Caspian Sinclair the City Mage

Appearance: 5'8, stocky build, tanned skin and hazel eyes, dark brown hair that falls to the shoulders, held back in a ponytail with a ribbon, trimmed facial hair

Caspian is the first person you meet in the City of Lost Silver. Upon noticing you're a new arrival, he offers his help and advice for how to make a life here. He's stoic, with a distant and almost professional kindness that offers you more insight into the city than you could imagine. He abides to the Code of Mages to protect the last city of the known world, and anything that wishes to destroy it. Underneath his stoic demeanor is a desperation to keep the world afloat and reckless hope in the Old Gods' return. His vast knowledge of the City, the Old Gods, and the Royal Family serves as a great resource to you. But should he discover your plans to steal the Silver Fruit and bring the world to an end, he'll kill you without hesitation or remorse.

Pantheon: The Old God of Knowledge

Symbols: Bowed head, bound hands, alchemy sigils, whispering secrets in the dark, a star going out

@luposcainus sent: “ i can’t do this. “

Daenerys looked at Caspian confused for a moment when he said he couldn't do it. "Why do you think you can't do this?" She questioned trying to support the man she had come to known as friend. Sure there was always challenges in life, but facing a crowd was hardly something to be scared of. "You can do this, Caspian. You just need to believe in yourself."

"What do you want?!"

You screamed with tears still streaming down your cheeks. Realization hit you in that moment.

"What- what did you do to him?"

Ursula's head and torso rose from the water.

"He could never be happy with you, (Y/N). Not really," she hissed.

"You just don't want his curse to be broken," you pointed an accusatory finger at the witch.

"We're so close, and it kills you," you sneered.

Ursula let a tentacle emerge to slap the water at this.

"Watch it, you horrid little damsel. It doesn't matter what you do. He'll never be free from his curse. Unless...," the suckers of her tentacles undulated.

The sight made you shiver.

"Unless someone were to prove their undying love for the prince."

You narrowed your eyes at her ghastly face.

"How?"

Ursula smirked. Time for the show. She lifted herself from the water completely, her tentacles dripping. She brought up her arms in rapture. Dark, menacing thunder clouds formed in the sky, and a gushing wind suddenly threatened your balance on the plank. You struggled to keep your eyes on her, your hair whipping in your face.

"Winds of the Caspian Sea,

Come forth to me.

Reveal a love that be,

Buried by depths of the sea," she sang.

You looked down at the water. She wanted you to go back? No, that couldn't be right. There has to be a catch. She wouldn't let you off that easy.

"All you have to do is walk the plank, my dear. Your fin is gone and you won't be able to breathe. You'll drown," she cooed.

You shivered at her words.

"I- I can't," you managed.

Your throat tightened.

"You can. Death is the easy part, love. You'll be free from this hurt; free from this pain. The prince will be happy with you while he's at sea, but, when he returns home? Forget about it. You'll be the last thing he wants. A constant reminder of his prison. What greater way to show your love than sacrificing yourself for his freedom?"

The gears turned in your mind. Even though you were a mermaid yourself, the witch's siren song and sweet, sticky words were hard to ignore. You tried to shake the thoughts from your head, but they wouldn't leave. You could sacrifice yourself. It would be an ultimate act of love to break Eric's curse. What did you really think? That this would be a fairytale with a happy ending? Those weren't real. Not in this world. You've lived through enough harsh pain to know that.

"What would happen?"

You suddenly spoke, looking up at her dark form.

"Eric would be free?"

Ursula's cheshire grin almost split her cheeks.

"Yes. Yes, my child. The prince will be free from his curse. Free to return home."

You closed your eyes for a moment in all the chaos, your hair and dress continuously slapping in the wind. Was this how it ended? This had been a thrilling adventure that you never asked for. This experience had made you feel more alive than you had in years. Maybe it was meant to be this way. Maybe you were meant to sacrifice yourself.

Nodding your head, a decision came to the forefront of your mind. You kept your eyes closed, but opened your mouth slowly, letting your siren song peel from your throat. It would be the last time you would ever sing it. The beautiful tune carried through the island air, gracing everyone's ears. Everyone turned to look towards the sound in wonder - even Grimsby.

All but Eric. The moment that the melody hit his eardrums, flashes of his home played out before his very eyes. The Sardinian beaches he'd walked as a child. The market and vendors he knew like the back of his hand. His mother, the Queen, and his dog, Max. Everything was so crisp and clear. Then came the flood of you. Your bright smile and your beautiful hair. The image of your skin erupted with gooseflesh under Eric's fingers. You standing in the rain. All of a sudden, a huge wave of emotion slammed into Eric's chest. He almost doubled over from the sensation. He heard your words next, like they were whispered in his ear.

