So, lore-wise, here's what I can put together regarding Ruidus specifically in comparison to other sealed things:

The cage around Ruidus appears to be very similar to the Divine Gate, which is repeatedly described as a lattice. The Divine Gate very specifically only keeps the gods from reaching the Material Plane: travel to and from other planes is possible for anyone else with the spellcasting ability or with access to a portal.

Ruidus is on the Material Plane, a statement I have bolded for reasons of "if you know, you know"; though it has been seen in the Feywild as of late.

Ruidus is also implied to be a prison for two now-unknown deities who had been sealed away and forgotten prior to the height of the Age of Arcanum. It is also indicated to have not existed at the time of the Founding, though it was around by the time of the Calamity. Call of the Netherdeep uses some very deft language to sidestep whether it's truly canonically an alien, dark power that "seep[ed] through the fabric of reality" or if that's just a legend, but does note that Ruidus does have an influence on the fates of those it flares upon. There are enchantments intended to make scrying on Ruidus or discerning its true nature difficult, which is what the Veilscatter Scope bypasses.

Here's where it gets interesting. The Divine Gate is permeable by the avatars of deities and by their favor (ie, Melora can speak to and grant powers to Caduceus and Fjord even though she can't physically manifest on the Material Plane). We know that whatever barriers existed between the Betrayer Gods and the Material Plane prior to them being broken at the onset of the Calamity could not be breached in this way, ie, Betrayer Gods could not grant powers to their worshipers. If Ruidus is surrounded by something similar to the Divine Gate, in theory, that which is on it is sealed off but can grant powers. Which makes sense, because, you know, Imogen.

Imogen notes that the cage around Ruidus distinctly does not look like ley lines. It's worth noting that one of the other barriers we know of, the long-since blighted Tree of Names, was tied to the ley lines. It's also worth noting the Divine Gate is divinely crafted and the Tree of Names was at least implied to be created by the mortal Gau Drashari druidic order. That said, Ruidus itself seems to have ties to the ley lines and planes given that the celestial solstices (of which apogee solstices are a subset) involve the alignment of celestial bodies on the Material Plane leading to a thinning of planar boundaries and potential shifts in ley lines. We also know ley lines can cross planes, although we don't know if this occurs naturally vs. only when wizards get cocky.

The city meanwhile can't really be explained by anything here, so...that's new, and I would presume (though I could be wrong) that Otohan and "guy who is probably Ludinus but could be another elf" are not physically on Ruidus, so the exact nature of Imogen's dreams is still in question. It's also not clear why Imogen has seen several recently departed people, notably Bertrand and the Lumas Twins, in her visions. I'd love to know if there's a third (fourth?), even more secret death god on the moon, which is a wild thing to say.

lookie i did a mario au with limited knowledge haha... look. estella

her backstory will be under read more i guess-

Rosalina in canon doesn't have much of a story except for the story she tells the lumas, which technically are like her children considering what happened with them. The main ideas I was having yesterday before designing her were Rosalina going through an very VERY emotionally expensive arc to then end up becoming who Estella is

Estella is similar to Estrella which means star on spanish so you can kinda can guess what this direction might be like, in a way (?)

So I'm thinking that the reset, despite it being something that Rosalina got adapted certainly quickly and wasn't too worried about it considering all of her years being alive and her power, the whole disaster and the events themselves did leave her a bit more paranoid that expected instead in this one. And with a bit more I mean by a lot. Being used to a journey of losing what she loves, her feelings and uncertainty grow as a result, add to that the fact that she's feeling a much more bigger sense of protectiveness over the galaxy, especially for those who she met.

In fear of being alone and adding the slight paranoia she was going through, Rosalina ended up stopping with her coming to home every 100 years plans and decided to focus on trying to make sure that nothing else like that happened again.

With emotions acumulated, her physical form suffers from change, although it isn't a good change. The stress and certainly the pain she has been feeling for a while took the best of her, add that to her loneliness, and it was like a combo.

