My not-really-old early concept of a place that I have been thinking about the concept for a long time now, and is supposed to be only exists in my Sky AU, but then the more I think of the concepts, it also made me realize that it gets some relations with the current Sky gameplay especially in economies with the Ancestors. So I decided to make it as a fan-Season too!! [Season of Trading(?)]

Some infos abt it that I might add more soon:

In my AU, this place is only for Sky Kids who wants to be a Guide for the newborn Children of Light for each Realms, as there were some spirits and Adult Sky "Kids" that can taught them about Martial Arts, Archery, Swords, Spears, and other weapons, and even Magic, Flight (including riding Light Creatures like Manta!), even other languages and secret codes!! And while this place is hidden, there are still some sly and tricky hunters or maybe scavengers that stealing some stuffs from the village and will do anything to get something that got their interests, no matter what.

The location is either reaaalllyyyy hidden in Hidden Forest, or far far away from Prairie Peaks or Aviary, or even in an undiscovered island! The only way to get there is to warp from the guide while the Season is active as the usual, OR riding a manta instead of a boat!! *

This place actually prohibited the usage of Diamonds, knowing what it was made from, so that's why it didn't use boat, and most of the stuffs there are probably traditional / handmade. (This may also explains why the place is really far / hidden, so that it can be far from the others that has been using the diamonds.)

^ Like this one from the Sky: The Two Embers hahasehhase ^

New experience for arriving in the new Season location hell yeah,,,,,, yes you can tell that I got bored with using boats to bring us into the new Season location /jk

I kinda think of the spirits to be 6 but with no expressions (yet, or maybe no-) and each of them has their own jobs! I am still thinking of the job for the spirits and I will pick some from these; woodchopper, miner, farmer, crafter, chef, herdsman(?), book archiver, and even a tailor too like in Aviary maybe?

The guide is either an old-ish Spirit that looked like an archiver, or the Spirit that helps with the delivery to the other Realms.

*(Though there IS a boat- or more likely a ship-, somewhere near the sea after the Forest, and it's a WOODEN BIG AHH SHIP THAT HELPS TO DELIVER STUFFS FOR FARAWAY ISLANDS....)

The inspirations I took for this are from a lot of possible medias that I know, such us Zelda, DND, Genshin, Spiritfarer, HTTYD, Lara Croft / Tomb Raider, Princess Mononoke, The Chronicles of Narnia, Avatar (both Avatar with the blue creature one (Na'vi) and Avatar with the Aang boi), and PROBABLY MANY MORE BUT I FORGOT WHAT I SHOULD PUT AUGH-

Also inspired by some of Tom Zhao's Sky concept arts, and some of the existing concept such as Aviary Village, Wind Paths, and the treehouses in Sky like the one with the Assembly Spirits and the one with the Belonging Grandma that give us breads :3c

the moment he remembered Emmet...

Out of all the moments to remembers... it's now...

Mishearing Ember for Emmet, subconciously reaching out to someone who isn't there. The fog surrounding his memories is lifting, returning to their original station.

I'm sure he's at the point where he's not fully there anymore. At this moment he's probably back in Unova waiting for Emmet, ready to finish off the day at the Battle Subway.

It has been a long day and he is eager to get some rest to sleep. Today he's extra tired from work. He's sure that Emmet is as well. He's so tired and he wants to rest. "Sleep" tugging at him.

The level of pain has been through the roof with this! But it is comforting that the next time he comes to be and is more clear there IS gonna be Emmet at his side along with Akari most mayhaps!

Gosh I already know this fic is gonna rip me to shreds but I'm gonna be all there for that!

And the WIPs and the way you're writing is definitely making this a ride I wanna be in until the end!

In regards to this IWLYB WIP I posted

Correct, Ingo is losing himself at the end here, probably not sure of what he is and isn’t supposed to be seeing or hearing anymore, and not being well enough to realize he should care that’s even happening. The brain is just going through everything it still has.

But man the way you phrase it, to him he is just waiting for Emmet after a long day of work and being tired and just wanting to sleep. Ohhh ow ow <;( OWW AUGH

But you are also correct in that his next lucid moment will be waking up to see Emmet and Akari. He’s got it easy past this point, just lose consciousness and wake up at the good part. Akari’s the one that’s left alone with all the hard work to get him to that point!

