Today's song of the day is "Sun City" from Artists Against Apartheid. Most people forget this ever happened, but it has stuck in my head since childhood. These days, we need more of this kind of political protest music movement. Unlike the African famine charity songs of the 80s, this was actually targeted, effective, and meaningful.

Also, damn. Look at that lineup. Legends of rock, early hip hop, and R&B standing together.

--

From the description:

"In 1985, Steven Van Zandt, along with Arthur Baker, Hart Perry, and Danny Schechter, formed Artists United Against Apartheid and Van Zandt would write “Sun City,” an anthemic Rock/Hip Hop/R&B song protesting the Apartheid system symbolized by the South African resort, Sun City. Over 50 artists including Gil Scott-Heron, Ringo Starr, Bob Dylan, Bruce Springsteen, Bono, Grandmaster Melle Mel, George Clinton, Run DMC, Jimmy Cliff, Ruben Blades, Pat Benatar, Herbie Hancock, Lou Reed, Joey Ramone, Peter Gabriel, Bob Geldof, Clarence Clemons, David Ruffin, Eddie Kendricks, Darlene Love, Bobby Womack, Afrika Bambaataa, Kurtis Blow, The Fat Boys, Jackson Browne, Peter Wolf, Bonnie Raitt, Hall & Oates, Big Youth, Michael Monroe, Stiv Bators, Peter Garrett, Ron Carter, Ray Barretto, Nona Hendryx, and Miles Davis, performed on the track which spawned a conscious raising album of the same name. As one of the first collaborations among major recording stars to support a political, rather than a social cause, it is considered by most political experts to be one of the fatal blows to Apartheid, leading to Nelson Mandela being freed only a few years later."

28 feb. friday

wore my white.

left late from home at 8:30. boss isn't coming to office today.

there's wasn't any 333 or 410. got an auto rather instantly instead of preferring to wait. got a 312 at around 9 at marol depot. reached office at around 10:15 or 20.

asked a coworker if he'd like to get a coffee. we both went to the coffee machine. i saw her, slightly. she wore a black kurti. she and kurtis are a pair

boss has bought a new coffee but didn't keep the bottle outside near our desks lol. so the coworker went in and got that bottle. coffee is stronger than the machine's.

sunny had booked a cabin on the second floor, so i went there to work. very uncomfortable seating.

sometime later, a coworker called me to check something. i went down, and saw her seated on the couch again.

i left right after discussing.

lunch time. i got my tiffin from below. the whole convo today was on nepal and momos. i had no idea what they were speaking. i used pinterest, and then zoned out. idk what was happening. looking out of the window somehow reminded me of the sea, the ocean.

i have never really liked the ocean, the waves always feel unsettling. there's an eerie feeling that haunts me whenever i think about the sea, but i always have a calling. i imagine a sunny day, beside the beach. a windy summer. there are coconut and palm trees, i have a small well-decorated two-storied house. i sit on my window and let the salty breeze kiss me through the curtains. the sea water glistens as i look at it. i have a roof-less jeep from which i go to a cliff made of red stones and soil. a vast body of water, stares back at me as i admire it. idk, these memories date back when i was single-digit in age. i had this dream back then. it still stays in me vividly. i wonder why, but somehow looking outside reminded me of this dream. yes i was looking at palladium, but there's a certain intensity of the sun, that triggers this unknown feeling in me. it's when the sun is bright and nearly at its peak, but doesn't burn the skin. it's hard to describe the intensity though.

i saw her at lunch very later, when i was leaving. she proly came late today. she sat on the corner of the high desk. i left.

i went out and sat on the couch after coming down. my laptop was still in the cabin on the second floor. i was lowkey worried about my diary though. sunny has scribbled her name all over the pages. it's concerning if someone finds it. lol, idc for myself. i very openly express that i find her amazing. even if she, herself, would come and ask me ever, i would openly state it. but the diary would definitely raise questions haha. i tried to do some work from my mobile itself, but it's difficult. i was actually waiting for sunny. he was off for a meeting in our cabin.

i saw her come down from lunch. and then she came out with her laptop and entered mario. i was on calls with our company ca, and also listening to songs.

she later came out and sat on the couch that was placed perpendicular to mine. there sat a woman in between us, but i could very well see her. there was another small chapter of me trying to look at her without coming out as obvious to others.

