Play-date with a void child and a grimmchild
Who: Troupe Master Grimm, the Knight, the Grimmchild and you.
What: Grimm requested the Grimmchild from the Storyteller and his request was granted. Now it is time for a play-date.
When: August 25th
Where: Across Enso
Warnings: Spoilers for the Grimm Troupe DLC.
Note: Both the Knight and Grimm are available to be spoken to so please let us know in your header if you would like a response from Grimm, the Knight or both of them.
[Grimm had many reasons for requesting the Grimmchild charm from the Storyteller. Despite the dangers present in this world, it was one full of life. The living prospered here and the sky was beautiful and blue. There were many curiosities here, things to learn and indulge without shame. Grimm's memories will offer the child so many experiences of eons and reincarnations gone by to be implemented as they saw fit, but there would be things here that even their predecessor has not experienced.
So many reasons but the most pressing one was the simplest: Grimm wanted to see his child again.
He had informed the Knight that their child now lived in this world once the Troupe Master had woken to the Charm containing the tiny scarlet flame in his possession. The Grimmchild had been set back to the form they first had when birthed but that was no matter for the moment. He wished to show the Grimmchild the island and the Knight had been happy enough to join them.
For those who wandered Enso at their leisure, they may stumble across the Knight playing with a strange creature that is making sounds not unlike a kitten. The Grimmchild is sentient and quite willing to approach those nearby if not approached first.
Grimm is supervising closely however, so trouble-makers may wish to be careful. But he looks more relaxed then he was when the flowers were choking the life out of everyone. It is doing his heart good, after all, to see both the Knight and the Grimmchild having fun together.]

Ritual?
(Synthetics such as themselves and the Knight, cannot procreate as far as they know.
...They still haven't quite grasped that the Knight is a child.
...They also don't really seem to know what to make of the Knight's impression of them, headtilting and chattering but saying nothing.)
no subject
The Ritual is the means by which myself and Knight met. They called me to their land of Hallownest through the Nightmare Lantern and sought the flames of my kin and participated a passionate dance with me to grow this child.
[It is a straightforward explanation but that is by Grimm's standards. He is not lying, however.]
no subject
They seem pleased by the reaction they got from their little impression, tilting their head back at Legion in response. The Grimmchild follows suit, apparently finding this bit of communication sufficient to entertain them. ]
no subject
From the description, this sounds like something "magical" and not biological.
...Still though.)
This is outside of typical synthetic functions?
no subject
It is yes. The end result is the growth of the Grimmchild. However I have asked for them to be brought here to experience a land of life.
[It will aid in their growth in a way that Grimm's endless memories passed on could not.]
no subject
The Knight simply nods to answer Legion's question, lifting their hands to sign. ]
not-normal-life-cycle
[ The children made by the Pale King were merely meant to serve as containers for something much greater. Their functions began and ended in their name. ]
no subject
(The explanation is sufficient for the moment.
More interesting is the Grimmchild and their attempts to mimic Geth language.
Their headflaps lift slightly. After a moment, they make a simpler noise, slower so that it's easier for the child to hear the component clicks. They are curious if the child will be capable of mimicking it.)
no subject
Grimm is content to watch his child for a little while before speaking up.]
Quite curious. Do these clicks mean something, my friend?
[Their language, perhaps?]
no subject
They can't click, lacking a mouth to do it with. But they tap one of their own horns with their nail, curious to see if they can imitate the sounds Legion is making accurately. ]
no subject
It is the language of our people.
(Except their people are dead, so it's mostly just the language of Legion.)
no subject
It is quite unique I must say.
[The Grimmchild seems to agree with their predecessor and their attempts at mimicking Legion become slower as they attempt to understand the Geth's language. They may be a child but they share the childlike curiosity of their predecessor's partner. This is all very new and they would like to know more about it.]
no subject
would-like-to-learn
[ It is an almost-lost language, but the Knight considers them family, if only to make that ache of being alone easier to bear. They want to learn it, to keep it alive, if only just for a little while longer. ]
no subject
We are willing to teach.
(It's an offer, not just to the Knight but to anyone else interested.)
no subject
They are quite interested in your kind offer my friend! And I am willing to learn another language myself, if you are willing to teach me as well.
