Magus
Part 2: Cafe (8-28-23)
"So," Nesta murmured, and Tamlin's piercing green eyes met hers. "How are you? How do you feel?" Tamlin was quiet for a moment, before speaking, his green eyes glowing faintly.
"...I feel..." He blew a lock of golden blonde hair out of his face, revealing the mark that emblazoned his forehead, before the hair fell over the mark again, obscuring it. "...Different." He placed a hand over his heart. "There's this... new power in me, stronger than anything I've felt-" He paused as Nesta shot to her feet. Tamlin frowned at the sudden unease that came upon him. He looked, meeting Nesta's gaze and she nodded. The pair left the cafe, Tamlin following behind Nesta as she ran, heading for a familiar place.

WIP Wednesday - Nostos
HA! This week I have my act together - it is I who will be tagging!
@mareenavee @thana-topsy @dirty-bosmer @greyborn2 @gilgamish @archangelsunited @paraparadigm @inquisition-dragonborn @skyrim-forever @elfinismsarts @polypolymorph @orfeoarte @tallmatcha @snippetsrus @rainpebble3 @saltymaplesyrup @thequeenofthewinter @changelingsandothernonsense.... STAND AND DELIVER (those WIPs) Khemor gro-Skaven still has me hung up on those wonderful orc tusks. Here's the opening scene for Nostos, the fic that will be a sequel to Aristeia.
Fandom: The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Rating: T (blood and violence, mushy stuff [kissin' not viscera]) Category: M/F Genre(s): Romance Main characters: Borgakh the Steel Heart, Khemor gro-Skaven (Male orc LDB)
Summary: Khemor gro-Skaven thought that after he defeated Alduin, he would not have to worry about anything more dangerous than a quill knife for the rest of his existence. But when jarl of the Pale asks him to investigate the destruction of the Hall of the Vigilants, it sets off a chain of events that ultimately leads him to wash up at the feet of Borgakh the Steel-Heart of Mor Khazgur. But what can a crippled conjuration mage-scholar half again her age possibly offer to a future Shield-Wife?
14 Rain's Hand, 4E 205 The snowfields of the Druadachs were melting in the spring rain that drew a gauzy gray veil over their jagged peaks. The dripping rivulets joined larger streams, carving ever-deeper grooves down the granite faces of the mountains, where they joined together in glades just greening with the waning of winter. The streams became myriad rivers whose names were known only to the inhabitants of the remote wilderness where they roared and foamed over jagged rocks on their way to the great river Karth, and finally to the sea.
Khemor gro-Skaven, Thane of Eastmarch and The Pale, the Last Dragonborn, Vanquisher of Alduin, Confidant of the High King of Skyrim, and disgraced former Magus of the College of Whispers, was now drowning in one of those rivers. The violent current wrapped Khemor's thick traveling robes and cloak around his limbs as he struggled to grab onto passing debris; his head rang from the blow it had taken on a rock as his feet had been swept from under him, preventing him from even attempting a rudimentary waterbreathing spell in a last-ditch effort to save his sorry hide. Shouting was out of the question.
Calder is going to kill me. Khemor's lungs burned for want of air and the cold water squeezed his chest, the deluge pinning him against a submerged tree trunk as coherent thought left him.
Something was pinching Khemor in half. Unbearable pressure resolved itself into a narrow band of fire across his stomach: Khemor tried to squirm away but his arms and good leg refused to move, as if weighed down by anchors.
Breaking the surface of water he had not known he was under, the heavy wet canvas of his cowl plastered itself to his mouth as he tried to draw a desperate breath. A wracking cough caused him to twist in the hands that were hauling him by his belt through the shallows. A torrent of muddy, foul-tasting water spewed from his mouth as he hit the ground, his face in the clay of the riverbank.
He coughed again, his sopping cowl now hanging away from his face enabling him to take deep draughts of air in between wrenching paroxysms. As his lungs cleared, so did his mind.
Calder is never going to let me live this down, Khemor thought, waiting for the inevitable indignant lecture his housecarl was wont to give whenever Khemor did something particularly foolhardy.
"Are you able to stand?" said a gravelly, yet unmistakably feminine voice above him.
That is not Calder.
Khemor lifted his head, peeling the hood of his cowl and a lock of his hair back to peer up at his rescuer. As he blinked the river water from his eyes, the blurry figure above him came into focus.
An orc stood above him, silhouetted by the noonday sun. Water droplets twinkled as they fell from her dark hair and traced the severe angles of her face. Her yellow-green eyes gleamed in the dark hollows under her heavy brow, framed by deep madder paint that graced her high cheekbones and was now dripping and streaking towards the two white tusks peeking out from behind her lower lip. Her tunic and trews clung to her figure, revealing every bulge and groove of her well-muscled arms and legs.
Khemor shut his mouth with a snap, words crowding his throat but none of them would come out.
Say something, you idiot!
Instead of words, another coughing fit gripped him, leaving him breathless and retching as he brought up more river water. The orc knelt next to him, heedless of the mud and clay of the riverbank, and gave him several back blows that made him see stars.

