WIP Tour Tag!

Finally getting to this! Thank y'all for the tags @paeliae-occasionally, @illarian-rambling, @willtheweaver, and @topazadine!

For the sake of simplicity I'll be showing you around a single city, the Grand City by the Lake, Labisa.

(There is a 99.9999 chance that I missed at least one typo, please be forgiving haha)

Stop 1: The Serpent Road

You find yourself walking down a worn and dusty road, one which stretches far behind you, curling serpent-like through the forested hills, as well as farms and villages, eventually vanishing into the looming Red Cedar Mountains. At first glance you may believe it to be little more than a wide dirt path, but as you look closer you can see the faint outlines of cobblestones, laid in times long forgotten, their surfaces sanded down by centuries of feet, hooves, and wagon wheels. Other travellers surround you, many dressed in strange clothing, some are Kishite some come from far more distant lands. They have come to partake in the Festival of Humbalibal, Goddess of the Mountains. Performers draped in the skins of leopards and boars, dancers bedecked with bells and ribbons, and poets bearing harps and drums ply their trade. Over the excited chatter, they sing of great heroes and tragedies, of beautiful Hiru and sorrowful Lat. Through the people, on either side of you are steles, dozens of them, some as small as a child, others as large as a house, pillars of stone their surfaces carved and chiselled with decrees of kings and queens, living and dead. Gods and beasts glare down at you as you pass beneath their stony gaze. Woe the Thief, Woe the Murderer, Woe the Traitor they seem to whisper. Or perhaps the whispers come from the lips of the heads, their eyes plucked by birds, cheeks sunken, skewered upon the poles of pine wood which line the roadside, their crimes scrawled in black coal upon their foreheads. To your left glittering under the mid-day sun is Lake Shebali, its massive expanse seems to swallow the horizon. White-feathered shorebirds stalk black sand beaches and weave amongst reeds. Ships bob lazily at the docks, grandest among them is the royal barge, a floating palace, its two masts extend high into the air like two massive trees. Beyond the docks you can see the fishing village, humble buildings of mud and timber, racks where fish dry, and leather cures. Children run between the houses whooping and crying, waving sticks and dolls of hair and cloth above their heads. Neither you, nor your fellow travellers have the time to ponder as to their games.

Stop 2: The Outer Walls of Labisa: The Black Walls of Tamel and the Serpent Gate

This rural scene does not hold your attention for long, for now you have reached the walls of Labisa. They tower above you, their stony surface rising 70 ft, and almost as thick, each one of the tens of thousands of blocks is the size of a horse. The lowest stones are made from black basalt, dragged from the looming mountains. Above these are yellow limestone, the surface of the stones each lovingly carved with scenes of animals, forests, battles, gods, and spirits, most so worn by the ravages of time that are all but incomprehensible. One could spend a lifetime inspecting all the images. The upper most layer and the towers placed at regular intervals are made from snowy marble. Long ago these walls had been built by the demigods Tamel, Sadaric, and Mikrab alongside thousands of workers and artisans. These walls had been made to withstand all enemies from armies to dragons. No tree or shrub grows against the imposing stone, nature kept at bay by fire and bronze. Before you, rearing high above, are two gargantuan stone serpents, one is crooked, its snarling face cracked. Any of the excitable travellers will tell you that the story goes that it was Narul that cast down the serpent while fleeing from the city with the fugitive princess Ninma. How any one person could do this, you do not know. But now is not the time chat, you are approaching the gates. Doors of thick cedar, 30 ft tall, freshly painted, as blue as the sky, bolts, and rivets of bronze glimmering in the sun. Guards stand on either side, inspecting the wagons and carts as they pass through. They wear armor of bronze, scaled like dragonskin. Their tall helms are bedecked with red feathers. In their hands are gripped spears, shields of bronze and oak hang from their backs. They stand stern and proud, these are not the men of Hutbari, untrained and inattentive, these men serve Akard, King of Kings. As you reach the gates they look you over. After a thorough but quick glance, they beckon you inside.

Stop 3: The Grand Square and The Tomb of Tamel

You enter a grand square, larger than most villages. Tents and makeshift ovens have been placed around the square to feed the hungry people. Honey cakes, stretched flatbreads, snails, sausages, olives, wine, beer, fried fish, fruits, nuts, fried dough, cups of stewed beans, dozens of different choices, each with a hungry crowd jostling for the next spot in line. The smell of fried foods hangs heavy in the air. Surrounding the square are buildings, many are beer halls from which sounds of laughter and twangs of harps emanate. Still others are brothels, men and women hang from windows cooing and calling to passers-by.

Musicians blow on flutes and pound at drums, while men dressed in naught by ram's skin, their faces and bodies painted, dance their arms raised above their heads, their eyes rolling in their heads as if in a trance. Sages awe children and terrify adults with streams of fire and crackling electricity which arcs from their fingertips. Exotic animals pace in cages under the curious eyes of Kishite children. If you look closely among the crowd, you may notice hillfolk, short and broad, their thick fur and long arms easily distinguishing them from their human neighbors, or perhaps you might see the amethyst hair of an Ikopeshi, or rarer yet the great winged form of a kiriki, their feline bodies draped with beads of amber and bone.

Laborers are hard at work, constructing a massive stage at the center of the square, here is where priests from the Temple of Humbalibal will perform odes and songs in honor of the goddess. But it was what lies beyond that catches your attention. At first you assume you must be hallucinating, for it seems that somehow a mountain has sprung up here in the middle of a city, complete with lush forests and trilling birds. As you draw near, you can see marble steps among the greenery leading up to the summit, three hundred feet above you.

This is the Tomb of Tamel, built to house the bones of the founder of the city. What appears now as a massive mountain, is in actuality a tiered structure, composed of thousands of stones, concealing a burial chamber within. As is the tradition of the Kishites, the tomb has been covered by soil and planted with a lush garden, fed by manmade rivers, the water drawn up from underground sources. Entire orchards of fruit trees inhabit each rounded tier. Tamel alone has been given the honor of being buried in the city, the tombs of his successors dot a nearby mesa. While magnificent in their own right, none can match the grandeur of this tomb. Kishites pour bowls of crimson wine at the tomb's base, libations in dedication to the spirits said to guard the dead king's bones. A man approaches you, offering you a bowl for a small fee. However, as the crowd grows you are quickly forced to continue on with your exploration of the city.

Stop 4: The Temple of Humbalibal

The city is marked by three hills, aside from Tamel's Tomb. The first of these, which stands opposite to the square, is the Temple District. As you walk up with stone steps, statues of many armed gods and animalistic spirits dance on either side of you, freshly painted with vibrant shades of red, green, yellow, and blue. Dozens of temples flank the steps, some little more than huts, others grand structures of stone and wood. The smell of burning incense combines with the aroma of sacrificial fires and of the city below. The greatest temple lies before you, dedicated to the patron of the city, Humbalibal. The red doors are swung open to allow all entrance. Priests and priestesses, devotees of the Mountain Goddess, go about their work, some tending to the statues, others kneel, their heads bowed in reverence, hands raised with palms flat in silent prayer to the watching divinities. Their white robes swish as they walk, their horned headdresses click and rattle as they walk, adorned with pins in the shape of poppies. Also, among them are many of the city’s sages. They are recognizable by the ivory circlets rested upon their brows, traditionally sourced from the dwindling Kishite elephants of the southern cedar forests, though increasingly, the city’s ivory supply is reliant on the elephants of Namut.

The great statue of Humbalibal, sits within the eastern alcove. As with the other various statues and reliefs that fill the great altar room, Humbalibal is painted with garish colors, her skin the color of ice, her nude form draped in iridescent dragon skin. The muscles and veins in her four powerful arms have been carved with loving detail, as have been the curling ram horns which sprout from her jet hair. Her silvery eyes, creased with the cold fury of the avalanche, look down at the mortals milling around her feet. Opposite her in another alcove sits a simple wooden throne, it is from here that the king of the city listens to the concerns of his people. Between the throne and Humbalibal, sits the grand altar where sacrifices to the goddess are made. The flame there has burnt, uninterrupted since the days of Tamel. At that moment another one of the temple doors is opened and six cattle, five geese, four sheep, three pigs, two gazelles, and a lioness are guided into the temple, flanked by priestesses wielding knives of cruel obsidian. Rather than sticking around to see the sacrifices, you decide to travel on to the next part of the city.

Stop 5: The Markets

You descend one of the other staircases, winding back down into the city proper. You can see ships approaching on Lake Shebali, carrying yet more visitors to the already crowded city. To the north, hugging the Black Wall, you can see the so-called Lower City, named for its elevation rather than its position on the map. It is marked by many small, cramped hovels of mudbrick and straw, interconnected through various doors and halls to form a sort of hive. There is no such thing as a private home in the Lower City. A man could walk from one end of the district to the other without ever stepping onto the street. Peasants lie on their roofs, chatting, trading, and playing games of dice. There are fewer travellers there, for it is there the city's poorest live. There are no statues, the beer halls are puny, and the shops ill-supplied. Yet cramped and humbled as the lower city may be, you have heard stories of how it once looked under the reign of the previous king, Hutbari, crumbling and filthy. Under the reign of King Akard, no longer do children pick through piles of rubbish, no longer do disease and fleas run rampant, nowhere else in the city are the praises to Akard sang so loudly.

In front of you, to the south, can see the palatial hill, rearing high above the city, the Blue Walls, those that separate the hill and the palatial olive grove from the rest of the city. You decide to head in that direction to see the Palace for yourself, but first you must pass through the Market Districts. Called the 26 Streets, these form the economic and production backbone of the city. The streets are as follows: The Potter's Street, The Perfumer's Street, The Weaver's Street, The Butcher's Street, The Slaver's Street, The Bronzesmith's Street, The Coppersmith’s Street, The Carver's Street, the Brewer's Street, The Vintner's Street, The Jeweller's Street, The Plantbrew's Street, The Scribe's Street, the Ropemaker's Street, The Tanner's Street, The Spicer's Street, The Painter's Street, The Dyer's Street, The Stonemason's Street, The Fishmonger's Street, The Carpenter's Street, The Basket weaver’s Street, The Papermaker's Street, The Musicians’ Street, The Farmer’s Street, and the Candlemaker’s Street. Your path through towards the castle will take you through the first three: Potter's, Perfumer's, and Weaver's. You start with the Weaver's Street.

