♱ the house of the dead

House Glavielle has traditionally served Ishgard's dead. Perhaps you might be interested in gainful employment as a retainer, or in any part of the funerary process: digging graves, giving services and providing for wakes; florists, weavers and myriad tradecrafts are often in demand, among others. The House employs those with a checkered past as well -- if you can pass the interview process.House of Cards
If you have a keen eye for courtesies, you may notice that those familiar with House Glavielle never touch Ollert, and that he typically refrains from doing the same. Those who regularly deal with the dead have long been believed to hold a cursed touch, a superstition Ollert has no interest in correcting.Do you need a corpse investigated, cared for, or disposed of? Ollert will make the arrangements, and will assume the role of medical assistant himself.What is Dead May Never Die
Ollert maintains close ties to the Inquisition via his sister, High Inquisitor Pascale de Glavielle. As the executioner of many a condemned heretic, Ollert was both privy to and orchestrated a number of plots himself. Do you seek revenge, the guidance of one intimately familiar with scheming and interrogation, or are in need of someone with a nose for finding the missing?The High Cost of Living
Decades of martial campaigning have left scars unseen on Ollert. Despite his engaging and kindly demeanor, Ollert has been known to suffer from long bouts of melancholy. Rumors of his home life paint the image of a man who can only function while working. Conversations mentioning Camp Riversmeet or the Dusk Vigil tends to send the Earl into a fit.Though Ollert regularly attends confession himself, he has only referred to these events in vague terms, if at all. If you’ve an interest in investigating further into House Glavielle, this is but one of many vulnerabilities to exploit.Warden of the Silent Sorrow
The Black Warden listens to the last requests of the condemned, the final entity to give them their last rites. Transcribed into the armor and broadsword are the litanies of their prayers, painstakingly etched by the one responsible for taking their lives. The Warden stands as living reconciliation for the damned. Their words are his words; their cries are his cries; and when they fall silent, he is the one left to mourn their passing.The mail and guillotine by which Ollert performed his duties remains a religious sacrament, the armor reverentially cared for, the blade regularly honed. By what heinous blasphemy would cause Ollert to don the armor and wield the blade again?

ㅤ❝ㅤ People who remember court madness through pain, the pain of the perpetually recurring death of their innocence; people who forget court another kind of madness, the madness of the denial of pain and the hatred of innocence; and the world is mostly divided between madmen who remember and madmen who forget.” ㅤ❞ㅤ ― James Baldwin

ㅤ❝ㅤ Blood calls to blood
bad calls to bad, and through pain and sacrifice,
We draw the gaze of hidden eyes,
Of titanic movements beyond the stars.” ㅤ❞ㅤ ― John Hornor Jacobs
