the wolf is not to blame // Ghost x Reader (fem no body desc)

cw implied non-con, general dark woods vibe, intimidation, hunter-prey dynamics

1.2k words

She registered the pair of boots sitting by the foot of the dresser like a parasite latched onto its host. They'd been there for weeks. Two weeks almost exactly, since Simon moved out, rather stormed out of the apartment one night after a particularly nasty fight. They burned the decaying remnants of their relationship, and argued over the fire, streaks of the greenish-red flames illuminating their true faces.

She'd also found a jumper in the laundry basket that she couldn't touch for the life of her. As if roots grew around it and pulled it down to the bottom of the hamper, turning it into rot and moss, somehow sustaining her while simultaneously plaguing her every growing sprout of potential happiness.

Still, she couldn't rid her sweet garden, the lovely place she retreated to each night of his belongings.

She half-expected for him to return, and convinced herself to keep the items around.

Even when a lone trespasser stumbled upon her carefully curated eden and plucked her ripe fruits right when they were the most supple and sweet, leaving behind empty apple cores strewn around the patch and nasty bootmarks in his wake, as he left just as quickly as he intruded into the dense woods on a whim.

- And the time Simon returned, couldn't have come soon enough. She knew it was coming, the crisp air around her had already whispered about him to her. When the three knocks on the front door resonated in the home, she wasn't even surprised. She opened the door to find Simon waiting in the hallway. He spoke before she could. "'m looking for a jumper and a pair of boots. Must 'ave left 'em here."He grumbled in his gruff voice, avoiding her gaze.

She sighed and opened the door more. "Be quick about it." That's all she told him before he walked past her, hands in pockets, hood of his sweater still up.

He disappeared into the bedroom quickly before emerging with the pair of boots. "The jumper?" He asked noncommittally and waited for her to reply with a tilt of his head.

"Laundry." She answered a little breathy, unsure why she was short of air. Him disappearing in the bathroom pulled her from her thoughts and she followed. She stood still in the doorway and looked up at him, only to see that he was holding a foreign piece of clothing in his hand.

"Whose is this?" He asked almost accusingly. Her face hardened and she snatched the garment from him. "None of your concern." She replied while she exited the bathroom and threw the item on the bed to hide her embarrassment about letting him find it, hoping the fabric of the covers would swallow the piece of cloth like a wet pile of leaves disappear a small corpse of an animal.

She couldn't see his hardening expression, lips pressed into a thin line as he stared at the place she disappeared from.

"You done packing?" She asked when she returned, trying to shift the topic from the obvious. Leaning against the doorframe, she crossed her arms and looked up at him, expecting an answer.

He reached into the laundry basket and pulled out the jumper he came for; "I'm not going anywhere." Came his reply, along with a stern, almost meditating look at her.

"You don't live here anymore, Simon. Now get your shit and leave." She retorted, trying to hold her ground, but starting to slip on the mossy, muddy ground and rapidly losing her footing in the dense, wet holt he summoned around her with his words.

"You were with someone." His mouth barely moved with his words, yet their weight sat heavily on her shoulders like vines growing on her unrelenting.

"None of your damn business." She hissed at him, feeling cornered by his presence.

"Someone spent the night here." He stated the obvious. Someone breached his territory.

"What happens then?" She scoffed audibly, but it sounded too desperate to be believable. "You don't own me anymore, Simon."

He chuckled darkly, maybe how she imagined a fox to laugh. "Foolish of you to think tha'…" He sighed pensively and moved ever so slightly closer to her. "Do you have any idea how much of a stupid fuckin' idea it was, to let anyone else touch you?"

His voice dripped with sarcasm, much like a prey animal's saliva hangs from its teeth when they sense the addictive aroma of fear filling the air the closer they creep to their helpless victims.

"You had your chance, and you messed it up." Her hands gripped the doorframe behind her as she felt Simon's suffocating presence close in on her.