It seemed like this year at the Gala there was no Magus in sight. Even with the Caster’s terrible clairvoyance, unable to sense him, was he ultimately the one who caused his downfall last year after trying to have some fun. And it already seemed like there was word of a beast roaming the manor’s halls of this year’s Gala. The Pretender hear murmurs about it, about how a death already happened. If he were to do anything now, no matter what the rules were in tact this year, it wouldn’t be any worse than what already happened right?  After all the security here must already have their hands full with tracking down that beast!  Upon the Pretender’s entrance would he be accompanied by thick dark purple smoke, spores that seemed to be from the local Mors; aswell as his usual vermin of moths and insects, and of course, his large, rathe friendly caterpillars. Alright Avalon, ready for round two?

Magus Mors
Like the Neuroworm, Magus Mors are magically treated larva of the Neurophages. However, where Neuroworms are intended to assimilate and become an entirely new Neurophage, Magus Mors are not. With only the barest of intelligence and altogether far too much magic, these creatures burrow into the body of a creature and attach to their spinal cord. Designed as weapons of terror and chaos by the Neurophages, Magus Mors will then impart magic to their host... at a cost. Magus Mors can make immense amounts of magic, but they need immense amounts of food to do so. When the host cannot consume enough due to physical limitations, the Magus Mors begins to devour them.
Primarily used in Arṣatum, where the majority are magical, Magus Mors are horrifying whether their host is magical or not. In magical individuals, the sudden surge of magic can make individuals feel powerful, unbeatable, and reckless. While it may sometimes be recognised as abnormal, and treatment attempted, it is often mistaken for Traumatic Magic, induced erratic magic such as is caused by Synaesthesia Arcana, or diseases such as Golden Lues. In non-magicals, the magic may be interpreted as a squib caused by suppressed magic (where there is not enough magic to form an Obscurus, and is done more due to self-doubt than self-loathing). The one case of an infected surface muggle was originally touted as proof of muggles “stealing” magic, though the muggle’s rapid decline and death was generally considered to cast doubt on the claim. 
The magic created by a Magus Mors is only nominally under the control of the host. It bursts out with emotion and, to a little degree, with intent. The innate Legilimency-like ability of Neurophages is strong in Magus Mors, and their connection to the spine gives them an intimate understanding of their hosts thoughts and desires. In this way the magic first starts responding to conscious whims, before moving onto more drastic things. After a while the magic ceases to answer to the host at all, especially if the host’s health is declining, simply becoming erratic and destructive as the Magus Mors itself realises it is soon going to die. Some speculate, due to the known sapience of full Neurophages, that the Magus Mors becomes more erratic as the host declines in the hope of being extracted and thus surviving the host’s death, though all attempts to extract a Magus Mors have resulted in the death of both host and parasite.

Diolch am dy bostynnau: maen nhw’n mor defnyddiol! Ces i fy magu yng Nghymru ond rwy’n byw yn yr Alban nawr, a rwy wedi anghofio y rhan fwyaf o’r iaith. Ti’n dysgu Cymraeg y De neu’r Gogledd yn bennaf?
Diolch am dy 'ask'! (cwestion? gofyn?? Beth fyddai Tymblr yn ei alw e...)
Ro'n i'n dysgu Cymraeg y De'n wreiddiol; wnes i ddechrau'r fersiwn deheuol cwrs Say Something In Welsh, so dwi'n siarad Cymraeg y de yn aml, ond dwi wedi bod darllen a chlywyd Cymraeg o lawer o siaradwyr wahanol yn ddiweddar: ar y radio, mewn ysgrifennu, ar-lein, a nawr, sylwebaeth a sgwrs yn ystod gemau pêl droed Cymru, so dwi'n dysgu geiriau o bob rhan o'r wlad!
So yeah, you'll likely see all sorts of words popping up on this blog from whenever I find them, usually colloqiual as opposed to literary because I am just not at that level yet, but in general, the more the better, I feel!
Thanks so much for writing in, have a great day!

Ok so this is mostly just wild speculation on my part but since most of this is likely to be disproved in the next 24 hours I figured what the hell might as well put my ideas out there.
So in the Sixth Lostbelt, a Lostbelt deeply tied to Morgan and her nature as Fairy I might remind you, we are introduced to these beings called Mors. These Mors are described as dead fairies and referred to as "the black algae that pollutes the world with its existence, the curse of Britain, killer of fairies ". Now after reading this I couldn't help but be reminded of the info we have about PHH Morgan, who is said to have " inherited the primeval curse that lurks in the British Isles in the form of blackened magical energy of the same kind of Excalibur Morgan's " I can't help but fell like there is some sort of connection between the two, the Mors and this blackened magical energy and further I also can't help seeing a parallel between the duality of the Mors/ Fairies and the duality of Morgan/ Vivian and Excalibur/ Excalibur Morgan.
Also when thinking about the possible relationship between Morgan and the Mors (who are basically fairy ghosts) it reminded me of PHH Morgans connection to a certain Magus family who specializes in dealing with the spirits of dead things, the Blackmores.
