If you get tagged, reblog with roughly 100 words of a WIP. No explanation, just the snippet.
"What is your relationship to Dumbledore right now?" he asks instead. It’s best he gets some answers too, and this seems like the most vital topic.
"There is no relationship. We are enemies."
Sirius raises his brow at that. The tone Gellert uses when talking about Dumbledore is perfectly neutral. Too neutral.
"What happened to them all – James, his wife and Harry?" Gellert continues his own line of questioning.
"He died. She died too. Harry still lives."
"Interesting."
Sirius grinds his teeth. "I appreciate my loss is of interest to you."
Gellerts shrugs. "You’re an interesting man."
"My turn. Are you looking for the Elder Wand?"
Tagging @gracelesslady23 @lovelymasks @lilacella and anyone who wants to do this!

The Worgen are officially returning to Gilneas in Patch 10.2.5: Seeds of Renewal!
Love Worgen so I hope this will be great! I'm not sure what it's going to look like in-game, probably no new capital city, but I hope it at least ends up actually visibly populated. If it does, one thing I'm hoping for from this is that there will end up being a sizeable Night Elf presence when it's rebuilt, maybe in the Blackwald or the woods near the Greymane Wall. Just something to show the bond between the two still going, you know?

hello! 👋 first, i wanted to say that i enjoyed cardamon island a lot. i wish more people were into islands with no terraforming
second, i wanted to ask why red roses specifically? wouldn't black cosmos be a more obvious choice for such aesthetic? i'm sorry if it sounds like i'm trying to give advice no one asked for 🙇‍♀️ i'm just curios, that's all
Hello! I'm glad you liked it :) I do agree that black flowers would work better there, but that area is kind of a reference to the Blackwald, Gilneas (zone from WoW). As you can see from pictures below, there are dark grey and red grass with roses here and there. I tried to replicate it as natural as possible, without using too much of custom design. I think it will look closer to what it should be in the end of November, before snow will cover everything and when grass will be grey. I was thinking about putting more decayed trees and less flowers and maybe I'll try to rearrange things later, but I doubt it will work out since that area is not so big and every tree takes 2x2 squares. Anyways, that's the reason :)

Okay so please please please please listen to Twilight Force!
Quick infodump: they're a band based on your typical fantasy rpg's. Everything is in the Twilight Kingdoms (you can actually find it on world anvil) and the band itself is the Twilight Force. 6 crystal bearers destined to save the Twilight Kingdoms. Not all songs are about them tho. A lot of songs are actually about myths and history of the kingdoms.
Every member of the Twilight Force comes from a different kingdom. You have:
Blackwald: pretty much the leader. He's the one who came across the prophecies and united the crystal bearers. He's a necromancer warlock and he plays keyboards and is the main songwriter and pretty much the brains behind the band. He's also the narrator
Lynd: half high elf rogue. He's raised in an orphanage, and after getting out, he joined a thieves' guild. These days he is 1 with the shadows. He's lead guitarist, does orchestrations and song writing. Is the second mastermind behind the band, but stays more in the background.
Allyon: human fighter, doesn't have any backstory published yet. He's the singer and Italian. Replacement of Chrileon, the previous singer
Aerendir: half wood elf ranger. He's an orphan(?) raised by humans by the seas. The calling of the forest became stronger and stronger until he ran away to the forest (sounds familiar? Yes, he's all my characters). He plays rhythm guitar, acoustic guitar and did vocals on 1 song.
Born: hermit druid! Hermit druid! He's the bassist! He looks like a hobbit!
De'ash: eldritch being that steals souls. He's the drummer. He's actually not the first drummer in the band, but they kept the character.
Sorry for the huge infodump but they're just huge nerds and have honestly interesting lore!
i can tell you sat writing this for ages very excitedly