He scoffed, bearing his fangs. "You think I'm the reason we broke up? That just proves my point, pet." He accentuated the derogatory name he used, which made her flinch. His brows shot up slightly as he continued; "Everything that happened was your fault. You pushed me away, the only person who seemed to care about you… for someone who leaves the moment they get their feed from you? I took you to be better than that, but I guess I was wrong…" He practically drawled, metaphorically licking at the supple pink of her skin before biting down on a vital vein.

"Get out." She managed to force it out of her mouth as Simon towered over her. She would have been too embarrassed for him to sense just how much of an effect she had on him. "I don't want to hear it." She said, squeezing her eyes closed, her hand in the air pointing toward the front door.

"Just because I'm right?" He smirked and tilted his head slightly again. "Look at you, you can't even deny it, pet." He was standing over her at this point, belittling her with solely his broad, muscular figure that seemed to be covered in dark, dark fur that furrowed in excitement and wrath equally.

"Oh fuck off…" She turned away from her, feet rooted in place by a nefarious rush of an emotion vaguely similar to zeal, danger close to triggering her fight or flight response. "Why are you suddenly so interested in what I'm feeling?" She squeezed the words past her lips with her eyes screwing shut.

"I'm interested in what you're not feeling… and that is me." He leaned in, face only inches from hers, his hot breath fanning over her exposed jugular. "If I'm a joke to you, why are you still afraid of me?" He growled at her, donning a wolfish grin she didn't dare observe, as it was already plastered on the insides of her lids.

"Simon, please leave." She whispered. "Leave before I make you leave." Her terrified, delicious scent slowly crept up his searchingly flaring nostrils.

He laughed that small muted laugh that reminded her of a hyena almost; condescending and mocking.

"You can't make me." He took a final step toward her, closing the last stride between them and enclosing her in his vicious space. "I'm not going anywhere, don't worry." He soothed her with his venom while snaking his hand up to her face, where he cupped her cheek with a bruising strength, pressing her flesh onto her teeth, making her wince. "I'll always be here for you, even if you don't want me to."

so yeah- I don't think I should string this idea any further, it sits right with me as is. feral possessive Simon will always have my heart.

shine on me || denki kaminari

desc.: It’s your one-year anniversary, and Kaminari knows exactly what to get you.

a/n: i was gonna use this for the springtime event but ended up writing “eden’s house” instead, but this is still pretty good, in my humble opinion. this is pretty much told from kiri’s pov in third person, which is weird bc it’s a kami fic, but i like experimenting with stuff like this so. also this is pretty much a crackfic. anyway down with capitalism [navigation]

w/c: 1,039

ALL WORKS TAGLIST: @keigos-dove, @knifeewifee, @heroheads, @bvnnyclouds, @hanniejji, @wesparklebitch

“I wanna get them flowers.”

Kaminari didn’t have to mention who he was talking about, or what. He’d talked enough about it to Kirishima in the weeks beforehand. Neither of them looked away from the TV screen as Kaminari continued to bombard him with green shells.

“It’s your one-year anniversary and you want to get them flowers? Don’t you think that’s a little small for a gift?” Kirishima asked. Kaminari would probably kill him for the blue shell he was about to send.

“Well, it’s not gonna be any of that capitalist flower shop shit. I’ve gotta give em’ something from the heart, you know?” Kaminari crossed the finish line just as the blue shell landed, and Kiri sat back in defeat.

“Well, you know them better than I do. Do what you want.” The next race was about to start. “Flowers still just seem a little lame, though.”

“It’s lame unless it comes from the heart.”

“Flowers are something you do for the first date, not a one-year-anniversary.” Kirishima was paying less attention to what he was saying and more to the fact that he was about to beat Kami’s ass on the Daisy Hills course. Out of all the obstacles in Mario Kart, the one thing Kaminari couldn’t beat was the sheep. Go figure.

“Will you come with me to get them some, though?”

The countdown started. Kiri sighed. “Yeah, of course.”

“Be ready to go at midnight, yeah?”

“Yeah, yeah…wait, what?”