Now granted that last idea probably won't really amount to much as the Mors and Blackmores are probably only similarly named due to their shared conection to the latin word for death, for reasons that should be pretty clear. There is also the fact that the Blackmores only got their name because of their history with Gransurg Blackmore who was from Austria of all places and probably doesn't have any connections to the Fairies of Great Britain. Still though if you look into it, Arthurian /Fairy lore in the Nasuverse seems to have quite a few connections to figures that in the Tsukihime timelines are known Dead Apostle Ancestors.
You have the easy one in Fou/ Cath Palug and Primate Murder, but going back into looking at Gransurg we know that he is one of the key participants in the Aylesbury Valesti the ritual said to revive The Dark Six. This ritual, set for some reason in a town in England (my pet theory is its set on the isle of Britain because its the "Navel of the World" in the Nasuverse) is believed to have started what was basically the overcount 1999 equivalent in the world of Fate/EXTRA and probably involved the Harweys. The Harweys just like Gransurg have ties to both the Aylesbury Valesti AND Arthurian Britain as shown by their Sword Camelot: Castle of the assembled brilliant Holy Sword codecast/spell.
As an almost completely unrelated aside Sword Camelot seems to fallow a naming convention of stuff related to Camelot and Saber's time as king and her knights. We have Sword Camelot: Castle of the assembled brilliant Holy Sword, Lord Camelot: Now is a Castle of Distant Ideals, Camelot Image: Fleeting Forgotten Castle and now most recentlly with Morgan we've got Lordless Camelot: The Now Unreachable Utopia.
My point is Nasu seems to be deliberately showing us things in part 2 of FGO that are connected with Tsukihime and by extension its upcoming remake, we have stuff like Fou and Primate Murder, Sion as our newest member of Chaldea, what are basically True Ancestors in Lostbelt 3 and of course what is all but certainly ORT in Lostbelt 7. Also remember that True Ancestors are a kind of fairy and we have all these connections between fairies and King Arthur and King Arthur and DAA stuff which is naturally connected with True Ancestor stuff.
Basicly how my theory is goes is this. The nature of fairies and Arthurian Britain within the Nasuverse have an, at this point a mostly unexplained relationship with the True Ancestors / Dead Apostle Ancestors and that understanding this relationship is THE Key component in understanding BOTH the Timeline split between Tsukihime worlds and Fate worlds and the plot of / major story changes from the original in the upcoming Tsukihime remake. AND it is my belief that a Huge amount of info explaining the sofar unexplained relationship between Fairies/ Arthurian Britain and Nasu Vampires will be reveled to US in the soon to released Lostbelt 6 part 2.
Sorry if this was rather chaotic. I hope I made my points clear and that my info about what we do know for certain was correct. So any thoughts?

The Judgment of Time
Well well well... here we are, back at it again It’s been a hot minute since my last Scintillam chapter, but I’ve had this WIP sitting in my docs for months, working on it on and off, and I think it’s finally in a place where I can comfortably post it.
Today is another Caecus chapter! It’s been a minute since we last checked in on him I hope everyone enjoys reading, and shoutout to @artnerd1123 for helping proofread :]
There was almost nothing in the field, but that wasn’t necessarily a bad thing. The grass was high and healthy, the sun was high overhead, a clear blue horizon extending from end to end. The ground was soft, pleasant. There was a cool breeze… It was wonderfully peaceful. Caecus let out a sigh, standing in the middle of the field, taking it in. There was a sound. He blinked, taking a small glance around. There it was again. It was- it was a knock. There are no doors out- “Gods’ sake.”
Almost as soon as the realization crossed his wandering mind, Caecus sighed in annoyance, the peaceful pastoral scene shattering like broken glass, the shards peering into a false reality falling and turning to dust as they impacted the ground, and he was in his study again, the black marks streaking across his robed body giving a dull ache as he sat down. Illusory Arcanum was a powerful thing, but gods, was it difficult. At least, on the level that he was attempting to master it. That he had been trying to master it for almost as long as he had been alive. Controlling vision was easy, as was hearing. Producing false senses of touch was a bit trickier, but not by much. Tricking one’s nose was apparently incredibly difficult, as magic itself carried no natural smell at all, and illusions were indeed just that; pure magic. There was no element to it to give it substance. It also didn’t have a taste, obviously, so that was another hurdle he was going to have to overcome. but he knew that eventually he could trick all five senses with enough practice. Oh how he has practiced. There was the knock again.
“Gods’ sake- just come in.” He called, rubbing his throbbing forehead. The nervous figure coming through the door was a familiar sight. “Ah, Mors, of course.”
Mors nervously adjusted his posture as he stepped into the room, looking the magus over. “Am I interrupting something, magus?”
“Yes, but there are worse things in life.” Caecus lowered his hand from his head, and gave the scholar a tired glare. “What is it today? It feels like you never come talk to me anymore unless it’s to deliver bad news.”
“I- I apologize for that, magus.”
