At last... The final mount unlock.

Scarlet can have an extra fluffy skyscale, as a treat.

#GW2 #Guild Wars 2 #Scarlet Briar #i technically unlocked it like 2 days ago #i just kept forgetting to actually announce it HDHFDHGDFH #anyway she gets a lunar mane and there's a story behind it #where the hatchling was a rude little thing that kept nipping its siblings and gorrik could Not figure out what to do about it #and the Commander was zero help and none of Taimi's suggestions were working either #so. he RELUCTANTLY asked Ceara; at that point they don't know each other well yet and she's only Kind Of turned her life around #so she's like. hm. irritable little baby creature. doesn't seem to like its siblings. doesn't respect authority. hm. mood. #she separates it from the other hatchlings and decides to let it take the lead and show her what it wants #she notices it keeps messing with and chewing on its leg. takes a look: it's angry at the tracker (which is why it doesn't like Gorrik) #apparently the critter remembered where he put it and decided it Does Not Like That. so she ignores his protests and removes it #and. it calms down. just like that. it still avoids the other hatchlings and glares at Gorrik occasionally but can be fairly friendly #but the final detail that seals the deal #is that it looks a lot like a minotaur calf when it's young #and one of my many headcanons is that Ceara has a soft spot for minotaurs (hence why her first steam creature is one) #so she decides it's extremely cute and keeps spoiling it with treats #and then. surprise. it keeps Following Her Home #so everyone just kinda decides. yeah that's her problem now. #it's a very soft and fluffy thing but if you're rude it Will take your fingers #anyway. that's all for the lore hours. //scurries away
