Happy new year to Brodie Chapman, the 2025 Australia time trial champion! Australia's national championships are such an outlier, coming in January, but we really appreciate how much excitement it brings to this quiet corner of the race calendar. (We appreciate the Aussie riders that lose their off-season and time with friends/family as they train for nationals, that's probably tough but kudos to Chapman for a huge 30+ second victory in the ITT, after two years on the podium!
In the elite women's road race, the bunch let a breakaway of five young riders go up the road early. The break immediately got big gap of nearly 5 minutes, and then cooperated together very well. The breakaway was made up of Lucinda Stewart (LivAlUla Jayco Continental), Ella Simpson (St. Michel - Preference Home - Auber93), Cassia Boglio (Pas Racing), Katelyn Nicholson (Butterfields Ziptrak), and Sophia Sammons (Praties Cycling), and they took turns smoothly on the front, while indecision behind hampered the chase.
Eventually, Amanda Spratt (Lidl-Trek) and Amber Pate (LivAlUla Jayco) gave chase, but were still two minutes back when the breakaway came into the final kilometers. Sammons had dropped off, and so the finale was a four-up sprint. Lucinda Stewart was the fastest on the day, edging out Ella Simpson, with Cassia Boglio and Katelyn Nicholson taking third and fourth, respectively. Other teams, particularly Lidl-Trek, had plenty of regrets about how the race played out, and would have liked to had Amanda Spratt or Lauretta Hanson in the finale. But they will definitely learn their lesson and take that into the season.
Looking forward, the UCI Women's World Tour season officially begins this weekend with the Tour Down Under! This year's course includes a double-climb on Willunga Hill, and we can't wait!

The Amber eyed dreamwalker part 18
Warnings: flashbacks.
I apologise for the long wait, I've had alot going on and have in no way shape or form been in any state to write anything so I apologise if its not the best but I'm slowly getting back into it.
Miles woke to the sound of small whimpers, those Small whimpers soon turned into Small cries and then piercing wails as he woke fully
Miles gently picked up his daughter and rested her on his chest, gently pating and rubbing her back.
"Shhh baby girl, your ok." ava's wails died down slightly as she rubbed her face into her fathers chest, her small hands grabbing at his skin. Miles smiled to himself as he kept gently rocking his daughter. Now, a week old, she would be introduced to the clan today and have her comunion at the tree of souls. Only certain members had met her so far, koruk had met her the morning after her birth, commenting how much she looked like miles and praising his daughter on how well she had done at bringing ava into the world. The healers were frequent visitors to the young family, checking jenna and Baby for signs of illness. Both fit and healthy so far, which relieved miles.
Jenna stirred next to him, her hand running through his hair then moving to the baby's hair, gently stroking her cheek.
Jenna sat up and made a gesture for miles to hand over the small baby. being passed from one parent to another ava made a dissatisfied squeal but soon settled as she latched onto jennas breast and fed hungrily, her small hands kneading jennas sore skin.
Kissing his mates head miles left their den letting mother and baby rest after feeding. Miles watched as the communal area was being prepared for the feast to welcome ava into the Thantor ’eveng. Meat was being prepared on the fires and beautiful strings of flowers adorned the surrounding trees and walls.
"Miles" koruk walked towards him a beaming smile "Ohe see ngenga"
"Koruk, "Ohe see ngenga"
"How is my first grandchild this morning, strong as ever? Miles smiled at the elder navi as loud cries came from inside "as you can hear, her lungs are strong" both chuckled as jenna came out, baby fussing in her arms, war paint was painted delicately on the baby's blue skin, her small tuft of hair sticking up as she fussed unhappily in her mother's arms. Miles stuck his hands out in a gimme fashion as jenna handed her squealing baby to her father and unsurprisingly she settled almost instantly "hm daddy's girl like her mamma" miles winked at jenna who glared at him unamused. Her glare softened slightly as she watched miles coo over his daughter in his arms. Her small tail swished happily as she babbled at miles, her small hands touching his face inquisitively as he nuzzled his face into her belly. He winced slightly when ava grabbed and pulled at his growing hair.