“I’m sure you are.”
“... sire?”
The magus let out a deep, tired sigh, craning his neck back to stretch it for a moment before returning his gaze to the scholar. “What.”
Mors shifted anxiously under the other’s harsh gaze, one that he wasn’t exactly used to. “... I…” He sighed. “… you haven’t been acting like yourself lately, m’lord. You’ve been…” His gaze darted away from his face as he tried to think of a good way to phrase the words rattling around in his head.
Caecus’s eyes never left the other as he desperately tried to find his words. “I’ve been?”
After a moment of silence, Mors gave a very frustrated grunt. “I- well- forgive my impertinence sire, but you’ve been acting like a right ass.”
“Oh have I now?” Caecus replied, slamming his hands on his seat’s armrests and pushing himself to his feet, prompting the young scholar to flinch. “Well maybe if you’re ever High Magus you can try to keep a polite attitude when your experiments and studies have all hit a dead-fucking-end. My apolo-fucking-gies.”
Mors shrunk into himself as his superior came down on him, something he most certainly wasn’t used to. “I- I-I-I-”
“Just.” Caecus raised a slightly shaking hand, before lowering it back to his side. “What did you want, other than to insult me.”
Mors honestly couldn’t help but feel like the magus wasn’t helping his case with his current behavior. But he also felt like he had been too honest in this conversation already. “... y-you have a letter.” He nervously answered, shakily handing Caecus the letter in question. Mors flinched as the magus snatched it from his hands.
“Thank you.” Caecus brushed the scholar off, turning to head towards his desk. He rummaged around in his desk drawers for his reading spectacles, seemingly paying him no more mind. To say that Mors was hurt by this would be an understatement. But instead of pushing his luck, he simply walked back out the door, leaving the magus to his own devices.
Caecus pulled his old spectacles out of the drawer, carefully settling them on his face. His face twisted even further into a frustrated grimace when he saw the letter was from the archbishop. After a few moments of seething, he simply tossed the letter to the side. He would deal with it later. He didn’t have the time nor patience for political maneuvering with the church today. He placed his glasses on the desk, stood up, and started just pacing around the room. After a minute or two, he clapped his hands together, brought them to his face, took a deep inhale, and sighed.
Nothing was going his way.
Not his magic research, not his experiments, not his projects, nothing. He hadn’t had an inch of progress in months and it was overwhelmingly frustrating. Everything that seemed promising just led to more and more dead ends and he was so tired of it.
“Fuck it, I’m taking a walk.”
He stepped over to his study door, taking his umbrella from a hanger on the wall, and walked out. He brushed past all of the usual workers and scholars as he walked down the hall, his dour mood practically tangible to everyone he walked by.
Without giving so much as a word to anyone, he walked outside, opening his umbrella as he stepped out into the rain. Lovely how the weather seemed to be trying to sour his mood too. His shoes clacked against the stone pathways of the city as he wandered, muffled slightly by the downpour overhead. His robe dragged through the accumulating water on the ground, but thankfully a slight protection enchantment made sure that it wouldn’t actually get wet. His idle wanderings weren’t doing much for clearing his head, but it was probably better than sitting in his study all day. Probably.
After a solid ten minutes of just getting himself lost in the maze that was the Silver City, he let out a sigh and looked to the rainy sky. The moon’s light was visible through the clouds, shining through the torrent of droplets. He moved a hand out from under the cover of his umbrella, the water hitting his aged, wrinkled palm. He brought it back to himself, and stared at it for a long moment, before shaking the water off his hand.
I’m not as young as I used to be. He thought to himself. I… I’m running out of time. No matter how you look at it, I am running out of time. No… no, I’m running from time, and I’ve nowhere left to go. Time has found me and its sword hangs lazily over my head of gray hairs, and I do not know when it will fall. It could be years yet more from now… or it could be tomorrow. I don’t know. That I could simply… cease. Before I could accomplish everything I wanted to. The thought terrifies me. Ah… yes. Fear. The one thing so many creatures share; from the lowliest beast to the most powerful of monsters. We all know it. That fear of death… the desire to keep going. The will to forestall the judgment of time. Did you feel it, great dragons, before your time came? Were you capable of emotion? Did you have instincts? Or did you simply… be? Does Time feel, I wonder…? Is it capable of emotion? Does it have instincts? Thoughts? Or does it simply be? … I digress. If anything, this damned fever will probably do me in before old age, if I can’t better mitigate it. Just another problem on a long list of things for me to deal with.
