🌿(elyria wants a smooch she's jealous now)

Send 🌿 to accidentally get caught under the mistletoe with my muse.

Haarlep laughed, a look of pure delight crossing his pretty features. "Ahh, my sweetling, are you going to throw a tantrum? Please do," he encouraged. "I do love a good fight. Such passion and energy."

He stepped up to her, putting his hand at the small of her back and pulling her against him, so she felt the heat of his hellspawn skin, and the bulge between his legs.

"Should I even bother with the mistletoe? No, I think not." He touched the little plant and it withered to ash. He growled when he kissed Elyria, his tail squeezing up her leg.

"My stamina can never be outmatched, my dear. There is plenty of Haarlep to go around."

⋆ : elyria concept + lore guide !! ( by jude. )

visual concept: a place where the night reigns, elyria is known for its silver rivers that flow all throughout the town. while its main way of transportation are little boats heavily inspired by gondolas, it is also known to be a very beautiful city to walk through. also known as the realm of the dead, it is common knowledge that dark magic and necromancy were born within the streets of elyria. most visitors describe the realm heavy with magic that they can sense and even taste at times, and that the silver water often shimmers under the moonlight.

portal : il ponte di rialto in venice, italy, is the most commonly known portal to elyria, and the easiest to get to. while any elyrian would be able to cross with no issue, it is the opposite for earth humans who would have to know and master an incredibly difficult set of dark magic incantations. however, if said incantations are successful, the visitors would be able to cross over to the realm by swimming right under the bridge.

rulers : elyria is currently ruled under a minister and its council. sigil : to be added !

motto: to know the bird by its song.

the realm of elyria : elyria's realm is known to be the on of the darkest: both literally and conceptually. it is the one where the night reigns: in this realm, the sun never rises. mythology implies that such a phenomenon is a punishment from the gods: the dark arts have been so rooted in elyrian magical practices, to the point where the gods felt a strong need to put an end to it. centuries ago, when one of the first rulers accidentally mishandled a dark spell and triggered an everlasting night to cast upon the realm, the gods decided not to reverse it. they had hopes, then, that the darkness would serve as a constant reminder of who truly is in control, and who reigns above the realms. the society of elyrian, however, learnt to embrace the night rather quickly and grew to love it.

in hopes of retaliation, the gods had attempted many tricks on elyria in order to put them back in place, such as their second most permanent one (after the night), floods. they began to happen a few years after the everlasting darkness laid on the realm: strange floods that would appear out of nowhere and drown the streets of elyria. its people, however, aloof and dreamy by nature, embraced that as well. thanked the gods, even, as they began to build boats in order to transport across the realm. the rivers that formed through the flood never took the appearance of normal water: they show to be silvery and glistening under the moonlight. when the town calms, when everyone goes to sleep at last, it is said that you can hear the water speak to you; most people hypothesize that the river is made out of the dead souls of elyria who are waiting to cross to the after life.

in the present time, it is now a place where people would mostly transport themselves on boats, though there is still walking space. it is a walkable city, especially when we stray away from the main city. the elyrian society puts a lot of focus on dark magic, and most people visit it when in need of dire assistance in the fields of mediumship, necromancy, dark arts, and so forth. however, elyria is renowned for its arts and culture. since the night has been reigning for centuries now, the population of the realm put a lot of emphasis on turning the curse into nights of endless fun: when visiting elyria, you will find opera houses and open string quartets in town centers. it has been proven, also, that a lot of common operas and classical literature on earth has been inspired on stories from elyria.

locations : il ponte delle stelle ( the bridge of stars ), which is essentially the mirror of elyria's portal. upon crossing over, you will be under this bridge, which is situated in the middle of the city center. the opera house, destined to show the history of elyria and its extravagance through plays, operas, and orchestras. the river of stars, the very one that has flooded the large streets of elyria years ago. its silvery, transluscent and shimmering water makes it seem like it is enchanted - or perhaps haunted by the spirits that drowned during the floods. the night market, a dark market by the outskirts of the city, where countless items are sold during the last week of every month. this renowned market brings in a lot of visitors from other realms: scholars, criminals and curious minds who are in need of various objects riddled in dark magic. remember - if something sold there seems to good to be true, it often is ! the forests of elyria, enchanted little woods where weird little creatures live. a few houses past the forests can be found, ones where hermits of elyrian society like to settle. it is said that the darkest of sorcerers live there : elyrians know to proceed with caution.

how to reach elyria : enchantments and dark arts incantations are what need to be told under the bridge of rialto in order to cross over. however, the presence of an elyrian is necessary in order to facilitate the crossing: a normal human would not be able to even get their hands on the incantations necessary.

population : elyrians make up the population of elyria, though it is also divided with specters.

jobs : dark arts practitioners, mediums and necromancers are the most oversaturated jobs in elyria. it is quite hard to be successful with these skills in the realm, considering the amount of people who attempt to practice it. be careful, though! a lot of them are not exactly what they sell themselves to be. actors, playwriters, musician and play techs are also rather popular.

elyria, a society :

elyrians : elyrians are known to be rather air headed and day dreamy. they are a very nice population and never quite act like they are better than anyone else. in fact, outsiders often describe elyrians to be a very happy group of people: they are often tipsy or under the influences of whatever is offered to them inside of operas and cabarets, sure, but there is. . . like a veil of magic over them, constantly keeping them in a cheery, easy going mood. they are also known to daydream a lot, to be caught in their own reveries. a lot of outsiders like to say that the sorcerers within the minister's council actively charm the realm in order to keep everyone happy, considering the endless darkness that could easily throw them into a pit of despair. truly, it seems like most of them are enchanted. necromancers and sorcerers who practice the dark arts, however, tend to be a little grumpier. somehow, being exposed to such a powerful magic offers them immunity to whatever. . . happiness flows through the streets of elyria.