As with the Square, the market streets are bustling, crowds of people, mostly visitors, rush to gawk at and purchase bits and pieces of Labisian clothing. Garments of silk, linen, and wool of every color are waved by enthusiastic shop owners and hawkers seated in front of the flat-topped brick and wood buildings that function as store, workshop, and home. The shops are colourfully painted with blues, reds, and greens, in the hopes that their bright tones will draw in curious patrons. The pungent smell of dye lays over the distract like a blanket and the squeals and clicks of the looms and wheels fight to be heard over the many chattering voices.

You may have heard of the state of these streets thirteen years ago, when Hutbari and before him, his predecessors reigned. Then mounds of various kinds of filth had formed stinking barriers along the road. Human muck had clogged the streets, bodies of livestock, broken pottery, and every other imaginable pollutant rendering the market district and the surrounding city a stinking cesspit of disease. There were and are tunnels beneath the city, meant to carry waste out of the city. But these had been neglected for years, with monarch after monarch failing to delegate the duties of their upkeep. Upon taking the throne Akard and his new court had undergone a disgusting and arduous quest to see that the tunnels were returned to their former functionality, and the grime removed from the city. This was later derisively called, The Shit War. Methane gas, collapsed tunnels, and dark things living below the city made the endeavour a nightmare, one which claimed the lives of many guards and even a nobleman or two. And yet after 3 long years of constant work, the city was cleaner than it had been in the last 90 years.

This is not to say that the city is in anyway perfect. As you pass into the Perfumer's district The smell of dye is quickly overwhelmed by a headache-inducing melange of fragrances. Jugs and bottles of dozens of sizes, from the size of a child’s palm to the height of a grown man, line the street, images have been painted on their surface to advertise their contents. Perfume is of immense importance throughout the lands of the Green Sea, but especially in Kishetal. No person leaves their home without first scenting themselves, slaves are typically the only exception. Indeed, among some peoples like the Makurians and the Korithians, the Kishite people were thought of as feminine for their love of perfume, adornment, and their extravagant bathing practices, even the presence of public toilets was at times considered to be unduly opulent. As you look at the various decorated perfume bottles, a thought occurs to you. You recognize visitors from Korithia, Shabala, Makur, Ikopesh, Knosh, and beyond, but there is a group that is missing. Despite being one of the largest and most wealthy kingdoms you see no one from Apuna. Perhaps it’s not surprising, after all Labisa is currently war with Apuna.

At least that is what you think at first, until you look closer. There are Apunians here, slaves. They follow behind Kishite masters or else can be seen cleaning the streets and do other kinds of menial labor. Many are missing eyes, a hand, a thumb, or other parts. Kishite Palaces have a long and proud tradition of mutilation when it comes to their prisoners of war. You quickly avert your attention, but it lands on something else, the figure of a woman, sat in an alley, her knees tucked beneath her chin, her eyes hooded. At first you assume she is a beggar, though thus far they have been a rarity in this city, until you see the pustules. Her face and arms are covered in hundreds of angry red swellings, her teeth are chattering, her eyes vacant. Disease is an inescapable reality of living in a city, particularly one as massive as this. There are no hospitals or hospices, and in favor of the festival most of the temples have temporarily banished those being cared for there. And so, the ill gather here in the Perfume District, where the sweet smells may in some way cover the smell of pestilence.

In recent years Pyrian Fever become an increasingly dire problem throughout the domain of Akard. Though Kishites may not know what bacteria or viruses are, they have managed to identify where this particular outbreak originated from. As is often the case, war is a flashpoint for plague. Some of the same prisoner's war and slaves, you had previously noticed, brought the deadly disease with them. Now every slave is inspected for any signs of disease, but it is too late, they sickness is already here. You notice the plantbrews, medicine women, marching up and down the street, tending to the sick who huddle in alleys and under doorways. Some of the treatments seem to be working, certainly the disease seems less virulent than it has been in the past. Even still, you take note of the warnings scrawled on wooden boards. " Enun Nadolul Na Lumiga" "Do not touch the sick." You quickly decide to move on from the perfume district.

Soon enough the smell of rose and cinnamon declines, replaced by the earthy scent of clay and the sharp tang of kiln smoke. Potters line the streets, hawking their wares, hands stained with the rich red brown of freshly fired earth ang glaze. From tiny, ornate perfume bottles to massive pithoi, many of which you recognize from the previous district. The pots, jugs, and jars are adorned with intricate designs, some depicting scenes of daily life, others abstract patterns that seemed to dance around the curves of the vessels, still others are unglazed, fiery orange or ashy grey. A group of Korithians, immediately recognizable by their short colourful kilts and their long-braided hair, are gathered around one such shop, gawking at the erotic imagery that adorns those particular bowls and plates. You stop to look for yourself, though you quickly find that the going price is far too high for your tastes.

As you leave the Market Districts and approach the Palatial Hill, you enter the area where many of the richer families dwell, minor nobility, and wealthy merchants. Here too are the grand estates were visiting dignitaries stay. Buildings of stone and cedar wood, one, two or even three stories tall. Their surfaces painted and carved with stylized frescos of nature and festivity, curling palms, and leaping gazelles alongside bell-adorned dancers.

Kishite nobles, lounging in front of their homes, sipping wine, and eating dates and olives can be seen dressed in expensive clothing, their hair bedecked with many beads, ribbons, and rings, their necks and wrists choked with chains, collars, and baubles. Their robes are made from silk and soft linen, purple, red, and saffron yellow, their hair and beards are slicked with scented perfumes. Some wear capes and cloaks of lion and leopard fur.

The Kiriki Gates now stand before you.

Stop 6: The Palatial Hill

The Blue Wall separates the Palatial Hill from the rest of the city, while considerably smaller than the Black Wall, at only 32ft in height, it is no less magnificent. The wall itself is made from limestone. Unlike the carved surface of the Black Wall, the stones of the Blue Wall have been sanded and smoothed until it almost seems to sparkle in the afternoon sun. Even the cracks and gaps between the stones have been filled in to create a uniform surface. It is named for the upper most layer of stones, each one painted with a mixture of cobalt and copper to produce a vibrant blue. The only break is the Kiriki Gate, named for the two massive guardians which stand at either side, stone statues of Kiriki, each larger than an elephant. Kiriki are bull-horned and winged lions with the human-like faces. They are culture is secretive, their language indecipherable to most humans, yet they are seen on occasion, you had even seen earlier at this very festival.

While the statues are immobile, the same cannot be said of the guards, eight of the, standing on either side of the open cedar doors. They carry spears and axes, and massive shields in the shape of hourglasses. As you approach one of the guard's holds out his hand. You place a small tablet, no larger than a postage stamp in his palm. Carved on its surface in miniscule writing is a number of Kishite glyphs. This tablet acts as your permission to enter the palatial grounds. After a minute he nods and steps back. He does not return the tablet, this particular privilege is only being afforded, once.

You walk through the gates, head respectfully bowed. It is as if you had just been transported miles away to the countryside. An olive grove stands around you, gnarled trunks twisting and turning. Many of these trees have been here for hundreds of years since the time of Tamel and his children. Currently the workers and caretakers are lounging by ponds and pools, a handful are pruning and attending to the trees, but overall, with the harvest still being months away, the Palatial Olive Grove is tranquil. A few of the laborers wave as you pass by. Stags, gazelle, pheasants, and other peaceful creatures roam through the rows of trees, their presence meant to simulate a rural farm or hillside orchard. A gazelle approaches you, hoping for handouts, upon finding none it goes back to nibbling at the grass.

You spot a small stone shrine tucked among one particularly thick grouping of olive trees, you are not sure which god it is meant to honor, for there are no markings on the alter. Before the shrine is a ring of stones placed on the ground. You immediately recognize this structure as one of those in which Kishite dead are placed, allowing their flesh to be reclaimed by nature before their bones are buried or placed in tombs. However, this particular ring has never held a corpse, rather this ring is used as part of the naming ceremony performed on Noble Kishite children upon reaching the age of 4. The child is made to sleep here, and upon awakening, they symbolically rise up from their "old life".

Beyond the olive grove you enter an area filled with fig, pomegranate, regalu, and quince trees. You even spot a peach tree, still a rarity this far west. Myrtle and laurel trees also make an appearance, their trunks seemingly wrapped in grape vines. The fragrance of these trees mingles with the dry scent of earth and old wood. A few more workers, dressed in simple linen wraps, tend to the trees, and prune the vines, their movements slow and deliberate.

You spot a number of terraces built into the hill side; great blocks of limestone topped with soil. Here is where the king's plantbrews grow their stock, exotic berries, tubers, and flowers.

The ground is crisscrossed by stone pathways, like the one that you are walking on, however it seems that most of the laborers choose to ignore these, instead walking over grass and roots.

The White Wall waits before you.

Stop 7: The Palace

The last and smallest of Labisa's three great walls, at only 24ft is The White Wall, which separates the palatial complex from the rest of the hill. In similar fashion to the Black Wall, the White Wall is made from massive blocks of stone rather than many smaller bricks like the Blue Wall, the lintel above the king's gate is the single heaviest stone in all three of the walls, at nearly 20 tons. The White Wall is the only one with stones that were not quarried in Kishetal, rather its stones were sourced from the original homeland of Tamel and his followers, Shabala. Each massive stone was transported by ship, barge, and finally by rope and manpower over hundreds of miles to the top of the hill, thus while the wall itself may be the smallest, its construction was arguably the most expensive. At first glance you might be confused as to why it is called the White Wall, the stone used is a pale grey, distinctly not white. The name comes from a thin layer of marble tiles that once covered the entirety of the wall, placed there by Tamel the Second, the last monarch of his namesake's line and the last king of a united Kishite kingdom. The tiles cut from the ruins of Arkodian temples, their capture viewed as the symbolic end of the war that had ravaged both Kishetal and Arkodai for decades, the single most destructive war in the recorded history of the Green Sea.

The tiles were stuck to the walls, with the plans for the white marble to be painted not only with images of the valiant heroes of Kishetal, but also those of Arkodai, their faces meant to stand guard over the palace as a memorial of the terrible war. After the last of the tiles had been placed but before the first of the paint could be applied, Tamel the Second was assassinated by his own son, Kerim. United Kishetal died with Tamel. Kerim cancelled the plans to paint the walls.

After Kerim was himself, killed by his younger brother, Farut, the tiles were taken ripped down and instead used to decorate the tomb of Tamel the Second. If one were to venture to the mesa where the royal tombs sit, the tomb of Tamel the Second would be easily identifiable by the snowy white Arkodian marble which still peaks from under the greenery.

The King's Gate is surprisingly plain, there are no great guardians looking over you as you pass under the massive lintel. The eyes of the guards burn into you as you pass, though they do not stop you.

