Chapter 2: Is it wrong to have a big dick?
The lush greenery of the surrounding forest gave way to the towering walls of Orario, their imposing height a monument to the world's greatest city. Fera's steps faltered as a strange mix of emotions and sensations surged within him—emotions that were foreign, yet deeply intimate. His hand instinctively went to the waistband of his finely tailored black trousers, feeling the unfamiliar weight of his newly acquired male anatomy.
Hidden from prying eyes, Fera unsheathed his new "weapon" in more ways than one. The steady stream of relief came with an unwelcome flood of memories of his time. Except it was not his time, but the newly generated backstory of the body he currently possesses.
Flashes of Beltane—a land of rolling greenery and ancient traditions. His time as a Guardian, the bond with the stubborn princess, and the bloody triumph over the Swamp King. His right wrist tingled as the Talvi bracelet, her final gift, caught the sunlight. It served both as a tether to his past and an ever-present reminder of who still awaited news of his survival.
It wasn't just a token of her affection—it was a life-monitoring device, alerting her once a week of his survival. Practical, but also annoyingly sentimental.
Pushing his hardened cock back in his underwear, he admired it, adjusted his finely fitted black tunic, then Fera stepped back onto the main road, the bracelet glinting against his dark sleeve. His outfit, though simple in design, bespoke an understated elegance that seemed to reflect his the image he is going for thereby increasing his confidence.
Ahead of him, a man struggled to push a trolley laden with dubious-looking contraband. Fera quickened his pace. Feelings of aversion rose as he hurried ahead to avoid it. Not wanting to get stuck behind the potential drama. His sharp eyes scanned the gate and its long line of travelers—merchants, adventurers, and curious onlookers, all vying to enter the city.
"Man, it would've been nice to just drop into the middle of the city," Fera mused to himself, his voice light and tinged with playful arrogance. "But no, I get to enjoy the scenic route."
-Fuck, their noise
The chatter of the people around him annoyed him primarily as he worked better in silence. Hearing others talk usually filled his mind unnecessarily.
His stomach growled, but he ignored it. First, entry. Then, breakfast.
Reaching the immigration checkpoint, Fera presented the crest of Beltane along with a recommendation letter from Bheara. The parchment bore signs of haste, but the bold signature at the bottom carried enough weight to smooth over most bureaucratic hurdles.
The officer in-charge of his processing, a man in his late thirties with graying temples, barely glanced up. "Purpose of your visit?" he asked, voice flat and detached.
Fera leaned forward slightly, his lips quirking into a mischievous smile. "Pleasure," he replied, his voice smooth and seductive. An experiment.
That single word snapped the officer's attention upward. His dull expression was quickly replaced with curiosity, his eyes lingering on Fera's striking features. The officer straightened in his posture, suddenly interested.
"Well now," he said, his voice softening. "Not every day I get to see someone as fine as you"
-I guess im fine shyt, huh..
Fera arched an eyebrow, a playful smile tugging at his lips. "Is that your way of saying that you are perhaps lonely..?", Out of amusement, Fera shifted side to side with his hands behind his back accentuating the toned curves of his body a bit more.
The officer chuckled, leaning forward slightly. "It's my way of saying you might want to be careful. Orario isn't exactly a forgiving place, especially for someone who looks… as refined as you do."
"Oh? And here I thought the city was all about opportunities," Fera teased, his voice lilting with amusement. Out of comparison, he thought of New York whilst placing his hand to his chin stroking it gently whilst looking above at the massive wall and what it adorns.
The officer chuckled again, clearly enjoying the banter. "Depends on what kind of opportunity you're looking for. We've got the Guild if you're aiming to be an adventurer, plenty of shops if you're a merchant, or—" He paused, his gaze lingering meaningfully. "—other… establishments, if that's your thing."
Fera hesitated for a moment, the officer's words echoing in his mind. The Pleasure District. The thought crept in like an enticing whisper, promising an opportunity far different from the life of an adventurer.
"A man of culture," Fera mused aloud, his voice smooth with a playful edge.
The officer smirked, clearly enjoying the banter. "What can I say? I have an eye for talent." With a practiced flourish, he stamped Fera's papers and slid them across the counter. His voice dropped, the charm undeniable. "Welcome to Orario. If you need someone to show you around…"
Fera leaned in as he retrieved his papers, letting his fingers graze the man's hand just long enough to spark an almost imperceptible reaction. "I'll keep that in mind," he said with a wink before leaning closer and planting a soft kiss on the officer's cheek.
