Prompt 121

There have been tales throughout time of it, in many forms and in many places. Some would even argue that it’s about different things, mere coincidence lest legends be really true. Of beasts and guardians and creatures of great destruction all wrapped in one. 

Some tales have long since been forgotten, left to dreams and dust  until they were merely stories. Insatiable monsters trapped in legends told at night, and guardian spirits lost to the sounds of day. The being whose body formed the land they stood upon, whose blood powered everything around them as they turned their prayer to false gods that would not save them. 

They abandoned their dead and ways of old, turning towards false light and fear of shadows growing. They pray to false idols while damning those who warn them in the same breath, denial dancing on their tongues while they know the truth all the same. 

Their pride and hubris dances amidst their veins, fear an alien feeling as they ignored the warning signs, so certain in their own power and creations. 

And yet, the rocks still shift, something great, something Ancient awakening. Metal collapses with dying screams, great swaths of earth crumbling as it shifts, scales that had not seen sun for uncountable eons revealed as the land devoured itself. 

The ground opens in wounds of green, revealing what had once been sleeping, as large as the world itself. Death giving way to life in a cocoon, an egg, the lives of many given to give birth to one entity, a being caught between, given life amidst the stars.

QUIL. HI. i can't hop onto desktop and give u a response to the last message atm but i am reading chorus of dragons book 1 (ruin of kings? i don't keep the best track of names) and on like. somewhere around chapter 3 or 4 which isn't a lot but it is downright DELIGHTFUL it reminds me of the wondla series by tony diterlizzi in the tone and, in varying amounts, also the setting, this is SO COOL i LOVE NON-EARTH PLANETS. me whenever there are three moons in the sky biting and growling etc. me when THE NARRATORS ARE SHOWN AS REAL PEOPLE!!!!! i had to go back and reread upon realizing that rook/kihrin was one of the people in the very beginning, never let it be said that i pay close attention to anything, but oh man how wonderful. i love the characters they're so lively, and what a fun timeline!!! i'm like WHAT HAPPENED to this guy why is he suddenly enslaved but also a child what's up with his eyes was he Really abandoned on a trash heap why is he wearing not one but Two necklaces worth enough to employ an entire house for several years. Hello. also reminds me of feathers by jorge corona (a graphic novel)!!! it's just got that kind of tone!!!! very art deco in a sense. i love these kinds of books if my phone wasn't actively running out of battery i'd be reading it rn

WAIT REALLY?! You're reading it?! Oh FUCK yeah I'm so so excited. It is so delightful! There's so much going on and a lot of tension and really high stakes but my god Lyons knows how to make it enjoyable.

And the characters are so much so real people! Sometimes characters feel like they're made to suit a story, to fill a need in order to enact the overarching idea the author has instead of as an individual--which is a perfectly valid way to make a character! But oh my god when the characters are individuals before they're characters >>>> if you know what I mean. When they're their own people before they are in service to the plot, even though they are inseparable from it. It just adds this layer of complexity that I love because they feel so much more real--and then the story becomes so much more immersive because every action the characters take is motivated by their genuine human wants and needs and flaws

The timeline in book 1 is SO much fun, even though it can be confusing at times. I can tell you you're going to be asking questions for a while but that is part of the fun of the experience. It's genuinely some of the most fun I've had reading in a long time, so I hope you get some of that, too. Also, I know I've talked it up a lot, but if you decide it's not for you that's totally okay :)

I, unfortunately, haven't heard of either of the stories you compared it to, so I can only take your word for those. But!!! It seems to be a positive comparison, so perhaps I'll look into those--I say, as if I don't have the longest tbr ever in all of human history it feels like

I hope you can read more soon and I would LOVE to hear any and all thoughts you're willing to share. I fucking love this series so so much I'm genuinely so excited to see you reading it <33