"Go on and be free,

For me, my love, for me.

As your fingers graze the sand,

Envision my heart, and my hand.

I love yo-."

Ursula's tentacle slapped over your mouth before you finished your last word.

⋅.˳˳.⋅ॱ˙˙ॱ⋅.˳˳.⋅ॱ˙˙ॱᐧ.˳˳.⋅⋅.˳˳.⋅ॱ˙˙ॱ⋅.˳˳.⋅ॱ˙˙ॱᐧ.˳˳.⋅

Eric felt the hairs on the back of his neck stand tall.

"(Y/N)!"

He immediately took off towards his ship.

⋅.˳˳.⋅ॱ˙˙ॱ⋅.˳˳.⋅ॱ˙˙ॱᐧ.˳˳.⋅⋅.˳˳.⋅ॱ˙˙ॱ⋅.˳˳.⋅ॱ˙˙ॱᐧ.˳˳.⋅

"No! You wretched little wench. What did you do?!"

Ursula screamed at you before letting all her tentacles coil around your body, plummetting you into the water. She propelled you down, further and further, until your back smacked the solid ocean floor. There was no give. You tasted blood in your mouth. Ursula's tentacles came to wrap around your neck, squeezing tightly. You thrashed for a moment before trying to urge your muscles to relax. It was so hard when your lungs were screaming for air. Black spots appeared in your vision. You opened your mouth, letting the water seep in. You were slipping into unconsciousness.

⋅.˳˳.⋅ॱ˙˙ॱ⋅.˳˳.⋅ॱ˙˙ॱᐧ.˳˳.⋅⋅.˳˳.⋅ॱ˙˙ॱ⋅.˳˳.⋅ॱ˙˙ॱᐧ.˳˳.⋅

Eric ran up on the deck, almost throwing himself over the side in search of you. He ran back and forth to both ends of the ship watching the water. He saw shadows, a mix of purple and green, but they were everywhere. He couldn't pinpoint where exactly they came from. Eric didn't know what to do, so he dove in. He couldn't lose the one person he'd connected with after all these years. He couldn't lose you.

⋅.˳˳.⋅ॱ˙˙ॱ⋅.˳˳.⋅ॱ˙˙ॱᐧ.˳˳.⋅⋅.˳˳.⋅ॱ˙˙ॱ⋅.˳˳.⋅ॱ˙˙ॱᐧ.˳˳.⋅

Back below the water, Ursula watched the life leaving your eyes. A wicked cackle ripped through her. It wasn't until a trident pierced her abdomen that Ursula stopped laughing. Loosening her tentacles around you, she stared down at the blades sticking out of her flesh. Your lifeless form slunk to the side on the ground. She turned slightly, angling her head.

"Brother," she hissed. "I should have known. Only you would do something so cowardly."

Your father's face was as hard as steel.

"You don't mess with my daughters and live to tell the tale, Ursula," he bellowed.

Ursula's eyes held Triton's with as much hate as she could muster before rolling back in her head. Her mouth fell open and her body went rigid. Leaving his trident for now, your father swam to you. Picking you up from the ocean floor and smoothing your hair out of your face, the king's eyes tried to tear. Placing his hand on your heart, Triton closed his eyes and concentrated. There may still be hope that you weren't completely gone. After a beat of silence in the water, your legs morphed back to your fin.

⋅.˳˳.⋅ॱ˙˙ॱ⋅.˳˳.⋅ॱ˙˙ॱᐧ.˳˳.⋅⋅.˳˳.⋅ॱ˙˙ॱ⋅.˳˳.⋅ॱ˙˙ॱᐧ.˳˳.⋅

Eric swam as hard as he could. He dove under multiple times, holding his breath until his lungs felt like they would burst, and he had to resurface. Shaking the water from his hair, Eric yelled out in desperation. He couldn't find you. He couldn't find you anywhere. It was too dark to see down there and although the colored smoke had stopped, the water remained incredibly cloudy. There were some points where Eric couldn't see his limbs in front of him. He tried to persevere. He tried to keep going, to no avail.

Grimsby had snapped out of his trance and rushed back to the ship as well. Spotting Eric diving off the side of the ship, Grimsby ran to the starboard side, yelling his concerns. Eric ignored them until he couldn't anymore. Grimsby threw Eric a life raft, which he reluctantly accepted. The thoughts clawing inside his mind wouldn't let up.