The man froze, a deep blush creeping up his neck as his composure faltered. That single moment was all Fera needed.
[All-Flesh], his extraordinary, love-oriented skill, activated subtly. The soul link established with the kiss brought a flood of information rushing into Fera's mind. It was instinctive—a brief but telling overview of the man's essence.
"…Nothing. No talents, no skills, no meaning," Fera thought, maintaining his charming smile despite the wave of disgust that surged within him. The officer's life, as mundane and uninspiring as a blank page, was an affront to Fera's sensibilities.
"Thank you for the warm welcome," Fera said warmly, his fake smile twitching slightly. They exchanged a few more pleasantries, the officer clearly enthralled, before Fera placed a brief hand on his shoulder in farewell.
As he stepped past the gate and into the city, Fera severed the soul link without hesitation. The connection dissolved as easily as it had formed, leaving behind nothing but the faintest echo of lust; even brushing the hand he used to touch the man's shoulder on his clothes trying to get rid of that feeling of being connected to that low-life but realizing it could only spread that way soured his mood.
The overwhelming symphony of Orario trapped him—a choir of merchants peddling their wares, people shouting, and the steady rhythm of countless footsteps reverberating through the streets.
For a moment, he stood still, breath caught in his chest. Orario... Humans brushed past elves, dwarves, and beastfolk, their myriad forms a puzzle to his still adjusting mind. The air crackled with energy, every passerby a unique thread in the city's Fate. Fera's gaze wandered—hungrily at times—over the swaying hips of some attractive women and the confident strides of men. Their beauty was unrestrained, their presence magnetic. He caught flashes of coy smiles, wandering eyes meeting his for fleeting moments, and the occasional lingering glance that sent a thrill coursing through him.
They notice me too, he thought, a sly grin tugging at his lips. The unspoken exchanges were as intoxicating as the city itself—a game played without words, a connection that sparked and dissipated in a heartbeat.
I wonder, Fera mused to himself, how many others have dreamed of walking these streets back on Earth? Would they have savored it like I am now? Or would they have been overwhelmed by the sheer life of this place?
Compared to Orario's boundless vibrancy, his past life on Earth, the sterile monotony of the spaceship, and even the colorful but distant memories of Beltane felt quaint, almost lifeless. Here, every step he took was a declaration of existence, every gaze exchanged an affirmation of something primal stirring inside him.
But Fera wasn't just here to admire. He had a purpose. One of the reasons he loved this world—Danmachi—was how deeply he understood it. Its systems, its balance, its very structure were imprinted in his mind. He remembered every detail, down to the Reddit map he had once poured over. From the West Gate, where he entered, he knew breakfast was straight ahead—a maddeningly long walk, but the destination was worth it.
His thoughts wandered again as he weaved through the crowd, imagining the Hostess of Fertility. The vision sharpened in his mind: the warm, rustic charm of the tavern, the savory aroma of freshly cooked meals, and the women—oh, the women...the staff. They were the stuff of fantasy, plus who wouldn't admire it..
Fera's pace quickened unconsciously, the promise of that world pulling him forward.
Fera walked through the streets of Orario, the morning air still cool against his skin, his thoughts racing faster than his feet. The moment he saw Anya Fromel—her cat ears twitching in frustration as she swept the floor with unnecessary zeal—he knew he had to make his move.
"Excuse me, is the Hostess open?" Fera's voice was smooth, casual, as his sharp eyes zeroed in on her. His body language was that of a man who'd never known hesitation, and he wasn't about to start now.
Anya, flustered by his sudden presence, blushed and stammered. "N-Nyeah! Mama Mia's open!"
"Nyeah?" Fera echoed, raising an eyebrow in amusement.
"Nyeah!" she repeated, her tail flicking with curiosity.
-Curiosity killed the cat..he smirked as picked up on her mannerisms quick. An Easy one...if he choose.
Fera simply nodded, moving past her and entering the Hostess of Fertility. The warmth inside was inviting, and before he could even look around, the peppy voice of Chloe Rollo greeted him like a shot of ecstasy.
"Good morning! Welcome!" Chloe beamed, immediately spotting him and bouncing over to lead him to an empty table. She was all energy, her steps light and quick, practically pulling him along with her enthusiasm.
-Ah..how vibrant. I like this one too.
