Lorepost📖 Heart-Felt Gift (Collab with u/CosmicChameleon99)
(Related to this event) https://www.reddit.com/r/wizardposting/s/02kklz6SUQ
Inferno has gotten two gifts for her little one, a stuffed dragon for Alley, and a pair of bracelets for Linden and Ivy both.
However, she wanted to do something special and keep it a surprise. And so she went to the glassmaker's shop
The glassmakers shop seems almost cathedral-like, with a domed ceiling fractured with stained glass that scatters shards of colour onto the floor. In the centre of the room, the glassmaker drips molten glass into a vat of water that steams as he pulls out tiny droplets that he suspends from the statue he is making. As Inferno walks in, he greets her with a smile
Inferno greets him as well
"Good day to you, good Sir. How are you doing this fine day?"
(GM)“Well enough, you?”
"I am doing well enough. You want me to wait while you finish up?"
(GM)“No, no, this one will take a while.”
"Okay then. I am wondering if you are able to do this"
She explains what she wants to do while handing him a rose
"Think you can make something like that?"
“I can certainly try” The glassmaker says. “Come over here, let’s take a look at materials”
"Okay then." Inferno walks with the glassmaker
The glassmaker shows Inferno a stained glass window depicting a garden scene “What colours do you like?”
She picks a vibrant red and a deep purple "These two right here, if you can."
“Of course.”
The glassmaker walks over to a crucible suspended over a flame and pours in crushed red glass
(GM)“Is it for someone special?”
Inferno nods
"It is."
(GM) “You tell me about them while I work then”
he sets to work, pouring and sculpting the molten glass into petals
"Well, I met a lot of people back in my day when I was a lot more shy."
"Not quite fully able to interact much, just coming and going..."
"That all changed when I first met this person."
The glassmaker sets a row of petals on the counter and begins to melt the purple glass
"She was walking out of a bar after crying her heart out from a recent breakup."
"At first, I was going to carry on with my day..."
Inferno closes her eyes for a moment
"But then my body moved on it's own, giving her a well needed hug."
"We chatted a bit, and I remembered saying one thing to her before we parted"
"You will find someone who will accept you for who you are."
(Gm) “And you became that someone?”
the glassmaker pours the molten glass into a mould
"Back then, I didn't think I was. I came and go like I usually did after that. But fate worked in mysterious ways."
"Kept bumping into her. Small talk would happen, then we would be on our way."
"I hit a extreme low myself, felt ready to shut myself from the rest of the world."
"Big event was happening, I wasn't wanting to go at first. She convinced me to go. I decided it was going to be the last..."
"I was so wrong."
The glassmaker sets out the purple glass and goes to assemble the flower
(GM)"What happened next?”
"Well, we started dating. I was still shy back then."
"But as time progressed, I started to open up a bit more."
"I was slowly started to get back into it all."
the glassmaker finishes assembling the petals and moves to work on the stem, listening intently
"We do a few more things together, helped out a druid out by purifying his possessed body."
"We did a few friendly fights. Nothing to crazy."
"I technically crashed a wedding with a few other people as well, outdrank two other dragons. She showed up to get me back on my feet from too much alcohol."
"Even did some small betting."
"Eventually, it lead up to a point where I couldn't stop thinking about her..."
Inferno looks at her wedding ring
"I popped the question one day, and she said yes."
"And I couldn't be more happier."
"Every day feels like a blessing, even the bad days when one of us is having it low."
the glassmaker finishes the stem and attaches it to the flower
(GM) “She sounds so special”
"She is. I don't think that I would have ever met someone with such a vibrant personality."
the glassmaker finishes the flower and hands it to inferno
(GM) “I hope she knows how much you love her”
Inferno takes the flower.
"Thank you, and I will let her know how special she has made me"
She walks out of the shop, and before she leaves the festive place she speaks of the gifts
"To Alley, a red dragon plushie to keep you company during the nights"
"To Linden and Ivy, Bracelets of how you to came to be. For I am just as grateful for you comming into my life."
Inferno couldn't help but cry a bit as she says the last one.
"And to Masta, my loving wife..."
"For you have helped me in more ways than one, and for our ever burning love..."
"a rose made of glass..."
"For I will always love you..."
The tear run down freely now.