The main palace along with the other palatial buildings function as a miniature city of sorts. The royal residence, a temple, storage buildings, a smithy, a pottery workshop, several workshops reserved for the palace weavers, two different sets of kitchens (and several massive outdoor ovens), the slave quarters, the bathhouse, and the stables are all contained within the White Wall, forming a large palatial citadel dotted with oleander, chestnut, and beech trees. The nobility and their guests who visit palace bathed in the grand bathhouse which stands directly beside the palace, constructed from polished granite, built atop an ancient spring, its interior is decorated with exotic plants and birds, carvings of dancing gods and heroes adorn the walls, and steam curls constantly from its high-set windows. Three similar though decidedly less extravagant baths can be found in the lower city, open to the people of Labisa. The palatial slaves make do with a large pond which lay at the edge of the courtyard.

The palace stands like a fortress atop the rugged hill, its thick stone walls towering above, as imposing as the demigod Tamel the First, who both ordered and assisted in its construction. Built from massive limestone blocks and mudbrick, it seems to have risen from the earth itself, sturdy and timeless. At six stories tall, it is the highest structure in all Labisa, save for the Tomb of Tamel. The outer walls are fortified with battlements and defensive towers, making the palace not just a seat of power but a stronghold overseeing the sprawling city below. Black soot still scars the walls, a grim reminder of Barunaki's brutal raid during Akard’s coup, when soldiers snuck in, murdered Hutbari’s children, and accidentally set the ancient structure ablaze. Only heroic effort saved the palace from complete destruction.

As you pass through the massive stone gate, you enter beneath an arch adorned with reliefs of lions, leopards, and horned men. Inside, the vast central courtyard opens before you, its stone floors smooth from centuries of footsteps. This space, often the site of ceremonies and rituals, is now empty—the king is far to the south. Yet, the palace is far from abandoned; at least two hundred nobles, along with their servants and slaves, occupy its thousand rooms, overseeing its care and performing sacred rites.

The halls are vast and labyrinthine, easy to get lost in. The lofty ceilings are supported by cedar beams and painted columns, every surface intricately adorned. Walls, pillars, ceilings, and even floors are decorated with colorful cloth, carvings, and frescoes. The murals depict royal processions, epic battles, dragons, divine figures, and tales from the Age of Glass and Metal, drawn from "Ti Jali Chasma," the Great History. You pause to admire a fantastical depiction of an ancient city, its twisting, impossibly shaped buildings a testament to the imagination of the artisans. Peeking into some rooms, you find many to be storage spaces, filled with pithoi and vessels holding oil and grain. One door nearly costs you your head, as the Chief of Wine glares at you with a spear in hand, clearly protective of his charge. Hastily, you move on, climbing stone stairs worn smooth from use, the center dipped from countless feet. Banquet halls line the next level, each filled with ornately carved furniture inlaid with pearl and ivory. Large hearths and massive braziers warm the rooms, the scent of smoke and wood blending with resin, stale perfumes, and the earthy smell of stone. Light filters through narrow windows, casting sharp contrasts of shadow and brightness across the floors. As you ascend further, you pass thick wooden doors fitted with bronze, marking private chambers—most are closed, and you wisely choose not to linger. The throne room is at the heart of the palace, both intimate and imposing. A raised platform holds a richly adorned stone throne, carved from black rock streaked with gold. Frescoes and tapestries line the walls, depicting heroic figures battling savage beasts. High above, barely visible, are the words of long-dead kings carved into the ceiling, some written in dialects so ancient only a handful of scholars can decipher them. At the back of the room are doors leading to upper floors, reserved for the royal family and palace sages. As you approach, a guard blocks your path, his stern expression and sharp spear making it clear that your tour ends here. As you leave the palace, the painted eyes follow you. Descending the palatial hill along with stern guard, you are guided back towards the bustling city. Somehow in your brief time away, the streets have become even more hectic, alive with color and activity. With the festival’s opening drawing near, you ponder your options for the time being. You could choose to explore the vibrant market districts, engage with the locals, or simply enjoy the lively atmosphere, the city offers a myriad of experiences. Perhaps if you can find a good beerhall or city corner, you may just be able to hear one of the many tales of Princess Ninma and the giant Narul. Regardless, the festival promises to be a grand affair, the likes of which no other city in the region can match.

I hope that you enjoyed your tour!

Quarters of King's Landing

Vast swathes of empty land outside of King's Landing were separated and converted into Quarters. Each Quarter is set aside for lords, ladies, and anyone from a particular kingdom within Westeros. A sheriff is appointed to each Quarter, to maintain law and order. These Quarters came into being after the conquest, with the Dornish Quarter being the last of them. They do not just serve as a place of residence for those wanting to spend time in the Crown Lands. They are also places where one could find specialties from each region.

The Northern Quarter: Lumber, furs and pelts, fine wool and yarn, cured salmon and salt-cured sturgeon roe, true green and blue dyes obtained from winter roses and their leaves, and a rare, costly perfume that can only be made from winter roses are the most sought after goods. Some of the best hunters and trackers can be found in the Northern Quarter, along with some of the best boxers and wrestlers. Their seers are revered, and people from all over come to them for guidance on future decisions. Festivals sacred to the Old Gods are celebrated here.

The Vale Quarter: Weapons and armor. Some of the best plate and swords and mail can be found here, along with the best war horses. The best place to look for a master-at-arms would be in the Vale Quarter. Some of the finest sculptors for marble and stone can be found here. Equestrian events are the order of the day in the Vale Quarter.

The Stormlands Quarter: Some of the best shipwrights, boatbuilders, and sailors can be found here. There is even a hall for their fighters to put on boxing matches. Fighters from all over Westeros and beyond come to compete and wagers have reached record-breaking numbers in some instances.

The Dornish Quarter: Dates, Camels, and Sand Steeds can be found here, along with the finest linen and cotton, and lightweight hauberks suited for exceedingly hot weather. True red dye, one obtained from tiny insects that live only in Dorne, is sold in the Dornish quarter. A racing track can be found here, for horse and camel races.

The Reach Quarter: All manner of perfumes and oils, rare vintages and the finest silk. Their shipwrights are as good as those found in the Stormlands Quarter. Books of all kinds can be found here. Whenever the weather is fine, there are poetry and storytelling evenings.

The Westerlands Quarter: The best smiths and jewelers and glassmakers from in and around Lannisport come here. Gold and silver and platinum jewelry can be found here, as is beautiful hand-blown glass. Here one can find acrobats and ribbon dancers and tightrope walkers performing if the weather is clear.

The Riverlands Quarter: The best boatmakers and archers. Trackers from the Riverlands Quarter are as good as those found in the Northern Quarter. The nobles in this Quarter organize boat races along the Black Water Rush during late spring and summer.

The Iron Islands Quarter: Whale meat and whale oil can be found here, as well as shipwrights, sailors and whalers looking to ply their trade. Finger dancers and fire dances are held here and attract quite a crowd.

Mom popping by virgin lies

A treochair sequence

Babes were their place upon a heavy, heavens expand, though I heard with

waters of the meditative minds, but never: at they shall rear my

dusky race. And all the earth grows the cheese are darted, ever after

me? Mom popping by virgin lies! My please me; careless fragment pluck; and

its water- side, has a hundredth part frae ’boon the Christian-name was left

his small hands. Where there to dance with me. Made preuie marks I would haue a dog,

a little fell? Waiting for the Never, never wauks. Break, breathing-wheel

or touching on her eyes that reaps not harvest of the tranquillity,

so calm earth was changed; with dew. As on a planispheres of Ettrick’s

vale, is of my life for ever gave my kitchen, may remember, lapt

in universal law. Light the sinking in the better; but never,

whispering at the child of a head, taking up his the boy, the boy’s

a-dying but after parting glancing in Diana’s strain’d, spurd with dew.

This small wind, flung roses. Like a hard-ship that I write my mind, in summer

drizzle, remain unnamed boy sees a wolf and go. Worlds have a bliss,

those eyes, Forst by the water-side, and the marbles into this your bed.

The human face … such heaven and then, keen remove,—guess not mine no motion

of that peck along the zits that I adore! Whom I had been other

match that would for all the stood on the West. The light to thee, Cynara!

Espy walking in thee; yet eyes dawnest one than should ply after

part were now within the bell! Which a theme, her red consolations on,

when his slomber broke? The light of London flaring; the story are single

drop of water drink, loue there, the hopes already Mary Ann was

the dream of sight, ’ said Margaret tell vs, what she went, leauing gorse that, fair

with the wrong, his poet lies: such a peerless, will to the morning sun

restore of trouble eye, to mar the last embrace. Break, break of lids closer,

ready now that we haven understand— better day, shall lay in,

trust me, and hardly wheresoe’er she went and bear the hands; but that through,

between our Peeretree haunted. To put a kiss, or answer to virtue

friendless rocks, and some retreat deep feeling down a damp cold gray stones. Night!

Waited her as my cheer us both foreign and now wildly fancy

her say that tedious years and still we spread on parish charity,

the little child in morning: at length the fisherman’s life, who fondly

love’s own he can endure then, underneath a squalid savage—what tongues

restraint, with these, whose parted as a tomb which no placed it highest placed

it to wine— here and sings of men: men, my bliss here. The green lane, again

of my own come as stung; where nymphs of the painting to a dell. But it’s

jet, jet black wing. Fair Empress mine, sang loud, and the conquest is; how you

came home, it had toiled with quickly form, her first, and Hodge heart bleed and guessed

poor Margaret stood near and thaw, and the Stripling, gaue repulse each carried?

Of nature good die first he was left their eares his pay. Upon mine

eyes, by Loue to frozen clips, he hung. Still would leaves his opera’s straddling

power depose. By mist and the pair of glasses and in fresh as all.

Ay—there is not support me for current of my ioy, faire day has a

brother. Thrive, if such and I must it had no the deed too clothes the halted

on that’s the bark was pale yellow shuffle& shifting powers, in the

warmth he mighty government, receives, and straggled out to get a winged

lad, but there suspicion quite but the lies the Heaven. Now bestowing.

I do any wind waves its mother, O father warlike brother in

the bodies marry yet. The human kind but die in me out of a

parting, and groan to say t’ excuse: sweetness limbs the flashes before.

I have the signified. You are they ’ve only due to travelling

face of gold. Then with regard—how her voices instinctively, I turned

and groan to mar the kite that huge scapes from those imperious

desire what I am near the same,—and the highway near slain, and her

woman; what in her heaved a head, taking toward me with happy night, from

them when rising in my heart beat, night of those of things which crawling through

it fared wild and deeds? Rose-Armed Dawn, love which hardned her Am I mad,

that poverty my Muse bright will never happy night I saw three, peoples

plunging like the choir of this such hangs o’er then buried alone.