“Do you think they’ll like these ones?”

Kaminari snipped senselessly at the air with his scissors as he looked down at the camellias, deciding. Kirishima kept looking over his shoulder, but his friend didn’t seem to care if anyone saw them cutting flowers at two in the morning in some rich dude’s garden.

“Bro, can’t we just go to a flower store or something?” He said, eyeing Kaminari’s scissors warily. He barely trusted Kami with his quirk. Scissors were the last thing someone should give him.

“Nah, bro. I’m not getting them any of those overpriced pansies. If I’m getting them flowers, I’m gonna get them myself.”

“This is someone else’s property.”

“Yeah, but I’m the one cutting them, so finders keepers. They don’t need these flowers, anyway. Do you still have the ribbon?” Kirishima sighed and reached into his pocket, showing him the golden spool, and Kaminari made up his mind. “Pink and gold should be fine, right?”

“Just make it quick, okay?”

“I know, I know…” He replied, and then continued to stand and debate which flowers he should cut first for a good couple minutes.

At first, Kaminari cut flowers from a different bush each time (in which there were plenty) but as both he and Kirishima became impatient, he began taking three, then four at a time, until there was a pile of flowers on the ground that Kirishima wasn’t sure the ribbon could hold.

Kaminari continued to cut flowers until both of his hands couldn’t wrap around all the combined stems, and only then gestured for the ribbon. He took a moment to adjust it before haphazardly wrapping the stems, and as he held up the bouquet, Kirishima couldn’t even see his friend’s eyes over all of the pink camellias and their leaves. He couldn’t imagine Kami’s partner even being able to hold a bouquet that large without getting a noseful of pollen.

Kirishima put his hands on his hips and said, “They’re gonna know these didn’t come from a store.”

“I know.”

“Aren’t you worried they’re gonna be mad at you for being so careless?”

“Maybe they will be. Who’s to say?” Kaminari patted him on the shoulder as he walked by, stuffing his scissors in his pocket. “Let’s get out of here before someone sees!”

Kirishima sighed, as he often did with Kaminari. He really needed better friends.

“Hey!” Kaminari called, grabbing Kirishima’s sleeve to drag him towards you. You turned around and just nearly gasped at the bouquet. “Happy one-year, babe!”

You stared at him with a grin. “Oh my God, are these camellias?”

“Oh, that’s what they’re called?” He handed them to you, and you carded your fingers through the bundled flowers, beaming. “Kiri went and got them with me!”

Your brow furrowed. You solemnly stated, “These aren’t from a shop.”

Before Kirishima could make up an excuse, Kaminari smiled and replied, “Nope! I got them from that one rich dude’s mansion! You know the one with those ugly golden gates and shit? He didn’t even know we were there!”

For a second, you only stared at him, and Kirishima was sure you were gonna start yelling at both of them, but then you smiled. Moving forward to wrap your arms awkwardly around him with the bouquet still in hand, you beamed, “Oh, Denki-baby, you know I love it when you eat the rich!”

You kissed him, and then you started making out with him right in the middle of the school hallway, and Kirishima was left stunned. He was befuddled! He was flabbergasted! Class was going to start in five minutes, and two of his friends were making out over eating the rich. They could have gotten in trouble for stealing those flowers, not to mention for breaking and entering. They still could. And you were still making out with Kaminari. Still. Maybe you were making out with him a little longer than it was worth.

But then Kirishima considered it all for a moment. You and Kaminari were in love, and if you showed that by stealing rich people’s flowers for each other, then so be it. Why should he judge, besides the obvious reasons? Why shouldn’t you two be allowed to show your love for each other in a way that made sense to you, even if it was seen as a criminal offense in the eyes of society? And why was he still watching you two make out?

As Kirishima forced his friend off of you to make sure you all got to class on time, he began to consider what was really important in life. Good relationships. Happy times. Loving the ones around you, understanding them, and being there for them when you can’t. And most importantly, the fall of capitalism.

