Something so hot about Zeus and Hera being the prime example of an imperfect marriage and is shown to have many issues and yet both have no problem obliterating any couple who dares to compare their marriage to theirs or calls their spouse their names or that they loved each other more than the King of the Gods loves His Queen, Goddess of Marriage

It's about hot and cold, but it's also like Green and Pleasant Vacation Europe and The Forest Primeval. IIRC Voldemort is supposed to have fled in exile to Albania, of all places. Imagine him licking his wounds in a Hoxhaist bunker. You can't just make up a Ruritania any more, because of woke.

we need a Green and Pleasant European equivalent to ruritania—a place to put harry potter's beauxbatons, &c. if there already isn't a better term out there, i humbly propose clochemerle—a fictional french village that serves as the main setting of gabriel chevallier's novel of the same name, today used as a byword for "petty, parochial squabbling" in colloquial french

I still remember being vaguely surprised to realize places like Croatia, Bulgaria, and Albania had, well, Mediterranean climates, that they were *sunny*, despite the Balkans being literally across a very narrow sea from Sunny Italy.

to be fair, most of the balkan peninsula actually is colder than just about any part of italy. this goes especially for inland parts of former yugoslavia, which are closer in climatic type to poland or the baltics (or, like, new england) than to latitudinally equivalent tuscany or padania (no excuse for thinking albania or bulgaria could be anything but Sunny, though). where walks the wind, snow follows...

i've come across two completely separate pieces of anglophone media—vampire: the masquerade and harry potter—that seem incapable of distinguishing wendish from norse europe. for the former, clanbook: tzimisce appears to had been written by someone who believes transylvania, belarus and sweden are all within walking distance of one another; for the latter, durmstrang is a wizarding school founded and staffed by bulgarians, and located in the far north of scandinavia

what's up with that? and don't tell me it's because of the varangians—i truly don't believe j.k. rowling (or any of the people behind v:tm) are aware russia was founded by norsemen. the only conclusion that seems reasonable to me is that, at least for some anglos, europe is split not into romance, germanic and slavic europe, but into cold europe (covering both northern and eastern europe) and warm europe (covering both western and southern europe, and maybe greece). which, well. is certainly one way to divide the continent

[calvalia]

What is one of her myths?

The Myth of the Lily of the Valley

It is said that a beautiful princess named Calvalia from a lost kingdom in the east (once known as Atlantis) drank a tonic of this poisonous flower to escape an arranged marriage. Moved by the lengths she went to find escape, the West Wind Zephyrus resurrected her as one of his kin and brought her with him to Mt. Haemus. It is believed that where her tears fall, a lily of the valley sprouts in its place. Thus, the delicate white blooms began to thrive in the lands of Ancient Greece.

These flowers would catch the attention of the God Apollo, who was intrigued by their unique appearance and medicinal qualities. Following a trail of them led him to the weeping anemoi, whom he comforted with a song. They formed a bond as they sang together, and having won her trust and affection, she pledged her loyalty to serve him on Mt. Olympus. His fondness for her flowers, the lily of the valley, would also earn it the name “Apollinaris.”

*some versions of the myth claim that Apollo took Calvalia from Mt. Haemus to spite Zephyrus, who had caused the death of his lover Hyacinthus.

A dumb little comic I thought of after forcefully inserting Cullen into @kits-carnival's universe. Haemus and Laine belong to him. DW, Cullen's not gonna actually steal his girl... not yet at least.

I am 14, this is my hobby, I am learning but I spent many hours and days on this, and I am always open to criticism. I have been doing worship for 5 years. Please know you can use the info, I do not sue, but I will take action if this work is used without permission and not put as a resource if used in any work. without permisson and not put as a resource if used in any work, for the public.

This is my first deep dive from 2 years ago, now I have about more than 12

A snippet from the new AU (there’s a good chance I’m going to call it “The Iberian”). Warnings: Roman Empire being the Roman Empire. REAL WARNING: Spinoff characters appear.

Hispania Exterior, 138 BC, in the midst of the Third Celtiberian War

“Are we ready?” Brutus asked, his voice cutting through Andreas’ fancies. 