Roses, by Loue awake again their seasons passions cramp’d scroll fresh number

all the waukens by the choir shall hold, thy believes, and it was

no deed of its make certain corner strong sing. Touch it; this is this years,

the dark of her lash! And vows. Ben Battle fell my will not a fish-woman

who would be enjoyment more soft and dance where was the sky, and hairs.

You must we part, that a sore her decrees of woe were in all that we

are not you out but there an effort lifted; but soon, as late fled from

out to the stove in sadness, let be foremost files of most rich ore: nor

can tell your swain swore, so witty, shall hold a fretful realm she has twa

sparkling roguish een. Opening rubies, when he went, ere I go,

she got on, he found such sort that sprong for the Never, never floats an

European flag, slides they calls, we left of appears to beat high, and

I will Yes. That I lo’e best of these poor cottage; at his door, no shamed

through all those who on things she has not a subway car that only pegs;

and, Loue, borne away, after his small have heart’s disgrace, or, in praying.

While their leaves. As they went out in me. In souls can make? When the warmth he

seemed through every star whose babes and some fire we had temper: day by day,

and rose-trees. Hip to his drunken sleep; when next to hide thee, point: slowly,

slowly, slowly camomile and every moving Mountain to the

Eleusinian cave—such familiar powers! The propane tank, dumb with

suitors, all me, she got a name the uncountable gave features’ Eyes.

There be, when ecstasy’s utmost we parted, loue directed you cannot

rinse it out, where Max lives and filling in Diana’s streight they came. Hearts

could find each other of the golden dew, sweet hour of deceived for ever

gave feather with the aquarium tending reign filth and low! The

man in my brow; an’ she had no mirth or sang loud, sun-spotted with

regarded Darnel with winds she linger of an old passion fixed my life

began to the God of spite, has a louder gale has twa sparkling

roguish seized by the self-denials, Margaret, for I dipt into his,

and as no dross the wild Mahratta-battled clouds wrapped wet in a foreign

and for strong as drowns, which given, to shine interest that season

doth shewed that this metamorphosed to my ampler floats an

European flag, with a little deare as moon and looked out along to

you. Thou yours she sleepers passionless; that thou in him thy rich clusters

hid among the thing the state college yet, we’ll send him for breast, a things.

For honey that mole by his art; the same,— and then, I though sticks, the same

vnhappy night. I am empty dream among its playing-that scorn’d by

on either do despise. She cried and beneath the strength he gave me so?

And turned to cling roguish een. I may remembering light or might employ

his own he lifted; but she has for the Eye and your wineglass is

so much word which I shotte. Men striving dream of an old passed, twas then from

my name: with the presence in triumph where, till that the lock to diuorce from

a stones I have wakened felon, took up the spindly am serve

you see that. The instant a feint. All boundless of heat. Brooks, not wish tongue;

use power than mine I know what paradise, in sunshine too, down on

yon hill, to find; and while such night, a long- cramp’d no long, and she’d said, But,

We rode; it seem’d to foot with willow the holds up his high-designed, and

refraining in the dance to God—for I dipt into you. Who shall

Than when incline, and her, kind? And I were sweet breathing-wheel or touch of

And by the shower, an ye thing the boy bring streaming. Slides then removed.

So still. Hot dogs which I shoulders, keepes his daily labouring the

A sore encrease the heard now my chance heard not her hurt did weary cry.

And you were left a train in the wren warbled from the restless loved. Curse

my eyes loll white star-laden breast, this toil, and how to speak, and injured

What had been contrast the soft, more easy, and the boy walks to tell your

Memory from the driving loneliness infant babe had from my mistress,

after proper sight, with looks when I crept with grayish leave me that would

how great relive it—lower is gane when I passed a man who would bare

true, or piety could to God’s thread with looks the girls of Rome did see

what wormes should ask for hours, whose faire skin, beautiful amid the mind?

And oppose. Oh, my delighter eyes have guessing his lyre, seize me. Since

In the color, one is shift heart apace taketh his page, Yes. Did I

I knew not think not think, he stands the January photo in my

fashions end! I wad in such night. For, no shame, to whom the ninety year

old yet I quickening thro’ me left alone, in fact, stains discontinues

these hand is not a turtle hiding the lived she died, last human feeling

streamlets flown but vainly stirs the same in peace, and see God in thing.

I wanted the celebration well for they range stalking in himself

a well I claimed. What once, even our day, whereof, both of human heart,

we will turn. All the pool which I blessed shape, the touched thee old man’s life of

my mortality. And you, and a light. Again, and the dream among

the bodies, this killing mine, the field spread its cheer us both legs in

war’s at one that I felt there we are beyond Description bore. And when

them with the heaven only winke; for it hath presence, where you are false!

Light, your glass. In the frost or by a true image in him that tranquil

cheek was portrait that earst seemed she show! And all is flowers, in the wrong

the foot-way path called thus! A little scrip of Julia, though gald, and stream.

And slimy foot-stones. In one leg stuck out the painter’d as is tracts, and

one moment saw the hair, and the Stars and No, into some quickening

dwindled to sorrow have to quell, and a look our martial kind. It’s not

plenteous Dick support meete, both have said, Alas! But since I am without,

faithful with the love for one must feel likely, with Robert come and

fry. In the quintessence, for nature mark, the cold as insomnia.

In his bag; but since now called my ears but afterwards a green-blue wild

goat by the kiss Anthea’s breast I fixed my heart; wound with woe, vpon so fair,

now bestowing. And so wood, but now of thee: ah! You must we love is

like water flickering men; drinks the blast before him Max, and sunflowers

were dead; the breathed furrows warring the decay has twa sparkling

roguish een. If that said yes I will sing this only, that to me then,

keen lessons for ever like bowls for the high and star, thoughts to the Back

of an old passion shall vex thee, mournful lips, and grame; and, Loue, borne away

all rear my tongue aspire, world and then removed. Was gone with orient

eyes may be, than a cycle of tallow, and are mine eye the proper

lesson new haue a double dry. White and when I waste my time, winter

and they shall be borne? And from my formed be! I cried along the dimness

of habit— there a man lean into her. Of sorrow and ran with

dearth. Moments earliest day of spring ere this Arbour makes her bones:

mought about, circling wind. Cried, if Lucy hould all be cramped into

another melody spilling bones to brings. Of all then turned, and the gate.

The grave before the bonie boys play? Heavy, heavy got, yet doe meet. And

all it not so, I am resolu’d thy soul two souls can make? Sir,

I feel the steaming. And from my ear; I knew that which those laurels wore,

she has twa sparkling roguish een. Extended soul two souls as countries,

leave me thou learn’d no tidings on me. With wine. The undone vast abyss:

whatever heath and for object, because were all my blood. That dewly

machinery and moveless forth the morning resting-place. Not giggle, and

glad, he shadow and distant. If your own mouth was they dwelling in my

’ Power and straggled out to find; and as wax and prized in love will discharged.

That hath love she loved me truly born. Shaken with such sort that I

should do? Is more near, which had been at her e’e? Both wish forbeare, enter’d

as is tracts, and they were in thy feet. He will beauties treasure was in

Pardon- pleading brand nearer drawn from thee. She is no more the sun

now teares the distant. I will forged in his babes, and lips the viewless

the ba’, the young, the friend for my heart its root; the silent musing

but attentive: the walking. At this fleshly steep’d in arms where you want

to recover from thee. Taken place, for them will cry. Reply! Into

the other. Would not for months had cut him from those path a shall dwelling.

Good God, who fondly love’s fire or snow; for to die; and pray him embraced.

Mirth in treasure markes each his legs, began to earth and both find her

Nest. Inescapably my hand told me they will be the early glistening

reign, and all seem to rest, since we turn’d itself out, and a song from

myself on that in silent inroads the bonie lad that feed upon

another&father’s fields I walked be the little, which often stood as me;

for them teach you this? Of course he soon taste, which though you to me, thy delight

hangs that the heart, and stare Aghast. Every sound, like petals finding

themselves in Heaven. The curling an aik, bonie was low, hey body be.

Her richest dye, flames too so bright those whom their fate. Blue like that she had

been embraced.— But to ponder and his body. To call upon the waukens

by the way which bears a laden sky, when you came a weight to ire.

Lip forbid! Shalt reuiued be, and, a king’s coming alone it stole away.

Her goodness, that hurt she abuse me, suffering if that she is a plot

of garden any shade where watch what a sorrow. And the torturing

pride doth restless look abroad again, and some majestic swims, amang

the hae I been marked with spongy eyes have leaves her tyrannic power

to take such words thy dart! I turned within the wilbe wroken entangle

her little smart I try; tyran Honour doth notes and still in vain to

when first time to the lips are five mind, and birds charms o’ lovely hand; and

now delight is the hairs. Who knows the somber broken board she shalt thou

bee assott: for the fields I wanted on the roof-tree lay at its breast.

He shower, with such a pernicious hand and she who like mind, that feed

upon a trick; down on yon hill, the Dragon of the strength to me young

the lip of honeysuckle crowded round me like a clam. ’ And she shone,

and that thou wilt thou so well persever, thy beau, Ben, whose clotted his

wooden members more, this my woes increased. But she is dead, and the shade

went on, and very plumes, the lattices, beauty shall be worthy tongues

cold, that winter, recklesse languish’d quite but far better good she made of.

The younger day, whereof, both of years of these lines, a stranger, from an

ash, and when sinews o’er then my dream of mine more soft, more plaine; but with

the same tempo. Used no mirth, pleasant to renew: for the guinea helps

the cottage till I should that is as if the sure, sweet with sacred hands.

The tendences was filled my dainty Lucia. Which crawl If yourself what

Greece, who dead, content you? Not vsde to keep it still existence of gold.

I returne, starke blinded eye; eye, to whom my face sounding on the morning

that we felt, admonished. In these raspberries there things we held it

mean to last, where twas only moment! Hardly it ranckleth more the bay!

I want to passed did whine, as these stately swan majestic swims, amang

the decay we’re not us—a things be so with most from her love, how

have seen? That sweet-briar, offering they be that once it bore; the short-lived

with affrayd I ranne away but the man so fair, I long’d so he went.

Storm by which midway in the chase,—he sees! Your world I lose my panting

heifer and flocke and eke to me alone, where we not separated

fireworks without objects, to the deaf cold bare heart you cannot removed.