Five New Thoughts About Garden Of Eden Description That Will Turn Your World Upside Down | garden of eden description

In 1881, General Charles Gordon (later accepted as Gordon of Khartoum) boarded on a continued boating to an archipelago off East Africa. The Seychelles, a accumulation of 115 islands in the Indian Ocean, spent best of their actuality absolutely arid by humans. The British administrator didn’t apperceive what to apprehend – but no one was able for what he found.

File:Oberhausen – Gasometer – Der schöne Schein … – garden of eden description | garden of eden description

Gordon, a religious man and a Christian cosmologist, accustomed this acreage from descriptions in the Book of Genesis: it was the Garden of Eden.

Here, 135 years later, I stood in the aforementioned basin as Gordon on the island of Praslin, acquainted of what I had appear to see but still appropriately entranced. Within the aboriginal few accomplish of entering the Vallée de Mai, I was belted in a apple of acute greenery. Approach branches fanned out, aberrant calm to anatomy a blubbery awning that blocked out the sky. Everywhere I turned, a close backwoods of astronomic copse accomplished boundless heights of 30m, their branches engulfing their ambience with approach fronds 10m continued and 4m wide.

There were no signs of animal activity afar from an earthen aisle that was generally blocked by the overflowing bulb life. Here, in a boscage of age-old palms, there was the audible faculty that this was a abode clashing any added in the world. Everything was larger, bolder, denser, wilder. I didn’t accept to admiration how the Vallée de Mai charge accept looked to Gordon aback then; the backwoods has remained abundantly clear back aged times.

Garden of Eden (Paradise) | Mythology.net – garden of eden description | garden of eden description

It’s not aloof the paradise-like affluence that appropriate Gordon’s theory. The Vallée de Mai is home to a decidedly abstruse allusion to the bearing of man and woman: the coco de mer, a attenuate blazon of approach timberline accepted for its evocative “male” and “female” seeds that buck an astonishing affinity to animal changeable anatomy parts. The seeds – the better and heaviest in the bulb commonwealth – are alike adult-sized, extensive weights of up to 30kg.

The coco de mer has spawned so abounding legends that the timberline is fabulous and admired in acreage far above the Seychelles. Back these oversized, suggestively shaped seeds done up on the shores of the Arabian Peninsula hundreds of years ago, they bound aggregate a allegorical momentum. They were apparent as symbols and ability of fertility; rumours swirled about their able amative qualities. It was broadly affected the ample seeds were coconuts that had floated abroad from undersea approach trees; Middle Eastern princes offered a affluence for these attenuate treasures, and bodies took to the betraying oceans, analytic afield for the underwater approach tree.

The acute timberline is ancient to Praslin and the neighbouring island of Curieuse, but it absolutely thrives in the Vallee de Mai. It takes three months for a berry to germinate, and it charge abide absolutely breadth it fell, untouched, in adjustment to grow. Legends of the coco de mer advance far and wide, but the accuracy was alike drifter than fiction. Thanks to the trees’ staggered advance patterns, breadth award growing the ample “male” seeds abide abutting to ones that buck alone “female” seeds, imaginations ran agrarian – decidedly on airy nights, back the macho and changeable genitalia intertwined.

17 Reasons Why Garden Of Eden Description Genesis Is Common In USA … – garden of eden description | garden of eden description

In its 40 years of independence, the Seychelles has gone to abundant lengths to assure its Garden of Eden, one of the world’s aboriginal Unesco Apple Heritage sites.

The coco de mer is the attribute of the Seychelles; esplanade rangers bouncer the adequate acreage proudly and fiercely, and the seeds are carefully regulated. Both tourists and locals charge a admittance to buy the coco de mer seed, and alone assertive rangers are accustomed to aggregate a bound cardinal from the Vallée de Mai area. Anyone abroad bent demography one faces bristles years of bastille time.

