Ok I finished Disenchantment a couple days ago, and all I can think of is the "archdruidess x alva" ship (to the moon). Like they're literally living in my head rent free, I need to make something about them.

I don't even know why them specifically, but I guess It has to do with them being the only couple with a long consistent past.... Most likely.

Or maybe I just simp for the archdruidess... Who knows?

you post one clip containing a sapphic animated mermaid and tumblr marks your post mature

just realised this is most probably a reference to the SAG strikes

@prometheanpiero location: Temple of Saturn, Winter Festival notes: :) :)

It had been her curse for a long time to linger on the fringes, Nettelia had tried for a time to join in on these sorts of things. There had once been a time where she'd danced in Eden, when they observed the solstice, decorated their homes, lined the trees with ornaments, and howled under the light of the winter moon. It was lifetimes ago now, that woman hadn't existed in a long time. The nature changed but many of the festivities remained the same; as the wedding came to a close there were many eyes that were wet with memories and well wishes... Many whom Nettelia assumed didn't even know the couple. Still, there had been a great deal of wine so that coupled with the present Roman need for hope likely served as reason enough for people to celebrate, make merry, and rejoice.

She saw another lost soul and before Nettelia left the festivities for the night to retire elsewhere, the archdruidess moved to stand beside Prometheus. The Romans were tossing effigies into a great fire, letting go of pieces of the past and moving forward into the future. She had no desire to fight, to profess anything deep seeded or undying... The two had done enough of that already. Instead Nettelia just stood beside him, because there was some comfort in that act alone. "Have you made your offering yet?"

(I am currently watching gameplay of BG3) I think that I found NPC that is probably more despicablethan Astarion and Lae'zel together: Kagha the ArchDruidess

Oh yeah, she's a bitch.

But she's meant to be an antagonist so it doesn't bother me as much.

Listen to Natalie Sist's interview with Ellen Evert Hopman Master Herbalist and lay homeopath, who has been a Druidic initiate since 1984. She is a founding member and former co-Chief of the Order of the White Oak, the Archdruidess Emerita and founder of Tribe of the Oak, and a member of the Grey Council of Mages and Sages. She is the author of several books, including The Sacred Herbs of Samhain and Once Around the Sun. She lives in Massachusetts.

Ellen offers a deep dive into the world of ancient Druids, their rituals, gods, and deep connection with nature. She also provides practical guides on meditation, magical techniques, and creating personal rituals. It’s not just a book; it’s a journey to align with the rhythms of nature and uncover centuries-old wisdom.

Foolish people sat around and expected what they were owed to come due. That the world was fair, kind, and everyone was given what they were deserved in good time was a fantasy reserved for children in this age. Nettelia had never had a youth, but she'd grown up in a garden that doted on her. With a husband that loved her by virtue of her naivety, she'd had nothing but time to sit with her thoughts, how Prometheus might creep in and what he would think of her. They'd said a great deal to one another, and he'd seen more than Nettelia had ever allowed anyone else to purview. Unfair didn't begin to cover it, but if fairytales were still to be believed then she was no one's heroine, Nettelia was the creature that earned its due in death. A monster to be slain, the tragic hero to be repented and then dismissed. Solitude fit her like a blade in a sheath.

It had not happened slowly, one day Nettelia was simply changed. Like when water became ice, people would look at the frigid creature and wonder how anyone could have ever swam within.

"I lied to you." She admitted, deception was a comfortable game. Half truths peddled to her family, her friends, and her acolytes but on this occasion Nettelia had outdone herself. She had managed to tell a lie so complete that the archdruidess had also believed it. That petty, broken girl at the riverbed was too weak to carry on, and it was unfair to ask her to. Would she have been made a widow then maybe Nettelia could have just grieved as any sane person would, carried her shielded candle against a bracing window, but she could not move on. "I wanted to vanish so completely that even I wouldn't remember me. But everywhere I went, there I remained. I didn't release you for you, I released you for me: because I could not live without you." It was painfully true though that you could never find the same person twice, not even in the same person. "So tell me, Etheus, because I truly do not know: what in Eden's name could have led you to believe that I would ever have turned you in?"

The window was always open - that was a habit since Eden. A habit Prometheus didn't try to think related to the fact that he wanted to let the black bird arrive home however and whenever she pleased. The birds would sing outside the wooden window, the fey music played and the wind whistled through the trees. There was just city noise now, and Prometheus paid it no attention as he bent over a laptop. Face pale, finger thrumming on the table as he stared unseeing at the credits. Human beings could be monstrous, about as monstrous as the worst creatures in the Otherworld. They called this man, this bomb-maker, the American Prometheus and he was just one of so many humans that either facilitated or encouraged man-made horrors in this world. The avariel had led them there. He'd heard things, read things, but it was worse to see them. Prometheus could only imagine what it would be to live them. There were no words to describe the thoughts that haunted him at night anymore, the way his mind struggled to catch up to all he learned on a day-to-day basis. It was enough to keep him seated in place staring at nothing and trapped in a state in his mind for an hour uninterrupted. That's exactly what he might have done if not for the swift sound of wings behind him, ones that came from the open window.