Once the infant let go of hia hair, he started to walk around the communal area showing ava all the floral decorations that odorned the cave walls, her little hands reaching out to grab at the bright coloured petals.
"No no we can't touch" miles kept walking round gently bouncing his daughter in his arms, lost in thought miles attention was drawn back to his mate, her body now adorned with beautifully intricate lace and bead pieces that hugged her curves. Miles growled softly to himself.
"Tutean mama" (look at mama) miles turned towards jenna Ava squealed happily kicking her small legs as she reached eagerly for jenna.
"Nìtut Little fko, papa needs to get lonu" (come little one papa needs to get ready) jenna tilted her head at miles ushering him away to get ready for the ceremony.
Miles playfully snarled at jenna slapping her but gently when he was sure no one was looking. Jenna gasped and went to swat his hand away but miles was already at their cave entrance grinning at her. Jenna rolled her eyes and shook her head while a smile remained on her face.
*Time skip to the ceremony*
All the clan gathered round the tree of souls, jenna, miles, koruk and ava at the centre of the tree as koruk made a speech welcoming the new infant to the clan and readying her for her first connection with eywa. As koruk spoke in navi, the clan responded. Miles still struggled with some of the language, but he caught the jist of what was being said. He watched as the clan all made rheir conecyions to the tree of souls, either theiugh the vines or roots of the tree. Miles watched as jenna lifted ava in her arms, allowing koruk to connect the infants braid to a vine of the tree of souls. She babbled happily. Koruk then connected jennas braid to the same vine and then moved to miles. Miles swallowed hard, his palms sweating as he remembered what he had seen the first time he had made the connection to eywa. Koruk gently connected miles braid to the same vine as his mate and daughter, miles held his breath in anticipation.
Miles tried to slow his breathing down but he was almost panting now, his heart felt as if it would beat out of his chest, he tried to focus on jenna and ava and the gentle singing of the clan around him but his mind kept spiraling off as visions of his past life flashed through his head. The blood, the pain, all the suffering he had caused in his old human life, and at the start of his avatar life.
Around him, he heard scattered gasps and cries from some of the clan members as his visions were shared through the tree of souls. Miles quickly janked his braid away, breaking the connection.
Miles breathed heavily as he looked around, his eyes wide with panic and fear. They had seen what he had done to other navi. How could they fully accept him into their clan knowing what he had done.
Some of the clan members started to hoot and make panicked sounds. He could hear koruk trying to calm them.
Miles staggered backwards almost slipping in the process. He had to get away, away from all the eyes watching him. Judging him.
He looked at jenna and ava who had begun to cry, he wasn't sure if it was due to rhe images that had just flashed through her young mind or due to the irate clan members around her.
He looked back at jenna. "I'm sorry," he whispered. He didn't know if she'd heard him. He didn't stop to check.
He just ran.

let's go back in tiiiiime
"Where are we?" "Where's everybody else?" "Where's Imogen?"
This area is rife with not just volcanic activity, but with seismic activity as well, and Ruidus is to the south.
Laudna identifies a handful of places that match this description: the Truskan Vale (near Kamordah), the Panagrip Sands (to the far east of Marquet), and the Spectrum Gorge in the middle of Issylra.
Orym to Caleb, via sending stone: "Um... Caleb Widogast? Are you alright? Where are you? Not sure we're even in Marquet anymore. Please respond." He's met with a feedback loop and static.
Orym to Dorian, vis sending stone: "Dorian? Can you hear me? Uh... what's the sky look like where you are? Tell me you're okay." Same thing.
They crest a ridge of the gorge, and beyond, there's a dense forest, a cluster of growth affixed to the mineral-rich earth. Orym, with a passive perception of 31, sees movement —
AIMEE!!!!
She's a dwarf with long blond hair, covered in tattoos — two stand out, one of a banner heart that says "me" instead of "mom," and one with a large cursive D. She's wearing earring hoops that say "fuck off." A corset, bejeweled boots, a massive gold belt buckle, carrying a whip and a sickle.