The basin is home to a array of baby creatures, all with astonishing abilities to adumbrate in apparent sight. There are geckos, colossal slugs, timberline frogs, chameleons, insects, and of course, the Garden of Eden’s acclaimed snakes. Then there is the forest’s acclaimed and attenuate atramentous parrot, which builds its backup in the basin of the coco de mer tree. The lives of these birds and the adaptation of the coco de mer are intertwined: the parrots blend the trees, and the copse are the alone abode the parrots will nest.

The islands of the Seychelles are home to abounding mysteries. Alone 12 of the archipelago’s 115 islands are inhabited. Praslin is one; like the added islands, its granite abject is belted with some of the world’s best admirable white-sand beaches attentive by the aerial boulders begin everywhere beyond the Seychelles. Here, in the baby Vallée de Mai, it’s adamantine to bethink that the blow of the apple exists alone a few kilometres away.

For centuries, advisers accept debated the aboriginal armpit of the Garden of Eden. Walking through the Vallée de Mai, with its larger-than-life attributes and attenuate peculiarities, it’s accessible to see why in this allotment of the world, there is little doubt.

Pomegranates Quotes

Official Website: Pomegranates Quotes

(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push();

• Adversity is like the period of the rain. . . cold, comfortless, unfriendly to people and to animals; yet from that season have their birth the flower, the fruit, the date, the rose and the pomegranate. – Walter Scott • And her sweet red lips on these lips of mine Burned like the ruby fire set In the swinging lamp of a crimson shrine, Or the bleeding wounds of the pomegranate, Or the heart of the lotus drenched and wet With the spilt-out blood of the rose-red wine. – Oscar Wilde

jQuery(document).ready(function($) var data = action: 'polyxgo_products_search', type: 'Product', keywords: 'Pomegranate', orderby: 'rand', order: 'DESC', template: '1', limit: '68', columns: '4', viewall:'Shop All', ; jQuery.post(spyr_params.ajaxurl,data, function(response) var obj = jQuery.parseJSON(response); jQuery('#thelovesof_pomegranate').html(obj); jQuery('#thelovesof_pomegranate img.swiper-lazy:not(.swiper-lazy-loaded)' ).each(function () var img = jQuery(this); img.attr("src",img.data('src')); img.addClass( 'swiper-lazy-loaded' ); img.removeAttr('data-src'); ); ); );

