The Blending of Luo Shen Fu with Modern Design: Exploring the Art and Craftsmanship of the Varmilo Goddess Luo Keyboard
The Goddess Luo keyboard is a unique masterpiece that blends classical Chinese literature with cutting-edge keyboard technology. Drawing inspiration from "Luo Shen Fu(Ode to the Goddess of the Luo River)," a poem composed over 1,800 years ago during China’s turbulent Three Kingdoms era by the poet Cao Zhi(Cao Cao's third son), this keyboard pays homage to Goddess Luo—identified as Zhen Ji, celebrated for her beauty and enigmatic presence. To aid Western consumers in appreciating this deep historical and cultural context, we've integrated symbols and text from the poem, reinterpreted through contemporary technology.

Goddess Luo
Excerpt from Ode to the Goddess of the Luo River
Historical Context and Intrigue
Zhen Ji was historically the daughter-in-law of Yuan Shao, an adversary of Cao Cao(the King of Wei Kingdom), and married Cao Pi(Cao Cao's eldest son), Cao Zhi's brother, after Yuan Shao's defeat. Goddess Luo is one of the most beautiful goddesses in ancient Chinese mythology. Cao Zhi compared Zhen Ji to her to praise Zhen Ji’s beauty and purity. Though "Ode to the Goddess of the Luo River" is Cao Zhi's lyrical tribute to Zhen Ji's beauty, the poet and Zhen Ji were never united, weaving a tale of unrequited love into the poem’s narrative
Keycap Design and Scroll-Style
· Overall Color and Material: Inspired by Jin Dynasty aesthetics of "purity" and "simplicity," the Goddess Luo Keyboard employs a pale aqua reminiscent of light bamboo leaves, symbolizing tranquility and depth, in line with the serene and mystical aura of the Goddess Luo. The keycaps are made from durable PBT material to ensure the longevity of text and designs.

· Left Key (Spring Pine): The pine tree in spring, symbolizing resilience and vitality, reflects the youthful vigor of Goddess Luo.
· Right Key (Autumn Chrysanthemum): The chrysanthemum in autumn, representing noble and solitary beauty, aligns with Goddess Luo's independent and pure character.
· Enter and Shift with Enamel Piece: Correspond to the iconic lines "As elegant like a swan, as graceful as a swimming loong" Here, "loong" refers to the mythical Chinese dragon, distinct from the Western dragon archetype. In Chinese culture, the loong is revered as a symbol of power, strength, and good luck, embodying regality and grace—attributes perfectly mirroring Goddess Luo's portrayed beauty.

Integration of Chinese and English Characters
The letter area combines Chinese and English characters, where each Chinese character originates from "Ode to the Goddess of the Luo River," and their initials correspond to the respective English letters, such as "其" (qí) for "Q". Additionally, these characters are styled in semi-cursive and regular script, popular during the Wei and Jin dynasties. Regular script was the preferred choice for official documents and scholarly works due to its orderly appearance, while semi-cursive was favored in personal correspondence and informal documents for its speed and artistic flair.

2024.05.21 09:41 ignaciokaboo Story of Adam and Eve: literal, parable, or mythological?

Is the Story of Adam and Eve literally true, parable, or pure myth?

According to The Book of Akash, the story of Adam and Eve is a Midrash (Jewish story for children meant to teach a moral lesson) based upon Pharaoh Ay (as Adam) and Queen Khiyah (as Eve), who lived in the walled Garden of Meru-Aten and were cast out of Meru-Aten by General Horemheb who wanted to become Pharaoh.The Book of Akash says:*Ay was a reincarnation of the the soul of the first Adam (Adapa of Eridu), who later reincarnated as Enoch, Adamu the second king of Assyria, Melchizedek king of Salem, and then as Ay son of Yuya.
*Ay was the father of Nefertiti who married Amenhotep IV who changed his name to Akhenaten. Nefertiti had six daughters and one son: Tutenkhamun (Tut). Akhenative closed down the temples to Amun, putting the priests out of business, and built the City of Aten (Atentaten), and also a royal residence called the walled Garden of Meru-Aten, in what is now Amarna, Egypt. Meru-Aten had fruit trees of all kinds, and a sacred fig tree dedicated to Hathor goddess of fertility. It also had a petting zoo and evaporation pond.
*After Tut died, Ay was made Pharaoh, at the age of 70, but his wife died years before. Soon after being made Pharaoh Ay's only son, Nakhtmin, died. This left Ay without an heir to the throne.
*Ay knew that if he begot another son, that son had to have the blood of Amenhotep III (father of Akhenaten) in order to have the divine right to the throne. So Ay marries Khiyah (Ankhesenpaaten) who was Queen as wife of her brother King Tut. Khiyah was the daughter of Akhenaten, the son of Amenhotep III. Amenhotep III was married to Ay's sister who was the mother of Amenhotep IV (Akhenaten). Akhenaten claimed to be Aten in the flesh and Ay was given the title "Father of the God".
*Horemheb, general of the army, desired to be Pharaoh. So he had Akhennaten poisoned, then Nefertiti, then Tut, and tried to marry Khiyah, but she rejected him and she tried to marry a Hittite prince but Horemheb had the HIttite prince assassinated as soon as he reached Canaan (then controlled by Egypt).
*Ay married Khiyah (Ankhesenpaaten later renamed Akhensenpaamun), so that his "claim" to the throne would be strengthened (her paternal grandfather was Amenhotep III and her maternal grandfather was Ay son of Yuya father of Nefertiti. Yes, Ay married his own granddaughter. Why? So that he could beget a son (Nakhtmin was dead) who had royal bloodline back to Amenhotep III, and thus had a "divine right" to the throne of Egypt.
*Akhensenpaaten/Akhensenpaamun (nicknamed "Khiyah") agreed to marry her grandfather because she was "tempted" by the Cobra Crown: symbolic of the Wisdom of the Gods. Only the King and Queen of Egypt wore the Cobra Crown. This is the meaning that Eve was "tempted" by the serpent. It was not real serpent, but a crown. It "tempted" Khiyah like diamond rings "tempt" women.
*Eve being made from the "rib" of Adam is a play on Hebrew words, since "penis" and "rib" is the same word in Hebrew: TSELA. Eve (Khiyah) was made from the TSELA (penis) of Adam (Ay): meaning she was made out of his seed (i.e. daughter or granddaughter).*The Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil does not refer to a literal tree, but to "carnal knowledge" (sex) which can be both for good and for evil.
*The Tree of Life is not a literal tree, but a symbol of the placenta. Every placenta has large veins that resemble a "tree" on it. YWHW "took away the tree of life" and prevented Adam and Eve from partaking of it: the meaning is that YWHW prevented them from conceiving a son (because what they were doing was a sin unto death).
