not-quite-a-Fill: MDZS, Jiang Yanli & her brothers

sorry, i wrote this then realized you specified the Untamed... not sure how well it stands with the differences between canons, but hopefully it fits some until something closer comes along!


When Jiang Yanli is twelve, and it’s been clear for a while that her childhood illness would never allow her to grow into more than the most mediocre of cultivators, she carries one brother on her back and one brother wrapped around her front all the way back home and whispers promises of warmth and safety through the dark - doesn’t fall, doesn’t falter, and no-one is ever the wiser.

At twice that age, she comes to stand in front of her brother and - polite and precise; not all of her parents’ lessons beyond her - demands respect on his behalf. Draws on the Jiang name and her own heart, and wills love like a shield around the three of them.