i wonder why do i think about her sm. am i slowly basing my existence upon her? i don't think so. it's just that i have always felt this intensely, but never to this extent. there's sm about her that i want to know, but only if she felt the same about me :(

but i am certain about one thing - i'd have never started logging if it wasn't for her. my logs are more about how i feel about her than about myself.

sunny passed from beside me and then called me, lol. says that he was polite and couldn't give it to her that i was sitting to look at her. haha what gentleman-ly manners. i agree i sat there to see her, but she coming out to sit is pure coincidence sir. what could i have done?

she got up, left, and came out again for a call. walked while speaking. she's so pretty ｡⁠◕⁠‿⁠◕⁠｡ she spoke for a while and then left.

by this time, i was struggling to sit on the couch. it was making me very uncomfortable. i was adjusting my clothes. changing my feet's positions, changing songs. it was difficult. i was feeling tired. there were a lot of people around me. it felt as if they all were looking at me. i felt exhausted just by being in the area. i couldn't take the environment's vibes in me. it felt as if i was trying to be someone i am not. i still sat for some more ten minutes after her leaving, and then left because she didn't come back.

i went up. sunny asked me to go down again. even i wanted to sit down as well, but couldn't adjust to the environment. very rarely do i get to sit out anyway, whenever boss is absent. so i went down again, but with my diary this time. it's very difficult to work only on mobile. i went down, and she was sitting on the couch i was sitting at. the place where i sat at before was empty, and how much ever deeply i felt to go and occupy that seat, i knew i couldn't. so i sat a bit away. this time, one of her friends was sitting in front of me. it felt all the time that he was laughing at me, ofc he wouldn't have been, but i am a great victim of the spotlight effect. idk, it felt very exhausting to pretend that i was working. i could barely work at that time no matter how hard i was trying to focus. i got up when i couldn't take it any longer. it felt meaningless to put up and act. i went up again to work.

sunny went down and dialled me later. i don't remember the details, but there were too many to and fros from the first floor and the second floor by now. sunny was mad at two coworkers because they had been to have tea without him. we all, except the two, went to have soda. i saw her on the couch again while i was leaving. she was sitting on the one near arena this time.

the roads are so dusty, i have started to hate this city now. adminstration pretends to care, but barely does. soda spilled over my hands this time as well. soda tastes good. the way the vendor opens and pops the cap of the bottle is a delight to watch.

we went up to the hub again. she was still sitting at the same place. i went to the washroom to wash my hands. after returning, and while sunny and me were going back to the second floor, he randomly started talking to the hub management team. now i was in a situation, i couldn't leave because it'd have been strange to buzz off from the middle of the conversation. i stood there. and umm, i could see her from here, so i continued standing. she got up and left into her cabin, as she walked from beside me. is she taller?

sunny just kept talking and i was faking smiles. relief was the little plant on the hub desk. i kept playing with its leaves all the time. yea, a good thing about the hub is that there are plants placed everywhere. i often touch the leaves.

we went up when he was done speaking. worked.

a quote on the second floor. i took the picture and left to have snacks in the canteen.

be present, not perfect. ok. i'll keep this in mind.

i took my laptop and went to my desk. sunny had booked mario now, from 6 till 8.

i felt someone was already inside, but lights were off, so i was unsure. i somehow had the feeling that it was her.

i reached the door, bent over, and there was she. i was about to knock the door, but i had my bottle in my left and my laptop in my right. this made it difficult, so i rather grabbed the door handle through my left index and slid the door slightly. i said "i'm sorry, we had a booking here." she got up, whispered "sure." i replied "thank you." right next, when i was about to ask her name - "btw what's your name?", she hovered past me. phish! if only, if only, she'd have been there a moment longer. it was on the tip of my tongue.

later, i saw her go in arena.

right after she had left, i just went in, and sat with my palms over my face. i was absolutely down, and frustrated. the last time i actually actually got to interact with her in such a natural situation was in early december near the water dispenser. it's three months now since i got this next opportunity, and it couldn't be any good. feels absolutely pathetic. what am i going to do next? i was already tired of the day, trying to sit outside, and trying to be out of my shell, and now this.

i don't think any next opportunity would come up any soon, and i really don't have any sense or energy to capitalise on it. it's not her fault, not mine, not anyone's at all. circumstances simply didn't play out well. i don't think if any opportunity, if any does arise, i would be able to speak anything anyway now that ik that she's least interested.