I'm calling it right now, this woman is going to romance Laudna and Ashton.
An hour ago, she was in Tal'dorei looking for her ex. She almost found him when she heard Ludinus' voice, saw white light, then appeared in this forest.
Mona is a barbarian/rogue (who rolled excellent stats btw).
From the top, they can see that the gorge is a massive canyon at least two miles long. Ruidus is to the southwest of them. An extremely overgrown and vibrant forest surrounds the canyon, and there's a river nearby.
Orym can see another gathering of leylines to the northeast — another nexus point, miles off. Loosely in that direction, he can see a township, and beyond that, a massive mountain range with one singular mountain taller than any he's ever seen — the Heaven's Stair. The entire western side of his vision is taken up by a mountain range that looks so foreboding and ominous that he doesn't even want to go near it. To the south, ocean.
Traveling to the northeast, they encounter a fire and send Pate to scout. (Friendly reminder that Pate uses the stat block of an imp, so he can turn invisible at will.) At the fire, there's a cart, a reindeer-looking beast of burden, and a humanoid figure warming their hands.
Utkarsh Ambudkar is an actor best known for his roles in Pitch Perfect and Avatar: the Last Airbender.
Bor'dor is a half-elf "built like a coat hanger." 6'4 but hunched over, delicate fingers, no scars or tattoos. Brown skin with shades of green and gold, unkempt hair, and large gold-amber eyes. A face that carries the resting expression of "what the fuck is going on?" No armor, a green cloak, leather shoes, and a crossbow.
He shoots a 5th-level lightning bolt at Mona, then casts cure wounds at second level. He's a divine soul sorcerer!
He was in the Cyrios Mountains on Wildemount (near Pride's Call) with his sheep — his family raises sheep and sheepdogs — and caring for his sick brother. Then he felt a humming, heard a voice and a droning, a pain in his forehead — then he got teleported here, along with his cart.
And apparently he just... spontaneously gained 9 levels in sorcerer over the course of the hours he's been here. Which, if he's a divine soul sorcerer, is super fucking concerning considering what we know about the gods giving large amounts of power to their followers from EXU: Calamity.
Mona's whip is a whip of warning, which gives her advantage on initiative rolls. Also, creatures within 30 feet of her cannot be surprised, and if they're sleeping naturally and combat starts, they wake up at the start of combat.
Orym spots another figure, walking through the forest, approaching the light and conversation.
EMILY!!
She's a shadar-kai elf with emo girl tattoos with runes instead of song lyrics, but she's dressed in the formal attire of a mage's apprentice. Indoor kid vibes, clothes not meant for adventuring, "coming out of a tense conversation with a book."
She's a Cobalt Soul apprentice!! She's here asking about their "experiences with the apogee solstice."
Her book talks to her. She was sent by the Cobalt Soul, but with a sentient book chaperone. It's a tome with black and brown leather and silver runes, with a scrunched face roughly pressed into the front. Denios was trapped in a book during a rivalry, the Cobalt Soul got their hands on it, and now he's a chaperone.
The Cobalt Soul didn't know where she was gonna end up, but they sent her through a teleport spell hoping for a metropolis — and ended up here. So this confirms that teleport works, but there's no guarantee where you're gonna end up.
Prism was stepping outside the library to prepare for her teleportation when she heard Ludinus, saw a flash, and ended up here.
The Soul knew that the apogee solstice would be a "cataclysmic event." They scrounged up everyone they could and dispatched them to try to figure out what's happening.
The sentient book is also her spellbook, so she's stuck with him.
It sounds like Prism is an order of scribes wizard? That would make sense for the Cobalt Soul.
Mona's "real" name is Deni$e. Her nails are incredibly sharp stilettos. Her demeanor reminds me a lot of Keg.
More rustling in the bushes! More people?
Nope! Initiative at the end of the break.
Prism has a raven familiar she calls "mother." She also invokes the spirit of her spellbook, confirming that she's an Order of Scribes wizard.
Denise has at least 3 levels in rogue, because her sneak attack is 2d6, and at least 2 levels in barbarian, because she has reckless attack.