He stepped forward back onto the streets of the city, and started to wade his way back to the Historium. A few minutes of walking was all it took. He may have let himself get a bit lost in his wanderings, but when he actually had a destination, he knew every road and alley of this city like the back of his hand. He pushed the door open, closing his umbrella with his other hand as he did. He was apparently gone for longer than he thought, as the lobby was much emptier than it was when he left. He didn’t pay it much mind, simply striding past the front desk and heading up the stairs back to his study. He did pass a few fellows on the way back, but he still didn’t care much for conversation. He hung his umbrella back on its hook, shutting the door behind him. He stepped over to his desk, and sat himself down. He heaved a great sigh, and glanced at the small mirror he kept on the face of the desk. He brushed the bangs covering the right side of his face aside, revealing his terribly scarred and blackened right eye. The eye was still there, it still worked, but it was pitch black. A result of his Mark, the thing that allowed him to do his wondrous feats of magic. He retracted his hand, letting the hair fall back over it. The Arcane arts were not to be taken lightly, and he knew that. But it was the closest thing he had to the magic that the dragons used. The closest thing someone without a Primordial Spark could come to using Creation Magic… even if it was only illusory. He needed… more. He would have to contact his colleague. A knock on his door dragged him out of his thoughts.
“Come in.”
The familiar silhouette of Mors once again stood in the doorway as the door creaked open. He let out a sigh, stepped in, and dropped another letter on the magus’s desk, then turned to leave. A tired, old voice called out as he was halfway out the door. “Mors.”
He froze, hand anxiously clenching the doorframe. After a moment, he turned around. “Yes, milord?”
“Please sit down.” Caecus gestured to the reading chair across from him. After a moment of nervous hesitation, the young apprentice obliged and sat down, crossing his arms. The two exchanged nothing but silence for a long moment. Eventually, the old man let out a tired sigh. “I’m… sorry, Mors.” One rested on the desk, the other idly tapped his desk, fingers clenched, but not balled into a fist. “You were right. I’ve been a right ass. I may be old, my research may be going nowhere, but… that doesn’t excuse the way I’ve been treating any of you. The way I’ve treated you. You’ve always been like a son to me, and I deeply regret the things I said to you earlier. You don’t have to forgive me, but I hope you can at least find it in your heart to tolerate me a while longer.”
The young apprentice let the magus’s words hang in the air for a moment. He drummed his fingers across his arm, contemplating something. After a while, he let out a small groan, and a slight nod. “I appreciate the apology, sir.” He quietly replied. “I…” His words trailed off, his eyes glancing to the outside balcony. “... I-I really do appreciate it. I won’t hold it against you. You’re better than your worst days, I know this.”
“I’m happy to hear that.” Caecus let a small, tired smile crease across his lips. He let out another sigh, after a moment. “It’s… it’s been a rough few months, Mors.”
“It has. For all of us.” Mors fidgeted with his robe’s sleeve for a second, before continuing. “... how have you been holding up?”
“... like the foundation of this building.” Caecus let a small, pained chuckle escape his mouth. “Old. Tired. Creaking and groaning. But still holding up. I have to.” He rubbed his forehead, before returning his hand to the desk. “I’m sorry about Jean. I am. I never meant for it to happen.”
The words choked Mors’ throat for a moment. “... I know.”
Caecus glanced up at the clock and sighed. “It’s getting late. You should be headed home soon.”
“O-oh-” The initiate nearly fell over himself when he spotted the time as well, spending a good few seconds stammering, trying to get words out. “Y-you’re right, I-I should already be halfway home I-”
Caecus held up a hand. “I know, I know. Take tomorrow off. You’ve earned it. Tell your sister I’m wishing her a swift recovery, my boy.”
“I. I-I will. Thank you, sir.”
With that, Mors quickly skittered out of the office, nearly leaving the door ajar behind him.
The magus had only himself for company now.
He picked his glasses back up off his desk, still right where he left them, and looked at the newest letter. … it didn’t have a listed sender. Hm. “... I will get back to that one in a moment.” He groaned, setting that letter aside and picking up the one from the archbishop that Mors had delivered earlier. “First. Politicking.” He opened the envelope, the seal of the holy church dangling from its face, and pulled the message out. He lowered it, reaching a hand up to rub his temple. He hadn’t even started reading and he already had a migraine. He adjusted his spectacles on his face, and started looking it over. The handwriting was, of course, right proper. As usual, for her holiness.
“Dearest High Silver Magus-” He let out another groan as those three words registered. Oh, she never addressed him by his full title unless she had taken offense with something. “-I am writing this letter today to address some concerns within the Choir. The concerns of one Father Daniels-” He took a long, sharp intake of air, held it, and let it out. He seethed. Of course. Of course the bastard took it all the way to the Gilded Choir. After the Councilman Argentum had already denied the church’s multiple requests to have the Historum searched. Now they were coming to him directly. “-have reached us here, and, as you know, the inquisition have been investigating the incidents occurring in the eastern provinces-”
“Oh, I didn’t know you were taking your witch hunts abroad this year.” He mumbled sarcastically, his hand, still tapping against the desk, slowly balling more into a tightly clenched fist.
“-and some in the Choir have taken to suspecting you of having some involvement. The Councilman Argentum has already denied our requests to search your building, as his trust in you is absolute. We would like to formally request an inquisitorial search of your premises, as you, the ruling magus of the Historum, have final say in these endeavors.
Sol bless you, Archbishop Lilliana Beneficia.”