Of course she had the lumas, but they were like her children. But she also didn't want them to be worried about how she was, she was supposed to be there for them, and didn't want them to worry.

At the end, it didn't do her any good. Her body changed and changed and so did her mental state. She became more and more scared, doing everything to stop any threat, making sure that if given the case, bowser doesn't try to do any of that (though it is... VERY unlikely), but her feels pile up and she's feeling like she's dying. Why, she can't tell.

Her love for life and the beings that were there was so strong that it kept her going, but it was also killing her emotionally so to speak.

At one point, Estella couldn't do it anymore, weakened by her feelings and stress, by the amount of power constantly being used to protect everything, the goddess was being too rough on herself and didn't realize her limits.

She felt so... alone. But she knew she wasn't. But it was a different type of alone. The lumas were all she had now, and so was her newest friend, but she couldn't bring herself to express those worries. She was a protector. She can't just let her guard down at all.

And she pushed them away with that thought in mind.

And it got so bad to the point in which her body. Started "breaking" itself. Giving up in the way a star would.

She didn't know what to do at all and didn't want others to worry. But if she somehow got into a terrible state, how is she going to be there for them?

She's scared.

She has given herself such pressure when it should've never really been like that on the first place. She was already strong. She was aware that the Lumas were following a cycle. But one can only hold onto hope so much before they break down.

Now basing this from the whole "Rosalina was also a princess back in her place" theory, I think that even if the Lumas did comfort her in her most vulnerable moment, losing her mom and then not being able to communicate with her dad and brother really made her feel worse in the end.

She can't afford losing anyone again.

And that fear, pain and stress almost leaded her to, practically experience what Lumas go through.

Her body breaks, yes, it was giving up due to all of what was going on. The cracks can be seen on her face and everything, and that alarms her a lot.

And so, she realizes that she needed some time. She wrote some letters, sent them, and told the Lumas the truth at the very end.

And she ended up in a slumber so she could either recover, or go through it finally.

As to how much time she was in slumber it's unknown, but things changed a lot.

Star dust started to fuse with her body, star dust from The Lumas who cared for her more than anything, in order to make sure she was safe and healthy again. Which time, her body started to recover, the cracks leaving scars, sure, but recovering. The love of the lumas, her kids, gave her strenght and made her feel like she was going to genuinely be okay again.

One way or another, her family was going to be there with her, always.

And when she was back, everything about her look changed.

For the good.

Long and lovely hair that was taken care of, a star crown, comfortable clothes, the sparkles in her skin, everything about her. And she felt at peace. But she started crying once she processed all of it.

She was alone, but not really.

The Lumas wanted her to be okay. To feel safe. To feel loved. That she's enough. That things will be okay.

She would never really be alone again. But they sacrificed their cycle/life for her. All because of her fear for them to get hurt.

And now they're there with her.

After realizing all of that, Rosalina decided to go by the name of Estella, in memory of the Lumas that she loved so much and now were a part of her.

And now she's still doing her duties. With confidence and always with company despite everything. And yeah.

Okay! It's happening! I have moved blogs, this is the new and current @starrrbitz !

So the new blog is being setup right now! As of Wednesday today, this blog will no longer be active. It will remain up, mainly for myself and nostalgia sake, but I won't be posting to it anymore.

The new blog isn't going to be strictly an art blog like i promised here, and failed to deliver lol. It's just gonna be a main blog where I do a bit of everything: art, reblogs, info dumping! My utdr blog is also abandoned and getting a new one, although again, still need to set up.

Since I follow a lot of utdr blogs and it's my hyperfixation, I still like having it as a seperate blog.

I made this blog when I was 16 so I kind of have a weird attachment to it lol, but I've felt like I needed a change for a while, so I'm just doing it.