what i hated the most was the symbolism playing in my head - me in white, she in black, just like chess pieces, we could never be together on the same tile ever.

now, i don't think at all if whether she likes me. this has to be clear, crystal clear. but whenever i see her around me, my mind simply starts assuming patterns. also, thinking that she'd come and talk to me is out of question as well. it's like waiting for something that's never going to happen. what are the chances of her liking me? zero. and what are the chances of her liking me that she'd make an effort? anything lesser than zero.

i find it hard to drill down facts in my mind.

sunny came in and started working. i went out later and got my vitamin tablet, and my eye drop. my eyes were paining. i hadn't used the eye drop today as i was in the meeting room.

she proly left around 7:30.

sometime later, sunny came back, but with my bag packed. he asked me to shut my work as we all were going out to have food. the senior coworker didn't join, so we were the usual four again.

picture right before leaving.

we went to lalta at ghatkopar, but the new one this time. we were going to the old one, but a coworker saw the newly opened outlet otw.

i barely had the energy to smile all the time while eating. i was absolutely down and drained.

when we were done, i was about to walk down to ghatkopar station. but the coworker insisted me that he'd drop me. tysm. i got a metro, then got down at chakala. walked till nelco. left a 333 because of it being crowded, got an empty 410 right after.

mother didn't believe i ate outside, because i was home early at 10:30.

today was essentially the first time i said anything audible to her and it started with a "sorry" and ended with a "thank you." yea, and why not - these are the only two words that anyway define my character anyway. saying a sorry if i cause any inconvenience, and saying a "thank you" when the other being understands. pathetic.

i always used to think that overthinking is a curse - nah, but it does help me at times with my work. it's the combo of feeling intensely and overthinking that ruins me at times. that's the reason i turn over to music, to silence my thoughts. idk, i am thinking too much into it rn. my mind is not at peace, and my thoughts aren't letting me sleep. maybe my feelings amplify when i decide to write about them.

god, but i wish sm that she liked me as well. if and only if she did.

A-T-5 010 DJ Cheese

Word Of Mouth featuring DJ Cheese - King Kut

Dj Cheese (Robert Cheese) won the inaugural DMC World DJ Championship in London in 1986. 'An unhappy runner-up, Holland's Orlando Voorn grabbed the mic from the events MC and founder Tony Prince and bellowed the immortal word's "What is this, a Mixing Competition or a Scratching Competition?"' It was DMC's 2nd DJ convention. Dj Cheese introducing scratching put DMC on the trajectory of becoming the oscars of turntablism

DMC's Tony Price first met DJ Cheese at the 1984 New Music Seminar in New York. At the seminal DJ Cheese had won the DJ Battle for World Supremacy. He grew up in New Jersey so this made him the first non-NYC DJ to win the title

DJ Cheese also caught the attention of Ed Fletcher aka Duke Bootee. Duke Bootee, who at the time was a session musician for Sugarhill Records, made a demo in his basement which would be released as "The Message" in 1982. Duke Bootee wanted to release the track himself but Sylvia Robinson had other ideas. Anyway that's another story. Duke Bootee set up his own label Beauty And The Beat. DJ Cheese is the DJ on the first and third releases on this label (I have no idea what the second release BAB 102 is. Word Of Mouth's "Coast To Coast" single?)

BAB 101 is "King Tut" by Word Of Mouth featuring DJ Cheese. This was picked up by Profile Records

BAB 103 is "Triple Threat" by Z-3 MC's which doesn't credit DJ Cheese but that's him on there

Both are classics produced by Duke Bootee and edited by the Latin Rascals

Z-3 MC's - Triple Threat

Following the success of Band Aid's "Do They Know It's Christmas?" Steve Van Zandt and Arthur Baker put together a similar styled group to protest South-African apartheid. Duke Bootee and DJ Cheese were both involved. DJ Cheese's turntable skills are prominent on all versions of the track "Let Me See Your I.D." Also involved in the project were Duke Bootee's fellow Sugarhill Band musicians Doug Wimbish, Bernard Alexander, and Keith LeBlanc. These three had already begun working with Adrian Sherwood on their Fat's Comet/Tackhead/Maffia projects. Fat's Comet/Tackhead sessions with DJ Cheese would be released in 1986

