I dare say that perusing a magnum opus is akin to beholding a commendable intellect. Yet, when one delves into the life of a sentient being, it is as though one's soul is elevated to the heavens. This must mirror the process undertaken by Naguib Mahfouz, the illustrious Egyptian author who conjured life within his own celestial garden, with the Cairo Trilogy as his botanical masterpiece. Presently, I am engrossed in the first volume, "Palace Walk." As a Bengali, I am intimately acquainted with "Pather Panchali," a dynamic magnum opus crafted by Bibhutibhushan Bandopadhyay. This work persistently lingered in my thoughts as I commenced reading Mahfouz's "Palace Walk." I endeavoured to recall the myriad memories associated with our journey through "Pather Panchali." Rather than noting mere resemblances, I prefer to underscore the shared themes of livelihood, familial bonds, and communal relationships. Despite a particular family's struggles within the confines of their specific religious society, which adheres rigidly to its doctrinal norms, the inexorable march of life continues. Nevertheless, individuals must discern their true desires as a family, their intrinsic needs, and what they genuinely seek from their community, which has become an ornament of grievances. They find themselves unable to discard it, yet bereft of it, they are left with naught.

Set and Horus after millennia realizing that they have feelings for each other. Set being disgusted and embarrassed of himself because that is the man who stole the throne from him. Who embarrassed and degraded him in front of the rest of the Deities. Yet, thinking about how Horus tasted keeps him up at night, and only the fact that he is trying to hold onto any sliver of pride is why he hasn’t said or done anything about it yet.
Horus remembering how Set sounded over him when he was pretending to be asleep. Remembering the way his moans sounded and how hot his body felt against his. He can’t even look at him now because it’s all he hears each time he speaks.
The rest of the Egyptian Gods and Goddesses being annoyed because it’s been obvious and they thought this was some kind of prolonged angry flirting.

Chapter 19
The search for Yara's mother begins....
Smoke swirled along the gold inlaid floor, climbing curling and climbing the marbled walls, and seeming to creep ever closer to the couple at the center of the room. Lighting flashed through massive windows across a deep indigo sky, lighting everything up before plunging it into an almost inky blackness. There was a thrum that could be felt, making the room feel alive around them as they waited to be greeted.
“Who has entered Vahala, the realm of Odin, the Almighty Allfather? State your name and reason for your visit, or you shall meet your DOOM!!!” A loud voice demanded. It was deep and echoed off of all the walls around them making Yara’s ears ring, and she could feel the vibration of it within all of her being. Her hand entwined with Astaroth’s tightened and her other one gripped his elbow as she pressed against him. Whoever it was sounded angry, and she was not prepared, nor dressed, for a fight. Astaroth seemed relaxed, and she hoped that meant that whoever it was could still die by his powers. “Oh for fuck’s sake Mordgud, Odin’s expecting us. You know damn well who it is, too. I swear if you loose Garm, and he ruins another pair of my shoes, I'm going to be seriously pissed.” Astaroth rolled his eyes and the sarcasm was thick in his voice, before he looked over at Yara with an annoyed but apologetic look. The look of confusion and fear on her face just made him sigh. Leave it to Mordgud to start things off on the wrong foot. “I’ll explain later,” he mouthed over to her.
“You know, Astaroth, you take all the fun out of things. Do you know how long it is between visitors up here?” The goddess stepped into view, the smoke that had filled the marble and gold room dissipating as she did. “Don’t worry, after Odin’s response last time Garm greeted you, I wasn’t about to let him loose this time.” The beautiful goddess, with her inky black curls that seemed to reflect a deep blue in the light, tipped her head and grinned. “And who do we have here?” Mordgud leaned closer as she regarded Yara, her eyes studying the beauty next to Astaroth. From the way the female was clinging to Death, she had to be someone special. Normally Astaroth was reticent to let anyone touch him, let alone almost climb upon him. That she hadn’t dropped dead yet meant Astaroth liked it, interesting indeed.
“This, Mordgud, is my wife, Yara. Yara, the goddess Mordgud, guardian of the bridge to Hel and Valhalla.” Astaroth made the introductions. Seeing the surprised look on Mordgud’s face, he grinned more. “I take it the news of the wedding hasn’t made it up here yet?” There was a bit of a smug smirk as he asked the question. This meant that when they showed up in other places, the surprise would also be the same. Perfect.
“Not at all! I will have to speak to father about this. Welcome to Valhalla, Yara. I apologize for scaring you, I did not realize that Astaroth would not have warned his guest that he is well known here.” Mordgud bowed to the couple. “Now, please, follow me, I’ll guide you to mother and father.” The goddess smiled brightly before turning to lead them from the room and down a bright hallway. Oh there were going to be some broken hearts in the whole of the underworld when this news got out, and she couldn’t wait to be the one who spread it. Such news was hard to come by anymore. She couldn’t wait to tell Hel!

I read once that the ancient Egyptians had fifty words for sand & the Eskimos had a hundred words for snow. I wish I had a thousand words for love, but all that comes to mind is the way you move against me while you sleep & there are no words for that.

WELCOME TO WYRDSTONE THE NOVEL
Hello wonderful people of Tumblr.
After years of querying, rewriting, and rejection I've decided to post my novel, WYRDSTONE over here on Tumblr so it stops collecting dust on my hard drive.
So... if you are into a good old fashioned queer fight for the throne TM this might be up your alley. We will be updating every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. Anyway, here is the official synopsis:
Fifty years ago, Atesh the Conqueror invaded and overthrew the neighboring Kingdom of Ker. Now the aging Conqueror is faced with a serious dilemma-- he's running out of heirs.
When the Conqueror summons, you answer. Which is exactly why twenty-one year old prince Asho hightails it back to the capital, sunburnt and hungover. Also attending the meeting is Admrilia, Asho's overly accomplished cousin and childhood rival. The Conqueror's directive is simple: they both must learn to harness the power of the vengeful water god Thrysne, and accompany him on the Fourth Triumph; a yearlong military expedition around the empire, to be considered for succession.
Meanwhile across the empire, Nia-Uro lives under oppressive martial law. Tasked by the local legate to search for trophies for the upcoming triumph, the long tomb raider stumbles upon a relic of the Conquering- -- a wyrdstone-- which power the Conqueror desperately covets.

remember when archie sonic made the echidnas british colonizers and not only were n*zi echidnas introduced but the guys they were actively being racist against (the dingoes) were portrayed as pissy bad guys, "appropriated" the echidna's technology (despite the echidnas themselves appropriated their land) because they "couldn't create technology of their own" and also more n*zi caricatures too
and then the spirit of one of their colonizers banished them to desert superhell
#literally everytime they dealt with native cultures the archie writers fucked up SO BAD#like the cat country with a modern portuguese name stereotypically mesoamerican aesthetics and an egyptian queen#OR THE FACT THAT THEY MOVED THE WOLF PACK#WHO WERE CLEARLY MEANT TO BE NORTH AMERICAN NATIVES#TO SOUTH AMERICA#BEVAUSE AMERICAN NATIVES ARE ALL THE SAME FUCKING THING APPARENTLY#and when they showed pachacamac it was soooo clear that he was redesigned by white people#that wasnt pachacamac that was patchacamack#or when they made the journey to the west adaptation#and thought it would be a good fucking idea to mix chinese and japanese cultures as the same fucking thing#i like pre sgw archie but those kinds of things make it SO HARD to stomach it through...#sth#archie sonic#in this house we hate ken penders#text post