I appreciate everyone who liked my art and silly thoughts over the years, and those who talked to young and very lonely me. See ya if I do!

luma

#all im gonna finally say is the next blog wont have A BILLION tags like this one #i dont think my stressed out brain can handle it any more #anyways #bye guys see yall on the new blog if you care enough!#update #luma speaks

“𝐈 𝐃𝐎𝐍’𝐓 𝐍𝐄𝐄𝐃 𝐘𝐎𝐔𝐑 𝐏𝐑𝐎𝐓𝐄𝐂𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍!”

featuring — xiao, luma (oc)

summary — after the lantern rite, luma begins to head back to mondstadt. on their way back, they run into a group of hilichurls. while they were perfectly capable of taking care of themselves, xiao appears and wipes them out. he convinces them to return to wangshu inn with him for the night.

warnings — xiao x oc, slight violence, based off 2023 lantern rite, mentions of self-harm, smut written by a minor, non-binary!oc with female attributes, it’s xiao’s first time, fluff, slight angst, soft and sad sex pretty much

messages from the galaxy — superrrr old post but i hold it very dear in my heart <33

“goodbye traveler and paimon!” luma exclaimed, waving to them. “goodbye lumi!” paimon returned the enthusiastic energy, waving. the traveler offered a small smile.

luma turned around and began heading for mondstadt. along the way, they thought back to the recent events — dinner with hu tao, zhongli, venti, chongyun, xingqiu, xiangling, and xiao.

it was a delight to see him again. not that they'd ever admit it to the public, they actually missed him. they smiled to themselves, looking at the ground as they walked.

they were so deep in their thoughts that they didn't hear the noises of hilichurls nearby. it was only until they smelled fire was when they looked up, seeing a hilichurl charge at them with a wooden club on fire.

dodging quickly, they instinctively pulled out their two katanas and sliced them at a quick speed. hearing more approach them, they defeated the hilichurl before paying attention to defeating the rest.

luma placed their foot on the mitachurl's shield wall, bouncing off of it. they flipped to the side, slicing the back of it. it groaned in pain before dropping to the ground.

they sped towards the other hilichurls and sliced their katanas rapidly. so focused on the hilichurls in front of them, they didn't notice the cryo samachurl send icicle spikes in their direction.

they groaned in annoyance, feeling the ice pierce through their arms. turning around, they charged towards the samachurl and harshly swiped their katana through it, killing it instantly.

they turned around to see more and more approaching them. "xiao was right, there are a lot of them," they breathed out, not realizing they called upon him.

seeing the group of hilichurls, xiao took them out quickly, making luma quickly back away in shock. he took a few deep breaths before speaking to luma.

"are you crazy? what are you doing out here at night, especially during the lantern rite?" "i'm heading back to mondstadt. it's not like i need your protection!" they complained, irritated that he thought they couldn't fight for themselves.

his anger quickly faded when he saw the scrapes on their arms. "come on, i'll help you tend to your wounds." luma's eyes widened in confusion, looking at the blood dripping from the scars.

they complied, following him back to wangshu inn. there was complete silence between the two, making the tension even worse.

when they finally reached the inn, luma greeted verr goldet before heading upstairs with xiao. he took them to his room and told them to wait on the couch.

they waited patiently before he returned with a cloth and some medicine.

"you don't have to do this, you know? i'm fine," they said, almost in a whisper. he looked up at them for a second before returning to their arm. "you're going to get yourself hurt one day if you keep going at a rate like this. you need to take care of yourself better," he replied, pulling the cloth away as he heard them hiss in pain when it made contact with their scar.

slowly, he began wiping the blood away before applying medicine over the scars.

"stay here for the night. in the morning, you can return back to mondstadt," he told them, heading over to the cabinet to put the cloth and medicine away.

"i don't wanna bother you, i promise i'll be fine—" "you didn't seem fine when you were cornered by those hilichurls," he said, crossing his arms. "i was doing perfectly fine by myself!" they stood up, staring at him with a red glint in their eyes, indicating they were irritated.

"yet, you called for me. why is that?" "i didn't mean to! i was thinking out loud!" they exclaimed, bringing a hand to their head. xiao's piercing eyes softened in concern, seeing the lines on luma's hand.

"your hand," xiao spoke, grabbing their wrist lightly and held their palm out. it revealed the several scars on luma's palm. some looked old while the others looked fairly recent.