To visit a friend
The forest groaned and creaked in the wind, foreshadowing the coming storm. The Gilnean, who was wrapped in bandages and dark leathers, sighed and glanced at the sky. He pulled up his hood and returned to his weary march through the Blackwald. Every step down the hill made him wince, the pain in his side threatening to bring forth his wolf. His foot slipped on a wet rock and he stepped down a little too hard causing him to grunt, his eyes flashed orange and teeth elongated. His form seemed to ripple; he took several deep breaths and leaned against a nearby tree. Opening a pouch on his hip he pulled out some Peacebloom, a simple herb to help with the pain, and chewed it slowly, he knew he needed to save his magic. His wounds could wait.
As his breath steadied, the fur receded and his eyes returned to their normal hue. He glared up toward the sky as the first drop of rain hit him square in the eye. He growled and pulled his cloak tight then resumed his slow march into the forest. The ground finally leveled out and patches of red started to appear on the forest floor. He was getting close. The next bend brought him to a glade where a gigantic tree crowned the forest. "Almost there," he grunted, "Tal'doren looks well enough after all this time." As he neared the tree, he could feel his emotions calm and some of his weariness melt away. The tree seemed to still have a soothing effect on his wolf.
His stride quickened as the tree eased his pain, he walked around the base of the tree towards the back and swiftly hobbled up a small hill. At the top he stopped and knelt down at a mound of earth, a marker stood at one end. He took a deep breath, the rain almost sensing what was to come started to fall harder, a soft chorus, a background to words of grief.
"Hello Lys," he choked, "We finally did it. We cleared the city, Gilneas is ours, we have a home again." He paused and took a shuddering breath, tears streaming down his face into his beard. "I don't know what happened to the others. Many fell, lost to battles, both physical and mental. I almost lost myself after you..." he paused to wipe the tears away. "After you fell I was lost, I missed my friend...I miss my friend." He continued on, pain in his voice, "I never thought we would be home, I never thought I'd be able to visit you again." He paused for a long time, the sky weeping as he was. “I hoped I would be able to choke up chunks of my own sins, tell you of all that transpired since that day. Now that I’m here I don’t know what to say except I’m so sorry.” He closed his eyes and wept silently.
After some time he softly spoke again "I brought you a gift." He reached into his pack and pulled out a folded tabard with a rose on top. "The Hounds have all but disbanded, this is the last piece I could find of them and I felt it was right to bring it here to rest with you. It’s the only place I could think of that would be peaceful enough to ease the pain." He laid the tabard down and stuck the rose into the ground to the side of the grave. Whispering softly, he reached out and touched the rose, using what druidic magic he had left he asked it to grow. Moments later there was a large rose bush next to the grave, flowers of all colors blooming in the rain. "I haven't used the Gift in years, this is all I have left after the battle." Clutching his side the pain spiked, he couldn't hold the wolf back anymore. The change was swift, and with a growling voice he spoke, "I know I should take better care, I needed to save what magic I had left for your gift. Don't worry, I'll recover and return soon to tend the roses. I'm glad to be home." He paused as he struggled to choke out the words, "I wish you were here."
With a final deep breath he let out a howl, full of all the pain and rage and grief. As his voice gave out, he could hear throughout the forest, wolves were responding. Wide eyes looked around and his hands came to his face as he wept.

Ciao a tutti ragazzi/e!
Mi chiamo Bookie e sono un amante dei libri, dei videogiochi e degli horror.
Sono una scrittrice per passione e ho deciso di pubblicare qui su Tumbler il romanzo a cui sto lavorando.
Ma su cosa si basa questo mio romanzo?
Bene, è una specie di... tributo, se vogliamo definirlo così, alla mia band metal preferita: i "Twilight Force".
Il mio romanzo è il primo fi una lunga serie che ho in mente nella quale romanzo le loro canzoni e i loro album e do vita ai luoghi in esse accennati e alle battaglie che vi prendono luogo.
.................................................................
Ma come ho strutturato la cosa?
Ogni romanzo si basa su una canzone o una track all'interno di un album e le ogni serie si basa sull'album stesso.
Cosa vuol dire?
Vuol dire che:
Se scrivo un romanzo basato su una canzone presente in un determinato album, la serie che ne segue segue l'arco narrativo dell'album scelto.
Esempio pratico:
Il mio primo romanzo è basato sulla canzone "Enchanted Dragon of Wysdom", brano appartenente all'album "Tales of Ancient Profecies", che è il primo album della band, quindi la serie seguirà l'arco narrativo dell'album.
.................................................................
Ogni serie basa il proprio numero di libri sul numero di brani o track presenti nell'album stesso, ciò vuol dire che se in un album ci sono 8 canzoni/track la serie sarà composta da 8 libri.
.................................................................
Dato che gli album sono interconessi fra di loro anche le serie lo sono, quindi nasce una collana, ossia (nel mio caso) un insieme di serie che coesistono tra fra loro.
.................................................................
Ma chi sono i Twilightforce e perché mi hanno ispirato così tanto?
Sono un gruppo che canta di tutto ciò che è fantasy e ogni canzone e album narra una storia nella quale i protagonisti sono interpretati dai membri stessi della band.
Sono la mia fonte di ispirazione perché è grazie a loro che sono stata introdotta al fantasy come genere letterario e al metal come musica e da allora sono sempre nella mia playlist.
.................................................................
Chi sono i membri della band o meglio, i protagonisti di questo mio romanzo?
I membri principali sono (li chiamo con il nome del loro personaggio):
• Blackwald: un negromante che è stato esiliato da una biblioteca/fortezza magica per eresia.
• Lynd: un mezzo elfo che è stato abbandonato in orfanotrofio dopo essere stato il risultato di una relazione proibita.
• Aerendir: elfo orfano cresciuto in un villaggio di umani che cerca la sua identità perduta.
• Born: un druido appartenente all'Ordine della Quercia, la più influente gilda di druidi esistente.
• De'Azsh: una creatura misteriosa chiamata anche "Cercatore di Anime".
Loro cinque sono rispettivamente:
• Blackwald -> tastierista/voce narrante
• Lynd: 1°a chitarra
• Aerendir: 2°a chitara
• Born: Bassista
• De'Azsh: Batterista.
A loro cinque si aggiungo i due cantanti che la band ha avuto nel corso degli anni.
• Crhileon: un guerriero il cui destino è diventare re di una terra lontana.
• Allyon: uno straniero proveniente da un regno lontano.
Allyon ha sostituito Crhileon ed è l'attuale cantante dei Twilight Force.
.................................................................
Questo è tutto ciò che volevo dirvi e farvi sapere per quanto riguarda il romanzo.
Se poi siete curiosi di saperne di più commentate e farò del mio meglio per rispondervi.
.................................................................
Detto questo io vi saluto e ci vedremo nel prossimo post dove pubblicherò il 1° capitolo della storia.
Io sono anche su Wattpad e su Instagram e il mio nome in entrambi i social e il nome del mio profilo qui su Tumbler.
Bookie è un nomignolo così.

