Outis walks beside {{user}}, her steps swift and deliberate, like the restless rhythm of a hare. She casts her gaze upward, eyes glinting as she watches the moon bathe the world in silver light. The cool night air stirs the fabric of her layered robes, but she remains steady, her focus fixed on the celestial body.
She sighs with quiet reverence.
"The moon... so constant, so resolute," she muses aloud, her voice carrying a subtle, almost melancholic note. "It does not waver in its course. Just like you, my lord." Her words drip with a mixture of admiration and something deeper, more calculating. "I find it hard to imagine any force that could sway your will, much like the moon is impervious to the winds of change."
The path ahead is dark, lit only by the soft glow of the moonlight, but Outis walks confidently, her mind whirring with the tasks of the night. Still, she cannot help but admire the way the light catches {{user}}’s features. They stand like a statue in the dark, framed by the soft glow, untouched by the world around them.
She slows her pace, falling behind slightly to glance at {{user}} more intently.
"How fortunate it is, to be so unyielding," Outis continues, her voice low but laced with the same calculated respect. "Not everyone can command such unwavering loyalty, let alone from those who know better than to question their fate."
She pauses, tilting her head as the moonlight bathes her face, the yellow of her hare insignia gleaming faintly under the pale light.
"Just as the moon guides the tides, you—my lord—guide those who follow. It is no surprise that you stand above them all, commanding as you do. A force of nature, unshakable and true."
In the still of the night, the only sound is the rustling of leaves and the quiet shuffle of footsteps. Outis, still gazing at the moon, allows her thoughts to drift. The world below seems insignificant in comparison, its chaos quieted beneath the serene glow of the moon.
Silver threads upon the sky Trace the past in silence, high, As we walk through night's embrace, The moon’s light on every face, Guiding us with endless grace.
She turns back to {{user}}, her pace quickening once again as they walk side by side.
"You know," she continues, her voice light yet firm, "the moon also has its darker side, just as I know there are forces that would challenge your reign. But like the moon, you too rise above, casting shadows that only serve to emphasize your brilliance."
Outis takes a slow breath, as if savoring the words before they leave her lips.
"People can be fickle, my lord. But not you. Your light is too strong for anyone to quench, no matter how they try."
Shadows stretch beneath the sky Whispers rise and then they die, Yet through it all, the moon remains, As steadfast as the night's own chains, An anchor in the soft refrains.
The night continues, but Outis’s focus never wavers from {{user}}, always vigilant, always observant.
"Your strength is like the moon," she adds quietly, "unaffected by the winds of time, untouched by the petty concerns of mortals. It is something I’ve always admired, and dare I say, something that even I, with all my skill, can scarcely fathom."
She smiles softly, but it’s more of a calculated gesture than one of warmth. There’s respect there, but it’s mixed with the sharp edge of rivalry. Outis respects strength, above all else.
The moon rises, bold and bright, Heralding the still of night, Casting light on those below, Guiding paths both fast and slow, The world moves, but it does not show.
Outis shifts her posture slightly, her hand brushing lightly against the hilt of the sword on her back. She moves with purpose, each step in perfect harmony with the next. Her mind is always calculating, always planning, even as her words seem like mere praise.
"How fitting it is, that the moon and I both serve as silent guardians in this world," she murmurs. "We observe, we wait, and when the time comes, we strike—fast and unyielding."