He let the request sit for a long while. He mulled it over, staring at the parchment for nearly a whole minute. He let out a groan, pulled a paper from one of his drawers, and grabbed his quill. He tapped it against his desk for a moment, then dipped it in the inkwell, and began writing.
“Your Holiness. I appreciate your forwardness in your requests. Argent knows that political maneuvering is not exactly something I enjoy. I shall deny your request. As the Councilman Argentum has no doubt told you, internal investigations have already taken place, and I have already been cleared of suspicion. Despite your worries, the investigators of the House of the Silver Serpent are all unbiased third parties. The Councilman does not trust the judgment of your inquisitors in this matter, and neither do I. None of them can be trusted to be impartial. And the council clearly agrees, given how the Argentum Ocular have been given control of the investigation into the attacks on the eastern villages. I’m sure all your witch hunters will be very upset that they’ll have to put away their pitchforks and torches. And I would not put much stock in the reports of Father Daniels either, as he is not impartial. It’s no secret that we’ve had it out for each other for years. I’m sure you’ve only come to me because the Councilman has stopped responding to your requests, and if you bother me again, I will let him know, and he will almost certainly be furious. This will slide, only this. Know that I am appalled and offended at your unfounded accusations. I’m a tired old man in ill health. I have no time for scheming.
Shove it.
High Magus of the House of the Silver Serpent, Caecus Coluber.”
He placed his reply into an envelope, stamped it with the seal of the House, and set it aside. He could mail it in the morning. He grabbed the other letter, eying its blank canvas for a moment. He opened it.
The handwriting and ink were unmistakable.
“52.
Fresh.
31st Midnight of the Wyrm’s Moon.
Leave the door unlocked.
Gone to ground.
Last shipment for the time being.
-Y”
He slowly raised his head, taking a few nervous glances around the room. “... why wasn’t this sent by carrier.” He whispered, folding the paper back up. These were supposed to be sent by carrier birds. Not standard mail. But it wasn’t a trick, it was the real thing. Gone to ground… What happened? Taking a deep breath, he stood up, and wandered towards his fireplace in the back of the room. He took a moment to start a blaze, and then threw the letter in among the firewood, as he had always done. … why the 31st Midnight of the Wyrm’s Moon? Why on the night of the Deep Midnight Festival? There would be so many people… … maybe that was the point.
He would have to sleep on this.

“Riddle’s undivided attention snapped to him with the swiftness of shattering glass. His turbulent magic receded from where it had besieged the shop. ‘You,’ he breathed. Coiling in leisurely motions, the eager tendrils of his magic reached for Harry, swathing about his limbs and neck and chest with a liquid, flowing fascination. ‘I’ve been looking for you,’ Riddle continued, tilting his head to the side and sweeping his gaze over Harry. It was an appraisal that felt simultaneously like the raking of iron nails and the tender drapery of silk. It was so familiar, and yet… so foreign. In the winding streets of Knockturn Alley, an intricate dance of mutual obsession unravels between twenty-three-year-old Tom Riddle and a time-travelling Harry Potter.”

Random Headcanon - 09
The Weapon Hold & The Mace of the Fierce
The term varies, but Mors usually calls the place where his weapons disappear to as ‘The Weapon Hold’ although, this phrase is not technically accurate.
The Caelum’s possess the power to summon weapons at will. This best works with metal alloy, although it can work on wood at certain density, ivory, and crystal or compact glass. (such as a glass crystal ball)
Mors could actually not carry the Mace he owned, and in a resting position Mors is too weak to carry it. His upper body strength has never been appropriately able to handle the Mace. However, it is Mors’s only weapon.Other than that, Mors knows hand to hand, and excels at magic. (If he continued his route, he would be a type of Black Mage, or even a Magus.)
In order to carry the mace around, Mors heavily relies on the weapon hold for his momentum. The weapon hold works as such -- a weapon is made, bought, or discovered, and can be put in the weapon hold, but it also must be carried manually. The item then has to be stored somewhere safe, usually a place nobody will find it, so it can return to that spot.
Using it as a portal, Mors typically relied on momentum to keep the mace moving, and was usually in a fight to horribly disfigure if not kill someone with it. If the mace doesn’t kill someone, it will absolutely break bones (the Mace of the Fierce does the best ‘break’ damage on enemies) and it is too heavy for most people to throw upward. (Noctis cannot warp upward with the Mace, only straight forward towards the enemy) however the Mace can pointwarp upwards, and then be used to descend on an enemy.
When warpstriking, the mace forms an AOE (Area of Effect) impact to break anything around it, this can decimate a body by breaking dozens of bones, even destroying electrical devices like tanks and mechs. This is a bit of black magic, but mainly the very force of the mace.
The Mace is very slow, one of the slowest weapons in the game, and considering it’s slowness, it does very bad damage. When Noctis uses it, he can use it quicker when doing aerial moves, because he is much more adept with warping.
The Mace has -50% ballistic damage, as Mors was shot to death in an assassination attempt that became successful. Anyone who wields the armiger will feel the old forces of the original owner. Since Mors could not use the Mace well, Noctis’s use of it can also be slow and jarring, he’s unable to warp or even throw the mace upward, just like Mors, and he takes more damage from bullets while channeling any of his grandfathers old attack abilities.