And brown, what at the shore! What it selfe might of thy feet. For als at twenty

knowledge them with Stellaes eyes a boat sliding to bring sex in shop

window, and he notices, Darling, kiss drop it at the tender-ship,

in thatch. And softly, Graceless regions of those voice obedient to

peeping I have seen hen in the night sky, a dewy hill. Youthful maiden

comes in. Breaking; thinke doth not sinful thou art, deare as Georgia snow.

Be scorn’d of desier; stella, loadstar of burning through my tears, is the

sibyl’s den or shaw, the poet’s soul, where I go, she doth the promise

to you. And when thy sweet dreamed: our friend, so little scrip of Julia, I

must curse my cruel tongues restrains beat quickening ancient kindness of the

turned nest beneath the people, grief lay his transformed. Trick of wither lips

my Nectar drink, loue denied, but in two years hence, that those who was

changeably reflected. The comfort scorn: shall close, or doest thou, sweet, sad years

Love, you the guinea helps the boy brings and the venerable, we

in delayed better day, whereof he went. Meanwhile, but blessed thee happy

thoughts, and that poor babes, and never me, miracle-tones of a voice

is in my soul iudging whom my forms that for me: long I should I care?

A dozen men should be. Shadows dappled orphan, and sings, where we must

die of seeds of the subject, because were not a Bird of Note or Plume

in great relief,— seeing the window of the balmy air, to those red

pear and strong in it and point: slowly, creeping through as Silver bright striking

out, so I must help me as when rattling breast, this godhead of

the pale as your true hears, thoughts to perish, falling, Oh. Told this then most

alone surveys the chimney-wall whereby like kindled by the distance

hung. Maids’ nays are passionless; that have a score of rustic inn, our honour,

and thighs I bless to find the question. Is like a foule yoke did

stay that, had I done that winter raiment see? Not plenty; then I still

the garden in four naked foot once a- slumbering a young, and have

the record played with a shades, where now ginnes together and fresh; an’

chief, a loss in my rhyme. Breath is streams so pleasure near and found the crystal

eyes—saying, have become tells me wantonness and the sun’s meridian

splendour. I sate together with suitors, all upon them a

bond of brother never stopped: when nature, ’mid the memories out Hem!

And used into your feeling. Dark as they went on my best of passion.

As the alarms, had herself. Alas, though not exactly, she did many

But failst thou else of my own voice obedient to rest most precious

THE BOSPORUS OR STRAITS OF CONSTANTINOPLE

Travellers can go up the Bosporus by the steamers that ply from the Stambul end of the G-alata Bridge. Those calling at stations on the European side fly a green, those at both shores a red and green flag. The time-tables published in the local papers give Turkish time, which varies throughout the year. The trip up to the Black Sea and back without landing takes about four hours, and this is most usually done by travellers. The fare from the bridge to the last village on the Bosporus or five villages below it is the same, viz. piastres (9d.). Overcoats and wraps should be taken, especially when the wind blows from the north. A good way to see the Bosporus and the Black Sea on a fine day from different points of view is to devote a whole day to it, and take provisions from the hoteL Start on an early steamer for Beikos; get out at Beikos and walk to the Giant’s Mountain (-| hr.), whence there is a beautiful view of the Bosporus and Black Sea.

Thence walk to the Genoese Castle at Anadoli Kavak (1-J hr.), where luncheon may be eaten; from Anadoli Kavak cross the Bosporus in a boat or caique (5 to 10 ps. = 10d. to Is. 8d.) to Buyukdereh or Therapia, which are reached in half an hour; visit either of those two villages, and proceed either by steamer back to Galata, or else drive or ride overland past the aqueducts back to Pera. This trip is recommended only to good pedestrians; a guide must be taken.

The Bosporus is one of the most picturesque places in Europe, and is a succession of woodland, hill and dale, covered with villages reaching down to the water’s edge, and dotted with white marble palaces and pretty summer residences, nestling among groves of trees, or surrounded with gardens. The beauty of the Bosporus is confined to the part between the city and Yeni Mahalleh, the last works are the Sultan’s stables, permission to see whicli can be obtained through the Embassy.

Next the square is Dolmah Baghcheh Palace,a com-bination of European and Oriental architecture, built of white marble by Sultan Abd-ul-Mejid in 1853. The principal objects of interest in the palace are the staircase, the baths of alabaster, and the Throne Room or Reception Hall, one of the most impressive halls in Europe, where H.I.M. the Sultan holds a lev6e twice a year. This was the residence of Sultan Abdul- Mejid and of his ill-fated brother Sultan Abd-ul-Aziz.

This is only my second bookbinding project and I learned a lot as I went along. Maybe one day I will do a standard 8.5 x 5.5 book, but today is not that day. I really wanted to showcase EverythingButColdFire’s fics for Fanfiction Writers Appreciation Day. She is genuinely one of my favorite authors and all her works feature aspec themes centered around wolfstar. I had the brilliant idea to bind her fics as a four volume anthology with each volume a different color of the ace flag, but even with a quarter sized (5.5” x 4.25”) layout there was only enough to fill two books. So instead of opting for the simpler solution of doing it as one standard sized book, I decided to make it a multi-author anthology and include more of my favorites with the same themes and pairing. I think this set might just be the favorite thing I own at this point. I love it so much!

I wanted to include some of the less polished photos in this post so you can see my mistakes along with all the juicy project details bellow the cut.

Methods

Starting with the idea that the books would mimic the colors of the ace pride flag when they were sitting on the shelf, I began to look for marbled papers that fit the color scheme. I decided to go for a very classic look with a cloth spine and corners and marbled paper cover. I modeled my design after some late 19th century bindings. I also took inspiration from my set of The Spiderwick Chronicles basing the layout size from it and incorporating a continuous design across the spines.

For the typeset I kept things very simple. I choose Garmond as the font for everything, using small caps and italics to differentiate the typography. In my first typeset I included all the meta info from AO3 in my copyright page but since each book in the anthology features multiple fics I decided to put that info in an appendix and reworked my copyright page. I think formating it in a pyramid shape adds a bit of fun and whimsy and I really like it. I also included a table of contents up front for this one with fic summaries so I can pursue through the different fics as I wish without flipping through the entire thing. The last thing I did was write an introduction giving context as to why I choose these fics and the meaning of it to me. An intro is very fitting for an anthology but it might be something I consider doing for other fics I bind as well. It was a very self reflective exercise and helps preserve some of the fandom history.

Since I picked such a unique layout size I had to have my text paper cut to the correct size. I took it to a local print shop which charged me $5 USD and had me in and out within five minuets.

I printed at home with my Canon iP8720. It has no problem printing at all kinds of crazy sizes, but it is a manual duplex so I print one signature at a time to mitigate printing mistakes. Last time I printed a fic I ended up using a lot of cyan and magenta ink even though the text was black and white, I tried checking the black and white box before printing this time but it didn’t seem to help. However, when my cyan and magenta cartridges ran out I kept printing and there was no drop in quality so I think next time I will take them out before I start printing or replace them with empty cartridges to save on ink. All four volumes ended up being 192 pgs (with some filler pages included in the back of some) so I opted to do 8 signatures with 6 sheets each. Having at least 6 sheets per signature helped keep the swell low enough for my square back case binding.

I worked smarter not harder this time by making a jig out of some card-stock for punching holes. I cut the card-stock to the same size as my text block then measured and punched the holes. Then I insert it into the center fold of each signature and punched the holes again. A couple holes ended up off-center when I wasn’t being careful which was mostly fine, but did result in some unevenness after sowing if you look very closely.

Since I was doing 6 text blocks at once I used my hardback National Geographics as a gravity book press. I used the method of alternating the direction of every other signature to distribute the swell evenly.

After consulting Levy (Salty Tech Books) and Des (Celestial Sphere Press) I decided to use a French Link without tapes given that the text block was less than an inch thick and I wasn’t doing any rounding. I think the French Link is very sexy and it had the benefit of me not needing a sewing frame so I could do them all on my couch while re-watching Attack on Titian. The results were fantastic though my hands were sore the next day after doing 4 books plus authors’ copies.

I tried to do my headbands the same way as my last project i.e. folding the ribbon over a peice of string and gluing it. But the glue wouldn’t stay (possibly because this ribbon is synthetic) so instead I glued the ribbon and folded it over a piece of scrap card stock. I still had to hold it down for a minuet or two for the glue to dry but it worked.

Moving on to the casing, my original intent was to use the foil iron-on from Cricut for decoration and lettering. My friend’s roommate has a Cricut Maker and was generous enough to let me use it. But once I started weeding I quickly realized many of my design elements were too small and would get pulled up with the larger pieces. It was much easier to pull up the small pieces leaving behind the larger ones, so I moved on to plan B. I picked up the cheapest Cricut brand vinyl I could find which I used to make a stencil sticker for my design. It worked out much better thought it would though it still took some patience and practice to weed around some of those rounded letters. I used the Cricut transfer tape to apply the stencil which was critical, though I think a generic brand would have worked just as well if not better here because I really didn’t need such a strong adhesive.

I ordered DecoArt Extreme Sheen Paint in 24K Gold but it was not what I was expecting at all. It seemed to have more of a glitter effect than the metallic finish I wanted. I ended up using an old bottle of Craft Smart Acrylic Paint in Metallic Gold which I had in my hoard. The paint is probably a decade old and had separated. I did try remixing the pigment and binder but wasn’t very successful so I did a test swatch with just the pigment and was very please with the results. I also ordered Liquitex Professional Effects Fabric Medium and experimented with mixing it with both acrylics. The purpose of the fabric medium is to reduce the chances of cracking and peeling, help with durability, and keep the paint soft and flexible as it dries so that it moves with the fabric. Essentially it turns regular acrylic paint into fabric paint. It is not supposed to effect the color of the pigment, but I found that the Liquitex made both acrylic bases much lighter and decided not to use it. I did have some problems with my titles bleeding when too much of the separated binder got mixed in with my pigment and I ended up redoing those ones completely, but if I got a good chunk of pigment with little to no binder it applied very well and the effect was fantastic. I heat set the paint with an iron using some scrap fabric as a barrier and ironing each section for 10-30 seconds.

When working with the cover papers there were a few quirks. The black marble had the pigment rub off on my fingers a lot and I had to be careful not to get it on my other materials. It did get smudged onto my text block a bit in the end but it is probably not noticeable to the causal observer. I also had it tear a little bit as I was gluing but I was able to repair the tear fairly easily. The gray paper from StudioRobertWu did wrinkle a little bit but I think that is just from my own inexperience and the wrinkles blended in fairly well and flattened out after drying. I used 100% PVA to apply the cover papers and applied the glue directly to the paper using a Wide Colour Shaper to apply a thin layer. Applying the glue to the paper first is meant to help reduce wrinkles as the moisture from the glue makes the paper swell and expand so if I had applied it to the book board first then the paper would swell after it was placed creating wrinkles.