"Come on, nya! I'll show you to your seat!" she chirped, leading him through the restaurant with quick, lively steps. She was all bouncy enthusiasm, yet Fera's keen eyes were already studying everything—every shift in her posture, every glance she cast.
"Here we are!" Chloe announced as she pulled out the chair for him. "I'll get you your menu!"
Fera sank into the seat with a quiet smirk, eyes never leaving her. "You seem…rather chipper this morning," he said, his voice light but with a hint of challenge.
Chloe blinked at the unexpected comment but didn't hesitate. "Oh, I love meeting nwey faces! It's always so exciting! Nyah!"
Chloe's bright smile faltered slightly, but she quickly regained her composure, tilting her head in playful confusion. "Oh, nya! I just love meeting new people! It's so exciting!" Her tail flicked happily behind her.
"Exciting, is it?" Fera asked, his voice taking on a teasing edge. "Or is it just the attention you love?" He was already scanning her in detail. Out of all the girls, perhaps he just did not feel much for Chloe yet, an easy target for another reason: malice. Albeit, just feelings.
Her smile faltered for a second, a slight flush creeping up her neck. "I… I guess I'm used to it," she stammered, trying to maintain her cheerfulness, though her eyes were slightly avoiding his intense gaze. Although he did not realize, Fera had an air of hostility due to how casual he treated the world around him...a mistake he'd come to regret later, but for now..
Fera's smirk only deepened. He could feel the undercurrent of unease beneath her exterior, but it didn't matter. He was far more interested in how easily people could be revealed.
"I'm sure the staff here is always delightful," he said, his voice dripping with charm. He let the moment stretch longer than needed, before leaning forward slightly, his eyes twinkling with mischief. "I'll be sure to take my time."
"Uh okay, nya?", Chloe's eyes widened, caught between trying to maintain her cheerful demeanor and the hint of discomfort he had caused. "I-I think I'll let you enjoy your breakfast, nya," she said with a nervous laugh, setting the menu in front of him. "Let me know if you need anything, nya!"
As she walked away, Fera's gaze followed her, but his thoughts were already elsewhere. He flicked open the menu—though the food was hardly on his mind. His mind was already spinning, analyzing, calculating. There was a game to be played here, and he was only just beginning.
He never kept the menu open for long. Decisions came quickly, always efficient. Soup, simple and warm, caught his eye. Then, unexpectedly, hot chocolate—a rare indulgence.
His lips quirked. How quaint. He placed the order without hesitation, already imagining the steam curling lazily in the air.
His hand brushed against his thigh. A reflex, subtle yet deliberate, confirming the pouch hidden within his tailored pocket. Secure. Inside, 500,000 valis. A modest amount, extras meant to smooth over life's trivial inconveniences. It was safe here, he took out the cursed tool, the only equipment he took into this world due to it's all-around benefits; [Unearthed of Malina]. Inspired by the Aztez God, Malinalxochitl, it is a scorpion looking-tool meant to be his perfect weapon as once attached it will behave symbiotically and adapt it's body to serve him; as an armor, weapon or more as long as it is fed mana over time.
Fingers tapped rhythmically against the table, a soft cadence that matched the hum of his thoughts. His head rested in his palm, eyes half-lidded.
-How quickly can I master it all?
The question lingered, a weightless whisper in his mind. Strength and potential, to him, were tethered not to muscle nor talent, but to the soul. The soul—a vast ocean, unfathomable and deep. Those who accessed it shaped their own Fate.
-And I will shape mine.
He recalled his magic: [Anima Vestra], a pact with power itself. To submit the essence of others, their very souls, under his will. The concept was simple—souls as currency, their submission the price. With enough of them, safety and control were guaranteed.
No wish would remain beyond his reach.
Yet, even this power came with its limits. Material desires demanded energy, meaning. Deeper wishes makes things difficult. The solution? Exploitation. The weak were plentiful, their desperation ripe for harvest.
His gaze shifted, seeking Ryuu in the kitchen. He waited, silent and still, savoring the moment.
Then, his thoughts pivoted. Another spell called to him: [Gate of Heaven]. One that he could not use without surpassing what is considered impossible to most.
"Transcendence," he murmured, his voice low but sharp. "Level 8… ideally to use it, barely. But there's another way."
The Gate wasn't just a point of entry. It was a mechanism—a divine facilitator. With practice, it could be turned into something more: a sub-magic to briefly let in and absorb incoming spells. Every attack it absorbed carried meaning, intent, and essence. If he could harness that…
Replication. Mastery. Near-Instant.