I’m so glad you’re looking forward to the fic and you’re enjoying the WIPs!! Thank you so much!!

And, uh…

Thanks, @oh-shtars, for the angst idea near the end

[alinasteelcrest]

Alina's been wandering on her own for a few months now.

Well, "on her own" isn't exactly accurate- She has her horse and his dog for companions, and they've been good ones. She's not sure she'd have made it this far without them.

She dearly misses the rest of their family that they had to leave behind. It was for the best, but that doesn't make it any easier. All she can hope is that, one day, this will all be over, and she and Shoji will get to see his foals again.

And if there's no sign of this apocalypse ending, or even getting easier... maybe she'll go home, anyway.

Last time anyone saw her, she was headed for the Wildwoods. Maybe she made it, or maybe she turned around and headed somewhere else. Who's to say?

The thief found herself on her back with on hand clutching the bedsheets and the other under her breasts as she tried to resist the pleasure as she felt the thrusts to her pussy as she bit her lip, trying to stifle any attempts of moans.

Songs for An Old Ballad Of Chance And Ember Hearts Trilogy, A Radioactive Calamity Of Love, Bombs & Gore and one specifically called "Dinosaur Escape" for the Jurassic World WIPs in The UnTitledverse, though the Jurassic World: Into The Eye Of The Storm WIP fits this one. You can listen to them below the cut:

The Trilogy of An Old Ballad Of Chance And Ember Hearts are a trio of original works about the first pair of human explorers of the Multiverse as they traverse through numerous and wonderful worlds that exist within it. It explores the beauty and darkness of the mesmerizing nature of life. "Dream Your Dream" I believe encapsulates the fantastical and ethereal tone, especially with its balance between the whimsical dream and a dreadful nightmare, which is emphasized through the lullaby-aesthetic of the song, as this trilogy is written as historical accounts of these two explorers' journeys from a time that has long since passed.

"The ticking clock breaks the spell with every beat Illusion or not, you are safe for now So dream, so dream your dream So dream your dream

So dream, dream, dream your dream 'Cause when you're awake your nightmare awaits So dream, dream, dream your dream 'Cause when you're awake the nightmare awaits It's a fantasy, they'll be seeing you soon Nowhere left to go, terrors keep breaking through So dream, dream, dream your dream 'Cause when you're awake The nightmare will become the truth."

Throughout all six of the fics I have for my Fallout series, A Radioactive Calamity Of Love, Bombs & Gore, I think the most grim and game-changing one would have to be the Fallout: New Vegas fic, The House On Top, not that this series isn't already written to be grimmer and darker than the games. Anywho, the song I believe sets the tone going forward during and post-FONV's fic would have to be "Game Of Survival".

"Who's in the shadows? Who's ready to play? Are we the hunters? Or are we the prey?

There's no surrender And there's no escape Are we the hunters? Or are we the prey?

This is a wild game of survival."

Of course "Dinosaur Escape" can just be for all my Jurassic World fics, however I think it's closest to my Jurassic World: Into The Eye Of The Storm WIP as that takes place during Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom, especially with references to the Isla Nublar eruption and the Indoraptor himself. This specific fic focuses on Joaquin Cobalt, Edward Carmine and Indo (+ Diego & Phone) as they try to get off the island before they're consumed by molten ash of death. It's also the fic where Maisie gets introduced, and she plays an important part throughout The UnTitledverse entire series. The song's also a kind of Spoiler-ish free recap for Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom if anyone wants to listen.

"On Isla Nublar So many dinosaurs are running wild Too many to count But Claire has got a list of names compiled I feel a rumble on the island and I start to think... We have to save the dinosaurs before they're all extinct

Start with the herbivores!

The Stegosaurus last was seen by the Cretaceous Cruise Triceratops was in the Gentle Giants petting zoo Pachycephalosaurus used to fight in Pachy Arena Ankylosaurus were around the Gyrospheres beside the forest

Oh! I feel a rumble coming from a volcano I see a stormy cloud I see a dark red glow So grab the gyrosphere and step on the gas We've got to go It's gonna blow 'Cause it's an eruption Eruption

Chaos is all around While Claire's embarking with a crew And Owen Grady joined the team to help them look for Blue Isla Nublar's falling and the population's on the brink They've got to save the dinosaurs before they're all extinct

Onto the carnivores!