*Egyptians in that time ate figs and wore fig leaves when they wanted to conceive a firstborn son. The firstborn son was heir of the family and responsible for taking care of the parents when they became too old to work. The fig tree was sacred to Hathor, goddess of wisdom. The Garden of Meru-Aten had a sacred fig tree. Eating figs and wearing sewn-together fig leaves (sacred to Hathor) was thought necessary to ensure that a couple would conceive a healthy first-born son.*Via his spies at Meru-Aten, General Horemheb discovered that Ay and Khiyah were trying to conceive a son. Horemheb then took his generals and raided Meru-Aten at night. They tied their swords with rags and poured oil on them and let them in order to see (flaming sword). Egyptian generals wore armor of polished brass and thus were called "Shining Ones" (Hebrew: "Cherubim"). Horemheb cast them out of the Garden of Meru-Aten into the desert where they perished. Their servants found them and buried them in sheep skins.*Horemheb becomes Pharaoh, but has no heir (he was gay).
*Ay was the reincarnation of Enoch. Enoch was made the Angel Metatron and adopted by YWHW as a firstborn Son (Third Book of Enoch). As Metatron he was "Mediator" between YWHW and human kind. But with his major sin as Ay, the Soul of Enoch lost his "station" as Metatron. He lost his inheritance. He became the Prodigal Son.
*Ay and Khiyah had to reincarnate, be born of literal virgins (Mary and St. Ann), live sinless lives, celibate lives, and Ay, being Adam/Enoch reincarnated, had to die on a fig tree in order to atone for the "original sin" of the Soul of Adam in the Garden of Meru-Aten in 1320 B.C. in Amarna, Egypt.*Jesus knew who He was. He called himself "the Son of Man" (a term for Enoch). He knew that he would have to die on a fig tree in order to atone for committing the "original sin" with Khiyah in the Garden of Meru-Aten: where Ay and Khiyah ate figs, and wore fig leaves, and tried to beget a son and heir to the throne
.*The punishment of Khiyah (who became Mary) was to lead a celibate life, and to watch her beloved Son be tortured and die on a cross made from a fig tree. This is why Jesus cursed a fig tree on His way to Jerusalem: because it reminded Him of the Original Sin, and that He needed to die on such a tree. He was not looking forward to it, but knew He had to do it in order to regain His lofty station as the Angel Metatron.
*Atonement was made, and the Soul of Adam/Enoch regained the station of Metatron (Mediator) and First-Born. Ay was the Prodigal Son who lost his inheritance, and Jesus was the Prodigal Son who was welcomed back by the Father.*How do I know this? Guessing ? No. I was to the right of Jesus, on another cross, and said to Him : "Lord, remember me when you come into your kingdom" and Jesus replied: "Truly I say unto you, today you will be with me in Paradise." My name was Ebion. I was an Essene, and the Romans crucified me for "stealing from Rome" (i.e. not paying taxes and telling other Jews not to pay taxes to Rome either). In the eyes of Rome I was a "thief". But I was a celibate and spiritual man, an Essene. I knew Jesus was the Messiah, and he called me to follow Him, but I refused because I did not want to lose my position as Treasurer of the Essenes in Jerusalem. I knew Who He was, but I could not leave my high station and the admiration of the other Essenes. How do I know this? I was told that by a psychic woman, and also Jesus appeared to me, emerging from a wall in my room, when I was 18. He was porcelain white, and had a crown of thorns. He moaned, and I saw a large drop of white blood running from a large thorn in His temple running down the right side of His head. As God and Jesus are My Two Witnesses: that is what I saw and what I heard.
*Jesus never wrote a book during His life. But He wrote a book through my hand, called The Book of Akash. It contains the truth about God and the Cosmos: the only two things that exist. Answers to all the mysteries of the Cosmos can be found therein.*The following YouTube video explains somewhat about the history of Ay son of Yuya, Khiyah, Tut, and Horemheb (played by a black man in the video). The video suggests that Ay had Tut killed in order to become Pharaoh. Not true at all. Ay loved his grandson Tut. It was Horemheb who poisoned Akhenaten (because he closed down the Amun priesthood and temples), and Nefertiti, and Tut, and Nakhtmin. Horemheb was a very evil man, and did evil, and gained the throne for himself by murder and strategy.
*The story of Adam and Eve in Genesis is a Midrash (Jewish moral parable story for children). It was based upon the real story of Pharaoh Ay and Queen Khiyah. The "details" of the story were hidden in metaphors (talking snake, Eve being made from the "rib" (tsela) of Adam, Cherubim with flaming sword, etc.). The story is not "myth" but based upon real people and real events in ancient Egypt in 1324 to 1320 B.C.
*Jesus has reincarnated five times. I met His fourth reincarnation, who was a miracle worker from Lebanon who was born in Jerusalem in 1909 and died in New York City in 1984. I first saw His face in 1977 when I was 16 years old. He visited me with lightning with no thunder, to my home, in the year 2005. His fifth incarnation is alive on Earth today, incognito. No...not me (God forbid!) but a man who works miracles. Jesus will incarnate for the 7th time in the 24th century (2300s), and, after Armageddon, will establish His Kingdom, called the United Order, a political, judicial, economic, and religious Order, that will last a thousand years.*We all have up to 6,000 lifetimes in order to reach Nirvana, and if we do not reach Nirvana by that time we shall be thrown into the Lake of Fire (when the Giant Red Sun engulfs the Earth) and simply cease to exist.
*Our current life is our Day of Account for our deeds in our last life, and our next life will be our Day of Account for our actions, good and bad, in this life.
*We are all judged by the Universal Law of Karma, and we are all judged according to our works, good and evil, and receive an exactly just recompense for our actions: good and evil. Whatsoever we shall sow, that also shall we reap.
Watch the YouTube video. It is a good introduction to the true historical story of Ay and Khiyah. But, again, please note: Ay did not harm Tut, but loved him. Ay did not marry Khiyah for sex, but to beget a son and heir who had a divine right to the throne of Egypt. It was a sin unto death, and they died. And they came back and atoned. Jesus is the Prodigal Son. Watch the video. It is not long. Please share this post with others. Thank you.