The process was clear, the potential limitless. But perfection required study. A challenge, perhaps, but one he welcomed.
He leaned back, lips curving into a faint smile.
Gate of Heaven Sub-Magic Theoretical Process:
1. His mana channeled into the form of the Gate, forming a framework.
2. The Gate leads it into me to absorb the magic,
3. Target's magic attack acts as intent, converted into a message
4. Intent is driven; its meaning and essence.
5. The magic flows into the user's soul, integrating seamlessly.
6. The user gains immediate understanding and replicates it at will.
"With this… and [All-Flesh]," he mused, the words light, almost playful, "my versatility will be absolute. Conditional, sure. But absolute."
When the hot chocolate arrived, he took it in hand, inhaling its warmth. A small pleasure in the midst of a grand design. It was almost poetic, he thought, how even something so simple could be savored.
He was so immersed in his thoughts that he nearly failed to acknowledge Ryuu except she fell for the trap. He did not intend to really pull the cliche, but left the tool on the table for a reason. Anyone would question something as ominous as that accursed scorpion tool that he had placed on the table which flickered with gradual temper due to it's current weakness. It gave off a bad feeling.
Fera's eyes darted toward Ryuu's hand as it hovered near the cursed tool. Her stoic expression remained intact, but the faint hesitation in her movement betrayed her unease. As she was about to point, he did not let her, in an instant, his hand shot out, wrapping firmly around hers before she could withdraw.
"No, Elf" he said, his voice smooth but cutting, his sharp eyes locking onto hers. "You planning to touch that?"
Ryuu froze, her sky blue eyes widening slightly as she met his gaze soft and bewitching gaze. Her dislike screamed for restraint, but the suddenness of his touch sent a jolt through her.
Realizing her tension, Fera released her hand just as quickly, brushing his fingertips lightly against her knuckles as he let go. "Apologies," he said, his tone softening, though his smirk stayed. "I didn't mean to be so forward. It just seemed… like a mistake in the making."
Her lips parted, but no words came. The faintest hint of pink crept across her pale cheeks, a contrast to her otherwise composed demeanor. After all, he's cute.
He grew worried by her silence.
"You're not mad, are you? His eyes searched hers, sharp and calculating despite the softness in his expression.
Ryuu straightened, her composure snapping back into place like a drawn bowstring. She quickly responded, "I would not have touched it," she said, her voice even and measured, though the faint flush on her cheeks betrayed her.
"Who are you", she asked.
He answered her with an air of mystery, "Beltane… new to Orario."
Her brow furrowed slightly. She nervously asked, "You're joining a Familia, then?"
He sesned her mind was still racing a bit and was trying to defend itself.
"Perhaps," Fera said, his tone light but evasive. "Or perhaps I'll let the Familia find me."
Ryuu's grip on the tray in her hand tightened ever so slightly. His answers were deliberately vague, leaving her with more questions than before. "Do you have a goal in Orario?"
"Survival," he replied simply, his eyes meeting hers with an intensity that silenced her momentarily. "And perhaps a good meal."
For a brief moment, Ryuu found herself unsure how to respond. His presence was disarming, not in its physicality but in the sheer confidence and mystery he exuded. Her hand tightened on the tray again, her composure returning. "Enjoy your meal," she said curtly, stepping away to avoid lingering too long as she kept rethinking what had just occurred. Gripping the hand he touched.
Fera watched her go, a faint chuckle escaping his lips as Chloe returned, balancing a tray of steaming food. She placed it before him with a flourish. "Here you go, nya! The best breakfast in Orario!"
He nodded appreciatively. "Thank you. This should do perfectly."
Chloe lingered for a moment, her curiosity getting the better of her. "So, what brings you to the Hostess? First time here?"
"First time," Fera confirmed, his gaze shifting to her. "I heard it was worth the walk."
Chloe's ears perked up, her tail flicking happily. "You've got good taste, nya! This is the best place in Orario."
Fera shrugs. "That remains to be seen."
Her cheerful confidence faltered for just a second, but she quickly recovered, brushing off the faint unease. "You'll see, nya! Just wait until you try it."
As he began eating, Chloe busied herself with other tables, though she shot occasional glances in his direction. He ate with deliberate care, savoring each bite as if the food held secrets of its own. When Chloe returned to collect the empty plate, he leaned back slightly, meeting her gaze.
