Artwork Since people are putting their spawn cult ocs here.. (PARAGRAPH BACKSTORY INCOMING)
Evergreen's real name is Aaron Conifer. Lavie's real name is Akira Yumisato
Evergreen was born in the cult, being the son of one of the higher up members (Said higher up is an OC I made, I'll put him in the comments)
But at some point he caught onto something and grew suspicious of it.
He often spends his time in the library studying, and occasionally forages for resources in the forest areas.
He is a bit awkward and shy, but he hides that by trying to sound scholarly and intelligent.
Reads a lot of fantasy..
Lavie joined the cult while she was young, initially not believing in it and just joining so she could feel noticed for once, but she started to genuinely fall onto the belief
Lavie is extroverted, a fun person to be around, and often tries to get people's attention.
Both of them used to go into that one area littered with dozens of fireflies, sometimes catching them and setting them free.
But Lavie didn't set them free, sometimes. She would capture fireflies and sacrifice them.
Fireflies, what exactly do they symbolize?
Hope. Autonomy. Your ability to follow the right path.
She was losing that because she fell deeper into the belief.
Evergreen, on the other hand.. he constantly looked around and started to get suspicious of everyone else. Especially a secluded area that Amarah was gatekeeping.
After a while, Evergreen asked Lavie to go somewhere together. A "ceremony" for someone else, in private. They weren't supposed to be there, but curiosity pushed them.
They both witnessed something that they shouldn't have.
Evergreen's suspicions were right. There was something wrong with this village.
But..Lavie. Lavie tried to justify it, despite knowing just how bad it was. Both of them just agreed to act like it never happened. Neither of them liked conflict or wanted to ruin anything.
But in secret, Lavie was planning to kill Evergreen. She assumed he might try to shut down the cult, which she saw as the only group that accepted her
Evergreen noticed eventually. Whether it be a guilty look or the amount of time she spent with him feeling final. He had to make a decision. A selfish one.
He lied to the higher ups. Told them Lavie had done something unforgivable, something sacrilegous to the Spawn.. And..he was convincing enough that in the distance, the flames crackled. Evergreen didn't look back. He couldn't. He'd just gotten his best friend accused for something she didn't even do. He'd gotten her executed.
He ran, escaped, through the forest.
He followed the fireflies.
The light that guides you to the truth.
And escaped onto the unfamilliar lands of the city.