2024.05.21 07:56 Sea-Voice4903 Mechanics of the Timeline Merge (Theory)

When considering how Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom are related to previous games in the Official Timeline, the most credited theory among fans seems to be that both games take place after a merge occurs between the three Timeline branches. This post proposes how such a Merge could have occurred and the ongoing effects from it that set up the Era leading into both games.
It's important to detail the foundation of this theory. Before BoTW's release, the only game that the Devs could tell us came concretely before it on the timeline was Ocarina of Time. Skyward Sword was clearly concretely before that, as evidenced by the existence of the Master Sword, Goddess Statues, and three Springs. The Devs also stated that game specifically took place after Ganon(dorf) had been defeated and revived numerous times. Throughout the game's lifespan, this seemed to automatically mean that it couldn't follow the Adult Timeline as Ganondorf was only defeated twice, and at no point was revived. Then came Fujibiyashi's fated comment, which gave this theory its first bit of credibility. When asked which game or timeline BoTW followed after, he simply stated that it took place in a future so distant that it took place after all of them.
Upon the release of ToTK, what seemed to be a major contradiction was resolved. When making their statement that BOTW takes place in a timeline where Ganondorf had been defeated and revived numerous times, the Adult Timeline didn't seem to fail that essential criteria. Given that ToTK's Ganondorf comes into the world after all the previous games and not before (as evidenced by the fact that Hyrule Castle had remained untouched since the Distant Past), the Adult Timeline can be reconciled as he counts as a "reincarnation" or "revival" of Ganondorf's spirit.
What that does seem to preclude, though, is the idea that the "Era of the Wild" takes place in an alternate timeline that branches off from Skyward Sword. While an interesting concept, the idea that ToTK's Ganondorf is the first occurrence completely contradicts all the previously mentioned statements made by the Developers. It's easy to see why people think this may be the case, especially considering all between parrelels to OoT's plot and ToTK's. Indeed, one may even be tempted to say that "OoT" still precludes BOTW because ToTK is somehow just a more accurate retelling of OoT's story. Those parrelels will be explained in-depth (ba dum tiss) later on while still respecting the other statements made by the Devs.
The latest major statement made by the Devs is that a previous Hyrule could have been destroyed and thus its history with it. The dubious nature of the statement makes it much easier to leave that fact undecided and thus leave it up to the fans if they want to believe that. Specifically acknowledging the idea in the first place is major, when considering that there was no conversation or concrete discussion of this concept prior. Just entertaining the idea alone seems to create some serious inferences about Hyrule's lore.
One major theme tackled by ToTK is "rebirth". The evidence of Chinese influence on Zonai architecture is extremely obvious, and one of the most telling uses of iconography is the use of the Lotus. Throughout their architecture, Lotus Buds and Blossoms are ubiquitous. Within Ancient Hyrule Castle, the stained gladden window situated highest within the thrown room shows an unmistakable White Lotus. What might not be obvious to players (especially in the West) is the significance of that symbol.
In ancient Chinese mythology, the symbol of the upcoming Buddha was the White Lotus. During a specific uprising, fanatics even believed that a specific revolutionary was that very Buddha. When referring to this specific Buddha, this religious sect even used the Honorary Title ascribed to the foretold Buddha, "The King of Light", to describe the movement's leader. "The King of Light" is an obvious way to describe Rauru, too. He is literally a King who commands power over Light. As a parrelel to Buddhas in the sense of being those who lead the world out of perennial dark ages where civility is remiss; Rauru, too, seems destined to return civility back to a world that is experiencing a Dark Age of its own.
Given all that, how does BoTW's Zelda know of supposed events from ages past if they're from seperate timelines and that history was destroyed? ToTK's answer to this is Recall. Sonia is very explicitly referred to as a Priestess, and her talent is one shared by all of those who share her bloodline. As described by Sonia, Recall is the act of, "coaxing an object; asking where it is, where its been, and how it got to where it is. Then making it retrace its steps back in time." This would explain the gradual renesscaince over the eons of information, specifically glimpses into events from several different timelines as mentioned in Link's Knighting Ceremony. Those gifted with Recall would pull information throughout the land in said "glimpses", never having a full enough picture to realize that the events seen had taken place in different timelines. It would also explain how vivid imagery of the Triforce exists, despite the fact the Triforce seems to have played no role throughout this era's history.
The fact that so many souls exist in The Depths and that the Poe Collector Statues had their powers sealed away at some point seems to be greatly important. Despite the fact that characters directly mirroring those from OoT seem to have made their way into the world, one notable archetype missing is the Spirit of The Hero. What I'm proposing is that the Poes beneath are all lingering souls who were around during the occurrence of the Merge that were already dead, physically succumbed due to changes in terrain, or passed after being subjected to great confusion from the resulting Merge. The Statues would exist for the sheer purpose of ferrying this new excess of souls to the Pure World, but then Hyrule was left with a major problem. As foretold by Princess Zelda, Link bearing the Spirit of the Hero would emerge later on and pose a threat to the Demon King. If the Statues were allowed to go on unchecked, its likely that the precursors to the Shiekah had feared that its possible that The Spirit of The Hero would be lost to the Pure World instead of reincarnating. This explains the Statues having had their powers being sealed, and why at some point one of the Statues decided to sap the life away from one of the Yiga.
Another issue reconciled by the idea that all the timelines have merged is the Recorded History of Zora's Domain. The King of Hyrule and of the Zoras were said to have built the Great Zora Dam some 10,000 years ago in response to periodic floods that affected both Zora and Hylians. This allowed for the thereafter creation of the Zora's Domain that we see in BoTW. I took major issue with this being the canonical explanation for the creation of Zora's Domain, as BOTW was said to take place an unfathomable amount of time after OoT. The Zora King from OoT was said to be the 16th in a line of succession by Hyrule Historia for crying out loud! Calamity Ganon's previous resurgence itself is said to have taken place approximately 10,000 years ago, and yet again he has come back several times throughout Hyrule's history. If we take the creation of Zora's Domain to specifically mean a version specific to the Era of the Wild, this would alleviate the glaring inconsistencies in their tale. The Zoras in fact seem nothing but keen on keeping accurate historical records.
Of great interest to me is ToTK's new Stone Tablets. In one of them, Sidon specifically states that in a tale passed on by the Zora that the mountain range that now make up their home was long ago driven upward with so much force that it pierced the clouds above and caused torrential downpours to occur. These downpours are what created the Lanayru Wetlands, and I'm also assuming why Central Hyrule was depicted as a floodplain in the Forgotten Temple's Map Room. The later creation of the Great Dam would then have logically occluded enough water flow to allow Central Hyrule to dry back up, and allow the Zora to build their Domain. Behind the Waterfall that cascades from the pool that makes up the current Domain is a cave that roughly matches the shape of OoT's Domain, albeit much smaller and less detailed in features. It's within this cave that Vah Rutah's Helm is found.
Given the magnitude of force needed to cause the Lanayru Mountain Range to rise, one can only assume that an event of great magnitude had to have occurred to trigger this. Given Akkala's resemblance to the 1st TLoZ's map, it doesn't seem out of the question that the original landmass was more separated and that a collision between the Akkalla and Lanayru regions caused the shift. If the cave behind Zora Waterfall was the original Domain, then the lake its now built upon would have been previous the apex of the mountain range and former home to Jabu-Jabu. The major rifts in the north and western regions of Hyrule also seem to go without explanation, with the Forgotten Temple likely been built at ground level before their opening caused its collapse. The idea that the Merge was the cause of these events is conjecture, but it would give a satisfactory reason for the change.
While I could go on I would be curious to hear your thoughts. What do you think?

2024.05.21 06:53 Adventurous-Ear9433 Occult origins of Statue of Liberty

Occult origins of Statue of Liberty
The romans began as a pagan cult whos idol was Mithras, the sun God. The hat worn for Dagon. You can see the secret society who dedicated the statue to the US. And of course George Washington, Ben Franklin. Paul Revere, John Hancock, Albert Pike were all FM.
Mystery schools History "This is another type of warfare, new in its intensity, ancient in its origins, war by guerrillas, subversives, insurgents, assassins, war by ambush instead of by combat; by infiltration instead of aggression, seeking victory by eroding and exhausting the enemy instead of engaging him" JFK
Imo, its pretty obvious this is the age of deception were living in. Maya, Egyptian, etc called it period of darkness. Often youll find I or J which today has been changed to a 1. Most buildings, cathedrals will say "ANNO J543, i543" etc.
In Enochs writings Tartarus is said to be the lowest pit of Hell occupied by the worst demons imaginable so by association the newly indoctrinated come to believe like the truly indoctrinated that the demons of hell manifest as the people of Tartary who must be slain. The occult symbolism is everywhere but the majority think its jus coincidence or simply dont understand at all. Number 11 is represented in the eleven pointed star that the Statue of Liberty sits on which is called a hendecagram. I recommend checking out corporations logos & masonic symbolism, ie the GMail symbol matches the apron worn by Masons. Paramount Pictures represents the 22 angels at Mt Hermon.

2024.05.20 22:39 cathouseplant Feeling nervous about the “unique” dress I bought

Feeling nervous about the “unique” dress I bought
I’m back and finally said ‘yes’ to a Maria Lucia Hohan dress! It’s a silhouette entirely different than what I’d previously considered, and of course I’m now majorly overthinking. Would love your thoughts!
I wanted a less conventional, non-bridal dress for our September backyard wedding. This was the first dress that I tried on that felt fun and playful and I loved the sleeves & draping. It felt like a mix of Grecian goddess meets Star Wars meets Hedy Lamarr.
However, some of the feedback I’ve received starts and stops with the word “unique” and it’s getting in my head.
I normally prefer asymmetric, open necklines that show off my shoulders, arms, and collarbones. I’m worried about this silhouette because of that—worried it makes my shoulders look too broad, won’t photograph well, isn’t flattering, isn’t “formal” enough, etc.
Not pictured, but the dress has since been hemmed to floor length and waist has been taken in slightly. Of course boob tape needed!
Would love feedback as right now I’m so tempted to start over & keep looking!

2024.05.20 22:39 Historical-Good-8563 Latest buzz on Ranbir Kapoor-Sai Pallavi’s Ramayana

Director Nitesh Tiwari is creating a grand movie based on the mythological epic, Ramayana. The film will star Ranbir Kapoor as Lord Rama and Sai Pallavi as Goddess Sita. Recently leaked pictures from the set have already generated significant excitement online.
There is speculation that the title might change from Ramayana to God Power, though this has not been confirmed. Additionally, reports suggest that Sonia Balani, known for her role in The Kerala Story, joined the cast. However, we are still waiting for official announcements regarding this.
The movie is reported to be one of the most expensive productions in Indian cinema. It features a star-studded cast that includes Sunny Deol, Rakul Preet Singh, and Lara Dutta in important roles. Stay tuned for further updates on this highly anticipated cinematic venture.