He'd failed you. You sacrificed yourself for him - to break his curse. Eric never wanted it to be this way. He never wanted to lose you. It turns out that you could find home in another person. He had envisioned returning to his real home again with you by his side. The thought of returning to it now felt empty.

[promptuarium]

SALAH, son of Arphaxad, when he was thirty years old, begat Heber, and afterwards he lived 403 years, during which time he begat many sons and daughters. See Genesis ch. 11. From this Salah, according to Josephus, the Sarmatians arose, from whom the region of Sarmatica gets its name, of which there are two, one in Europe, and the other, which we call Tartary, lies in Asia Major. It is this Asian Sarmatia which gets the name of Sarmatia from Salah. Now this region is considered to be deserted and unknown, but three very famous cities were once founded there, namely Hermonasa, Oenantia, and Tyramba. There are others who write that the Caucasus mountains are in this province, whose entrances are called Caspian by some (though they are wrong, and led into great error). See Ptolemy books 3 and 5.

[sleepy-teacup]

I thought to share my more recent piece I finished not too long ago. This time it is of my CH oc I made a while back I have dubbed as a Sky Maiden for this takes. This is an ideal look for an AU I'm brainstorming with a friend over on Discord. She is based on sea salt ice cream (one of my favorites), as well as konpeitō star candy known in Japan.

I drew her as a mermaid too, but thought to show this cloud version of her. If y'all have questions or like to know more about them, fire away.

--Info--

Name: Sea Salt Tea

Age: 18

Species: Porcelain Teacup

Likes: Colors, playing her flute, stars, Quill, flying

Dislikes: Bitterness, too much silence, evil wizards, the color gray, the Capital

Skills: Air magic, making the color blue

--Facts--

- The 6th of the 8 Sky Maidens which are her sisters.

- With her sisters, they are able to make a rainbow. With Sea making the blue a portion of the rainbow.

- Engaged to Quill who she loves so much. (A dear friend's oc)

- Has a soft spot for babies and young children, including baby animals.

- She has her baby brother, Caspian to whom she adores and takes him out flying with her above the ocean and clouds. (I don't dare part with him.)

- She's a mermaid in her original AU

- She is able to make star candy among other sweets, so long as she has all the ingredients she needs.

- Because of her love for music and singing, it attracted the attention of the evil wizard Soulton known at the Capital located in the Wing Islands. And became infatuated with her.

- She is friends with the Cup Bros who safely returned Caspian to her when he got separated from her while wandering off with Sea looking for him.

- Her magic manifests within the star candy she makes and the color she creates for the next coming rainbow. (Since blue represents sadness, I thought for her to help others open up about their true feelings and help them get their tears out.)

Hope y'all enjoy! 💌

Reepicheep & The Wave

I was inspired by this gifset, and I wanted to make my own post just in case the gifmaker (@scottmalloy) wouldn't appreciate a bunch of meta in their notifications 😅

Honestly I think the movie did really well in translating this moment to the screen. The scene in the book grounds you in the perspective of the human characters: Reepicheep disappears over the edge of the wave. This emphasizes that he's going to a beautiful place, but one that the kids aren't able to understand yet. However, the book has the advantage of 3rd person narration. When C.S. Lewis presents the image to his reader, he can give mood and the visuals as one: "[the wave] was a smooth green slope. The coracle went more and more quickly, and beautifully it rushed up the wave's side" (Voyage of the Dawn Treader [VotDT], chapter 16). Lewis can tell us the motion was 'beautiful,' but the movie has to convince us to find it beautiful.

However, the movie has the advantage of being able to take us along with Reepicheep without needing to describe what he's seeing. The water rushing under his boat & towards the screen (4th gif) gives that sense of "more and more quickly...it rushed up the wave," but our ability to empathize with his sweet little Mouse face facial expression (5th gif) is what really solidifies that poignant 'beauty' from the book.

That visual of the Pevensies and Caspian in the background (gifs 4 & 5) achieves the same effect of the book's final image of Reepicheep. There's a feeling of mounting adventure & happiness, and then a moment of quiet wonder when he disappears into a place the reader/viewer can't go. The movie gets this feeling by having the audience rise up the wave with Reep, then come to a slow stop as he passes us by. We see the humans through the spray and realize we're still in their shoes. Meanwhile, the book utilizes the power of 3rd person narration by having Reepicheep slip beyond the reach of the story: "For one split second they saw [the coracle's] shape and Reepicheep's on the very top. Then it vanished, and since that moment no one can truly claim to have seen Reepicheep the Mouse" (VotDT, ch. 16).

