Friendly little reminder that Legend of Mana's release date anniversary is coming up soon! It's on the 15th of July, and this year is also the 25th anniversary! (this is going by the Japanese release date, which was 1999).

I'm really, really hoping to be able to draw proper fanart for this year's anniversary, though I am a bit intimidated seeing as I've never really made art which I think comes close to expressing how magical this game is...but here's to trying, and I have two weeks to do it.

Hoping to see some love for this game when the date does come around though! The Japanese fan artists I see on Twitter definitely knock it out of the park every time, their works are so cool...

A scroll from me and my knight to you: it's finally here!

[fluent-in-lesbianism]

One of my kids at work last night chatted with me while I finished my paperwork and she told me about this new social media website she uses called tumbler (sp?) and she went into so much detail of what people do on tumbler and how she just started a blog and when I asked what blogs are she explained everything for me and at the very end of her explanation and of me nodding and making "oh?" noises her eyes got so big and she goes, "you should get one too, Ms. Natalie! that'd be so cool!" and I was like "mmm idk it doesn't really sound like something I'd like". I felt so bad

I am holding so much gender in my hand right now

I'm not starting them just yet, there are some tests and fertility preservation things I've got to do first, but I now have Estrogen! I've been debating getting this for like 4-5 years, I may decide it's not for me after I start. I am still genderqueer/genderfluid and I still use any pronouns. I'm not taking T blockers yet either. We'll see how it goes! :)

If you are wanting to start HRT, I highly recommend Folx. I signed up with them, booked an appointment with a Doctor, and had a prescription for Estrogen within a week! Check them out: https://www.folxhealth.com/

It's here.

The Shepherds of Haven Twine alpha build is live on Patreon!

What's New:

UI! A new UI for the game awaits you, including a range of visual themes to switch between light and dark mode, each with its own ‘minimalist’ version for those who favor strict readability! Stat screens, achievements, notifications, codex entries, newspaper articles, journal entries, storefronts, the day off hub, relationships, the character guide, the inventory, your room, trading cards, gambling, and so much more have been redesigned from the ground-up!

Miss the old look? Switch the font to Georgia and use the "Scholar" theme in your settings. You can even toggle "prioritize stat bars" if you want to change everything back to just stat bars!

A vast range of settings to customize your game! Includes several fonts and ways to read the text, including OpenDyslexic font, as well as toggles to disable or enable visual effects, music, and character art. 

Robust save system! Now, you can not only use 10 different save slots on your browser (including autosaves), you can also download saves directly to your device, arrange and rename them as you like, and even use them to play the game between different devices and browsers!

Interactive maps! Explore and learn about the world of Blest like never before!

Music! A gorgeous custom soundtrack for the game was designed and composed by Ivan Duch and will play at key moments in the story.

Art! New character art, character cards, collectible trading cards, background art, codex documents, bestiary notes, and so much more have now been integrated into the game. Don’t miss the absolutely gorgeous cover designed by Angela Wang!

Fully mobile compatible! Though desktop is strongly recommended for the best gameplay experience, Shepherds is mobile-compatible and feature-rich regardless of what device you play it on.

Other gameplay improvements:

Trouble and Briony are now romanceable by players of all genders.

All players can change their pronouns at any times. Pronouns do not affect romances.

Gambling is now unlocked earlier.

Two day offs is now unlocked earlier.

You can now allocate different points in magic and weaponry training to different skills, not just one at a time.

For now, the new alpha build is only available on Patreon, primarily because this is all new to me and I was working under a severe crunch after the abrupt closure of Dashingdon. Once all the bugs have been ironed out, I feel less nervy, and the dust has settled down some--and I get some semblance of a functional daily life back again--I'll get to work making a public demo available to everyone. It shouldn't be too long of a wait!

In the meantime, please consider signing up for the Shepherds of Haven newsletter: you'll be notified of only the most important announcements--including the release of the public demo, beta-testing opportunities, DLC announcements, and more. Plus, you'll get a free exclusive digital wallpaper based on Shepherds of Haven! :)

Favorite Marta and Fina Moments - Part 106 Sueños de Libertad, Ep. 37

[hellishfig]

"you anticipate a landscape rife with the spirit and you sense a landscape devoid of spirit. the same dread that would fill you if you dropped a stone down an open well and never heard a splash fills you as your divine sense reaches out to feel... nothing."

this description was one of the best i've ever heard. a perfect metaphor for expectation versus haunting and unnatural reality

also interesting that for ame's nat 1 insight check which also gives her nothing, brennan uses metaphors and similes of cities. how the crowds and eternal noise of people living being absent creates that ringing silence when one goes away from a city for the first time. a broken ceiling fan. we- or at least i- often think of ame as of nature, similar to eursulon, but people are a part of her domain as well. and neither nature nor civilization exist in a war zone. only death

and yet. a firefly

and yes, the firefly is scouting ahead for eioghorain and his shapeshifter rebels and suvi. it probably wouldn't be here otherwise. but even when the world is razed and nothing can grow, that's not the end. death is here, but life will persevere. it can do nothing else

i promised y'all the next two days of minentines today hehe

Trying to pick a favourite au in this fandom is hellish how dare you make me do that. But currently Portal Hallway has me in a chokehold so I'm going for that one 😼😼

Minentines by @ivormybeloved and portal hallway by @zuliuli !!!

And have a Nurm I drew in class without a reference WEEKS ago who's very inaccurate for the au but looks cute enough that I don't really care-