2024.05.20 19:51 Any-Assignment-1844 [ALL][TOTK] My Zelda Sequel Idea

I know the devs said we’re not getting the same Link and Zelda after ToTK, consider this more of a thought experiment.
This is kind of just scattered thoughts, not a step by step.
It would stituate around Zelda researching the “old hylian ways” and rediscovering the Triforce. Demise would come back, drain the Master Sword of it’s power and curse Link (reset) and then throw him off far into the distance leaving us separated from Zelda again. We’d wake up west of the entire Hyrule map in the ruins of Holodrum or Labrynna. I think the castle town ruins here would be the tutorial area. (EDIT: I think there’s something to be said for maybe Holodrum to be thriving and full of people [as a reflection of the barely rebuilt Hyrule] instead you’re injured body is brought in and treated by their Princess and you reach the shrine through her castle.)
You’d have your paraglider from the very beginning, so it’s way more rudemintary. Only one shrine, and it’s more of a mini-dungeon. Here, you will get your first “dungeon item” (details on those later.) After beating the shrine, you’ll recieve a call on your Purah pad (imagine Metal Gear Codec,) it’s from Zelda and she regails you with how the new champions rescued her and that she’s safe.
For all intents and purposes now you have access to a “Zelda Companion,” of sorts where she’ll provide flavor text for things you examine or take a picture of. Nothing hand holdy, all flavor. You’ll be asked to use your new item to climb a nearby tower, from there we’ll scan the first area, get some sweet words from Zelda and a title screen looking out towards Hyrule (you can see Death Mountain and the Floating Hyrule Castle from here.) This is where your journey truly starts. Only one item in this even bigger world. Starting out with the Freedom of the new Zelda beginnings and the limitations of the old.
You’ll be able to discover two or three other major dungeon items to aid in traversal and you’ll have to rely on horses a lot more (Your horse will always appear when you call.) Kinda of like a Witcher 3/Zelda hybrid. More large settlements. Completely reconstructed Castle Town.
A couple bullet points: - The Oracles will tie in - Fi maybe comes back and helps with the Master Sword’s reempowerment - Link will gain the Triforce of Courage(possibly affecting in-game battle; a timed power up maybe) this would be affected by the open ended story progression just like the Master Sword quests from the previous two - The Triforce will be key to defeating Demise - Hylia makes a genuine appearance
Potential Dungeon Items: - Hookshot I think this is pretty obvious. With no runes or arm abilities anymore we need something to make climbing more bearable. You can grapple on any surface (minus things like shrine walls.) Some shrines might be larger “mini-dungeon” types that give you a longshot upgrade. And maybe a regular dungeon for a dual hookshot upgrade. - Iron Boots Contentious I’m sure, but hear me out. They’re ancient Hylian magic iron boots that do slow you down when outside the water, but when you’re in the water you walk and run normally. Dual utility for easy underwater exploration and above ground wind puzzles. Maybe you could switch the function even. (Obviously I’m implying there’s way more to do underwater now. With swimming vertically as well.) - An Instrument Wether it’s the OoT itself, the Goddess Harp, or an original. It would do things like change the weather, open specific doors, raise and lower tides. Important/powerful songs are found in dungeons, while more niche effects could be found organically in the world (Like from Kass or the Rito singer girls, or the Troupe Musicians.) - A tool Kit This would act as a substitute for fuse. Enough said.
As far as mechanics go, I’d like a way to favorite weapons and clothes I use frequently, and have a button to change clothes from a quick bar; or swing the other way and make it more punishing by requiring sleep to change clothes. Just make weather a bit more forgiving if you do that. In lieu of a realistic way to use a tool kit on the fly, perhaps we can craft our own arrows.
Hope these ideas pique someone’s interest.

2024.05.20 16:12 The_Winter_War9 [M4A] A Dance With Death (Mythological)

(Having Discord gets you first in line)
In the distant past, where gods and goddesses ruled over the land of man, there was one being that no one knew anything about. The being was able to strike fear in the hearts of mortals, reminding them of their inevitable fate. His appearance gloomed the very skies, making even the animals and flowers weep for what was to come. The being was cloaked in black and swifter than Zeus's lighting, able to travel between the realms at a moment's notice without anyone knowing he was there. This being was called Death, an ancient primordial that came into existence after Ymir was slain by the sons of Bor, and his body became the very ground mortals walk on. The emergence of Death was a fickle thing for the gods, since each pantheon had a different view of the being. Most of the Greek Pantheon held little regard for Death, simply seeing the being as something that controlled and feared mortals in the most primal way. The Norse pantheon was different, holding a slight fear of the primordial being, with Odin trying to find ways to hopefully avoid the prophesied fate he saw for himself. And as for the Egyptian pantheon, they didn't fear or hold Death in little regard, seeing the being as a fact of life that would come for everyone eventually and wasn't something to be avoided.
While the relationship between Death and most of the pantheons was slightly rocky, it would all escalate with three simple events. For the Egyptians, it was the death of the mighty Osiris, but his fate didn't change their view of death in the slightest. The Norse grew more fearful of the primordial being after the tragic death of Baldr, something orchestrated by the trickster god Loki. And as for the Greeks, they would finally see Death as a true threat after they received word that the great god of the wilderness, Pan, was dead. Now having confirmation that even the great gods of Olympus could be felled by the primordial being, the Greek pantheon called for a summit, demanding that all the gods meet in order to discuss the arising issue with Death. At the summit, only the Norse and Greek pantheons arrived, with the Egyptians wanting nothing to do with the possible scheme that was possibly going to be planned. Alongside their absence were the absences of Hades, Persephone, and Hermes, gods who had no slight with Death and weren't about to betray him. Nonetheless, the summit would commence, with the remaining gods concocting a plan in secret.
After a mere fortnight, the scheme concocted by the gods would commence—a scheme to hopefully deal with Death and prevent the deaths of any more immortal beings. While the actual plan was lost upon the deed being completed, the folly of the gods would be successful, and Death would be captured. The being would be chained behind several layers of stone in a hidden grotto, his limbs held in place by vines and a mystical rope, preventing any movement. Despite his capture, the work of Death wouldn't be slowed, as new gods such as Thanatos would come into existence the very same day, continuing the work of the primordial. But Death himself would remain chained in the hidden grotto, placed in a mystical slumber, and simply lie dormant until someone freed him.

Hello there, everyone! I'm here today with a small prompt that I hope you'll all heavily enjoy! With the early access release of Hades 2 and the release of Epic: The Underworld Saga, I've been getting back into mythology, which inspired me to write this post! As you can tell, this world is set in a place where Greek, Norse, and Egyptian myths collide, forming a world ripe with gods, heroes, and monsters that can be explored! Also inside this world is a being simply known as Death, a primordial being that has been around longer than any major pantheon and plays a role in every mortal's life! At least, that was until he was captured by the gods and left to rot in a hidden grotto! But that's where your character comes in, my friends!
Since this roleplay is taking place in a large mythological world, feel free to get creative with your characters! You could play as one of the existing gods, a hero of legend, a villain of infamy, a magical creature, or even just a regular person! The choice is fully up to you, my friends! But don't be afraid to get creative when it comes to your character! Perhaps you decide to play Demeter, one of the key orchestrators of the plot against Death, who's plagued with guilt and decided to release the being? Maybe you decide to take the shoes of a mighty Jotun who stumbles upon the cave and decides to release Death in exchange for a favor? Or possibly you just play a mortal who becomes stuck in the grotto and finds this primordial being? The choice is up to you!
PSA- A ref of your character or a description would be appreciated. If you have any questions, feel free and ask.

2024.05.20 08:40 Odd-Recognition-2606 Fellas, What Gacha Game Has The Best Loading Music and Title Screen?