In the movie, the mist from the wave, the faint rainbow inside, the vibrant colors of the water, & the image of Reepicheep's smile give us that "moment of quiet wonder" that I mentioned before. Lewis, on the other hand, tells us: "...since that moment no one can truly claim to have seen Reepicheep the Mouse. But my belief is that he came safe to Aslan's country and is alive there to this day" (ch. 16).

PS. The thing that got me excited about this gifset in the first place is the sword in gif 1! This visual appears in the book: "Then [Reepicheep] took off his sword ('I shall need it no more,' he said) and flung it far...Where it fell it stood upright with the hilt above the surface" (ch. 16). The sword-in-the-ground symbol pops up across history and can have various meanings. However, one meaning is that the sword alludes to the Christian cross (✝️). I bet this sword/cross symbol is what Lewis (and the VotDT movie) were referencing. This symbol can be interpreted as a sign of peace, since a sword in the ground is a weapon with its dangerous side 'buried'/set aside.

Again, I like how the movie translates this image. The poignance of this moment in the book comes from the chapter's overall tone. For example, here's a line that precedes Reep throwing the sword: "everything now felt as if it had been fated or had happened before" (ch. 16). Meanwhile, the movie emphasizes the poignance by contrasting Reep's casual discarding of the weapon ("I won't be needing this," gif 1) with the hugeness of the scene overall.

[unkipt]

I had a list, so while I'm on break, have some more!!!!

Mcytblr ask game questions: 13, 16, 17, 18.

I get very bored, as you can probably tell.

part 2!

13- Any segment of your work that made you cry while writing it? (because it moved you deeply)

oh this one is hard, i have a really bad memory. i'd probably say top three are ch 6 of wf, which is the one where we see rae erase his memories and jamie, centross, and a very confused caspian have to help him get them back, the end of ch 25 of wf, where they're in a rush trying to leave and caspian breaks through to rae, or the end of ch 8 of rr, when end duo has their angsty lil fight about family. really just heavy emotional moments i think, i'm fairly empathetic so i really get into it when i'm writing that kinda stuff

16- What do you think is the signature aspect of your work? What do you think readers see and go "Ah of course! [Writer] made this!"

i have no idea honestly. i've had people say they like my writing style (which is lowkey insane to me) but i don't know if i could list anything specific that makes it my style. idk maybe you can answer this one for me lol

17- Favorite dynamic to write? (ship, familial bond, friendship, qpr, rivalry, etc)

End duo!! ok specifically, friendships/familial bonds, i love being able to write about types of love other than romantic, because i'm aroace so i don't really experience romantic love. i like being able to explore the many layers and nuances to a deep friendship because i'm lucky to have those types of relationships in my life and i think they're neat

18- How similar are the things you enjoy writing to the things you enjoy reading?

my favourite genre growing up was sci-fi fantasy. you tell me. really i love getting to mess around with fantasy worlds, magic or no, getting to build a world up from the ground up is so neat, and i mentioned in the last ask that i enjoy warping pieces of history into my worlds, because i always loved being able to pick of bits of fact in fantasy stories growing up. so to put it short, yeah i write stuff thats pretty similar to what i enjoy reading. i am primarily writing it for my own enjoyment after all.

snippet from lines in the sand:

Reyna hesitates, and Nico leans against the doorframe, crossing his arms. "It's probably weird," she says softly, "But I miss being on the road." "I don't miss the constant near-death experiences," Nico says, "But yeah." Reyna nods. Her hair is tied loosely back and there are worry lines etched into her face. Nico sighs, his gaze straying to the porch rafters. A bird hops around the beginnings of a nest in the shadows.

WIP Wednesday Game

It’s WIP Wednesday, time for a little accountability, sharing your work, and getting a kick in the pants.

Here’s how it works:

In a reblog of this post (so people can find you in the notes) or new thread (w/ rules attached) if you want to play on your own, post up to five (5) filenames of your WIPs; not titles, file names.

Post a snippet from one of them. Snippet must be words you wrote in the last 7 days. We’re posting progress here. If you haven’t made any, go make some and come back to play!

After you’ve posted, people can send you an ask with one of your file names. You must then write 3 sentences in that file. If the filename is one you can't share from (for example, an event or gift fic), write 3 sentences on it anyway, and then 3 more on another to share.

That’s it! You can invite others to join in, or just post. I’ll be searching the reblogs to find people to send asks to!

If you’re reading this, you’re invited!

If you see someone posting a WIP Wednesday Game snippet, send them an ask! Make them write.

Requested/Friend event mentions under the cut! If you'd like to be pinged next week, let me know!