Out of time chapter 2 is out! Sirius Black/Gellert Grindelwald. Rating: E. Read it on AO3.
"There, there, Sirius. I asked you a simple question. If you don't wish to answer, that is your decision. But I won't give you any more pleasure tonight, unless you cooperate. So, which is it?"
Sirius bites the inside of his cheek, because fuck if he's going to tell anything else to Gellert Grindelwald.

"And, my friend… I, unbeknownst to me until the last full moon, is the last crystal bearer. That is why I now, in the eleventh hours, come to you. I must seek out the bearers, and the crystals must be unearthed. And you, must in return fulfill your oaths. The Knights of Twilight’s Might must gather and rise."
~Blackwald; Epilogue, Heroes of Mighty Magic
---
* Previous Twilight Force tribute (please check the image description for more info about this project and the band I'm making these tributes for): https://xarcahn.deviantart.com/…/The-Crystal-Bearers-Aerend…
---
My second work in my planned series of tributes for "Adventure Metal" band Twilight Force: this time featuring Blackwald, the "Dark Sorcery Guy", as I like to call him, although I believe his more proper title is "Warlock". 😛Some people argue that he's a necromancer as well, taking in consideration all the skulls and skeleton-parts which are often seen as part of his stage clothes and props. 💀 And the theory that his particular practice of sorcery could be perceived as something rather dark would be strengthened by this excerpt (from the same epilogue the above quote was taken from) as well:
"And now, they have abolished me! The Arcane Tribunal deemed my studies... wretched and vile! Curse them! Let the wrath of the Netherrealm be upon their creaking bones! I have not devoted my life to mundane sorcery to please cowards and weaklings!"
In the "real" boring world though--- Blackwald's band role is to play keyboards, as well as do the occasional narration for some songs. He's also one of the co-founders and songwriters, and always grace the stage with his dark ominous presence. ;P I tried here to replicate his stage clothes as much as possible, while adding a few features of my own, like the skull designs on his boots.
Hope you'll enjoy, everyone, and as usual--- a Find-The-Items-Challenge for y'all:
* Find the Unicorn Horn 🦄
* Find the G-clef 🎼
* Find the signature "D. U. D." ⚜️
--- Technique: Digitally painted from scratch Tools: Photoshop CS4, Photoshop CC, Wacom tablet and Wacom Cintiq Mobile Studio Pro Original resolution: 6476x8780 pixels Time taken: okay, so I forgot to log it ._.

Watch me listen to a 10 minute epic with additional vocals by an opera singer and lots of narration about how Blackwald was sentenced by the Arcane Tribunal for doing necromancy. He got thrown out of his college :( but then he came across a prophecy which made him find the other members of the Twilight Force
I'm... It's a good song
it sounds good 👍