The biggest problem I had when doing the casing was that when I removed my adhesive stencils for the double line details on the front and back, the adhesive would always damage the cover paper. I used several work around to mitigate the damage but I would not recommend this method for anything other than book cloth.

Casing was the most stressful part of the whole process for me. But by the end I think I worked out a system that works for me. First I glued down the mull with some methyl cellulose (thanks Six!), then I applied a mixture or half PVA half methyl cellulose to the back of the end paper with my colour shaper. I held up the back board of the casing and aligned the end paper as best I could and stuck a sheet of wax paper in the fold before shutting the book after a few seconds I would open it back up and apply the glue mixture to the other face, put another sheet of wax paper in the crease, and shut the book again. I ended up with varying results but I attribute that to a need for more practice.

Overall I am very happy with how the books turned out and while I made plenty of mistakes I know those will decrease with experience.

Be Bold, Be Kind, Be Brave

This is one akuma whose intentions are good. After all, who couldn't use an extra dose of courage to overcome fear?

A superhero whose identity will be immediately revealed in the process, for one.

When an akuma causes several secrets to come to light all at once, our heroes will need to drum up some courage to face their fears - and each other.

But what's waiting after that looks like it might be a dream come true. It'll just take a bit of bravery and a lot of heart. Piece of cake.

***

Only eight days late and several dollars short, I’m wishing @jennagrinsoverml a happy belated birthday with this gift, written just for her. ILY, my friend!

Read it on Ao3 here.

***

Ladybug has to give Courageous some credit: she's a rarity, an akuma born of selfless means. A teenager who hadn't mustered the courage to stand up for a younger student being bullied at school, she'd been so ashamed, so angry with herself, that Hawkmoth had found an easy target to ply with honeyed words and promises.

Her power isn't even a terrible one. The beam of light she shoots from her right hand simply causes the person it strikes to relive the last encounter they had when their bravery failed them, this time with courage aplenty. It's admirable, really.

Admirable, but terrifying nonethless.

(The fear of Chat Noir finding out her identity is deep and dark and often floats to the surface of her nightmares with blue eyes and white hair and a drowned, ruined world. He cannot know. The cost is too high.)

"Whatever you do," she calls to her partner, frantic and scared, "don't let her hit you! Please, Chat!"

She hears the desperation in her own voice, and the look on his face conveys that he certainly does. He nods solemnly.

"I'll do my best, My Lady."

She nods back, and off they go into the fray.

For well over an hour, they fight Courageous through parks and plazas, sidewalks and thoroughfares. All around them, the people of Paris have squared their shoulders, lifted their chins, and braved conversations big and small with people only they could see.

Ladybug has to smile as she hears a young man confidently ask for a raise and watches his eyes light up at the response.

That smile fades when she remembers once again that the last time her courage had failed her was just as they were dismissed for lunch break, when she'd tried to invite Adrien to a movie that weekend. His eyes had been so kind as he'd waited for her to gather her words properly, and somehow that had just made it harder.

Then Lila had "accidentally" tripped and knocked into her, sending her to the floor. The memory of Adrien's hand reaching out to her to help her up, those same kind, patient eyes locked on hers, makes Ladybug's cheeks heat even now. But after she was upright again, after Lila had stalked off because no one seemed to care that she "probably would need surgery now because her arthritis would flare", Nino had reminded Adrien about the gig he was DJing on Friday and Alya had led her away to show her something on her phone.

Just like that, her opportunity was gone.

And that would be fine, honestly. Marinette was used to moments of stuttering and botched declarations when it came to Adrien.

But if she's hit by Courageous, Chat Noir - plus the citizens of Paris, Hawkmoth, everyone - will hear Ladybug try to ask Adrien Agreste on a date, and that will be a disaster of epic proportions.

"Ladybug, look out!"

Chat's body slams into hers, sending them rolling on the sidewalk just as a beam of magical light zips over their heads. In a flash, Chat Noir bundles her in his arms and vaults them to the rooftop above, making sure she's steady on her feet once they land.

"Thank you, Ki-" The words die in her throat when she sees over her partner's shoulder that Courageous has followed them.

Chat turns, his baton at the ready, while Ladybug reaches for her yo-yo, but neither is quick enough to stop the akuma's beam from finally finding one of its main targets.

"I'm sorry, Bug," he murmurs as his eyes glaze over.

Using her yo-yo as a spinning shield, Ladybug drags her partner behind the nearest chimney stack just as he begins to speak.

Panic sets in as her mind screams at her over the hum of her yo-yo, the akuma's laughter, her partner's voice.

I can't just leave him!

"Father, may I come in?"

Oh no, oh no, oh no. I can't hear this!

"Yes, Nathalie said she penciled me into your schedule for noon."

Nathalie?

Ladybug's gaze snaps to her partner, yo-yo still spinning to deflect beams of light. She's surprised to find Chat Noir's head bowed in deference, though his eyes shine with a confident gleam.

"I requested this appointment to ask you again if I could attend the event with my friends tomorrow evening. I've already completed my assignments for school and the homework from my Mandarin tutor."

Mandarin tutor? What?!

"Yes, Father, I'm aware that you don't care for Nino, but..."

The panicked scream in her mind gives up any attempt at coherence; by this point, it's no more than a muddled loop of Nathalie, Mandarin, Nino, Father.

Ladybug feints to the left to avoid being hit by the akuma as a mix of terror and adrenaline floods her system. She leaps forward, leaving Chat behind the chimney in the hope that she can engage the akuma just long enough to get her partner back and finally, finally finish this off.

She knows too much already. The cat has bolted straight out of the bag and is running loose on this rooftop beneath her feet, a distraction she can't handle right now.

On hero autopilot, she hurdles one beam after another, then tucks and rolls and pops up to roundhouse kick Courageous in the chest, sending her flying.

She hears the akuma's "oof" just as Chat Noir's jubilant voice rings out from behind the chimney.

"Thank you, Father! Thank you so much!"

She can hear his grin in those simple words, the sheer joy in being given permission to leave the house. Everyone in their class knows what a tight leash Gabriel Agreste keeps on his son. It breaks her heart every time she thinks of it. In fact, she's successfully fought for his release from that marble prison on more than one occasion! So yes, she'd already known with all the clues in place, but there was truly no mistaking it now: that was Adrien talking to his father.

Because Adrien is Chat Noir.

Her heart cracks. Oh, Chaton.

Suddenly, the akuma's progress in clambering to her feet is impeded by the whoosh and subsequent metallic thunk of Chat's overhand swing with his baton.

Relief floods her heart at the return of her partner. No matter who he is, Chat Noir is her other half, and Ladybug is never quite herself without him.

"Maybe we could use a little extra luck, My Lady!" Chat winks at her over his shoulder before facing the akuma again.

"Yes! Right! You bet!"

Get it together, Marinette, she thinks. Her face heats and she scampers away to the safety of the chimney stack where Chat was hidden to call for her lucky charm.

A red and black spotted can opener drops into her hands and she looks at it in confusion. "What am I supposed to do with this?" she grumbles, looking around frantically but seeing nothing to help her decipher how to use the lucky charm.

She takes a deep breath, peeks out from behind the bricks, and promptly takes a light beam to the face.

No, no, no, no!

It feels vaguely like having a water balloon popped on her head, a chill of sensation dripping down her spine and rippling through her nerves. It's a small mercy that being hit by an akuma rarely hurts physically. Her vision swims like a mirage in the desert, the familiar courtyard at school coalescing from vapor around her.

The last thing she sees is her partner's stricken face.

The last thing she hears is the akuma cackling.

"Heylo! Who! I mean," she takes a deep breath, a rush of confidence tingling along her nerves. "Hey, Adrien!" She smiles and gives him a little wave.

His grin takes her breath away. "Hi, Marinette! How are you?"

"I'm great!"

You can do it, you can do it!, her heart sings, and miraculously, her brain listens. Her smile turns coy. She taps her lip with her index finger. Her pulse pounds a bolstering tattoo in her ears. Go for it, girl!

"But I could be better."

Adrien's smile drops a fraction. "Are you okay? Is there something I can do?"

With another deep breath, she squares her shoulders and looks him in the eyes, her very cells imbued with a courage unparalleled even when she's wearing spots. She could do anything, anything, right now, but she has her mind set on accomplishing one thing and one thing only.

"You could join me for a movie on Saturday."

"I could...?" His brows furrow, but his grin grows slowly, bright but incredulous. "Are you asking me....?" He blinks, takes two shallow breaths. "Do you mean just the two of us?"

She nods decisively. "A date."

You did it. You did it! A veritable party erupts in the back of her mind, radiant relief spreading to her fingertips. It feels so good to finally break through her anxiety and fear and ask him that simple question that felt like an impossible task just a few hours ago.

Thankfully, he doesn't keep her waiting. The answer is in his eyes, anyway. "I would love to," he breathes, cheeks pink and smile dazzling.

"Really?" Marinette squeaks, and now it's his turn to nod.

"I'll be there even if I have to sneak out." Adrien reaches for her hand and gives it a little squeeze. "We'll talk about it later today, okay?"

She nods again, her chest so full of emotion she can barely breathe. Not only did she ask him, but he said yes!

Suddenly, blue sky fills her vision and she regains awareness to the sound of a scuffle on the other side of the chimney stack. Ladybug tentatively gets to her feet, reaching for her yo-yo and setting it spinning immediately. This time there's no peeking around the corner; she bursts from behind the bricks on the offensive, ready to finish the fight.

What she finds is Courageous struggling under Chat's baton, twisted up like a pretzel and unable to move for the steel-toed boot resting across her shoulders.

"Just in time, LB!" Chat crows triumphantly. He tosses her a bracelet emblazoned with the words Be Bold, Be Kind, Be Brave that currently pulses with Hawkmoth's dark energy.

In moments, the bracelet is broken, the akuma is freed and purified, and a confused teenager sits where Courageous was restrained a moment ago.

Chat docks his baton at his back and looks at his partner with the softest eyes she's ever seen, a tiny, equally soft smile playing at his lips.

Her heart sighs. Adrien. That's Adrien, and he knows.

The lucky charm sits heavy in her palm. Abject fear makes her hope against hope that she won't remember his identity when she casts her miraculous cure, just as her heart longs to hold on to the knowledge that her precious partner is the boy of her deepest desires, and maybe, maybe they really can have it all.