This is a fun question because most of the time spent actually on all the gachas I play is usually burned on loading in the games, and it is such a hassle sometimes. However, the music gacha games have more than make up for it, so I would like to know what gacha game has your favourite loading music and title screens! Also, some games have kickass loading animations! Here are my rankings out of all the gachas I play right now.
  1. Goddess of Victory: Nikke. Favourite music because it is so melancholic, and encapdulates the story of the game perfectly. Very emotional and amazinf. Rapi on the title also looks sick with the small movements. Came for the Nikkes, left with this game's soundtrack and story.
  2. Blue Archive. Funny enough, I started Blue Archive yesterday. I have become SO axquainted to the loading screen because of rerolls. Not only did I absolutely fall in love with the LoFi beats it pumps out, but the animation is amazing, and I especially like how it cycles through the pictures.Swimsuit Hanako rerun when?? If someone can answer that for me too that would be fire lol.
  3. Mega Man X Dive. Specifically the Global. Since global came out, they added Crystal Snail's theme as the loadijg screen and it is such a good track, especially updated to modern music styles, and the remix of Mega Man X's title screen is actually so fire. Also, while the title isn't animated, it looks absolutely stunning, with RiCo pulling off such an amazing lead.
  4. Honkai Star Rail. The first gacha I played. The train looks AMAZING, and the song gets stuck in my head a lot. It sounds so sad but hopeful at the same
  5. Project Sekai. Being a rhythm gacha, it makes sense the music for the title screen is fun and great. The title screen looks alright as well. 6.Sword Art Online: Integral Factor. The title screen looks amazing with Asuna and female deuteragonist, and even though it's unrelated, bonus points for the login being exactly the same as thr NerveGear login in the anime. Song is pretty fire too.
  6. If I recall correctly, Bandori. The music is alright for it being a rhythm game, and I like the neat touch of editing the title screen based on the current event or banner taking place.
  7. Genshin Impact. Definitely a good loading screen, but I personally prefer the others above it. The music isn't as emotionally effective on me, ans the animation looks amazing, but it just doesn't click as much with me.

2024.05.20 03:45 mining_moron A Primer on Kyanah Religion: Part I Road to Hope

It seems like you guys like gods, so maybe you'll like this too! I tried to do something original and alien here...though maybe I failed idk.
In general, Kyanah are a massively polytheistic society, though their religious practices can't be divided into discrete religions with labels. Different gods have different geographical ranges where they are popular and while religious packs generally pick one or a few deities to worship based on their interests and disposition, they generally don't deny the existence of any gods they aren't actively worshiping--a list that may change over the years, depending on what the members of a pack agree works best for them. There is no definitive list of all recognized deities, especially as legendary historical figures and characters from popular media are often venerated in much the same way, blurring the lines considerably. There are gods that have had a consistent following for thousands of years, and short-lived meme gods that emerge from some popular trend, internet joke, or other bit of popular culture, are unironically worshiped by millions for a few years, and are then forgotten just as quickly--or, rarely, become mainstream.
For instance in Ikun, the three most popular deities are the god Iok, seen as a shrewd negotiator and diplomat, often mediating between other gods; the god Akirut, seen as a tinkerer, a creator of things, and an aggressive optimizer; and the goddess Tyorun, seen as a brave and relentless fighter who struggles against the odds to keep what she likes in the universe (this will make sense later). They all have dozens of temples in Ikun, and there are at least 80 gods who have 1 or more temples. The obscure Western Sector water goddess Kya briefly shot into the top three in Ikun around Y940 as a result of being a character in the popular TV show The New Gods of Ikun, gaining millions of worshipers in a few years, but losing most of them in a few more--it's no coincidence that in Road to Hope there are like three girls named Kya who hatched around that time! Much like Earth deities, there is no hard evidence that these gods exist, but it's also very tricky, if not impossible, to prove that they don't (and brings to bear questions about what it means for something to "exist" in the first place).
However, Kyanah don't necessarily see their gods as giant immortal Kyanah sitting in the sky working miracles. Popular media may depict them that way sometimes because it makes for better storytelling and characterization, but actual theological texts do not anthropomorphize them in such a manner. Essentially, the gods are seen as the natural result of an iteratively self-optimizing universe, intelligent processes that seek to refine and perfect the universe. Kyanahs' conception of the actual nature of these gods, whether they form packs with each other, are packs themselves, or are simply atomic beings, also varies greatly depending on culture, region, and each pack's own beliefs. But in general, as scientific discoveries have made it more and more clear that the universe is bigger than just them and their world and that Kyanah aren't special, belief systems favoring less anthropomorphized and relatable gods have become dominant, especially in the southern hemisphere.
The formation and existence of gods in Kyanah religious thought is intimately linked to the worship and belief in said gods. Theogenesis occurs when Kyanah start to believe in some god, the act of associating some set of divine processes and forces with a name, creating the god with that name. It's not so much that they believe this literally creates a god from nothing, so much as they are grouping together pre-existing divine processes under a name to better understand, categorize, and reason with it. The prevalence of belief in some god, and the power of said god, are correlated, or even one and the same, in many societies, as the power of a god is directly related to the extent that they influence the universe, which obviously includes the Kyanah themselves. Similarly, forgotten gods, no longer worshiped, are essentially dead gods, whose names have lost their meaning and thus their power. In a way, the Kyanahs' conception of gods can be seen almost as divine memes so powerful that they are sentient and influence the universe, with "memes" obviously referring to the broader sociological meaning, not funny pictures on the internet. Indeed, the lines between gods, socio-cultural memes, and sufficiently influential fictional characters often blur together in Kyanah culture, though notably, treating any living Kyanah as divine is usually but not always considered blasphemous, and packs who claim to be divine or have a divine member will offend most cultures and almost certainly be regarded as a fraud. Many religious scholars have devoted their lives to trying to make "divine atlases" that map not only the geographical, but also the ontological ranges of the countless gods, trying to pin down exactly what each name refers to.
The purpose of the gods--to iteratively refine and optimize the universe--ties in with the Kyanah concept of afterlife: not a place or alternate dimension that you go to after death, but the idea that you can be part of the next iteration of the universe. Entities that make the universe a better place--which for living Kyanah and their packs, naturally includes living morally (whatever that means to the culture in question) and fulfilling their role in life well--will be kept around by the gods in the next iteration, while entities that make it worse will be removed. In this way, Kyanah religious beliefs promote moral behavior (again, whatever that means to the specific culture in question) via the positive reinforcement of being with their packs again in a more optimized universe if they are good, and the negative reinforcement of never again being with their packs if they are not.
Thus the concept of anything resembling Hell is largely unknown in most cultures, and the closest thing to Heaven is the so-called Final Iteration, an idea that is widespread in some cultures, that the gods will eventually finish their cosmic optimization problem and create the perfect universe; believers in the Final Iteration are also split in whether it will be devoid of suffering and imperfections, or whether it is impossible to reduce such things beyond a certain amount, and the gods will eventually hit that limit. However, other societies reject the idea of a Final Iteration and believe that while the gods may gradually improve the universe and get asymptotically closer to the best possible one, they will never actually reach it. Some cultures believe there was a First Iteration and gods were there from the beginning, and there may or may not be a Final Iteration; others believe that there was no First Iteration and at some point gods arose by chance from random noise and began to optimize the universe in a guided manner, and may or may not reach a Final Iteration; others still believe that the gods have spent an infinite number of iterations trying to optimize the universe, and will never finish. Some believe that even the gods don't know if they will ever finish their task. There are also differing views on whether the gods are, collectively, perfect optimizers that will always improve the universe by some nonzero amount in each iteration, or imperfect optimizers that, while in the long run converging towards an ideal universe, may make some flawed decisions on the way, leading to some iterations being worse than their immediate predecessors. Some theologians and cultures reject the idea of Iterations entirely, instead adhering to a linear cosmology where the universe tends to get more complex and orderly over time, and the existence of gods--beings of extremely high, if not unlimited, complexity and orderliness--is an emergent phenomenon resulting from this, the resulting gods will more efficiently guide the increasing optimization of the universe. However, this view has been declining over time, especially in the past century or two, when Kyanah science has revealed the ultimate fate and heat death of the universe--or at least the current Iteration. Nevertheless, there are still millions of adherents who have found ways to justify this with their belief in a universe that increases in complexity and order.
These views have naturally made Creation myths a relative rarity on the Kyanah homeworld. It seems that primitive societies often believed that their world was eternal and infinite, with no beginning and no end in either space or time. Looking at the world it's easy to see why: it's significantly larger than Earth (and thus has more distant horizons), with vast biomes, no oceans or forests to break things up, few mountains (unless you're near an impact range), and seemingly endless seas of scrubland, desert, or plains stretching into eternity, hence primitive Kyanah often assumed that there was simply no beginning and no end to the world, and it's not too big of a leap from there to the idea that the world never began and will never end--in this cosmology, apparently the sun wasn't a unique object; suns rose out of the ground in the morning in different parts of the world, then burned out, fell, and sank into the ground at night. However, as Kyanah increasingly understood the universe and their place in it, more and more of the patterns underlying reality became clear--that they were not on an infinite flat plain with suns rising out of the ground every day, but on a spinning ball moving around one large sun, and there were many, many spinning balls out there spinning around their own suns--and a cyclical cosmology began to prevail over a linear one--though that is even less conducive to Creation myths.

