Can you be still?
There's a void only silence can fill
Where you are is all that's real
When you're there, remember how it feels

boundary
"Careful not to get lost in its dark depths little one."
Nocturne's boundary is a maze of subterranean tunnels running deep into the desert. There are rooms ranging from small burrows to gigantic caverns, and the majority are close to the surface. Beware of adventuring too deep, as parts of it reach far into the earth.

⬩previous form⬩
"I used to haunt the world earnestly."
Before Arkies came along and ruined everything Nocturne used to dwell in a small oasis. Transformed from a migrating bird over the desert, she quite enjoyed lounging around as a spirit. She used to love other esks' company, often singing for them accompanied by her enchantment.
Once a gentle spirit, she spent a lot of time dreamily starring at the night sky.

previous boundary
Nocturne's original boundary was a little oasis hidden out of the way in a very remote part of the American Southwest. She would crawl up onto the cacti and gaze longingly at the moon.

enchantment
alluring night song
"Hear my lullaby wanderer, and sing with me."
Nocturne's enchantment broadcasts enticing lullabies far into the desert nights. Those who listen will each hear a different tune, one which will sound deeply melancholic. There is no intent behind this enchantment, merely a melodious expression of moments lost to time.
Some beings can feel soothed or wistful when hearing the alluring night songs.

Nature feature
sandstone pillars
Those adorned by Nocturne are real-life sized. They are often mistaken for common pillars when she burrows her body in the sand.

⊰❖⊱ She is the immovable mountain on which you build cities, having watched kingdoms rise and crumble. She is beyond grieving for what once was, yet not above the thrill of seeing the moon rise once again. ⊰❖⊱ Nocturne is an ancient spirit eroded by time who has long forgotten about her original form. She used to be a simple esk before she was compelled to undergo an abnormal transformation centuries ago by Arkies. Whilst Artemis enjoyed her life as an esk at first, her retransformation left her with a bitter taste. Nonetheless, she took her new responsibilities in stride, amassing an immense amount of musical knowledge that she guards preciously over the ages. She will exchange pieces of it in for music and songs. She spends a lot of her time burrowed in the sand with her nature feature towering over the surface, or roving the many tunnels of her boundary. Whilst she appreciates meeting other esk, she will not bother going out of her way to do so. Rather she will wait for others to stumble upon her in their travels. __ • written by Mondayecho • She has softened a bit since her second transformation. Her musical knowledge brings her so much joy, and she's even made a few friends. A renewed interest in the Conservatory has helped ease her discomfort with eternity. She finds peace in its endless novelty. Creating spaces there feels similar to weaving a song together. |

Nocturne was at first a bird, back when there were trees, in a blooming forest. An eternity ago, fire rained from the sky and erupted from the depth of the earth. Then the forest was gone, and so was she, the beautiful singing bird. By chance, or misfortune, she was found. A powerful soul charmed by her melodious voice. Thus, Nocturne was a spirit, and the forest a desert. The once bird traveled, making the desert her home. She lived a simple, desultory death. But Eternity was not kind to her blissful soul. And soon she wished she ceased to be entirely. Arkies, her second creator, was not satisfied, for Nocturne was ancient and wise, they decided she needed purpose to heal. They could not bear to part with her, such a waste of a beautiful soul, they thought. And in an instant, the once blissful spirit was transformed yet again, with more power and freedom than they ever wanted. With that came the anger, who were They to force her upon a path? No, she would find her own, if she had to live with purpose, then it would be by one she chose. |
She knew no ill intent came from the other, their intentions guided by love and self proclaimed righteousness. Yet she turned her back on them, for now. And so she took the desert by storm, using her immensity to shape the land to her will. She made her home down under, in caves filled with flowing sand. Now, all can hear her singing again, under the dark sky of the desert nights.
___
• written by Mondayecho •
An eternity later, Nocturne's weary soul has begun to heal. Her passion for rhythm, harmonies and melody has picked up again to fill the emptiness inside her. She travels to find new songs, and reflects that knowledge into her own musical enchantment. Along the way she's even met a few she could call friends. She mostly keeps to herself, but somehow feels less alone. The moon even calls to her again, though not quite the same as in her early years.

Arkies • second transformation creator
"What makes you think you are worthy of my friendship?" Arkies is a soul lost in time, who offered Nocturne both salvation and then condemned her to eternity. Artemis knows Arkies only wanted to help, to mend things. It doesn't mean she feels any comfort in their presence anymore. |
Zenzee • a friend; her mirror
Zenzee and Nocturne are opposites and yet the same. Zenzee uses her soothing melody enchantment for healing, while Nocturne appreciates music without expectation. Nocturne prefers solitude while Zenzee is well known for building community. Yet they respect each others' differences, and formed a friendship. They don't see each other often but somehow when they meet up it's almost always under a full moon. While they catch each other up on their lives they let their musical enchantments harmonize and play together as one melody.
Oasis • a friend
Oasis very literally stumbled onto Nocturne by accident once, and the two became friends. Nocturne finds Oasis endearing and Oasis loves exploring the underground caverns.