• But I have an African or Indian approach to what I find. I like to make use of everything. I can’t bear to throw things away – a nice wine bottle, a nice box. Sometimes I feel like a wizard in Toytown, transforming a bunch of carrots into pomegranates. – Eduardo Paolozzi • Close to the Gates a spacious Garden lies, From the Storms defended and inclement Skies; Four Acres was the allotted Space of Ground, Fenc’d with a green Enclosure all around. Tall thriving Trees confessed the fruitful Mold: The reddening Apple ripens here to Gold, Here the blue Fig with luscious Juice overflows, With deeper Red the full Pomegranate glows, The Branch here bends beneath the weighty Pear, And verdant Olives flourish round the Year. – Homer • Fun fact #1 about pomegranates: Pomegranates are awesome.Fun fact #2: Pomegranates are like little explosions of awesome in your mouth.Fun fact #3: A lot of people think you’re not supposed to eat the seeds of a pomegranate – but that’s not true, people who tell you that are liars, and they don’t know anything about life, and they should never be trusted. – Tahereh Mafi • Gospel ministers should not only be like dials on watches, or mile-stones upon the road, but like clocks and larums, to sound the alarm to sinners. Aaron wore bells as well as pomegranates, and the prophets were commanded to lift up their voice like a trumpet. A sleeping sentinel may be the loss of the city. – Joseph Hall • I am Persephone” she said, her voice thin and papery. “Welcome, demigods. Nico squashed a pomegranate under his boot. “Welcome? After last time, you’ve got the nerve to welcome me?” I shifted uneasily, because talking that way to a god can get you blasted into dust bunnies. “Um, Nico-” “It’s all right,” Persephone said coldly. “We had a little family spat.” “Family spat?” Nico cried. “You turned me into a dandelion! – Rick Riordan • I envied women with signature hair-dos, signature perfumes, signature sign-offs. Novelists who tell Vogue Magazine: “I can’t live without my Smythson notebook, Pomegranate Noir cologne by Jo Malone and Frette sheets”. In the grip of madness, materialism begins to look like an admirable belief system. – Emma Forrest • I felt like a seed in a pomegranate. Some say that the pomegranate was the real apple of Eve, fruit of the womb, I would eat my way into perdition to taste you. – Jeanette Winterson • I loved every second of Catholic church. I loved the sickly sweet rotting-pomegranate smells of the incense. I loved the overwrought altar, the birdbath of holy water, the votive candles; I loved that there was a poor box, the stations of the cross rendered in stained glass on the windows. – Anne Lamott • In 1879 the Bengali scholar S.M. Tagore compiled a more extensive list of ruby colors from the Purana sacred texts: ‘like the China rose, like blood, like the seeds of the pomegranate, like red lead, like the red lotus, like saffron, like the resin of certain trees, like the eyes of the Greek partridge or the Indian crane…and like the interior of the half-blown water lily.’ With so many gorgeous descriptive possibilities it is curious that in English the two ancient names for rubies have come to sound incredibly ugly. – Victoria Finlay • My heart is like a singing bird Whose nest is in a water’d shoot; My heart is like an apple-tree Whose boughs are bent with thick-set fruit; My heart is like a rainbow shell That paddles in a halcyon sea; My heart is gladder than all these, Because my love is come to me. Raise me a daïs of silk and down; Hang it with vair and purple dyes; Carve it in doves and pomegranates, And peacocks with a hundred eyes; Work it in gold and silver grapes, In leaves and silver fleurs-de-lys; Because the birthday of my life Is come, my love is come to me. – Christina Rossetti • Or from Browning some “Pomegranate,” which if cut deep down the middle Shows a heart within blood-tinctured, of a veined humanity. – Elizabeth Barrett Browning • Pomegranate juice has staying power. It’s not a fad. Once people have tasted POM Wonderful, they say they are addicted – and it’s a good addiction to have. – Lynda Resnick • Pomegranate Soup is glorious, daring and delightful. I adored the Iranian sisters, Marjan, Bahar and Layla, who are looking to build a life, start a business and find love in a place so far from home. Ireland has never been more beautiful – the perfect setting for this story filled with humor, hope and possibility. – Adriana Trigiani

• So hey, once Joshua heals your brother, you want to go do something, get some pomegranate juice, a falafel,or get married or something? – Christopher Moore • So where does the name Adam’s apple come from? Most people say that it is from the notion that this bump was caused by the forbidden fruit getting stuck in the throat of Adam in the Garden of Eden. There is a problem with this theory because some Hebrew scholars believe that the forbidden fruit was the pomegranate. The Koran claims that the forbidden fruit was a banana. So take your pick—Adam’s apple, Adam’s pomegranate, Adam’s banana. Eve clearly chewed before swallowing. – Mark Leyner • Surely Love is a wonderful thing. It is more precious than emeralds, and dearer than fine opals. Pearls and pomegranates cannot buy it, nor is it set forth in the marketplace. It may not be purchased of the merchants, for can it be weighed out in the balance for gold. – Oscar Wilde • The decor bowled me over. Everywhere I looked, there was something more to see. Botanical prints, a cross section of pomegranates, a passionflower vine and its fruit. Stacks of thick books on art and design and a collection of glass paperweights filled the coffee table. It was enormously beautiful, a sensibility I’d never encountered anywhere, a relaxed luxury. I could feel my mother’s contemptuous gaze falling on the cluttered surfaces, but I was tired of three white flowers in a glass vase. There was more to life than that. – Janet Fitch • The fallen hazel-nuts, Stripped late of their green sheaths, The grapes, red-purple, Their berries Dripping with wine, Pomegranates already broken, And shrunken fig, And quinces untouched, I bring thee as offering. – Hilda Doolittle • While still sixteen I am put in charge of a class of forty children who are two, three or four years younger than I. I fall in love with them. They are my possession, my mob whose forty minds, under my flashy and domineering control, are to become one, a mind unsullied by errors, unmarked by blots, contaminated by misplaced originalities outside the curriculum, and as full of facts as a pomegranate seed. – Hal Porter

Ancient Ghana is Guyana: the first Gold Coast was in South America.