2024.05.19 23:06 Conscious-Lemon-9816 Do my character motivations seem clear in the intro scenes?

Context:
I’m rewriting my WIP for the fifth (and hopefully last) time to make the story more character driven and make my characters motivations stronger. I’ve changed the first three chapters so many times I have no idea what’s good anymore. It’s a portal fantasy Reverse Harem with fated mates. You only meet two love interests in the intro (and one of them only shows up towards the very end of the set up), but I am just looking to see if my FMC's motivations make sense, or if I have made the Set Up too convoluted and given her too many goals.
**Please note the scenes I am posting have been written as an outline, and is not intended to read line by line like a finished manuscript. I will be writing it in First person POV when I finish plotting.**
Backstory (TLDR; Character A needs to gain access to the Other World so she can make a bargain to trade her Father's life for hers, we open on the 6th anniversary of him being taken, her 24th birthday. I ramble on for quite a bit so if you would like to get right into it please skip to Intro/Set Up)
Motivation:
Character A’s Father was stolen by otherworldly creatures 6 years ago and taken to their lands. Character A harbours guilt and blames herself because she disobeyed her Fathers rules and snuck into the woods with her friends on her 18th birthday to go swimming. Her Father came looking for her and that is when she witnessed him being taken.
In the area they live in, disappearances around the full moon were common, with many losing their loved ones over the last 50 years with no explanation. There were a lot of theories of aliens, bigfoot, cougars, werewolves, and only her Father claimed that magic wielding creatures were responsible.
Character A grew up being told stories about these lands, how the creatures enslaved humans to play in their games until they died for entertainment. Her Father told her magic was real but it was to be feared and to run from any sign of the unusual, forbade her from leaving her house after sunset or from ever going into the woods, and he always tried to keep her close to him.
He had a hard time holding down a job due to the grief he felt from losing Character A’s mother during childbirth and when he would drink he would make it known that he resented Character A for derailing his life, because now he was burdened with protecting her instead of living as a family. Her mother was buried there and her father refused to move away from her body. Character A internalized this, feeling guilty for being the reason he struggled so much, and spent her life caring for her father the way she would a child. Cooking, cleaning, paying bills, etc. She would even get revenge on his bosses for firing him. Her Father always claimed it was never his fault, that they were abusing their power and couldn’t handle somebody smarter than them, and losing his job would send him into an alcoholic depression.
Character A heard her Fathers words, and combined with the way out-of town business men had turned her small mountain town into their own personal resort, developed a deep hatred for anyone that held power. She would find little ways to get revenge on her Fathers bosses, and when she was older, spent her spare time getting revenge on the trust fund kids who didn’t care if their actions had consequences for the people living there.
She had a big dream of leaving her small town and exploring the world, but she felt responsible for her Father. She took care of him, and she was afraid of what would happen to him if she left, but she knew she was suffocating under him. Although her guilt and love for her father prevented her from seeing the full truth of what he was, narcissistic and abusive, deep down she knew and she became restless under his restriction.
When she was young she believed his stories but as she got older and never saw any evidence to back up his claims, the more she chaffed against his rules and started sneaking out. She wasn’t dumb, she always carried a knife and bear spray. She read up on what to do if you encountered a predator in the forest, and she begun stealing what little freedom she could for herself. She didn’t believe in magic, wolves and mountain lions were the only things that made sense to her.
Wound:
After her Father is taken Character A is broken. Everything her Father said was true, all he was trying to do was keep her safe, but she disobeyed him and now he was taken to a magical land to be tortured by never ending games. She is distraught and depressed. She begins sleeping in the woods, hoping to be taken too so her pain can end.
A few months later, at the end of summer, her best friend and boyfriend, the only people her father approved of her spending time with, tell her that they still plan to leave for the year long trip they were all going on. They want to start their lives, they think Character A has become delusional in the wake of her Fathers disappearance, they can’t be stuck there taking care of her, they can’t handle her emotions, they need a fresh start. She realizes they have been having an affair, she internalizes them telling her she is too much to handle and that she is unlovable. She was a burden on her father and then a burden on them. She doesn’t see them again for six years.
Present Day:
Character A has spent the last six years trying to get to the other world during the full moon. The weeks in between she spends physically training, researching anything she can, working just enough to cover her bills for the month, and distracting herself with casual flings or sleeping with the trust fund kids in order to gain access to something she wants to steal from them as payback for something they have done. She never lets herself get too close to anyone, knowing that she plans to disappear, but she partied with whoever is willing to distract herself until the next full moon.
Every passing year on her birthday she grows more and more desperate. She begins researching magic spells and rituals that might show her the entrance to the otherworld. She finds a newly discovered mushroom being sold that claims to help you see what is hidden from human eyes.
Character B:
A month ago Character B was sent from the other wolrld to retrieve Character A. She is the descendant of a lost royal line and they have received a vision from the goddess that she is her Heir, the key to defeating the darkness and restoring balance to the land. Character B does not live a good life in the other world, he is nothing but a glorified prisoner in his own life, and all he’s ever wanted was a family of his own, but because of the queen and his father, he cannot have that. He avoids confrontation, always choosing to run from his problems instead of fight. He first lays eyes on Character A as she is driving a motorcycle into a lake.
He is unsure if the vehicle is supposed to drive under water, so he waits a moment before trying to do a rescue. He doesn’t know it’s her until she swims up into the shore, and begins gathering weeds from the lakebed. he thinks she’s the most beautiful thing he’s ever seen and can’t imagine dragging her back to his world where she could be in danger. He wants to watch the curious human for a bit longer to see what she does
He silently follows her and watches her climb into a window and place the weeds around a man sleeping in a bed, then creep down the hallway to an office where she unlocks a safe and pulls out a stack of papers. She then meets up with somebody, hands over the papers with a hug, then walks into the forest.
She walks and walks and he realizes she heading towards the portal and gets nervous, until she reaches a tree with five different coloured ribbons tied around one branch. She takes a new yellow ribbon , adds it to the branch and continues walking until she reaches another tree with ribbons where she adds another ribbon, then walks to the very centre of both trees and sits down. She softly hums a tune to herself.
She seems relaxed, strong and confident, he thinks this must be some new human ritual he hadn’t heard of yet and her humming is soothing to him, but he notices a shiver. He feels a strong need. To wrap her up in a blanket and make her warm. He decides right then that he cannot take her back and ruin her peace, that he himself would not go back, that he would befriend her and they would hide together her in her world and they would be safe and happy. It was pointless trying to fight anyway, they were never going to win and it would be better for them both to be safe and far away from the evil queen.
The next morning he follows her to her favourite coffee shop, glamoured to look more human and remove his pointy ears, and introduces himself as a man trying to get away from his overbearing parents and family he doesn’t get along with.
Intro/Set Up
Chapter 1
-Character A is thinking about how she has to get laid tonight, because it will be her last chance before she disappears and probably dies. Character A is stealing some documents and a bunch of cash from a safe in The Guys home office, she pulls a bag out of her pocket and with it, a card for the bookstore she works at flutters under his desk. She puts the documents and money in the bag and bends down to pick it up when she notices the family photo on the desk and she stops.
It is a picture of The Guy, His Son that she stole and crashed his bike into a lake last month, and The Other Son that she may have killed nine months ago when she burned his cabin down. She is filled with rage when she looks at the photo and thinks she doesn’t regret what she’s done. Character B calling her phone snaps her out of it and when she hears someone come home, she leaves, but she forgets the card.
-She stops at the bookstore to give Coworker 1 the documents and money. Coworker 1 says she will never be able to thank her, that this was the last thing she needed she could get out of town. Character A tells her good luck and to give them hell. Coworker 1 is leaving town tomorrow, she connected with a journalist who can help her expose The Guy and once she does she won’t be able to come back. Coworker 1 is very grateful to her, and Character A makes sure to tell herself that they aren't friends, because friendship requires a level of vulnerability that Olivia could not give her, but she knew Coworker 1 was a good person and deserved so much more than what she got when The Other Son sexually assaulted her at work while His Son filmed it. How when she received a payout in exchange for her silence they knew it wasn’t the first time. They were determined to find further evidence, and they did. Signed NDA’s from all of the employees they had paid off in the past.
Character B joins them at the store. Character A is petting her beloved bookstore cat and goes to pull some treats out of her bag. Her hand brushes against a vial of red and white mushrooms and Character A hopes that they are the key she has been searching for. For six years she has felt like she has been brushing up against the edge of something, but has never been able to get herself to the other side. She was deep in a witchcraft discussion forum when somebody posted about a new discovery of mushrooms, one that allowed the ingestor to see through the Veil, to show them all the magic they cannot see. The poster was pretty insistent that it wasn’t just a trip, that they were able to see threads of magic. After years of failed meditating, drinking teas, burning herbs,and chanting spells around the ley line conversion and not finding anything, what did she have to lose with some magic mushrooms?
Character B calls her name, startling her from her thoughts and she knocks over a box of alien and bigfoot merch. Coworker 1 cracks a joke about being careful with the product or else the alien truthers will riot, Character A rolls her eyes at the people who flocked there in search of the wrong thing. Character B apologizes for startling her and says he was just admiring one of her new Boxwood Topiaries, three trees of varying height that ended with hearts on top, and she says she finished it yesterday.
