Earth's holidays are quite intriguing; I've been reading up on them since people began speaking of Halloween. We don't seem to share most of them, in my whorl, which... well. I find myself uncertain; I sometimes feel so sure that it is the Short-Sun Whorl, and other times, it seems impossible. No mentions of Pas, or his children; and yet ( Read more... )

[VOICE POST]I remember watching the Fliers, as a boy, and wondering what it would be like to join them. What they were; how they hung, suspended, no greater than dragonflies. Featureless against the brilliant thread of the sun; like the shadows of those who strode the Aureate Path. Fliers, I know now, are men; small and slender, I imagine so ( Read more... )

[There's a fairly large, black bird with a brilliant scarlet beak hopping around the City, occasionally stopping to cast a beady eye on the passers by. He occasionally takes to the air for a moment, but doesn't seem particularly comfortable flying, and soon settles back down.]

Given the reputation this month has for dangerous curses, this weather is most unsettling. I haven't ventured outside-- it's like a wall outside my window, and though I've more or less gotten used to this place, I wouldn't trust myself to find my way through Viron in such conditions ( Read more... )

[VOICE POST]Today belongs to Highest Hierax, the god of death. Given the affliction many of you seem to be suffering, I think I shall spend much of the day in prayer. Death must be honored; it is inescapable and, though we are loathe to admit it, holy ( Read more... )

I hadn't realized that curses could cause so much trouble-- profanity, and blasphemy, and threats... I wanted to apologize to, I believe it was, Hiyori and Roxas? I was not myself when you met me, and I feel awful for being so rude to you. Please forgive my behavior! I hope you found your way without too much difficulty, after you ( Read more... )

You bucks an' dells've gone abram, an' that's lily.

[ooc: can't resist; no pirates in his whorl really, but thieves' cant is a good parallel :D]

[VIDEO POST]
[Silk is seated, presumably, in front of his computer; a large red 'T' is emblazoned on the plain black shirt he generally wears in lieu of proper augur's robes. He does not begin to speak immediately, contemplating his image on the screen, stroking at his cheek thoughtfully.]This curse, although it encourages a kind of honesty most ( Read more... )

[VOICE POST]I was going to ask how one would go about getting the sink fixed, as it appeared our well had been fouled, but evidently this is just a curse. The pink liquid is very nice, if a little too rich for my tastes. I think it's strawberry. The green stuff with black flecks in the bathroom sink I will have to leave to braver souls; I'm sure ( Read more... )

[VOICE]
I still have not gotten to the library; I think I shall go later this week. Perhaps on... Thursday?... since that is the day governed by Thelxiepeia, even if you don't call it by her name, here. Molpe, as the patroness of art, would be fortuitous as well; but Thelxiepeia is more aligned with learning, which is my ultimate goal ( Read more... )
