Hilario is confused by the feast, and Tarnist explains that since it's Hilario's last life, he wants him to have things that will make him happy. Hilario counters that he doesn't want gifts, it's the things you ave to earn that are special. Hilario wants body warmth, another person's heart, and love. The memory ends with Hilario thinking that he will never have that again.

Hilario is summoned vua magic circle by a wizard looking to make a contract. Hilario gets straight to the point: He has only one wish, and that is to die. It's a challenge, and many magicians before have failed, but Tarnist accepts. Tarnist takes Hilario home with him, turns out Tarnist is the magic king. Lucky~ he'll get to eat well again. Hilario picks Tarnist up and promises to protect him, and gets yelled at. Gets yelled at more for checking that Tarnist is actually a guy. Idiot cat.


+ that very tired and very old feeling of wanting to die again WHAT THE HELL
+ he's had other masters, including the last king. cool.
+ still won't remember his name
+ very noticeable difference in his feelings between this memory and his other memory of Tarnia. going from casual pleased good new boss to huge amounts of admiration and attachment. Also calling him by a nickname in the later memory, HUH.

One of his traps accidentally caught and killed another shapeshifter-- Hilario won't eat him, but he has no pity for the dead cat. Later he's attacked by and defeats a tiger. The tiger is a wild beast that forgot how to talk. Both of the other cats are idiots.

+ don't do cannibalism
trivial positive
A wonderful dance festival

Game: A series of questions, ???'s first game (Day 396)
Form: a blank white card. write anything on it.
Taken: Y

pages 14-15
Hilario attends a festival with Tarnia. It celebrates an annual event where the king uses his own magic to charge the citizens' jewels, enabling even non-magicians to use a little magic. Hilario compliments the festival and praises Tarnia as amazing.

Tarnia asks him what he honestly thinks-- Hilario teases at Tarnia's ego ("You think you're superior because you're the king"), but says that Tarnia is a gentle person. Hilario asks if Tarnia is hesitating in fulfilling Hilario's wish to die. Before Tarnia can answer, Hilario tells him "I'm fine. It's already fine."

This is the first festival he's attended, and that one will be remembered most strongly, but this memory will also have instances of later festivals. Decades and decades of attending the same festival every year and watching Tarnia perform his magic. Every year it's amazing.


+ first memory of Tarnia! Tarnia is the magician king of Maurice and someone that Hilario is super fond of.
+ he's supposed to help Hilario die, but is obviously reluctant. Northerly will have no fucking idea what that's all about, but the feeling in the memory is sad, tired, and very, very old.
+ FESTIVAL STUFF BRIGHT LIGHTS MUSIC DANCING GAMES DELICIOUS FOOD in a magic-medieval setting. Northerly will now be able to recognize things like money and glass windows. Level-up from feral jungle child!
+ Baby's first memory, he's only going to really recall the first festival in any real detail. The others will be like echoes-- It's too much to take in at once this time.
+ still won't know his name