She loves plants but, like a cat, she can’t commit to having them because she doesn’t plan to be around long, so she does topiary art as a compromise, and the extra money she earns goes towards buying her herbs and mushrooms. Her Father never managed to save much money and she wasn’t left with much after he was taken. She had to use her savings replacing the furnace in her home shortly after her Father was taken, and now she only worked enough to keep her living until the next paycheck. She spent the rest of her time training and researching. Preparing to go to Wonderland in search of her Father.
Character B is making friends with the cat, having charmed it onto its belly, and Coworker 1 gives Character A a knowing look. Character A shakes her head, says they are just hanging out, nothing serious. Coworker 1 says he could be good for her. She knew they had been hanging out, that Character A had let him stay at her house for the last two weeks. She wasn’t judging though, Character A seemed lighter around him, and he was so nice. She had seen him helping Mrs. Smith with her groceries the other day.
Character A thinks that was what initially warmed her up to him. Coworker 1 was right, she never brought guys home, but the first week that he was here he had never failed to notice when people needed help and always offered to lend a hand. Plus he was fun, and fun to look at, and he was always looking for a new adventure. He took her mind off of what a failure she was for not saving her Father yet, and he seemed relatively harmless. So when he said he had never seen her favorite comedy movie she just HAD to take him home to watch it. And he hadn’t left, she hadn’t asked him to. It was becoming a problem. Because she was going to disappear tonight, and a small part of her was beginning to feel sad she would never see him again. It was why she hadn’t slept with him yet, she knew she enjoyed his company just a little too much and wouldn’t risk any further attachment. Character A agreed that he was a good person but emphasized that it was just casual. Coworker 1 says alright, she will back off, and she will let them get to the party. She needs to finish packing and wants to leave as soon as possible. Character A says she understand, they hug and say goodbye.
Chapter 2
-Character A and Character B are walking to the Board Game party. They are dressed as Clue characters, she is Miss. Scarlet and Character B is Mr. Green. They had played every board game she owned, which was a lot of them, in order to decide what to dress up as for the Your Favorite Board Game Party. He turned out to be a good competitor and got way more into the games than she expected him to.
He hands her a cinnamon bun, her favorite, and tells her he had made a whole batch for her, claiming that he knew she hadn’t gotten one since they were hiking that morning, and all she had eaten that day was trail mix and beef jerky and he refuses to let her party on an empty stomach. She happily takes a huge bite, grateful for this one thing she loved before she left this world forever.
He says he’s been thinking and asks her to go traveling with him. She almost chokes on her food. His words rush out and he assures her he has money and can pay for everything and they can go anywhere she wants. Her heart sinks into her stomach. Before her Father went missing, an offer like that from a hot guy would have been her dream, but she couldn’t now, or ever. She looks at the half eaten cinnamon bun, thinks how he had made them because he had gotten coffee with her every morning for the last three weeks, and he saw how every Saturday and Sunday morning she would get a cinnamon bun the size of her face and eat it. She looks at the Green jacket he wore and remembers laughing in the thrift shop as he tried on a full leather catsuit while they searched for the perfect outfit for the party. He was too good. She begins to think that in another life, they could go. They could adopt an adventure cat and take it with them on their world travels, but that wasn’t possible for her. She wasn’t staying in this world, and even if she was, she was too messed up. Too broken. Too much of a burden. And she could never give all of herself to one person ever again, she did it twice, and was broken by both of them because she was too much.
She decides he’s gotten too close and she needs to push him away, so in the hopes that it will scare him, she explains that she can’t leave because her Father was stolen by a magical creature and taken to the Other World. She tells him the entire story her father told her, of creatures luring people to the Other World and keeping them for the Queen's entertainment, forced to be pawns in her games. They are ruthless and obsessed with games and everything reeks of roses. She tells him its her fault that he got taken and she can’t live with herself until she either gets him back or gets revenge for his death.
Character B begins pleading with her, telling her she shouldn't go. She is surprised he doesn’t balk or think she is crazy. He isn’t looking at her the way Ex-Bestfriend and Ex-Boyfriend did, like they feared she would infect them with her crazy, no, he looks at her with genuine terror in his eyes. She stops walking, they are just outside the party house. What do you know? She says. He inhales and steps forward, desperation etched into hs features, and says that he knows that everything she said was true, and that it is much worse than she even thinks. That if she goes, she will not make it back here. It’s too dangerous, and he just wants to keep her safe. She is flabbergasted, and checks over his features for signs. No pointed ears, no animalistic features such as scales or a tail, no strange eyes. How do you know all this? He doesn’t answer, his mouth works like he’s trying to come up with something and betrayal starts to roil in her gut.
Before he has the chance to lie, two men throw their arms around their shoulders. It is the couple that Character A hooks up with on occasion. They start walking them into the house and the one with Character A asks if she wants to come over later for a joint and to hook up. She tries to muster up a yes, it is what she wanted after all, but she can’t think straight after her conversation with Character B. She turns back to see he’s been steered into a conversation with a few other people and thinks she needs a drink to calm herself and give her some courage.
-She walks into the kitchen for a glass and bumps into her Ex-Boyfriend. She is thrown for a loop again. He says Happy Birthday and remarks that he didn’t think he would find her at a party today, since he knows how much she hates her birthday. Character A is surprised to see him and momentarily forgets about Character B, and asks what they’re doing back in town. He says its because Ex-Bestfriends mom is still missing. Character A says, oh, right. And feels stupid for thinking she wouldn’t run into them. She was devastated to hear Ex-BFFs Mom had been taken, she was like a second mother to her, but after Ex-BFF left she couldn’t stand to look at her Mom anymore and remember what she had lost.
He mentions something about the baby coming soon and Ex-BFF wanting to be as close to her mom as she can. Character A questions the baby and he tells her they are pregnant. Character A flashes back to both of them telling her they were leaving and couldn’t stay in contact with her anymore, that she had become too much for them to handle on the horizon of their new lives. She noted the way they looked at each other and how their knees pressed together, and that was when she knew they had been having an affair. She comes back to the present when he leans in close and says he actually wants to ask her some questions about her dad. She sees a familiar head with a mop of blonde hair moving through the crowd towards them. Seeing Ex-Boyfriend was bad enough, she cannot see Ex-Bestfriend. See her pregnant. And now he wants to hear what she has to say about the disappearances? You can go fuck yourself, she spits and walks away before he can say anything else, and thankfully, before Ex-Bestfriend reaches her. She thinks his betrayal hurt her, but her betrayal broke her.
-She is fleeing the kitchen, heading for the back door, desperate to get away from them, when she bumps into an attractive man in a red velvet sport coat with a red velvet top hat. They are both imprinted with roses. He apologizes for bumping into her and her heart skips a beat, thinking of the Queen's obsession with roses. She asks him who he's supposed to be and he smiles but pauses before saying his name is Character C, he’s friends with Character B, and her heart stops all together. A chill runs through her and Character B interrupts and asks him what he’s doing here. Character C hugs him and says its good to see him and says he thought he was dead. Character C turns to Character A and says that he took off for a month without saying anything, could she even believe it? And they had an important event that the three of them needed to attend tonight. Character B starts to argue with Character C when Character A hears her name called. The Guy she stole from is there, he holds up the card to the bookstore that fell under his desk and said he wants the contents of his safe back, and maybe the sheriff will go easy on her if she returns it, or maybe he won't since he will also be investigating his cabin burning down and one of his sons going missing. Character A plays dumb but he grabs her around the neck and says he knows it was her, she’s a pathetic bum just like her father. Character B punches him, forcing him to release her and they begin fighting. The other partygoers jump to Character A’s defense and start fighting the other guys that came with him. Character C picks up Character A after she was knocked over to keep her from being trampled, and Character B breaks away when The Guy starts fighting with someone else. So they turn and head for the door, but The Guy's Son, the same one from last month who she stole the bike from, blocked the back door.
-Character A turns and together they run into the basement, locking the door behind them. They run down the stairs and into a bedroom where she locks the door again. She whips out her knives and points one at Character C. “Why do you want me to go to the Other World?” He holds up his hands and smiles, “I need your help finding a weapon that will help me defeat the Queen .” “Why me?” “The Goddess showed me in a dream that it is you. I will pay you in gold and return you back here, unharmed, once you find it.” Character A hears them break through the basement door and descend the stairs. “Fine, I’ll help you do it.” Character B protests and steps forward but she gestures the knife at him and he stops. “But first, you will help me find my Father and send him back here. Alive. And healthy.” All she knows about the Other World is what she could glean from her Fathers stories and what she was able to research about lore, but she had no idea what was accurate and what was not. She would be a fool to think she should turn away help if she could bargain for it. “I will help you find you Father, but it won’t be until after tonight, we must attend the Queens party so you can search for the weapon, this is the best opportunity we will have for another year.” The Guy begins banging on the door. She took it back, she was being a fool, she had very little hope that she would be able to fulfill her end of the bargain, but she was out of time, and she may never have a chance to get to the Other World again. “Deal.” She says as she steps forward to shake his hand. Character C grasps it and an electrical charge runs up her arm. He pulls a small vial out of his pocket. He dumps some black sparkly powder on his tongue and a hole appears in the floor. Grabbing Character B’s hand as well they jump through it just as the door breaks open.
If you have read this far, seriously thank you so much and I love you and if you want feedback on anything please direct me to where I can provide it!
I wanted to note that the mention about her potentially killing The Other Son is relevant to the plot because he did not die in the fire, he was lured to the Other World and will be there as an antagonist when Character A shows up. Also, the mushrooms become relevant to her finding the weapon in book 2. She gets sidetracked this book by finding her father and bargaining to take his place in the game (the party they are attending is to watch this game take place) and having to fight her way out of them. The entire first book takes place over the course of one single night.