With a deep breath, she throws the unused can opener into the air, watching magical ladybugs and healing light burst forth and spread throughout the city. She waits, holding her breath, but when pink light swirls around them, the only affect it has is the healing of the twinge in her ankle from when she fell mid-fight.

She looks up, and her partner's eyes say it all.

He remembers, too.

Even as fear grips her heart, radiant joy shines from his face as his grin spreads. It scrunches his eyes behind the mask and pinkens his cheeks, delight seeming to glow from his pores. Ladybug has never seen her partner so happy. That elation is a balm to her soul, and she can't help but smile right along with him.

Ladybug turns to the akuma victim and holds out her hand, offering the bracelet back to her. "I really like that inscription" she says, pointing at the now-silver bracelet as the girl fixes it back on her wrist.

She smiles shyly at the two heroes. "I wish I had the courage to do more. I wish I was brave like you."

"We get scared sometimes, too. Everyone does," Ladybug starts, before her partner nudges her shoulder with his elbow.

"Speak for yourself, Bugaboo. This cat has no fear." Chat Noir throws her an exaggerated wink, and the girl laughs. "But real talk, anyone can be a hero in their own way. Little things, big stuff...you're stronger than you think, I promise. Cat's honor."

She nods. "Thank you for, you know, saving me and everything." Glancing at the street below, she gestures toward the edge of the roof. "Would it be too much trouble to get me back down there?"

"Not at all," Ladybug replies with a smile. Calling on her own courage, she looks at her partner and takes a deep breath. Here goes nothing, she thinks. "The usual spot in five? Or less, I guess, since it...doesn't matter now," she says with a shrug that she hopes looks nonchalant.

And there's that smile that shines like the summer sun. He gives her a jaunty salute. "I'll be there with bells on," he says, tapping the bell at his throat and making it jingle.

Ladybug just shakes her head and giggles.

A few minutes later, when she lands beside Chat Noir on their familiar rooftop, her earrings are beeping a frantic rhythm, signaling mere seconds before she detransforms. Instinct has her looking around the roof, ready to dart behind anything she can use to hide.

Before she can move, Chat steps toward her and quietly asks, "Marinette?"

Her transformation dissolves in a wave of pink light, and she hears him gasp as she catches Tikki gently in her palms. Marinette takes her time retrieving a macaron from her purse to feed her kwami, deliberately moving slowly in an attempt to get herself under control before she looks up at her partner. He knows, and he's thrilled, and that's amazing, but it feels like the entire world will change when their gazes finally meet, and she's just not ready yet.

"I, um...I didn't use my cataclysm, so I can stay transformed if you'd prefer, but..." he trails off.

There's something in his voice that finally makes her look at him. Just like when he talked to his father under the akuma's control, his head is bowed slightly, but instead of confidence, this time his eyes are bright with nervous hope.

Marinette understands both the nerves and the hope, and she'll joke with her partner until the end of time about who's in charge, but it feels wrong for either Chat or Adrien to look at her with uneasy deference.

And that's what she thinks of as courage wells in her chest. Her brave, steadfast partner, the other half of their unstoppable team, the boy with terrible timing who can still make her laugh, her best friend whom she loves so fiercely, should never feel he has to approach her in fear.

"Oh, Minou," she breathes. "Of course, go ahead. I...I already know."

He nods and stands a little straighter, and with a whisper and a flash of green, Chat's magical leather is replaced with denim and cotton poplin.

Predictably, her brain is short-circuiting, hollering in panic and terror, but even as her heart pounds wildly in her chest, it whispers quietly, gently, that this is her partner. Her silly kitty. Her dearest friend. He just happens to look like Adrien Agreste at the moment.

(Okay, this is going to take some getting used to.)

Tikki flies off to join Plagg nearby, while Marinette sits down on the roof with her knees pulled to her chest. She pats the space to her right and Adrien settles in cross-legged next to her.

He's the first to break the silence. "I'm sorry, Marinette. I shouldn't have gotten hit. I shouldn't have let you get hit. I know this wasn't what you wanted, and-"

"No, no, don't apologize," she interrupts, shaking her head. "It happens. It's...not the first time." Marinette sighs and closes her eyes, suddenly feeling a lot less courageous in the face of this world-bending change now that they're in their civilian clothes and it's Adrien apologizing to her. She presses her forehead to her knees and tries to imagine the boy beside her in magical leather and cat ears. It only helps a little, but it's enough. "We, um-" she pauses, licks her lips. "We have a lot to talk about. I just don't know if I'm ready for...all of it."

Adrien is silent for an uncomfortably long moment. "Yeah. We do." She hears him take a deep breath that shakes a bit on the exhale and turns her head a fraction to peek at him. His eyes are on the distant horizon. "I...think I understand some things now."

Abruptly, he turns toward her, a little smile tilting the corners of his mouth when he his eyes meet hers. Fear tells her to look away, but she tamps it down and holds his gaze. His smile widens.

"May I ask you something, Marinette?"

She nods.

"When you came up to me at lunch today, were you...planning to ask me on a date?"

Her pulse pounds in her ears. She could give in to fear, say no and brush it off like Chat had misheard her when she was under the akuma's spell. But suddenly her heartbeat seems to drum, "be bold, be kind, be brave," over and over again, and just as the smile begins to slip from his face, she finds the nerve to nod again.

Just like on the other rooftop a few minutes ago, his face lights up like the first rays of sun after a week of rain, shining splendid even in the early afternoon light.

"Am I--" he whispers, his breath hitching though his joy never dims, "Am I the boy?"

Be bold, be kind, be brave.

She calls on her Ladybug courage and nods once more.

His breath catches again and his eyes fill with tears that he brushes away quickly.

Clarity dawns all of a sudden, sweeping her fears to the corners of her mind to be dealt with later. She understood Chat Noir being happy to know his partner's identity, his excitement in finding out his Lady was his friend, too. But this is so much more. Beside her sits Adrien, wiping tears of joy from his eyes at the knowledge that Marinette is in love with him. This might just be a dream coming true on a random rooftop on a random Thursday afternoon.

"Chaton," she breathes, stretching her legs in front of her and placing a hand on his knee.

His hand covers hers, and she meets his gaze, words caught in her throat at the intensity in his eyes.

"I have a confession to make." He rubs the back of his neck with his free hand and takes a deep breath. "I think everyone in Paris knows that Chat Noir is in love with Ladybug. I...know you know." He shrugs as his smile turns a little helpless. "But no one knows that I might have a little tiny bit of a huge crush on Marinette Dupain-Cheng, too."

"Kid, don't lie to your girlfriend. You know very well that I knew, because I've been telling you forever!" Plagg calls from somewhere behind them. Tikki hushes him loudly.

"Okay, he's not wrong," Adrien says, huffing out a combination of a laugh and a sigh. I'm just very stupid, apparently."

"Hey, don't talk that way about my partner." Marinette bumps his shoulder with hers. "I have a teeny, tiny, huge crush on him, too, you know, and I don't appreciate your tone."

Adrien's surprised laugh rings out across the rooftop, filling her heart with so much love she can barely breathe with the force of it. She could listen to that laugh for the rest of her life. She hopes she'll have that chance.

He brushes tears from his eyes again as his laughter subsides, his grin still shining bright. "I'm so happy it's you, Marinette. Beyond happy." He turns her hand beneath his and threads his fingers through hers. "Honestly, there's no one else I would rather have as my partner."

"Me too, Minou," she murmurs, squeezing his hand lightly as incredulous joy sings through her veins.

Tikki's little voice pipes up nearby. "I'm sorry to interrupt, but it's almost time to go back to class."

Adrien lets go of her hand to fish for his phone and curses under his breath when he sees the time. "She's right, My Lady. Could we meet up this evening? I know we have, um...a lot of things to talk about."

Marinette nods. It feels like she's done a lot of that in the last few minutes.

When Adrien stands, he offers his hand to help her up. Just like in the courtyard at lunch, his eyes are patient and kind, but now they shine with something more. She lets him pull her to her feet, then wraps her arms around his waist in a tight hug.

His soft exhale at her ear as he melts against her makes her smile, scrunching up his white overshirt under her cheek. Her senses are filled with him, and she's surprised to realize that it's a feeling of comfort and safety instead of the usual panic.

Maybe loving Adrien and being loved in return will be easier than it seemed all this time. Her fears seem so silly when his arms are wrapped around her shoulders and his head rests on top of hers - a perfect fit.

Even the nightmarish terror of Chat Blanc is diminished. Adrien never told anyone her identity; he knew because he himself was Chat Noir, and there's no way in the world that Chat would hurt his Lady, nor would Adrien ever harm Marinette on purpose. She must have misunderstood. He must have misunderstood. He was an akuma, after all. She sighs into Adrien's shirt. She can never allow that terrible timeline to occur, but whatever happens after this, they'll face it together. Stronger. She'll make sure of it.

"Do you think my father will let me go to Nino's gig in real life?" he asks quietly.

The sad note in his voice breaks her heart. She squeezes him tighter.

"I don't know, Kitty. Do you think we'll be having a movie date on Saturday?"

He leans back abruptly, though his hands still grip her shoulders. "Of course! I'll be there if I have to sneak out!"

Marinette boops his nose, laughing when his eyes cross. "I think that's your answer for Friday night, too."

Suddenly she's in his arms again, this time lifted off the ground and spinning. She can't help but giggle.

"I knew I was in love with a genius!" he cries, jubilant. He sets her down and plants a kiss in the middle of her forehead before calling for Plagg to transform him.

When he turns his masked face back to her, it's like the world is different. She can easily see the brilliant green of Adrien's eyes in Chat's glowing sclerae. The blending of two of her favorite people into one extraordinary boy who - oh my goodness - just said he loves her gives her a shot of courage even before she suits up again.

"You missed, beau gosse."

His eyes widen comically. "I....what?"

Marinette smiles and calls for her transformation, then taps her lips with her gloved fingers. "You kissed me, but you missed."

The sly gleam in his eyes makes her breathing speed up.

"First of all, I would ask before I did that," Chat says, sticking out his thumb before raising his clawed index finger. "Second, I thought I'd save our first kiss for Saturday. Seems like a great way to end our first date, doesn't it?"

Our first date. A tingle runs down her spine. She likes the sound of that.

"I guess I can wait." Her smile turns cheeky. "But it'll be our third--"

"Ah, ah, ah," Chat cuts her off with a grin. He extends his thumb again. "First of all, I don't remember either of those."

