as it something Ca a'lla girls do to .. " she said as she slowly got down on her knees holding up the bracelet ring to him " Mulven ...va a ser mi marido y casarse conmigo? .... you will marry me~?.."
"Rava I..." He didn't know about the bracelet tradition. Queens! And he'd gone through so much trouble to get her a ring. He looked back over his shoulder at the coat on the rack. In its pocket was the costly thing. He scratched the back of his head and gave a nervous laugh. "I didn't know about the Ca a'lla traditions Rava. But in this country, the man asks the woman, not the other way around." His face was burning a bright red. He had probably never blushed so hard before in his whole life. If one thing was true about Mulven from birth till death, he was always concerned about his reputation. And his reputation as a man was on the line.
She meant well but.... He stared at her brave, soul-bearing eyes... and he cursed. "frak Rava, stay right there. Dont. move. ok?" He held out his hands like he was trying to convince a wild deer not to leap away. Once he was sure she wouldn't run out the door crying or else rush forward and flog him, he walked backwards, carefully to his coat, and retrieved the small black box.
Rava was blushing in shock as she told to not the move as Mulven when to get his coat , what was he doing? was he standing up on her? or was he trying to do something that would be romantic by pulling out something for her?, she hopped he would try to propose to her while she was trying to propose to him so then it would become a little love argument that would be a story, all Rava could Do was wait and see what Mulven was doing.
He turned to face her with his hands - and the gift - held behind his back. He checked her expression to make sure she was still alright and not about to break down or lose her temper. She looked.... excited? How could she be excited already? Did she see it? Does she know?
...Why was he still nervous? Clearly she wanted to marry him, so what was he still afraid of? Just ask the question and wait for the 'yes'. He cleared his throat and walked a few feet forward.
"Rava, I..." His voice strained in his throat, his throat closed up from nervousness. He cleared it again. "I know that you're smart, independent, capable, secure, and typically better at taking care of yourself than I could even take care of you.." he gave a self-depreciating laugh. "But it would be my privileged and honor... Rava... if you would let me try. I promise to give you everything, do everything I can to be whatever you need, I will never give up on you, on us. Rava... I'm a better man already because of you. I work harder, I push myself further, I see a brighter future with you."
He got down on one knee and moved the box out from behind his back. He opened it and revealed the gift inside.
"Would you make me the happiest man in Lodan, by becoming Mrs. Rava Renehan?"
Now it happen as the ring was showen and mulven asked the question it made Rava blush as its was almost picturesque ~ oh how wounderful ~ except one thing . The they where both kneeling holding out there ring and bracelet , with Rava on both her knees and Mulven on one knee , they both looked silly and anyone who would have walked in would have asked if this was an Art exhibit.
Well someone had to fold and Rava had to be the one. " Mulven yes ~!" And with that she lunches herself at him into a hug and a romantics kiss, this was her dream come true for her. Now there was only one question . Rava still had the bracelet , would Mulven take it ?

There was an awkward moment where she didn't do anything, just stared. "Uh,... you can move now..." He said a bit uncertainly. Did she really freeze in place? Then she snapped out of it, shouting Mulven Yes! and leaping on him. Relief flooded his senses and he stood up, picking her up in the process and kissing her back. When they stopped and he sat her back down on her feet he reached for her hand, removed the bracelet from her hold, and slipped the ring on her finger.
It was like a dream come true , though it felt a bit odd to be receiver but Rava was happy as Mulven slipped the ring on her finger , it felt she was maiden who just been steeped off her feet by her knigh she stayed in his arms as she smiled with the intoxicating feeling of love inside her wanting him and know she is his now but still wanting him more "ummm~ is there a bed in this shop?~" she asked hoping that he both would be in same mood .

He broke away from her to give a heartfelt laugh. "Don't tell me you forgot?" She had stayed with him once, in his little apartment in the back of the shop, back when she was recovering from that injury. Right before she took off and set up a pub on the shore. There had been a time once, when he'd waited on her hand and foot, always checking her forehead for fever, bringing her soup, and watching her sleep like an angle under his covers.
"Sorry am forgetful " Rava said as she took his hand as they went to find the bed. a few minutes later after finding the bedroom Rava as soon as they entered she Rolled into Mulvens arms and began to kiss him deeper this time as her arms wrapped around his neck as she begged him "por favor tome~, hazme tuyo~"