2024.05.19 23:03 corginization Crystal Creations Photo Guide: Rings

This post includes photos and use descriptions of the crafted rings from the Crystal Creations Stuff Pack. It is marked a spoiler in case you want to discover the designs yourself. All images are Sims 4 screenshots and not my own art.
I previously posted about the rings here, but after playing with the pack for a bit I now have better info. I also made a post about the crafted bracelets, which is linked in a comment below. I can make posts for other Crystal Creations stuff if desired.
CRAFTING: There are 12 rings you can craft using the gemology table. Each one requires a metal and a crystal, except the Basic Ring which only requires a metal. You gain access to the different designs as your Sim's gemology skill increases.
PHOTOS: Rings are pictured in alphabetical order, not in the order they appear when crafting. For consistency, I crafted all rings with pyrite (metal) and shinolite (crystal). Thank my lovely Sim Athena Centurion for crafting and modeling. l added a marking to her left hand so it's easier to distinguish hands.
RING INFO: Each ring has a single designated finger (listed below), except that the Lunar Goddess and Delicate rings also use a pinky. You can use a crafted ring to propose, but those engagement rings are treated the same as any other crafted ring (e.g., they go on their typical finger, not the left ring finger). You cannot have more than one ring on a finger. Only three crafted rings can be worn at a time. You can wear regular CAS rings as well as long as the fingers don't conflict. If charged, each ring crystal has a beneficial effect for your Sim that are indicated by moodlets. The effects do not stack, so you can only receive one benefit from each type of crystal. This includes effects from other jewelry items and carved crystals.
LEFT HAND • Thumb: none • Index: Bling, Mystical • Middle: Edwardian, Lunar 1 • Ring: none • Pinky: Lunar 2
RIGHT HAND • Thumb: none • Index: Basic, Plumbob, Raw • Middle: Botanical, Chunky, Starry • Ring: Delicate 1, Eye • Pinky: Delicate 2
To maximize the number of fingers with rings using crafted + base game CAS rings, wear: Delicate, Lunar, and either Basic, Plumbob, or Raw (there is no base game ring that uses the right index finger).
Hope this helps and let me know if you have any questions 💍

2024.05.19 20:47 Orbpondered Powerful dream interpretation and a few questions about bast, Druidic practices and pathways.

Hello everyone, I’m just wanting some direction or to hear your thoughts. I grew up with a pagan mother, so I had always been introduced to various spiritual practices other than Christianity. My mom finds solace with the Norse gods, however I feel I am just now getting a grasp as to who I feel drawn to. as of late, I’ve been interested in the aspects and path of druidry, however I feel as though the Egyptian gods, Bast in particular calls with me to work with her.
I do not have a particular altar for her, although I am currently taking the steps to build one for her. I have at least two statuettes of her, and various pins of golden cats with that somehow made their way to my collection through the years as gifts or by luck of finding them.
Cats have always been a part of my life, ever since I was young they were my absolute favorite. I had always been drawn to their beauty and fierceness. When I was about 13 one of our cats had kittens and I was drawn to one in particular- now that I am an independent adult she is with me throughout adulthood and she is my familiar. She was the small black runt kitten and I just knew she was mine. Her name is Lenka.
This dream was before any of my interest in working with the Egyptian gods- although I wonder if it kicked me off to my calling. I am just now exploring the depths of the dream, as since I was 18 I’ve been working tirelessly to build a foundation for myself and my home.
The dream begins with me waking up at the foot of this pool shaped like an Infinity symbol. Now that I research further it resembles ouroboros, or some sort of hourglass.
The edges of the pool look to be a rough golden color. I’m on one side along the edge of darkened water. It looks like charcoal has been dumped into the water and it’s murky. On the other side is this bright, tropical water- glowing like one of those Fischer price fish scenery toys. It glows and refracts like crazy and there’s plenty of colorful, tropical fish swimming around.
Where the smallest point of the pool is and where the two waters meet they’re split perfectly, I can see the shadow of a large sea creature like a pleosaur swim past the border.
Along the edges and bordering the pool are these beautiful and plentiful lush ferns, monstera, palms, various tropical plants. The sky is a deep purple, it is vast, serene and filled with tiny pinpricks of stars. The air is warm, moist and slightly thick but not uncomfortably so. I think I was in the middle of an oasis, the entire place felt sacred.
I start getting up from the pool edge and I’m wearing some loose clothing and jewelry, I have water sticking to my skin and I feel warm.. content.. peaceful. I look to my left and see a golden pyramid- about 8-10 feet tall at most.
It’s beautiful, I walk towards it. From this my perspective changes to third person, and I envision myself laying my hand flat against the surface of the pyramid, it’s cool, solid and moist to the touch. I then rest my forehead and nose against the pyramid and from there- I wake up.
I had never felt such serenity or peace and I feel as though a message was sent to me for me to remember such a vivid dream in detail.
I’m sorry for such a long post, I have just never felt so drawn and confused by such power and I’m not sure what to interpret from it and would appreciate any guidance.
Is it possible to give offerings and devote myself to the goddess Bast while still practicing druidry? Would that be taken as offensive?
