Was Pym's story about Ultima Thule a reference to Longfellow and/ or theosophy (the hollow earth and the giant were in the book iirc) or was Pym into some weird esoteric nazi stuff? Because they've co-opted a lot that.
"Ultima Thule" is the name of the most celebrated image of Edgar Allan Poe that exists today:
Tumblr media
Sarah Helen Whitman coined the name “Ultima Thule” for this famous daguerreotype, from Poe’s poem “Dream-Land”:
“I have reached these lands but newly From an ultimate dim Thule — From a wild weird clime that lieth, sublime Out of SPACE — out of TIME.”
"Ultima Thule" is Latin and means “extreme limits of travel and discovery.” The hollow earth and all of that were taken directly from Poe's The Narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym of Nantucket, and were popular theories back in the 1800s, which I'm sure is why Poe included them. But no, no weird esoteric nazi stuff, but I'm amazed and disturbed that people still take those insane, debunked, old theories so seriously today.

[ day 10 : promise ]
Persephone reappeared before the Ragnarok. Her right arm hung limply at her side, her left clutching her ribs where she knew blood still oozed out of a particularly nasty gash. She lifted her eyes; she saw the scions gathered at the ship in various states of distress but seeming to be unharmed. And just a little ways from them, she saw her husbands, whole and hale and still there. It was worth it, it was all... It was all... She staggered forward, unable to stop her smile as pained as it was, just as Hades caught sight of her and moved towards her in turn, Hythlodaeus on his heels. Persephone managed only a few more steps before her legs gave out, tumbling forward just as Hades reached her, catching her just in time and holding her close in his lap. "I thought," Hades began, his every word strained, "that you said we would stay together from now on." His words were scolding, but she could see the fear on his face and wished she could muster the energy to reach out to touch him. Alas, now that she was safe her body seemed to have decided it was done pushing past limits. "I know," she smiled ruefully at him. "I'm sorry. I promise I won't do it again."

FFXIV Write 2024: 2 Horizon
Tumblr media
(Endwalker 6.0, in a specific named place on the final zone map. Uses lines of NPC & player dialogue. 350ish words.)
She had given up everyone and everything to get here—and it still wasn’t enough.
The whispers of her family, friends, allies, swirled in her head, their hopes and prayers, encouragement and urging. She couldn’t disappoint them, even as tears stung her eyes.
She had thought herself drained of tears by this point.
She could almost imagine the steady presence of Ardbert at her back, the weight of his hands on her shoulders. That part of him inside her soul kept fighting, cheering, pushing her forward.
All she could see were stars.
Broken and burning, dimming and darkened, they filled the twisted skies and far distances of space.
And above the egg loomed. Just out of reach.
No one remained but her. The others' determined hopes swirled in the air around her, formed the very ground under her feet. What she could use was their council, their ideas.
Them.
But only Meteion waited, her slim form breaking the barren line of this absolute horizon.
“Come, let me relieve you of your burden. You have suffered enough.”
Azem’s crystal was in her hand. It was all she had left. Her ancestor’s magic, and what remained of Hydaelyn’s. Yet if she used it to call her friends back, then it would undo all their progress to even reach this point and they would be further away…
“...and another who may yet have a part to play. Though that will depend on you.”
Among the many words she recalled, Hydaelyn’s in Labyrinthos came, segueing into memories of Elpis itself, that first flower leading there, to the revelations of this beginning, to Kairos…
The thing about horizons was they only seemed to be a definitive line. But in the common language, the word also meant a range of perceptions and experiences, about attaining something previously thought to be out of reach.
“I won’t forsake our cause.”
She still had the crystal. She had her experiences, her knowledge, her memories of her comrades.
“I’ll reach you! I’ll find a way!”
She was not out of options.
Light rose over that final horizon.

Lalapril 2024 🖤 Day 10: Silence
“Meteion, I have crossed the universe to find you. I have seen the profound despair that you found on every star you encountered on your journey, felt the pain of the millions of lives screaming out for oblivion, heard the echoes of the deafening silence of this place. And you know what? The song of hope is alive, even if you can’t hear it. I’m not going to give up on you, I won’t leave you here alone. Please, Meteion, come home…” ~ Hali