Gods, I forgot how much I love Talisein's descriptions of Ashton's attacks and rage builds. They're all so good.
Oooooh, I've never seen steel wind strike used in a game before! It's a 5th level ranger/wizard spell from Xanithar's that deals 6d10 force damage on a hit to up to 5 creatures within range. Then, regardless of whether it hit or not, the caster can teleport to a space within 5 feet of any of the targets.
Also, yes, rules-as-written a familiar counts as an ally that can proc sneak attack. So if Veth, as an arcane trickster, had taken find familiar, or if Frumpkin was used in this way, she could've gotten sneak attack much more reliably. Personally, I find it strange that familiars can do this while spiritual weapons cannot, but yeah.
I love that Bor'dor, the newly-minted sorcerer who has no idea how to use his magic purposefully, is this party's only source of healing (besides Laudna's wither and bloom, which hardly counts). From that, it seems like this group is much more geared toward social encounters than physical ones,
YO. EMILY. that is a DOPE FUCKING MOVE
The plant swallows Orym, then the book goes in behind him and gets into contact, then Prism casts dimension door through the book on Orym to teleport them out.
THIS is why I absolutely love watching veteran players on Critical Role. People new to the system have their own unique charm to the way they play their characters, but people like Emily and Aabria who are highly experienced with and aware of D&D 5e know to make incredibly creative moves like that.
And at the same time, Utkarsh (and guests new to 5e) pushes the limits of the rules, because they're not familiar with those rules, to a point that they come up with wildly creative plays based on what knowledge they do have of the rules-as-written that end up being clutch moves.
Combat ends.
Prism's raven is named after both her own mother and the Matron of Ravens, because the latter is prominent in the Shadowfell.
Prism is "really new to spellcasting," despite being a 9th-level wizard who is therefore capable of casting things like contact other plane, create spelljamming helm, legend lore, and teleportation circle. tbh this is such a cool take on wizards -- someone who's never tested their spells in combat situations, but who's confident in their own ability with those spells in more innocuous circumstances, due to their expansive study and lack of practical experience.
Also, Prism knows exactly who Ludinus Da'leth is, though she's never interacted with him directly, because of his leadership of the Cerberus Assembly.
"We don't leave people behind. That's the rule. You do not leave people the fuck behind." I love that this has become the center of Ashton's philosophy, because it makes so much sense. They were left behind, left for dead, and a single person stayed by their side, helped them, saved them. So of course they are going to be that person for someone else. Of course they would rather be the Milo, of course they'd rather try in vain to save someone instead of leaving them behind and subjecting them to the same pain and isolation that they themself felt.
Also, again, Emily is using the same logic for Prism as Aabria did for Laerryn. Maybe it's just because we've never really had a proper elf PC (or a player-character who had the trance ability), but this is just such a cool take on trance...... I love it.
Ahhh, so Prism doesn't necessarily believe the gods should die but she does believe that they might deserve to be usurped by mortals ascending to godhood like the Raven Queen. With a skill check, Prism's truthful reason is that she's feeling excited to be out of the library. She thought she was going to freak out, but she didn't, and she's excited by that -- she feels like she could smoke a cigarette in a single drag, she feels that rush of adrenalin. It's like when Caleb said in C2 that they were all addicts to the thrill of battle, the adrenalin of purpose.
Bor'dor doesn't remember his mother very well, and he hasn't seen her in a very long time. He believes that his magic comes from the love of his mother, and he's clinging to that. He and Prism take the first watch, and bond over their ability to trance.
Yep, Prism is 100% an order of scribes wizard. Manifest Mind is a 6th level ability of that subclass.
Ashton panicked, down in the mines. They thought they'd won, they thought Laudna had won, and they think they made some bad calls. Laudna says that "we're a bunch of dumb-fucks, going up against a 500-year-old wizard, so..." And Ashton reassures her that they're gonna get their people. They're gonna get Prism, Bor'dor, and Deni$e to where they need to go, then they're gonna find Imogen. "If they went to space, then we'll go to space... if she got vaporized, we'll bring her back. This is what we do. We bring everybody back. There is no failure in this, and we're going to figure it out because it's what matters. I have-- whatever broken thing that's in my head, that means that anything's possible now, that's what I've decided. We brought you back, and we can do it again... sure, we're not enough to save the world, but we are more than enough to bring everybody back... we can't save the world, but we can save our people. We're going to."
