I Already Finished It.. But It Looks Very Wrong And Full Of Correction Pen Marks ;-; Guess It's Redraw

Remember someone named Antoine Beaumont that I mentioned in Aurelie's bio? Well.. I drew him.

TW: mentions of unhealthy relationship

Asra Alnazar is not the asshole!

WIBTA if I messed up the count's ritual on purpose so I could bring my partner back to life?

I (20sX) am a mage hired by the count (30s-40sM) who rules over my region to help find a cure for a plague that has been dooming all of us for quite a while.

There have been many victims of the plague, including my (soon no longer) deceased partner, and the count himself. As he grows more desperate, he asked me to perform a ritual involving the major arcana (like, the actual figures represented by the cards) which would transfer his soul and conscience to The Fool's body.

However, I have a better idea. What if I used the ritual to resurrect my partner instead? I mean, it's a selfish thing to do, but to do it for the count would be equally selfish thing on his side, and besides, he was the one who brought the plague here and no one actually liked his snobby, selfish ass, so.. would I really be the asshole if I were to bring my partner back to life by messing with the ritual and let that count die?

He once complimented me,

On how the golden circlet matched my long locks of auburn

And now, in my slumber, I listened to his spirit's last wish,

To let our bones lay in the same golden urn.

Epilogue

I finally decided to tell Tori about the charcoal sketch. I invited her, and she came to my house. I showed her the sketch of Alois Vilhelm and said that he might've been the inspiration for my family members' names.

"Interesting. Who do you think wrote the endearments?"

"I don't know. The portrait dates from 1819, so the person who wrote it must've lived during those times.."

"The naming of Louis variant names was started by your fifth great-grandfather, right?" Tori asked.

I think about it for a while. "I don't think he's the one who wrote it, Tori. He's born in 1815, so he probably wouldn't address Alois by his first name."

"You're right, Al." Tori continued, "And it couldn't be your sixth great-grandmother, since your sixth great-grandfather and her divorced a year before."

Suddenly, I remembered about the exhibit.

"Tori? Remember about that letter from 'Victor'? What if.. what if Victor was indeed my sixth great-grandfather, and this Alois.. was his beloved?"

"We can't confirm it yet. We need more proof."

I replied quickly. "I got the sketch from a secret storage under my bed! Maybe there's more things in there!"

"Let's check it!" She turned on the flashlight function on her phone. I opened the secret storage and pulled out a pile of unsealed envelopes.

With shaking hands, I opened one of them and examined the content. A love letter for 'Victor', signed by "Your Beloved". Tori held Alois's sketch, and we compared his handwriting to the letter.

"It fits," we said in union. Then, Tori quickly opened her gallery app, viewing the letter from 'Victor', then comparing it with the endearments behind the sketch, and finally, to Claus Chasterell's handwritten original script of "The Knight and The Elven Bard".

"Is it him?" I asked. She nodded. "Yes, it is Claus's handwriting."

"So, does it mean, the reason my fifth great-grandfather named his son Alois.. is because Alois Vilhelm dated Claus Chasterell?"

"Yes."

We both looked at each other. We did it. We found out who's this Alois my family members are named after.

His name is Alois Vilhelm, and he's my sixth great-grandfather's lover.

(A/N : sorry if this is so rushed, guys! I just wanted to make sure this wouldn't end up unfinished like Cosette and Louisette.. also the secret is pretty guessable isn't it?)
