Personality

Semper fidelis. it may be the Marine motto, but Circe embodies the ideals. Loyalty and honour are very important to Circe.

  • Nah, she's reformed, but that's how she knows what they want.
• She was with Astraeus a lot more than her other lovers, yet she married Mryddin, what's with that?
  • We all make poor life choices. Don't judge her for either of them.
• She doesn't really show any affection publicly for Mryddin is their marriage even real?

    • Or does it?

"Once upon a time, an angel and a devil dared to imagine a new way of living. One without massacres, torn throats, and bonfires of the fallen. One without children ripped from their mothers arms to take their turn in the killing and dying."