I never really got to know Percy, I liked Molly, I loved Caduceus... but I want to fucking study Ashton like a bug under a microscope, I want to turn them around in my brain like a microwave. They are fascinating,
Deni$e and Orym take the last watch. Deni$e knows Shaun Gilmore! She went to Emon looking for him specifically. She also knows Dariax, "that piece of shit." She knows Orym from wanted posters all over Emon -- the Nameless Ones have put up wanted posters for all of the Crown Keepers.
Dariax has a dumptruck ass, canon.
DARIAX IS THE EX DENI$E WAS LOOKING FOR
And the Nameless Ones were going after her because they were looking for what Dariax stole, and as soon as she saw him months later, she got teleported here.
Orym has flashes of Keyleth, Will, the horrors they've witnessed. It permeates this light conversation, his entire existence. He drinks, heavier than we've seen him drink the entire campaign. "I just... I just don't think I've ever felt so small."
Prism doesn't know sending, but if she can find a scroll or a copy of a spell, she can transcribe it into her spellbook very quickly. She wants to find a library or some discarded spellbooks so she can help, so she can cast sending.
As an interesting note, this is also an Order of Scribes ability! Usually, it takes 2 hours per spell level for a wizard to transcribe a spell, but for an Order of Scribes wizard it takes two minutes per spell level.
"That mountain to the north is the Ascendant Bridge, the tallest mountain in Exandria... it's visible as far away as Vasselheim. It's believed to be where the gods first arrived in the world." The party is within a gorge of Othanzia, the region in which Vasselheim, the dawn of all civilization, sits.
The party can still see Ruidus, even in the early daylight. They can see townships around -- they have options scattered in every direction.
#critical role#note watches c3#critical role spoilers#critical role campaign 3#critical role c3#critical role liveblog#it's so interesting to look at how different and yet how so SO similar the guests are here versus the guests for Team Wildemount#like sure-- none of them are particularly reverent of the gods#nor do they really believe in their abilities#but they all recognize#in a general sense#that killing the gods is a Bad Thing To Do#and all five of them express that in entirely different ways#and the PCs are all in line with this too#none draw power directly from the gods and none are particularly pious#and yet the rational of them recognize that the gods and their support just disappearing overnight#would trigger a cataclysm on Exandria and beyond.

LIULI Crystal Art, Horse, Rising through Heaven & Earth
Color: Dark Amber / Light Amber
Material: Crystal Glass
Technique: Pate de Verre
Size: 15.00L x 20.40”H x12.00D inches
Limited Edition: 200 Pieces Worldwide
Note: As the art pieces are individually hand-made, the color and dimensions will vary slightly.
Sku: PEH254.ADACA
Design Description:
Galloping as if in flight, these 6 fine horses move majestically, without hesitation. Raising wind & waves through the maelstrom, 1 after 1, advances with courage & vision. This line of 6 magnificent horses galloping upwards through wind & waves, unhindered in the slightest, expresses the confidence & perseverance, overcoming all obstacles while striving to achieve a lofty aspiration.
The 6 horses represent the 6 righteous forms of human conduct: an official’s loyalty to their country, a father’s benevolent treatment of his children, a child’s respect for their parents, an older brother’s affection for his younger brother, a younger brother’s respect for his older brother - this is how we as a people & society come together. These 6 principles are first laid out in the Zuo Zhuan (Commentary of Zuo), an ancient narrative history traditionally regarded as a commentary on the Spring & Autumn Annals, and correspond to the 6 principles of social harmony in Confucianism: justice, loyalty, compassion, filial piety, love & respect. There are 2 perspectives to appreciate the design. It could be a team or an individual who is pursuing excellence. This piece is also seen as a horse galloping in slow motion, in all its power & glory. It also portrays a generational legacy one after.