According to a post on Discogs ""Let me see your ID" features: Afrika Bambaataa, Melle Mel, Gil Scott-Heron, DJ Cheese, Duke Bootee,  Kurtis Blow, Scorpio (Furious 5), Fat Boys (Rap & Beatbox), Tina B, Jimmy Cliff, Malopoets, Sonny Okosuns, Ray Barretto, Peter Garrett, Miles Davis, Ben Newberry, Annie Brody Dutka, Richard Scher, Doug Wimbish, Keith Leblanc and of course Steve van Zandt aka Little Steven. Mixing engineers: Arthur Baker, Chris Lord-Alge, Aldo Marin & Jay Burnett. Editing by Aldo Marin, Keith Leblanc & Albert Cabrera (Latin Rascals)"

Tomb Raider Reloaded Blasts Onto Mobile This Month

CDE Entertainment and Emerald City Games have finally revealed the release date of the anticipated free-to-play roguelike arcade adventure Tomb Raider Reloaded, which falls exactly on Lara Croft’s birthday, February 14th! The game will make its way to Apple and Android mobile devices, as well as Netflix’s own games service, in which subscribers will be able to play without any ads or in-app purchases.

Alongside the announcement, the team shared a brand new trailer featuring our beloved heroine in cinematic action sequences and snippets of gameplay footage.

Tomb Raider Reloaded takes players on an action-filled adventure as they jump into the boots of groundbreaking hero Lara Croft on her swan-diving, cliff-climbing, back-flipping quest to obtain the ancient Scion artefact, clearing ever-changing rooms filled with new and familiar enemies as well as hazardous traps and puzzles. Along the way, they’ll acquire run-specific boosts alongside permanent rewards, like XP modifiers, runes that improve Lara’s stats, and manuals used to unlock and upgrade her outfits, such as her fan-favorite bomber jacket. 

As players progress through each level, they can stack perks to enhance Lara’s abilities, and even craft weapons to upgrade her arsenal.

As a love-letter to the franchise, the game is set to delight old and new fans of the saga as it features iconic Tomb Raider locations, namely the City of Vilcabamba, the Lost Valley, and St. Francis’ Folly; memorable characters, from the likes of Winston, Kurtis Trent, Anaya Imanu, and Werner Von Croy; along with artefacts, outfits, and more.

Also making a return is the lovely Keeley Hawes, the British actress that lent her voice to our adventurer in the LAU trilogy and the two spin-offs—Guardian of Light and Temple of Osiris. If that wasn’t enough, it was revealed back in the 25th anniversary celebrations that the legendary voice actresses Shelley Blond (Tomb Raider), Judith Gibbins (Tomb Raider II, Tomb Raider III), and Jonell Elliott (The Last Revelation, Chronicles, The Angel of Darkness), will be reprising their roles as Lara and players would be able to chose their favourite between them all.

This connection to the series’ long-lasting legacy is reinforced by the game’s soundtrack, which includes orchestral recordings of classic Tomb Raider themes, spearheaded by musician Tina Guo—who made her solo debut in Peter Connelly’s The Dark Angel Symphony album.

Tomb Raider Reloaded will be available worldwide on the Apple App Store, Google Play Store, and Netflix Games Service on February 14th. For a limited time after launch, all players will receive an exclusive golden version of Lara’s iconic dual pistols, like the ones you can see above.

NHL Expansion Draft 2021: Full list of players available for Seattle Kraken

The NHL announced the protected lists for the 30 teams involved in the NHL Expansion Draft. (Vegas is exempt.) With the names of those protected come the guys who could be snatched up by the Seattle Kraken. There are a number of big names that have everyone trying to figure out just what general manager Ron Francis will do. Will he take Canadiens netminder, and future Hall of Famer, Carey Price and his hefty cap hit? Is Vladimir Tarasenko the sniper he needs or is his health a big question mark? There's also a number of guys who would fit in nicely but are free agents and the chances of signing them are not high (i.e. Alex Ovechkin).  EXPANSION DRAFT: Date, time, rules & more for Seattle Kraken team selectionRegardless of what Francis, coach Dave Hakstrol and Co. end up doing, there's a good chance the Kraken will be a playoff contender in just their first season. For now, let the intrigue and the guessing WWRFD (that's: what will Ron Francis do?) begin.

Prog 2152 

Rollicking adventure on all fronts this week with our current lineup revving along nicely with all our protagonists in genuine peril!