Buddsoddi mewn Gwirfoddolwyr; fy ymweliad cyntaf â phrosiect
Tumblr media
Korina Tsioni, Swyddog Datblygu Marc Ansawdd newydd CGGC, yn sôn am ei hymweliad cyntaf â safle Vision 21, un o enillwyr y wobr Buddsoddwr mewn Gwirfoddolwyr, yng Nghaerdydd.
Helo Korina ydw i, a fi yw Swyddog Datblygu Marc Ansawdd newydd CGGC!
Rwy'n cynnal prosiect ymchwil 15 mis yng Nghymru i godi ymwybyddiaeth o sicrwydd ansawdd yn y sector gwirfoddol - yn benodol y marc Elusen Ddibynadwy a'r wobr Buddsoddi mewn Gwirfoddolwyr.
Yn yr un modd, rwy'n ymrwymedig i ddeall a chasglu barn y sector gwirfoddol yng Nghymru ar y marciau ansawdd a'r prosesau sicrwydd sydd eisoes ar waith.
Yr hyn sydd wedi bod fwyaf heriol yn ystod y ddau fis diwethaf yw deall y gynulleidfa yr wyf eisiau ymgysylltu â hi (a chofio holl acronymau gwahanol y Cynghorau Gwirfoddol Sirol!)
Ond rwy'n credu fy mod wedi dod i ddeall pethau erbyn hyn, ac rwyf wedi dechrau ymweld â sefydliadau a phrosiectau gwirfoddol, gan gwrdd â phobl sy'n ymwneud â Buddsoddi mewn Gwirfoddolwyr.
Rwy'n edrych ymlaen at deithio'n ehangach o amgylch Cymru, er mwyn gallu dechrau cyfarfod yn bersonol â'r cydweithwyr cymwynasgar yr wyf wedi bod yn siarad â nhw o'r holl Gynghorau Gwirfoddol Sirol.
Bydd rhoi enwau i wynebau yn helpu mawr - rwyf eisoes wedi cael trafodaethau ysbrydoledig drwy e-bost a thros y ffôn gyda rhai ohonynt, a oedd yn fwy na pharod i rannu peth o’u doethineb gwerthfawr gyda mi!
Fy ymweliad cyntaf
Yr wythnos diwethaf oedd y tro cyntaf i mi fentro allan o'r swyddfa yn gwisgo fy het Buddsoddi mewn Gwirfoddolwyr, gan ymweld â'r fenter wych Vision 21.
Mae gan Vision 21 lawer o safleoedd ledled De Cymru sy'n gweithio gyda phobl ag anawsterau dysgu - gan ymgysylltu ag unigolion drwy weithdai sydd â chynnwys gwybyddol a chelfyddydol a gweithio ar eu sgiliau.
Yn bwysig iawn hefyd, mae Vision 21 yn gweithio gyda 42 o wirfoddolwyr ar hyn o bryd i feithrin eu hyder, eu sgiliau cyfathrebu a'u sgiliau cyflwyno, addysgu, coginio, arwain dosbarthiadau, mentora, glanhau a llawer mwy.  
Cefais fy nghroesawu ym Mhencadlys Vision 21 gan Chris Bowsher, y Swyddog Gwirfoddoli a Lleoliadau, a’r Prif Weithredwr Rob Larkins.
Roedd yn ddiwrnod braf, roedd holl ddrysau'r gweithdy ar agor, a gallwn weld defnyddwyr y gwasanaeth yn canolbwyntio ar eu prosiectau gwaith coed - llwyth o goed Nadolig pren wedi'u paratoi, o bob maint ac eisoes wedi'u pacio mewn bocsys yn barod ar gyfer y marchnadoedd Nadolig!
Wrth gerdded drwy'r swyddfeydd ac allan i ystafelloedd y gegin, sylwais fod yno awyrgylch cadarnhaol iawn yn deillio o drafodaethau ymhlith staff, gwirfoddolwyr a defnyddwyr y gwasanaeth wrth eu gwaith.
{Picture} – took one in the workshop
Roeddwn hefyd yn falch o gael mynychu sesiwn a gyflwynwyd gan wirfoddolwr i ddefnyddwyr y gwasanaeth yn un o'u hystafelloedd dysgu clyd. Roeddent i gyd yn canolbwyntio'n ddwys ar y sesiwn, yn cymryd rhan ac yn mwynhau wrth ddysgu.
Mae'r gwirfoddolwyr sy'n cyflwyno sesiynau yn dod yn eu blaenau'n dda hefyd, gan adeiladu eu sgiliau siarad cyhoeddus a magu hyder drwy ymarfer sy'n rhoi boddhad iddynt a darparu gweithgareddau hwyliog.
Byd addysg a gwaith ieuenctid yw fy nghefndir, felly roedd gweld y gwaith rhagorol hwn yn cael ei gyflawni mewn ffordd mor ddiddorol yn codi calon rhywun.