"You were right," he said, his voice warm. "It was worth it."
Chloe beamed, her earlier doubts evaporating. "Told you, nya! Anything else I can get for you?"
He shook his head, sliding a small amount of coins toward her. "This should cover it."
Chloe counted the Valis quickly, her tail flicking in approval. "Perfect, nya! Come back anytime."
Fera stood, adjusting the collar of his tunic. "Until we meet again". He made his way to the door after recollecting his thoughts on his abilities.
Stepping outside, he paused, the cool morning air brushing against his skin. He had spent his time deliberating on his abilities. Perhaps, he could have made more of an effort to be amicable with the staff, but just pulling on cliche's were enough.
-I ate. My only hunger remaining is my lust.
He already knew where he had to go.
The Pleasure District.
However, back at the hostess he was still the talk of the hour with Anya considering him dreamy, Chloe felt like something was off about him and Ryuu...had a lot to sort out.

==================================================================
Prowess
Versatile Fighter: Has perfected the art of blending magic and melee combat into a threatening force. Drawing from the legendary fighting techniques of the Beltane warriors, he channels their ancient prowess through his own body, seamlessly integrating magic into every strike and maneuver. His combat style is fluid and adaptable, with his honed magical abilities enhancing his precision and power in battle. Whether unleashing devastating magic blasts or executing expert hand-to-hand combat, Fera's unique fusion of magic and martial skill makes him a truly formidable opponent, capable of taking on any challenge with unmatched versatility and lethal grace.
Enhanced Senses: The user's senses are greatly heightened, with superior eyesight being the most notable. Their hearing, smell, touch, and taste are also improved, allowing for increased awareness and faster reactions in combat. After acquiring his falna all of his senses became much sharper than those of a normal person, with his eyesight still being particularly superior to the rest. His senses further improved with each subsequent rank up.
Temporal Perception: This ability accelerates the user's perception of time, allowing them to react and process movements faster than normal. Enhanced kinetic vision enables them to track fast movements effortlessly.
Chant Connection: A technique that only Riveria is able to use, originally. Chant connection enables him to change the strength of her magic based on the chant length and mind usage. His magic is separated into three groups of magic based on the type and chant length, with each magic in a group referred to as a level. Basically, making the original spell into three separate parts of varying degrees of power and it appears as three separate spells.
Enhanced Metabolism: Has the toughest stomach in the entire series. He can eat monsters, inorganic matter, and dead people without any ill effect and would be able to eat even Syr's lunches. Additionally, he possesses a high resistance to alcohol that allowing him to drink even more than Gareth, if it ever came to such a scenario.
Hieroglyphs: Can comprehend the sacred text which is otherwise known as the language of the Gods.
Concurrent Chanting (並行詠唱): A high-level technique involving casting magic while fighting or moving around. Its difficulty is likened to dealing with a bomb with both hands while fighting due to the chance of failing a chant or not being able to control their own magic power. Skill at using concurrent chanting depends on how much experience the user has with it.
Superhuman Human Physiology: Even without Falna, he was born gifted to the point where his body could grow incredibly dense muscle, maintain it's integrity, he regenerates quickly, and is generally above peak human even without needing to train. He does possess incredibly high affinity for magic which is typically only seen in Elves and has a lifespan comparable to that of Elves. Additionally, has a nigh-endless libido combined with superior with superior reproductive organs.
==================================================================Magic
Gate of Heaven (天の扉): The Gate of Heaven is a ceremony that consists of placing six Great Spirits around a gigantic magic circle so that through the Spirits they invoke the power of Heaven, creating a pillar of massive destruction whose power approaches that of Arcanum. The magic circle itself is daunting, being slightly larger than Central Park, with its scope being large enough to blow away all of Orario and the surrounding area. Due to its high destructive potential, the chant is extremely long, requiring a few days to be completed. Although killing one of the Spirits delays the ritual, it is not enough to end it, since another Spirit can continue the chant where the other left off, so it is necessary to kill all six Spirits to prevent it from taking place. Despite their nature, the Demi Spirits are able to perform the spell due to the original body consuming a Great Spirit.