Red-hot cover art from veteran ace droid, Cliff Robinson.

Handle this Prog with care, Earthlets serious Thrillpower™️ inside...!

JUDGE DREDD // GUATEMALA 
Mega-City One, 2141 AD. Home to over 130 million citizens, this urban hell is situated along the east coast of post-apocalyptic North America. Crime is rampant, and only the Judges — empowered to dispense instant justice — can stop total anarchy. Toughest of them all is JUDGE DREDD — he is the Law! Now, he’s travelled to the rogue nation of Guatemala, site of a robot coup, to investigate its nuclear capabilities… John Wagner (w). Colin MacNeil (a).
 Judge Dredd created by John Wagner & Carlos Ezquerra 

DEFOE // THE DIVISOR 
London, 1668. It is two years since the city was devastated by the Great Fire. From the ashes rose the undead, hungry for the flesh of the living. Protecting the populace are zombie hunters like Titus DEFOE, a former Leveller, who now makes it his mission to rid the capital of the ghouls. Now, following the disaster of the moon-bound rocketship the Isaac Newton, he’s investigating what’s behind targeted zombie attacks… Pat Mills (w). Stewart Moore (a). Defoe created by Pat Mills & Leigh Gallagher

BRINK // HATE BOX The late 21st century, and through environmental catastrophe and industrial overload Earth has been reduced to a wasteland. Mankind finally evacuated the planet in 2072 and millions were housed in a number of deep-space Habitats. But life on these cramped, overcrowded stations is tense, with many spilling over into madness. Now, HSD cop Bridget Kurtis has been made head of Major Case Division on Salma Habitat…
 Brink created by Dan Abnett & INJ Culbard

HOPE // …UNDER FIRE 
An alternate 1940s USA. WWII is over, victory having been secured by occult means. Now, magic is a part of everyday life, its practitioners commonplace. Mallory HOPE is one such skilled operative, though calling on the dark arts takes its toll on the user. He’s also a private investigator, hired for all manner of down n’ dirty jobs, and now his services have taken him to New York at the behest of an old army colleague…
 Hope created by Guy Adams & Jimmy Broxton 

THE FALL OF DEADWORLD // DOOMED The planet that eventually became known as DEADWORLD was once a regular civilisation existing in a dimension parallel to our own. But the end of days is coming, and creatures known as the Dark Judges are spreading their contagion, exterminating all life. While the survivors attempt to resist the undead horde, the neighbouring Soviets have seen the chaos as an ideal time to launch an attack on their enemies…
 The Fall of Deadworld created by Kek-W & Dave Kendall

“In former times, countless eons ago, when I took the form of a woman, the Blessed One, the Tathāgata, the Arhat, the complete and perfect Buddha named Dṛḍhaśūraraṇasenapraharaṇarāja19 came to the world. He placed his golden hand on my head and said: ‘Noble daughter, take this dhāraṇī, the essence of the Secret Mantra, and memorize it! If you do, in the future, you shall become renowned as Vajraṇakhī. In this form you will bring great benefit and happiness to all sentient beings. This dhāraṇī will grant you the power of the vidyādharas, allegiance and siddhis. Vidyādharas who encounter this dhāraṇī have formerly made offerings to countless buddhas and nurtured the roots of virtue extensively. Thus they meet a spiritual friend according to their aspirations. Once they memorize and recite this dhāraṇī, they rise victorious over the three worlds. It will not be long before they take miraculous birth within a lotus in the realm of the buddhafield Sukhāvatī. Vidyādharas, recite this dhāraṇī three times during the day and three times at night. Thus all sentient beings will be fulfilled and act conscientiously in all actions. Have faith in me and your spiritual friends.’”

 དེ་ནས་བཅོམ་ལྡན་འདས་ཀྱིས་རྡོ་རྗེ་མཁའ་འགྲོ་མ་ལ་བསྟོད་པ།

dené chomdendé kyi dorjé khandroma la töpa

The Blessed One then commended the Vajraḍākinī:

དཔལ་དང་ལྡན་པའི་རྡོ་རྗེ་སྡེར་མོ་ཁྱོད། །

“Awesome Vajraṇakhī, Vajra Claw,

In your wrathful form, you revel in infinite bliss,

Glorious ḍākinī in all your splendour: homage to you!”