spettri : spettri ( spettro in singular ) make for another part of the elyrian population: these entities are also known as ghosts, poltergeists, or tormented souls. this is a percentage of the population that is dead but unfinished. ( think of the ghosts in harry potter! ) spettri who are a part of the peculiar society are entities who are still not able to cross to the afterlife. whether it is because they still have something to fulfill before fully leaving, or because something within themselves is stopping them from doing so, they are stuck on earth up until they resolve it. naturally, this population is known to be solitary and often keeps to themselves.  on a physical standpoint, spettri look and seem like elyrians, though they are entirely transluscent. while they can still appear like other elyrians ( which is to say, not transparent ), a lot of them give up on that construct soon into their new lives as spettri since it takes up a lot of energy from them. spettri do not need to sleep as they aren’t alive, but a lot of them do so anyways considering how used to it they are. they do not need to eat either, but it isn’t uncommon for them to engage in meals with others. elyrians do not particularly engage with them - they tend to ignore them, pretend like they do not exist. the only people who truly interact with them are necromancers and dark arts sorcerers. the only job that spettri can accept are to ride the boats on the river of stars. they are naturally not paid for it, and are forced to wear various masks ( like the ones in the moodboard !! ) in order to hide their identity.

the fashion : see phantom of the opera during big events , interview with the vampire , a haunting in venice ( !!! ) , as well as large dark robes that most sorcerers and necromancers wear , crow and harlequin masks to cover people's faces - which is a rather common practice.

The Tree-Tops Uniform.

Okay, so I have never been in military school BUT It makes perfect sense that this is their uniform to blend in the surroundings, HOWEVER, the school setting is definitely based on those magic school and a bit of my school experience.

Might research a bit of military school cause what they do IS physically taxing since they fight monsters and poachers but I don't want it to be like a very strict military school

A 17-month-old child is in the pediatric intensive care unit after an Elyria Police raid gone wrong, a family says. The incident occurred after Courtney Price and her son Waylon had traveled from Kentucky to stay with family in Elyria so the child could receive medical care at University Hospitals Rainbow Babies and Children, the mother said. Elyria Police Special Response Team were executing a search warrant at the home, which was the correct address on the search warrant, police said in a press release Friday. The officers had obtained the court-authorized search warrant as part of an ongoing criminal investigation, according to police. Two flash-bangs were deployed outside of the residence, police said. They are devices that produce sound and light that are noticeable in day or night conditions and are intended to distract a suspect’s attention. Diversionary devices do not produce a continuous burn and they do not deploy or contain any pepper gas or chemical agent, according to police. Price said the smoke covered Waylon and that she could not attend to him in the moment because she was taken into custody. She said she told officers her son was born prematurely and has pre-existing medical conditions. “I kept yelling for my baby,” Price said in an interview with cleveland.com and The Plain Dealer Friday night. “The officers were in the home, searching the home. The baby was clearly laying there suffocating turning red, blue, and they all just walked by him. Nobody went to him.”

Elyria Police said detectives, paramedics and the mother assessed the condition of the child, confirming that the child did not sustain any apparent, visible injuries. Redia Jennings, Price’s aunt, has been renting the home since February 2023. She said Elyria Police have come to the house multiple times before Wednesday searching for the same suspect, who she said is a previous tenant. “There’s been five different occasions that detectives and CPS and officers have showed up at my house looking for (the suspect). They’ve been told numerous times he does not live here,” she said. Waylon is in the pediatric ICU at University Hospitals, Price said Friday. She said he was diagnosed with chemical pneumonitis, has burns all over his body and is struggling to breathe.

Relevant, this child was already using a ventilator. The cops also destroyed that. The family's GoFundMe

also if you note in the article, it mentions CPS. The warrant was for a 14 year old. they came ready to flash bang A CHILD. that they got the wrong one entirely... whelp.

Video shows the cops tossing in the flash bang they said they did not throw.

In the realm of Elyria, where magic and mystery intertwine, two powerful sorcerers stood at odds. The once-harmonious balance of light and darkness was shattered as tensions rose. Whispers of betrayal and deceit filled the air, leaving all to wonder who held the truth. A cryptic message led to a hidden chamber, where the key to salvation or doom lay buried. Time ticked away as they raced to solve the riddle, each step drawing them closer to the heart of the conflict. In that moment, it was clear - one must fall for the other to rise. But who? And at what cost?

[rhythmicreverie]

In the realm of Elyria, two civilizations thrived - the technologically advanced Cyberians in the sky-city of Nimbus, and the magical Elarians on the enchanted island of Lunaria. The Cyberians built their home with steel and glass, while the Elarians shaped the land with ancient magic. One day, a Cosmic Catastrophe loomed over Elyria, threatening to destroy both civilizations. A hero from each world, Cyra and Elan, united in their mission to save their worlds. They devised a plan to merge their realms' power sources - cyber-energy and magical essence - into one. Cyra and Elan knew the fusion would cost them dearly, but it was for the greater good. They embraced, hearts racing, as they combined their life forces, merging their civilizations in a spectacular display of unity. The Cosmic Catastrophe dissipated, and Elyria flourished. The tale of Cyra and Elan's sacrifice lived on, a testament to the power of love and unity in the face of adversity.

😘💋 more forehead kisses from Elyria "Are you hungry, then, you poor thing? Is sweet sweet master not giving you a proper meal?"

Random asks || always accepting

Haarlep leant into those kisses, his tail happily wagging from side to side.

"My dear, my hunger is insatiable," he purred. "Do you plan on sating that? Hm?" He would not say no.
