Aight 2 thingies

1) Inferna is based on a Egyptian Phoenix and they are inspired by herons. To make her look more like her animal counterpart, I gave her some of their long feathers!

2) Halis and Laelynn's Relationship. Been giving this alot of thought.

 After the confrontation with Malvolia, Halis' mental state was broken. He crawled off into hiding; thanks to Malvolia, his reputation was tainted. He felt that he was never allowed back into his own kingdom that he fought tooth and claw for. Thinking that if he were to ever return, they'd want his head. He developed trust issues and doesn't want to get close to anyone anymore since that was his downfall. While in hiding, he was tormented by his mind and regrets. Wishing he'd never allowed Malvolia to get so deep into his heart, causing this tragedy. After being found by Boutong, he was sent back home. Halis was thinking of the worst outcomes like getting ripped to shreds by his people. With no leaders to run the kingdom, Teel'ryn, Inferna, and their allies offered to run things until Halis was found or figure something else out.

 Inferna welcomed Halis back with open arms then sent him to Boutong's monastery to help properly heal the broken king, mentally and physically. He meets Laelynn, who is trying to train with the monks for spiritual wisdom and to improve her fighting skills. Since Laelynn is a loyal follower to her king, she offers to take care of Halis. She fights through Halis coldness of not wanting to be emotionally attached again, reminding him that not everyone is out to hurt him. They then finally bond which will lead to a romantic relationship

So yee, looking forward to properly introducing Laelynn to the public so I can show off her character and relationship dynamic with Halis! This event between them happens WAY later in this story but Laelynn will be present before then!