Anima Vestra: Is a lengthy magic that allows the caster to control individuals by branding them and manipulating their fate to align with their deepest desires—though always at a tragic cost. The brand subtly guides the target's actions, fulfilling their wishes in ways that ultimately lead to misfortune. While the caster initially bears the toll of this power, they can shift the burden onto the target by convincing them to willingly submit to the pact. This submission not only binds the target's fate but also forces them to pay a sacrifice shaped by their imagination and desires. The magic manifests as spectral chains symbolizing the target's submission, and the caster uses a complex ritual to define the terms of the pact, ensuring the target's devotion while twisting their wishes to serve the caster's goals.
Arcane Faerie: A complex magic allows the user to assume a high-level spirit form, akin to exalted beings from ancient times, granting them an extraordinary increase in magical power, as well as the ability to perform chant-less magic, accelerated regeneration, enhanced physical prowess, and a deeper affinity for both magic and curses. The user gains the ability to perform multiple chants at once, chant connection, and comprehend ancient hieroglyphs, all while experiencing a heightened mental state. However, the transformation comes at a great cost of the magic consuming an enormous amount of mana, and since the user is not a true spirit, the transformation is temporary, meaning they can only maintain it for limited periods before exhausting their energy or losing control.
==================================================================Skill
All-Flesh: An extraordinarily rare skill that activates only when the user feels love for their target, forming soul-link that bridges emotions and physical sensations. While the user remains the dominant force in the bond, able to alter feelings, copy select traits, magic, skills, development abilities, others or even the target's appearance, the essence of the soul itself limits the transfer. The soul resists excessive extraction to maintain integrity, allowing only a partial transfer of abilities to avoid harm. This bond requires time, emotions, and genuine love or their twisted desires could lead to distorted copying or worse. Base stats like strength, agility, and excelia cannot be copied, as they are tied to individual growth. The more targets the user forms a bond with, the weaker the harmony, efficiency, and potential of the skill becomes, causing the transfer to diminish and the connection to weaken. As a bonus effect, it increases in proficiency with every attempt to grow closer to the target.
Skills Acquired; N/A
Magic Acquired;
- Beltane Träumerei: Is Talvi's poison barrier that burns the skin and eats it from the outside in, but its range is very short.
- Usko Nori: Is Uskari's magic to materialize a weapon by turning the wind into a sword. It can also create an explosion by chanting Tuvalo
Veil of the Traveler: A skill that prevents any information about the user from being revealed through skills, abilities, or supernatural means without the user's explicit consent. This includes concealing details during status upgrades from the Power of the Gods. Additionally, it conceals the user from detection tools, magic, and abilities such as clairvoyance or distant observation devices like Freya's orb. While it does not make the user invisible in direct encounters, it ensures they remain undetectable from afar unless they choose otherwise. Bonus effect, it increases the effects of the user's concealment and stealth related abilities.
==================================================================Development Abilities Explained;
Fate: It allows the user to examine their own and others' fates, perceiving key elements of their destinies, such as their potential for love, wealth, success, or demise. At lower levels, the user may only sense vague impressions, such as a general direction of their future. However, as the ability levels up, it becomes more detailed, providing specific insights into outcomes, such as the likelihood of death, character development, and even a person's lifespan. With mastery, the ability grants the user an instinctive or active sense of fate, allowing them to discern whether someone is destined for good or evil, wealth or poverty, or other significant life events. This ability does not control fate but offers the user a way to understand and predict it, acting as both a tool for guidance and a heavy burden, as the user becomes aware of the inevitable paths ahead. Additionally, the user's eyes produce faint, shifting hues that change according to their willpower, with the color becoming more pronounced as their desire strengthens
==================================================================
Equipment
Unearthed of Malina: It is his unique yet double-edged opportunity to increases his overall magical potential. This cursed, living artifact feeds on the user's mana as part of its natural symbiotic behavior, offering greater magic stat growth in exchange for potential risks, including a condition known as mind down—a dangerous overextension of mental and magical reserves.
Bracelet of Talvi:A delicate silver band adorned with an intricate design resembling frost-laced vines, the Bracelet of Talvi serves as both a lifeline and a boon to its wearer. It contains an embedded heart monitor that sends a faint, soothing hum back to a designated recipient or device, offering reassurance that the wearer is alive and well. Beyond its life-linking properties, the bracelet passively enhances cognitive function, improving clarity, focus, and the efficient use of mental abilities. This effect is subtle but invaluable, allowing its wearer to navigate complex situations or challenges with heightened mental acuity. The Bracelet of Talvi is both a personal safeguard and a token of connection, blending practicality and sentiment.