 དེ་ནས་མཁའ་འགྲོ་མ་དེས་གཟུངས་འདིའི་དམ་ཚིག་གསུངས་པ།

dené khandroma dé zung di damtsik sungpa

The ḍākinī then pronounced the samayas for this dhāraṇī:

སློབ་དཔོན་སྤྱི་བོར་འཁུར་ཞིང་དབང་དང་དམ་ཚིག་བསྲུང་། །

lobpön chiwor khur shying wang dang damtsik sung

“Respect your master and guard your empowerments and samayas.

མན་ངག་ཀུན་ལ་མི་སྤེལ་དགོན་པར་གསངས་ལ་སྒྲུབ། །

Do not disseminate the pith instructions, but accomplish them secretly in solitude.

Resolve through the view, practise meditation, and be faithful.

སྤྱོད་པ་མ་དོར་དམ་ཚིག་ལྡན་ན་དངོས་གྲུབ་ཐོབ། །

By maintaining the samayas, without rejecting the secret conduct, you will receive the siddhis.

Follow the oral instructions without prioritizing the pleasures of this life.

 དེ་ནས་བཅོམ་ལྡན་འདས་ཀྱིས་རྡོ་རྗེ་མཁའ་འགྲོ་མ་དེ་ལ་ལེགས་སོ་ཞེས་བྱ་བ་བྱིན་ཏེ།

dené chomdendé kyi dorjé khandroma dé la lek so shyejawa jin té

Thereupon the Blessed One approved the words of the Vajraḍākinī:

ལེགས་སོ་ལེགས་སོ། །རིག་བ་འཛིན་པ་རྣམས་དེ་བཞིན་དུ་དད་པར་གྱིས་ཤིག །

lek so lek so rikwa dzinpa nam deshyindu depar gyi shik

“Excellent, excellent indeed! Vidyādharas, you should faithfully apply yourself!”

When the Blessed One had said this, the great gathering of monks, glorious Vajraṇakhī and the great gathering of vidyādharas together with the whole assembly of gods, humans, yakṣas, rākṣasas, gandharvas, asuras, garuḍas, kinnaras, mahoragas—all human beings and spirits—rejoiced and praised the speech of the Blessed One.

དཔལ་རྡོ་རྗེ་སྡེར་མོ་ཞེས་བྱ་བའི་གཟུངས་རྫོགས་སོ།། །།

Thus concludes the Dhāraṇī of Glorious Vajraṇakhī.

མངྒ་ལཾ།།

Maṅgalaṃ!

 | Translated by Stefan Mang, 2019. Many thanks to Wiesiek Mical for checking the Sanskrit mantra.

↑ The relation between the Sanskrit and the Tibetan title is unclear. The Sanskrit title suggests that the name of the goddess is Vajraratī. The Tibetan name of the goddess, Dorjé Dermo (rdo rje sder mo), could be reconstructed in Sanskrit as *Vajraṇakhī, but not as Vajraratī. It is possible that *Vajraṇakhī is a form of Vajraratī. Vajraratī is a goddess which figures in a number of highest yoga tantras (niruttara-yoga tantra, rnal ‘byor bla na med pa’i rgyud). She is the consort of Amoghasiddhi and one of the five Ratīs (the other four being Dveṣaratī, Moharatī, Rāgaratī, and Īrṣyāratī).

↑ The Tibetan literally states Vajra House (rdo rje’i zom gyi khang pa). This most likely refers to an indestructible palace made of vajra. (Oral clarification by Lama Öpak.)

↑ The four activities (spyod lam rnam pa bzhi) are walking, moving about, sitting and lying down.

↑ ‘Si spirits’ (sri) are a particular type of evil spirits.

↑ In the Mahāyāna tradition these are the five dhāraṇī goddesses collectively known as the Pañcarakṣā, or the “Five Protectresses.” In the Tibetan tradition their dhāraṇīs are collectively known as The Five Great Dhāraṇīs (gzungs chen grwa lnga).

↑ Evil here and throughout this translation renders the Sanskrit word “graha” (“gdon” in Tibetan) into English. Grahas are understood to be both evil spirits and evil influences that are contained within or connected with a particular spirit or deity. They are also closely associated with the planets and other astronomical bodies. Grahas can inflict great harm on the human body and mind. The following list of various demons (graha, gdon) closely resembles one in the dhāraṇī literature dedicated to the deity Sitātapatrā (Tōh. 590-593). For more information on graphas, see: Gail Hinich Sutherland, The Disguises of the Demon: The Development of the Yakṣa in Hinduism and Buddhism, (Albany: State University of New York Press, 1992), 166–167.