Cyflawni Buddsoddi mewn Gwirfoddoli (am y trydydd tro!)
Mae Vision 21 wedi dal y wobr Buddsoddi mewn Gwirfoddolwyr ers 2011 ac mae wedi bod ar flaen y gad o ran gweithio â gwirfoddolwyr ers hynny - ac ar hyn o bryd mae'n cael ei asesu ar gyfer ei 3edd wobr.
'Mae'r wobr Buddsoddi mewn Gwirfoddoli yn farc pwysig iawn a'r unig un sydd ar gael am weithio gyda gwirfoddolwyr yn y sector,' meddai Chris.
'Mae'n cyfleu yn allanol i bartneriaid ein bod wedi cadw safon ein gwaith yn uchel iawn dros yr holl flynyddoedd hyn, hyd yn oed gyda newidiadau mewn staff. - Mae'n dda cael rhywun allanol yn edrych ar yr hyn rydych chi'n ei wneud a ph'un a allwch chi wella pethau, ac mae'n anfon neges at eich gwirfoddolwyr eich bod yn eu gwerthfawrogi ' meddai Rob.
Roedd clywed am werth y marc ansawdd gan bobl sydd â phrofiad o'r fath yn y sector yn ysbrydoledig.
Sicrwydd ansawdd yn y trydydd sector yng Nghymru
Tynnodd Rob a Chris sylw at fanteision y broses Buddsoddi mewn Gwirfoddolwyr iddyn nhw:
Cyfle gwych i adolygu gweithdrefnau a sicrhau bod yr holl brosesau cywir ar waith
Anfon neges glir at wirfoddolwyr presennol a darpar wirfoddolwyr eu bod yn hyrwyddwyr
Rhannu pwysigrwydd gwirfoddoli a chefnogi eraill gyda'u cymuned
Wrth drafod pwysigrwydd sicrhau ansawdd yn y sector, amlygodd Chris a Rob yr angen i fod yn rhagweithiol a rhoi eich hun ar brawf yn rheolaidd, gan nad yw'r marciau ansawdd yn orfodol ar hyn o bryd.
Cytunodd y ddau y gall yr hunanasesiad, yn ogystal â'r prosesau asesu allanol, fod yn llafurus, ond mae'n helpu'r sefydliad i gadw momentwm a pheidio â gorffwys ar ei rwyfau.
Fe wnaethant sôn eu bod, yn y gorffennol, wedi 'eistedd yn ôl a gadael i bethau lithro rhyw ychydig' ac arweiniodd hynny at golli rhai gwirfoddolwyr.
Rhoddodd hynny ysgytwad iddynt, ac ers hynny maent wedi sicrhau bod y bobl a'r prosesau cywir ar waith sy'n canolbwyntio ar roi cefnogaeth ragorol i wirfoddolwyr, gan nad ydynt byth eisiau bod yn y sefyllfa honno eto.
Peidiwch â chuddio'r beiau
Dywedodd Rob fod mynd drwy broses ddyfarnu Buddsoddi mewn Gwirfoddolwyr yn darparu gwerthusiad annibynnol o'u prosesau a'i fod yn fwy cost-effeithiol na thalu i ymgynghorydd neu werthuswr annibynnol wneud hynny; roeddent hefyd eisiau dangos i'r sector eu bod yn dal ar flaen y gad 8 mlynedd ar ôl eu hennill y wobr am y tro cyntaf!
'Y peth mwyaf yw bod yn agored ac yn dryloyw drwy gydol y broses asesu, oherwydd does dim pwynt talu'r ffi i rywun i'ch asesu os ydych chi'n mynd i guddio'r beiau' meddai Chris.
Mae Vision 21 yn gwerthfawrogi gwirfoddolwyr ac yn creu cyfleoedd i'w hysgogi a diolch iddynt; er enghraifft maent yn neilltuo'r Cyfarfod Cyffredinol Blynyddol eleni i wirfoddolwyr, drwy roi gwobrau iddynt a dathlu eu gwaith rhagorol.
Yn garedig iawn, mae wedi estyn gwahoddiad i CGGC ddod i'r Cyfarfod Cyffredinol Blynyddol a'r dathliad a byddwn yn gwneud yn siŵr ein bod ni yno!
Cymryd rhan
Os oes gennych ddiddordeb mewn darganfod mwy am Buddsoddi mewn Gwirfoddolwyr, ymunwch ag un o'r sesiynau gwybodaeth a'r gweminarau y byddaf yn eu cyflwyno ym mis Tachwedd a mis Rhagfyr ledled Cymru.  
Gallwch hefyd fynegi diddordeb mewn mynychu ein sesiwn wybodaeth a'r dathliad yn gofod3 yn Stadiwm Dinas Caerdydd ar Fawrth 19 2020.
Cysylltwch â ni gydag unrhyw gwestiynau, adborth neu syniadau ar sicrhau ansawdd a/neu Buddsoddi mewn Gwirfoddolwyr, byddaf yn falch o glywed gennych!
