Title: Soul Rating: G Summary: The princes and princesses, in six sentences. Warnings: not really. Very, very mild, oblique references to character death. Notes: a weird, weird little ficlet.
***
Ib
Vania weighs herself against the world, and she is the lighter.
***
Sheut
Lianne is negative space: unseen, unacknowledged, and utterly vital.
***
Ren
Jasson is a bright, shining word, that slays empires.
***
Akh
Liam is the ghost, beneficent and maleficent, risen to life.
***
Ba
Kalasin is the never-dying.
***
Ka
Roald is the breath of life, who blows into Thayet and causes her to live again.

Whoaaaa. Alix! I LOVE THIS! You're using the Egyptian concept of the soul, aren't you? *____*

Yes, and lemme tell you, I could not resist sticking Kally with the human-headed bird part. Could. Not. Fortunately for the fic, it actually worked. ;D
I'm glad you liked it!

I love this! I thought the Ancient Egyptians thought there were only 5 parts to the soul though? *goes off to google*
Edit: I’ve just found something that says there are 9 parts, never mind 🌝. But the 5 most important ones are all of the ones in the fic apart from Liam’s (akh)