His blood ran cold for one moment, thoughts of the Erinyes coming to the forefront. But as Prometheus turned it was not a bird there or just any woman. There was still the ghost of something stunned on his paled face, something that had been horrified. But as the avariel stood up to meet her and blinked it was gone. He looked at Nettelia as he might a fatal fate he couldn't escape and had since accepted. "Nothing," he breathed out. Ideal, she'd said. "You keep doing that." Prometheus murmured, as though half distracted as he turned away. "... Releasing me. It doesn't work that way." He wasn't actually sure what he was saying. Half the time, half his life now, he wasn't sure he was in his right mind. Like he was hanging from a thin, slippery rope and while he could reach up and climb try to gain some distance to the surface he was still... hanging. Still hovering over some dark abyss called insanity that called. "What did you think is the reason I thought you gave my name to the Gods?"

So uh, if the Archdruidess was sent specifically to lure Bean to Steamland, it stands to reason she was sent pretty recently (as in, not that long before the show’s events start recent). And in Season 1 someone quips that the religion is still in its early days so uh. Did she just make up the religion specifically to make life hell for Dreamlanders?

Also what’s up with Odval? What is his endgame? Since pretty obviously the whole “kill Zog and establish theocratic dictatorship” wasn’t.

It took me almost a week (ProCreate says 17hrs 20min), but I’m finally done with this fanart! Future posts about them, will only be updates of the comics, or comics themselves. I need another month of vacation!

Have a good day!<3<3<3

Archdruidess by Alexandra Albu

Archdruidess

[courtney-deserved-better]

this is so niche but like. i just finished part 3 of disenchantment and need to spitball a total drama au even though the show isnt done yet. spoilers and rambling below the cut.

okay so like gwen is bean. like she just gives me bean vibes i honestly cant see her being any other character. 

i think noah is luci though alejandro is a strong contender noah just seems more luci yknow? 

elfo I think could go in two directions. we could go the typical route and have cody be elfo bc he simps for gwen and all that but i think changing elfo’s personality/role in this au could allow courtney to be elfo. 

like elves are more stereotypically snooty and classy in this au and have strict rules and courtney very much sticks to the rules but maybe lady elves or just elves in general aren’t allowed to be as aggressive and driven as she is so she leaves them to carve a path for herself. 

so shes not as much of a pushover asl elfo but she’s very much a stickler for the rules and has a bit of a holier than thou attitude and is a bit stuck up

maybe shes also a princess and never mentions it because she leaves her throne behind and doesnt want to be bound to princess duties that get in the way of her doing what she wants to do yknow? and thats something she can hide from gwen but as time goes on and the elves come to dreamland (which should be called wawanakwa) gwen learns more about courtney’s princess past and they bond over it. 

if we go the route with courtney then mora doesnt really exist in this au bc im gwourtney trash and that aint changing anytime soon. 

but it takes a while for gwen and courtney to like each other. courtney and noah also clash but noah and gwen get along pretty well. 

also noah looks like his usual self but can turn into pretty much what luci looks like when he wants to because magic demon powers and bc I love luci’s appearance so much (girl help i have gender envy for a fucking cartoon demon)

as for zog, derek, and oona, we’re gonna change them into sibling roles. lets say gwen’s dad, the king, had a lot of queens who all died after bearing him a child so gwen has a bunch of half siblings. and her dad is dead too. its the curse of zog or whatever it is in canon.

maybe cody could be derek (gwen does say he reminds her of an annoying little brother) and owen can be zog, and he rules with izzy as his queen, though it was an arranged marriage and izzy eventually divorces him to become a pirate queen like oona

and dagmar’s role can be gwen’s oldest sister, heather, who got turned to stone when gwen was younger and having only brothers and a crazy sister in law gwen idealizes heather as this great older sister despite barely remembering her. heather uses that to her advantage because she’s evil and once gwen finds that out they really dont get along (like dagmar and bean in canon)

owen is obsessed with the immortality pendant to bring his sister back to life after their drinks got switched not realizing that heather was trying to kill him so she could take the throne

i think chris should be odval bc he and bean have a hilarious dynamic that could totally be replicated with gwen and chris. and if chris has a gay wizard lover it HAS to be chef. chef is sorcerio

justin is merkimer. like really nobody else could be merkimer

trent is pendergast (my beloved) and turbish and mertz can be some hapless interns or maybe someone from a later cast, like spud and rock (that would actually be so funny spud can absolutely be turbish)

blaineley is the archdruidess of course

i dont know where alejandro fits in bc of course hes gonna be noah’s love interest but luci didn’t really have any love interests (except for kissy for a hot second but idc ab that) but i do think it would be funny if the usually unflappable demon noah suddenly has a crush on some handsome guy and is trying to hide it from his friends but hes terrible at it and gwen and courtney are teasing him 24/7 ab it. and noah is sad because alejandro would never want to date a demon if he knew what he really was but psych alejandro is a demon too. that’d be a great arc

i think beth would make a sweet bunty

and poor lindsay could be jerry! idk about becky and cloyd though… or the gunderson brothers… def need to know more about the last two before casting them

ok im crashing now but this is definitely gonna be something i revisit in the future. probably won’t post any fics until season 4 comes out so i know the full story before writing… 

harold as the jester though