Carnotaurus has two horns protruding from her head Ferocious Allosaurus broke from holoscape and fled Last remaining Tyrannosaurus Rex escaped her kingdom Baryonyx almost ate the crew inside the lava chamber

Oh! I feel a rumble coming from a volcano I see a stormy cloud I see a dark red glow So grab the gyrosphere and step on the gas We've got to go It's gonna blow 'Cause it's an eruption Eruption

The Indoraptor was created by Dr. Wu A hybrid dinosaur 2,000 pounds designed for war Half Velociraptor, half Indominus Rex And it's up to Blue to defeat him now

I feel a rumble, I feel a rumble I feel a rumble coming from a volcano I feel a rumble, I hear the sound We've got to go before Jurassic World comes falling down Yeah!

Eruption!"

(Mod do you know what self shippers are and do you hate them?

there's not many people in the world i hate

honestly? i accidentally became one. the whole reason @askthe-littlepoet is a thing, is because i was bored, was doing a bit where i parody myself, and felt a sudden wave of depressive numbness, verbalized it (because, at the time i was anonymous), and coffee (as narinder) called me(?) "a little poet"

if it's well written, i'll acknowledge the craftsmanship, and if it isn't, i'll understand that too, but it doesn't seem awful too harmful, doesn't it? isn't it just... making an oc version of yourself, and shipping it with a character?

i know it's semi-odd to hear "hey, the guy behind AM doesn't hate people!" but, well

i find some easier to, than others

(little rant in the tags, i needed to let that out, sorry chat)

Crackpot theory under the cut. Or maybe not, I'm not well versed on lore.

Something in my brain tells me Lord Ember & Hollow Ground have beef that goes beyond them being kingpins from different cities. Obviously that plays into it but it goes way beyond something so obvious, it's personal.

Could it be related to at least one of HG's allegedly deceased siblings? Posdibly.

There's also the fact we gotta consider Shroud from a narrative standpoint. Step, a regene, is obviously connected to Hollow Ground in some way. So Shroud, who's also a regene, being connected to Lord Ember has to mean something.

🗣️ + two characters of your choice!

"Nubern!" Eld roared as he brandished his pistol at the back of his former apprentice. The old man's face hard and eyes ice as he leveled the barrel at him from one end of the tram cart.

The shorter man slowly stood up straighter as he heard his name from a voice he'd not heard in a very long time. A slight shift of his shoulders as his head turned to face his mentor, the dark glasses upon his face flashing like lightening from the glow lamps outside. "Mister Candell."

The witch hunter adjusted his grip as he shifted his body a bit to steady the pistol with both hands now as he kept a steady bead on his the mad inquisitor. "Drop them."

The blank face of Josiah Nubern did not flinch as he stared down the barrel of a gun, far more used to firearms than Eld could ever be. His posture like a champion fencer as the spectacled man would do all he could to make a smaller target for the hunter. "You're alive."

"So are you."

Nubern kept his lips tight as he spoke. "I'd heard only rumors. I'm glad they were truthful."

"I'd like to say the same for you," Eld replied, his voice growing quieter as he concentrated. "Now do as I said, drop them."

"Where is Bandit?" The calm question striking the old man like the bullet he currently hoped not to use on the young man.

"Josiah, I need to see your pieces on the ground. Now. I don't want to hurt you."

There was a slight tilt of the head as Josiah regarded Eld with the forever stoic stare, a terrible affliction of his past and likely present in the face of all manner of horror. "I don't think you will."

"Then you don't know me very well."

"Truthfully," Josiah answered with a calm and bland voice, the trademarks of the killer he had become. Or maybe had always been. His smooth hands gingerly drawing one of the many chambered pistols he kept at a shoulder, only for him to swiftly draw another from his hip to point back at Eld with his offhand. The glint of gunmetal flashed much like his spectacles as the two men squared off in the passenger cart. "I doubt either of us know each other."

The glow lamps outside continued to flash by the wide windows of the tram as the Deeprun continued it's long trip to Ironforge as Eld gritted his teeth.

"Don't blink, Candell." Josiah spoke in a whisper as the shadow of the tunnel finally closed over them both only to be lit again by thunder and fire.

Recently uploaded chapter six! It's kinda crazy to me that I'm somehow managing to see this through, albeit slowly. I've been wanting to write this Fic for a decade at this point.

This is still only the prologue arc but I am DETERMINED to see this to the end >:3