設計概念說明:
澎湃而上的生命之歌,群馬的奔騰姿態,是飛揚的,壯美的,毫無遲疑的, 乘風躍水而起,激蕩裡一匹一匹馬的的奮進不息。是一種向上騰躍的、沒有停止的、更高還要更高、更遼闊的夢想與志氣;以及一關又一關,突破艱難的衝勁、自信,與堅強的意志。
六匹馬昂首向上, 六六大順, 取自《左傳》:“君義,臣行,父慈,子孝,兄愛,弟敬,此數者累謂六順, 六種順應, 是儒家思想中的和諧圓滿的人生應對, 仁義,忠誠,慈祥,孝順,友愛,尊敬。是人與與家人相處和睦,與社會中的人相處融洽,做到左右逢源,事事順風順水齊向上。
它是, 是一群人的團隊,但也可以是一個成功的人,追求卓越的過程,或是,六匹馬像是一個慢動作的連續畫面。在這樣的前進動力之後,展現了光耀燦爛的,一代一代的華美盛世。
Rising through Heaven and Earth
Leading each other, united as one, an inextinguishable force heading only in one direction - up. Through rivers, oceans and mountains, commanding the water aboard the wind, stirring the waves, welcoming the dawn, we ascend, rising victorious through heaven and earth.
騰舞天地共昂揚
昂揚領路 眾聚一心 生生不息欲何往? 大江大海大湖大山。 乘風馭水 破混沌 見曙光 雲水浪尖向上向上 齊舞天地奔騰奔騰。

Princess Alpharita Cedella Callwood🌺
crown Princess of the isles-Guardian of time-Protector of the islands-vessel of the gods-Maiden of summer-warrior queen-hibiscus of the west
Theme:https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLBPBJlvbAbfGGOp1zZ5OuW0qkrHU4EqA2
Once upon a time
She's one of the many royal children of the kingdom of lakansyèl that resides in the country of The Rainbow Isles. Shes was trained sense birth to be the next guardian of time and protector of the islands. For as long she can remember Shes been training to protect her homeland from any kind of threat. This title allowed her to move freely and not be tied downed to the throne,But things got complicated very quickly.Alpharita's older sister,the original crown princess stepped down and chose to leave the capital and become a priestess. Her mother,the queen had became vary ill and now theres unrest from the rest of the clans.Now that the title of queen is vecant, it is traditon in there matriarch society that any of the female contenders can fight for the throne. ALPHARITA was the next in line for the throne and now sits on it so there won't be any conflict. Now she's gonna have to deal with many of them coming to challenge her for the throne.Now Alpharita who orginally was only meant to be the guardian now has to learn how to run a whole kingdom.She's trying to cope, but these lessons,trainging,challenges, and new ordeals are wearing her down.Worse off is an ancient evil is rising up again and taking advantage of the kingdom's chaos to try to take over.Now not only is she dealing with political unrest she also dealing with a dark evil trying to take her home and then the world.ALPHARITA has alot on her plate,but shes ready to give it her and save the day. Hopefully she can find some allies to help her take down this ancient darkness.“Very fair and full of promise
Lay the island of St. Thomas:
Ocean o'er its reefs and bars
Hid its elemental scars;
Groves of cocoanut and guava
Grew above its fields of lava.
So the gem of the Antilles,--
"Isles of Eden," where no ill is,--
Like a great green turtle slumbered
On the sea that it encumbered.”~ Bret Harte

Audrey will beg for: cheese, oatmeal creme pies, ice cream sandwiches, leftover Ramen noodles, Kiltlifter (a locally-brewed Scottish style amber ale), French fries, popcorn
Audrey will refuse to eat: deli meat/sliced lunch meat, bits of ground sausage, the shredded bits in wet cat food that have actual meat with a thin gravy (she'll lick up all the gravy and leave the meat behind)
I'm eternally grateful that she isn't picky about what brand of dry food she eats, or what flavor wet as long as it's the pate style.
I had to explain some stuff to my cat.