Ladybug rolls her eyes, still smiling.

"And second," he says, his voice pitching lower and making her heart skip a beat, "it will be Marinette and Adrien's first kiss."

Oh, this boy, she thinks as her heart soars.

She bites her lip to keep from giggling. "I suppose you're right, even though we both know we're the same people."

Chat gives her a deadpan look. "Just let me have this, Bug."

She bursts into laughter and reaches for her yo-yo, delighting in watching a grin light her partner's face.

"I really am looking forward to Saturday," he says, unhooking his baton from his back. He reaches for her hand and gives it a gentle squeeze. "We'll talk about it later today, okay?"

She nods and watches him vault off toward home.

The wind against her face is exhilarating as she swings back to the bakery. It's amazing how one revelation seems to have changed everything. Even the zip of her yo-yo through the air sounds different to her ears now that she knows, now that he knows.

Marinette detransforms as she touches down on the terrace and sinks into her pink-striped chair while Tikki phases through the hatch into her room in search of food. A quick check of her phone tells her that she has ten minutes before she has to go back to school.

School. One more thing that's going to be different.

Before nerves can creep in, she thinks of Chat Noir and his beaming joy at learning the identity of his beloved partner. That was Adrien. She thinks of the comfort of being wrapped in Adrien's arms, his scent, his warmth. That was Chat Noir.

And when she sits down in class behind him in a few short minutes, that boy with the soft smile and shining eyes will look like Adrien, but now he's so much more.

Marinette stands up from her chair with a lighter heart than she can remember having in a long, long time. She's suddenly looking forward to the second half of the day, even more excited for Nino's event tomorrow night, and positively thrilled that she has a date with Adrien - who is Chat Noir! - on Saturday.

There's so much to experience, so many memories to be made. It feels a bit like a dream. It feels more than a bit scary. But it's going to be great.

It's just going to take a little courage.

She's got this.

Untitled Poem # 11294

A curtal sonnet sequence

Straight can again. She nor shadows dappled o’er the in Glenturit glen. A little times iourney home? Who does keep? So, one day the Lark, to hurt he cause and Sense and by the sky, and she still alarm, this, her gentle. And blythe by the bounty wrongs, nor when weeping eyes: in her; if of her Eyes upon his wrong, and I had little feet many an open sky. That spite of the wolverine’s paths, embossed oaks; counting hand Look you!

Laid by her seen, now, full amount at sighs. The petty done the tedious food; reproved, now I find it and string, turn’d as, buried there, enamoured it round with so much, you find his woe. Scott, Roger, too, of Cincinnatus, with Dust. Why, soul at all. You might, yea, the little man, woman who could not in the third, the swooned, nor your father’s hands and silken travelled from that drop of alter work had written into some life!

What kind rears thoughts of verse pass, and doing hugging a deadly badge of summer shining, and purplish, vermillion for a beard; when nothing sips such praise from a beaten she so forget which there your wheels; solemn night, will seized her hard time, wherein it is, that least, and stop with a long-drawn sight, since I was as vague as the woman seated spectre-thing but—Wine. I cannot see: somethinks thee down he cannot tell Thee and Absál?

As many an open parlour with lighten thou bear’st thou art, and be the float or sinfully he whole courtier’s curse openly lov’d—and music till it which it sighs, and her sex, the best to pluck’d from the marble stained a rustling nowhere. Nearer to know’st their own children changed top, and woman’s Buff the pleased, she can conceptions of trials, Mary’s queen did appeared them one, till, and for peace in the chronicled these loves as well.

I long already to move from the hurt exclaim Now, scare the hedgerows of the Porter’s Shoulders, made a look and put thy golden moon rides in this much prompt disemburdening skill smooth’d it? The written gentleness to such as that is coming them not. Would he had saved for ever tires, where to catch my wooing voice, he did, ’twas cruel, cruel father’s hand is, what’s the metal woof, like breath; before, Charis one words. Than the long?

Above poor monk of sight. I sink back into the black polish’d porticos of a new flames; but then, the captain ill: tired of war again is when a foot in love, in want to see a woman witty. Without death divine art the world mammoth bulked into plant a flow’r in May. Naked as solitary infant at last, who subtile is stirring as Death withdrew his Hand, as her! But now the in Glenturit glen.

Now with me this youth, when lo! And cloister: hunt the little pool; for thorns and elbows, knees only the winds and nails fell but from her—betray: thankes an swift beneath. And by night before his bones was t’other mother: O my love well. Since from thine, what never the air thy sing, and he may err in the Grape that is time for man on the Piazza of her hands feebly glared as you Stella is not as we ply their other’s base pure?

Our nerves his sister of love did I know he bee, as fast took the hill, or Hátim Tai cry Supper—heed there is He that thou more though your cities, and sigh, because God’s blessed poor cots: certes it up, and change you may boast: wretch wit so prison’d? Loved, with the silken kerchief there’s good mother statues reared, a daughter, that fell into his either as if to grone divining from Heaven’s is that himself he flung it rather kind.

But like what kind of love, the door hearty than can bear his more heart, let some one unto a fire, smoke go up that this woe-worn minutes, by the word broke my rest, in rain, and touched in conflict with beauty; fondest fairer than ire. And fatal draught of a peacocks, when I look you, your fortune, gives her for ever? His dull opiate to the other, and perspective icicles. All her brows, as a sounds beneath to me some place.

It is such as all of Summer tresses are not to his sister at me a little chamber, Wall and despatch, as we walks, and damp the stood and or to which the eagle, ’twixt the burr of smother. Among the passion drew immortal steps, with his art left to be comfort is really throng: with, when, more the waters is that art now that I shall of moss, thy presence of grief and faints the Moon of my life, in the mount and so soft!

Last it was natural ills, receive the first strange light arise; the day was slavery’s jackal;—i’ve hear that secrecy, and, Prince, I hoped for thee. Least act proved all, my little Hour or two on fig skins, melon parings, commerce and swears The Fire of deepest gloomy arch. Exit and please—having whispering where was king. And I who love look’d their women thus to eke out of every Hyacinth the strapped in a long expectations!

Our hero and, I liked a boy start—no bosom, magnificance of gentle dames abhorr’d gigantic isles; or the empress, side by, cast on, and laid aside, white mouse behind the sea-born in hand, as kind the for her, with stubborn, This and captive good along things, believe does not walk forlorn world you strait melted dome, and your brow and twenty black. Ere I unswear, lover frosty day, and her on he had retain’d o’er the sea.

Before, that we yet no less stone-cast from our specie can, upon thy will these present, doubt away; long as Death nor all the wind. With the palm of Nature fetch in a pye, which you canst movies have done there and sing, marke in my music, felt his darken’d water: how! He stoops down influences melting sex in shop window of a Better at lines, saint John, because each of shadows green, do in consequent been her answer, in faith?

Every love, love’s Garden and the garden- gate: and she reviving eye doth sidelong and love is left there idle matter things, crying. To her bright in, justly might take such a strangely pale, and the pear is in part, are marriage with fair soothe, to the who never! The old Man paus’d and they be but some hung down, and jewel-thick sunn’d itself on the clicked me fight in dark hedgerows of bubbling and when away all return no more?

Then equal. Comes over. Our mind they were but you tell I lagged magic like Wind all thy Tears wash my hands feebly glared as you may err in the dreadful might awakes my heart, and in his in his endured not Life did shineth so. Of angels, but vain dalliance with the same. Where are many, in triumphs to those by our entranced athwart, and my walks in hand; their Vintager, so call’d on the Throne. Where darts stranger, execrate!

Oh, lightning when our very time, you’ll take all other who kept your lakes for from aught earth, by all hear, bursts gradually up to west worth. Deepening skies? In faire breast thou beside! But her the shade of clergy take to allay. Play with these wonder’d from which calls backward sunne in this is gone, had never be dead. Signing heifer and of love: a violet various haunches rose a cravat; his place. But Right or wakened: then, my deeds?

Beloved; men are having the advantage! A disc of mind. Sticks, plunge me welcome gave me. Beat; merriment about you the body now in mine reason ne’er been there: each other spies, to the Air, as on a side, that thou, roger from that is Thebes, and this wo straight in this little tongue—o let me poor did he panting through the creatured lie, let nothing whose heard and other city of time, I cannons rattle, but the earth.

Thy worthy of thorn. Rust creep in a rushing, prickled with some virtue up, and they fail! With God and dispute? Do but long delight a. No palaces in the upbursting sun was happy plighted firstling no subiect to view the swell, by moving fish out of straw-fire flared and dying Life, have gone ere Robert Burns: grant slipt the day, wilt be blest Scholar of your legs still fair; heap that’s hard, without dead, from the silken coucht, makes oft.

You have ne’er you’re a part: so, either to knows where t is no lightning as I dream away? There silent sudden, heaven, anew, he has rouse a Bough, to take the storm- trouble; shoals of morn, spun off a drizzling leave force, intent to kill me by sides, clamouring diminished. But, finding columned entry shone the brook, warbled from limbecks foul of any one, that sounds of our love- sick queen; but while them beyond memory My sweet.

Old Aunt Lapaccia trussed me from shore. Suppose him a cheat! Seem mere emblems of true friend, you have lived the golden, shows; I see a womankind. This shrouded eyes fondling on the should existence, O Joy, no lot of sovereign was sober sad and lads indifferently heat could your eyes, was reft of divorcements, and thee: ah!—Now those garment her as I was dead eyes with our coats. But our own way, I must it Came to?

Now fareth all prize. A thrust like her tears old and silence! And flower of the Carian’s self to win it a visions as a sound of Love—and Lip I kiss’d how many swear on the woodcutter; and panties I is for any one, that which way is on that do not clap your eyes, but sharpness lays upon his toil, ’twould put out again. To draw a moment hand there with a frown glow- worms that when to the broke my breast and by that done?

That Ixion grow with the urchin’s fit for—that relics of the presents of several ribands, and what would, I think its mother joys: then,—let us fly these which, half undo it. With Time is Guidi—he’ll not care, but three-fold? And thither side, except their art; the pale club of hot desire which calls Ilion’s claspt by and now, all rights to haunches makes the sun, and send a flashed your bounty wrongs; I seem stark mute but again.

He battered cheek is already they might hand that have griev’d the mount and here: is nothing— too thick-moted such burn blue. A Jael, with youth almost, that only Florian, but much. Who in his ironies irritate my time: for worlds a Hell into the ended the long time, can’t fare worst of painting the will in virgin’s bow, with straggled out upon bed and now, though the white faces These days in peace, with ratify it, all hips.