↑ In this text the demon is called ‘going everywhere’ (kun tu ‘gro ba). In the list of demons of given in the dhāraṇī literature dedicated to the deity Sitātapatrā it is called ‘following everywhere’ (kun tu ‘breng ba). Pandey’s Sanskrit edition calls the demon śamikā. See: Ngawang Samten and Janardan Pandey, In Dhih Journal, vol. 33, (Sarnath: Central Institute of Higher Tibetan Studies 2002): 145-154.

↑ The following list of demons named after the sustenance they consume again resembles one found in Tōh. 592 and other ḍhāraṇīs.

↑ Zors (zor) are substances or objects that, through ritual and mantra recitation, are charged with magical powers. In most cases these zors are small pyramids made of dough. These are placed around the main torma (gtor ma) and through the ritual charged with magical power. By throwing the zors the magical power is released and directed at an enemy. In this case, the practitioner invokes Vajraṇakhī in order to stop the misuse of zors, magic rituals, substances and objects etc. For more information on zor, see: René de Nebesky-Wojkowitz, Oracles and Demons of Tibet, (Kathmandu, Nepal: Book Faith India, 1996), 354-358.

↑ A tsé zor (mtshe zor) resemble leaves made of dough. Thorns are inserted into the tips of the leaves. A mustard seed zor (nyung zor) is small dough pyramid bearing a mustard seed on top.

↑ In this case the zor made of dough resembles an arrow.

↑ A cup zor is a cup that is filled with butter or other substances.

↑ This term refers to the ritual casting away of iron filings (lcags phye), stone powder (rdo phye), or mustard seeds (yungs dkar).

↑ These are zors inscribed with either Buddhist or non-Buddhist mantras.

↑ In this case real arrows are shot at an effigy or in the direction of an enemy or obstacles.

↑ The Tibetan term gzhogs phyed, here translated as ‘partially’ appears to be a translation of the Sanskrit word avabhedaka which seems to reference to hemiplegia.

↑ While the Tibetan text here reads klad, ‘brain’, following the Sitātapatrā dhāraṇī (Tōh. 591), the term is more likely gnad, ‘joints’.

↑ The ten reasons for liberation (bsgral ba'i zhing bcu) refer to the ten evil deeds which, when all enacted by a single enemy, make that enemy suitable for liberation. According to the Nyingma School these are: 1) a general enemy of the Three Jewels (dkon mchog spyi dgra), 2) the personal enemy of the vajra-master (rdo rje slob dpon gyi sgos dgra), 3) a samaya corruptor (dam nyams pa), 4) one who has contravened samaya (dam las log pa); 5) one who has shared secret samayas with those who are improper vessels for the path of secret mantra (dam la 'khus pa ste gsang ba snod ngan la spel ba), 6) one who arrives at a congregation of practitioners and berates them (sgrub pa'i 'du bar 'ong nas gshe ba), 7) one who, like the chief of a band of armed robbers, harms everyone (yongs la gnod pa'i jag dpon lta bu), 8) one called ‘hostile to samaya’ – who is the sort who needs to be exorcised (dam dgra zhes bya ba ste bzlog pa mkhan lta bu); 9) one whose style of negative conduct is non-virtuous through-and-through (mi dge ba kho na longs spyod pa ngan pa'i ngang tshul can) and 10) beings of the three lower realms (ngan song gsum).

↑ Lit. the king who has an army and weapons and is heroic and steadfast in battle.

[rathwald]

1.1 Our Dawn

(A short beginning in which Jeofford pushes Nevres off to complete the task Breerdon was reluctant to undertake-- reuniting with old family and friends.)

Of all the people for her to look to for advice, her uncle from the Kirin Tor was her last choice. Unfortunately it reached that point.

The letter Jeofford Rathwald sent was the only contact she had with another friend person for several days. Other than that letter, she had her rogue-- something useful any aspiring noble should have. It would be completely false for her to deny that she was not at least excited to have some sort of purpose again. When it came to Jeofford, however, she remained skeptical of his plan, but what else was she to do if not just continue wallowing?