"where did these come from?" he asked, running his thumb against their palm subconsciously. "my...um...my katanas," they slowly explained. "why?" he breathed out.

"to feel something," they stated bluntly, pulling away their hand. he clasped both their hands in his, rubbing his hand over their knuckles soothingly.

he didn't realize he was leaning forward until he felt luma's breath fan against his face. glancing up to meet their eyes, he moved forward into a kiss. luma's eyes widened in shock, never thinking in a million years that he'd show any intimate acts with them.

their hand went to cup his face lovingly. they leaned against the sofa and allowed xiao to move further onto them. it didn’t seem like he knew how to kiss but learned quickly. luma’s hands ruffled through his hair, deepening the kiss.

“luma,” he whispered against their lips. “xiao…” he got them up and guided them to his room, still kissing each other along the way. he decided to take the risk in kissing their neck.

xiao knew he did a good job when he earned a soft moan from luma. “good boy, xiao,” they murmured, going straight to his cock. “luma,” he began, pulling away.

“these…feelings…i only feel them for you,” he explained, almost embarrassed. “xiao, you’ll have no idea how much love and admiration i feel for you. if only we could be together forever.” their voice quieted down.

“if only,” he said, frowning slightly. “but let’s cherish this moment now, i’m yours tonight,” he explained thoughtfully. “and i’m yours,” luma whispered, kissing him again.

he lowered them onto the bed, holding their lower back. they could feel his hot crotch against their pussy. “mm, xiao,” they moaned, palming his clothed dick. he let out a loud, breathy moan. he’s never been touched there before, and luma doing it made his mind spin with love and lust.

luma began pulling his shirt off, staring down at his abs. they were so shameless about it that it made xiao’s cock twitch. his eyes widened at the sudden feeling, but he knew only luma could do this to him.

“you’re gorgeous, xiao,” they said sweetly, looking at him admirably. “so are you, love.” the pet name caught luma off guard. it was a pet name they were completely and utterly weak for. hearing it from the yaksha they loved made it even better.

he slowly undid the hooks of luma’s corset. their cleavage could now be seen, making xiao’s ears heat up. luma just stared at him with love and devotion.

as xiao continued undoing their hooks, luma began pulling down his pants. just the slightest touches made xiao’s body twitch. he let out a silent groan and luma tried pulling his pants down more.

xiao pulled away to help them with his pants, letting his cock spring out. he’s that big and had no one to fuck all these years? luma felt happy to be his first.

“here,” luma whispered, flipping him over. he stared at them with wide eyes as luma adjusted so his cock could slide into their pussy.

“xiao,” they breathed out, moaning as his cock was so deep inside them. they clasped his hands in theirs, riding him to their hearts content. because their heart was so full of love for him.

suddenly, he flipped them over, pounding into them. “x—xiao!” they whimpered, moaning out.

the more they looked into his eyes, they felt tears form in their eyes. this wouldn’t last forever. they’ve been through enough pain, they deserve some peace. and peace is exactly what they made each other feel.

as tears poured down their face, xiao kissed them away. “don’t cry, luma. just enjoy the moment,” he whispered, moving down to peck their lips. they pouted their lips up to kiss him.

he groped parts of their body, giving a feel that he loved every part of it. xiao ran his fingers along their thighs, making luma shiver. “xiao.” they moaned his name.

“i’m right here, sweetheart. right here,” he said, cupping their face, he stroked their cheek with his thumb lovingly. smiling sweetly at them, luma had never felt more peace.

“xiao, i’m—” “me too, love. me too,” he whimpered, pounding into them faster. his hands gripped their ass to meet his thrusts. luma was drunk in pleasure, feeling their stomach tighten.

“xiao!” they moaned out, cumming around his cock. he let out a few whimpers before cumming deep inside them. the yaksha breathed heavily against their neck as luma cupped his head.

“no matter where we go, or who we meet, i’m yours,” luma confirmed, cupping his face and had him face them. “luma, i love you.”

“love you too, xiao—more than anything.”