Andreas squeezed the rest of the waterskin out. He smacked his lips, smearing away runaway water from his chin. The liquid dribbled, rolling down his armguard like a fresh drop of rain. It landed on the hilt by his waist, breadths away from scorched knuckles that had spent too long in the heat.

Brutus clawed at his scruff of a beard. “I want to see some action.”

Andreas chuckled. He tossed the waterskin to the boy behind him. Antsy, the youth took off, back in the direction of their camp. But Brutus did not budge, grip tight on his shield, and tighter on his staff. 

“You’ll get your fair share of blood, my friend,” Andreas said, brushing the dust from his cape, “enjoy the air while it lasts.”

He clapped Brutus on the shoulder. Behind his Second, Andreas saw Roy clutching his spear, brow slick with sweat. 

“You look like you’re about to throw up,” Andreas told him, “you’re not going to run off, are you?”

Roy shook his head. “Just nerves. I’ll be fine.”

“Good.” Andreas tilted his head. He grinned. “Or I’d have to drag you back and beat you. And well, I don’t think either of us would enjoy that.”

He raked his hand over Roy’s hair. Roy smiled, a rare phenomena Andreas had coaxed out.

Brutus snorted. “Nothing to worry about. What are a bunch of barbarians going to do to us? Eh, Andreas?”

Andreas tapped Roy’s helmet, wedged in the crook of the boy’s arm. “Perfectly so. We’ll crush them within the hour and return home in time for the Bacchanalia. Now suit up.”

Andreas moved farther up the hill. Grass poked his toes, his sandals catching in bits of dirt. He stopped, a clear view below. There was a mass of men in rags approaching, as haphazard and exposed as they expected. A barbaric cluster of noise.

“Tell them to sound the trumpets,” Andreas said, turning to Brutus. “And take Roy back to the hastati.”

“Finally.” Brutus spat on the ground. His smile was bright. “Carpe diem!”

Andreas marched on, beelining to where his men stood waiting. The familiar weight of silver and horsehair again touched his skull. He fastened the helmet, its coolness welcome. Upon his head, the red plumes shimmered, as if peacock feathers dipped in blood. 

He then said a final prayer to Mars:

“Mars unconquered, in your cloud-capped crag of Mount Haemus, we beseech you bestow upon us, your blood: vigor, victory, glory.”

Then she adds four scenes of contest in the four corners, each with miniature figures, in their own clear colours, so that her rival might learn, from the examples quoted, what prize she might expect, for her outrageous daring.

Velázquez, Diego. The Spinners (The Fable of Arachne). 1648.

One corner shows Thracian Mount Rhodope and Mount Haemus, now icy peaks, once mortal beings who ascribed the names of the highest gods to themselves.

Le Brun, Charles, and Christian Hagen. Etching with Rhodope and Haemus Turning into Mountains. Amsterdam: Herzog August Bibliothek, Wolfenbüttel, Germany. Index number M: Lh 1551 (78). 1619-1690 AD.

A second corner shows the miserable fate of the queen of the Pygmies: how Juno, having overcome her in a contest, ordered her to become a crane and make war on her own people.

"Fight Between Pygmies and Cranes: A Story from Greek Mythology." The Strand Magazine, published 1897.

Also she pictures Antigone, whom Queen Juno turned into a bird for having dared to compete with Jupiter’s great consort: neither her father Laomedon, nor her city Ilium were of any use to her, but taking wing as a white stork she applauds herself with clattering beak.

Ovid. Metamorphoses d'Ovide en Rondeaux. 1676. "Antigone Changed into a Stork."

The only corner left shows Cinyras, bereaved: and he is seen weeping as he clasps the stone steps of the temple that were once his daughters’ limbs.

"Ulysses and Penelope." In situ, Macellum, Pompeii, ca. 60 CE. (No illustrations of this particular myth exist so I used this lovely art as a placeholder.)

Minerva surrounded the outer edges with the olive wreaths of peace (this was the last part) and so ended her work with emblems of her own tree.