A rhythmic motion of her hands began to fix her hair, taking the long red strands and molding them into braids that framed her rosey face. In full armor, golden, clean, and bright, she was finally starting to look the role of a paladin as her uncle Breerdon would have wanted. Equipping the hammer at her side and shield upon her back, she held her chin high as she left for another encounter with the most difficult endeavor she faced: accepting and moving on from the loss of a loved one.

Stormwind lived on as usual; the walk to the Lion’s Rest had all the familiar faces. Children were fishing on the side of the canal as a man passed by selling freshly baked bread. She felt her mouth attempt to crack a smile as she passed by a young girl running along with a puppy. How long was it since Nevres last smiled? Perhaps she forgot how to— maybe this is why Duard never smiled, either. It was a simple gesture that meant so much, yet Nevres felt as fake as the beer at the inn when she tried grin.

Lion’s Rest— and there he was. Jeofford Rathwald stood with the posture of royalty with purple robes to match. At his side, his hand held an intricate staff topped with the visage of a sheep. A quite benign appearance: this is what the infamous Mage of the Rathwalds looked like, now. “Nevres,” he remarked, looking down upon her.

“Yes, uncle.” Nevres bowed her head.

Jeofford's free hand raised into the air and within it a bright purple light began to sparkle and crash in aggressive motions. Smoke started to rise as his magic completed; he lowered his arm and held out to Nevres what he had conjured.

“Uncle, I’m not a child anymore,” she let out a soft chuckle when she saw it was a gingerbread woman in a colorful dress complete with buttons and a smile. “Uncle Breer always was upset that you spoiled me every time we met.” 

Jeofford’s frown curved into a warm smile. “I always felt the need to make up for the times I was absent in your life.” He leaned forward and gave his niece a hug. As he pulled away to return to his strict Archmage demeanor, he took a better look at her. She was right-- although her stature remained small, she was slowly becoming the paladin she always dreamed she could be.

“I’ll take it if you don’t want it.”

A familiar voice beamed from around the corner, followed by a jovial blond warrior who gave the pair a single wave of his hand-- Kurtis Radesbury, the boy from Stromgarde who grew up as an Alliance soldier. Blue cape flowing behind him as he walked and his armor and greatsword equipped, he looked prepared for adventure as much as Nevres.  Kurtis took his place next to them, towering over the two. “Was a bit of a short notice, but I did get your letter.” Kurtis raised his hand and between his fingers was a similar parchment that Jeofford had sent Nevres. A gust of wind blew the paper from his grip and to the cliffs and sea.  “Um, shit.” Jeofford quickly dissolved the cookie in his hand, much to the warrior’s dismay. The gingerbread woman turned into smoke, and what remained was dust and crumbs that he shook off of his hand. The mage turned his attention back to his niece. “Nevres. I took it upon myself to summon your allies in Stormwind--” “Friends, not just allies.” Kurtis corrected. “--Although the other is missing...” Jeofford tilted his head around to check the other entrances to the park. Mourners of the war and admirers of the scenery were present, but not the one he was looking for. 

Nevres shrugged and rested her hands on her hips. “Don’t worry about the rogue, if that’s who you’re waiting for.” She sighed. “Duard just appears when he wants to. It’s probably the nature of his type-- same as Archmages.”

Jeofford’s eyes rolled to the side and his mouth tightened. “Quite the shame. Sending you around the kingdoms without Breerdon or his priest is very worrying... A few extra hands would help protect you--” “It’s not like you’re sending us to the front lines anyways... are you?” Nevres head tilted to the side in curiosity, causing some of her red bangs to fall over her face.

“Ha.” Kurtis forced out a sarcastic laugh. “Would it be that awful if he did? Stromgarde could use all the help it can get-- goddamned Horde.”

Jeofford shook his finger, “I have no doubt that the Alliance would benefit with your aid, but if you had the might the house once had behind you-- imagine the help you can provide, then. Breerdon taught you strength in yourself, Martrey taught you strength in the Light. Perhaps I’ll be the one to teach you strength in your allies.” He lifted his staff and rotated the head several times. A small portal began to form and fully bloomed once Jeofford returned his staff to its standing position. “A good start would be to meet with Breerdon’s old comrades.” The forest within the portal looked somewhat familiar, with clean skies and white bricked buildings. Nevres’s eyes suddenly lit up with excitement as she could hold back her enthusiasm. "Hearthglen.”