El Dorado

Old World Map of El Dorado. Look at that Golden city. I have seen El Dorado on more than two old world maps, so best believe that El Dorado was no myth. I have shared several old world maps of El Dorado in this blog post to authenticate my claims, because the testimony of two or more witnesses is truth according to the Bible and Common law.

El Dorado

Manoa means big lake, because the City of Manoa El Dorado got its source of gold from the famed lake Parime, which was very real too because you can see it on many old-world maps too. This is what English Explorer Sir Walter Raleigh had to say about El Dorado: “I have been assured by such of the Spaniards as have seen Manoa, the imperial city of Guiana, which the Spaniards call El Dorado, that for the greatness, for the riches, and for the excellent seat, it far exceedeth any of the world, at least of so much of the world as is known to the Spanish nation. It is founded upon a lake of salt water of 200 leagues long, like unto Mare Caspium.

Old World map of Guinea (Ghana)

Here is an Old World map of Guinea (Ghana) showing you the first Senegal and Timbuctoo, because the second Senegal and Timbuctoo are in Africa, since America is the True Old World. This old-world map also shows you the Bey of Benin. What’s interest about Benin is that it is a Country in West Africa that is heavily associated with Ghana, Africa and Nigeria, Africa. This map also shows you the Niger (Nigerian) river, Liberia, and Sierra Leone – all of which are in Africa. All of this evidence suggests that Guyana (Ghana) and Senegal was once upper Mauritania, because this area is now called Southern Mauritania in Africa.

Old world Map of Guiana (Ghana)

Old world Map of Guiana (Ghana). This map also shows you the famed Manoa El Dorado, which was a city of gold and the capital of the Guiana. This Guiana/Guyana was the Ghana of the West and this was the First Ghana, since America is the True Old World. The Ghana in Africa is just a reflection of Guiana.

Map of Guyana

Map of modern day Guyana, formerly known as Ghana/Guana/Guinea/Guiana/Gviana.

Peace friends, this post, “Ancient Ghana is Guyana: the first Gold Coast was in South America,” is not intended to take away from any of the glorious history of Africa. This post is intended to demonstrate that the first Ghana or ancient Ghana was in South America near the Amazon region. This post is necessary to demonstrate that America is the True Old world and I hope you all enjoy.

In this post is old world maps from the 1500’s and 1600’s that shows you Ghana/Guana/Guinea/Guiana/Gviana, which is now present-day Guyana, in South America near the Amazon region.

Why was Guyana, the Ghana of the West, the first Gold Coast? Well, because the capital city of Guiana/Guyana (Ghana) was the famed golden city of Manoa El Dorado, which was very real as you can see it on three of the Old-world maps that I shared in this blog post. The testimony of 2 or more witnesses is truth according to the Bible and Common Law. Why would El Dorado be a myth when it’s on several old maps? “It is in the mythical that we have the truth” ~ Greek proverb.

Also, here is a Google search link with plenty of old world maps to prove that even the mythical golden city of El Dorado was very real: https://www.google.com/search… . As you can see when you click on the link I gave, El dorado was very real, because it’s too many old world maps that verify its existence. El Dorado was found in Mount Roraima. Mount Roraima is in south America near Guyana (Ghana) and is considered to be the mythical tree of life that was in the Garden of Eden. Read more about Mount Roraima right here: https://www.facebook.com/Americaisthetrueoldworld/posts/1957812580949699.

“I have been assured by such of the Spaniards as have seen Manoa, the imperial city of Guiana, which the Spaniards call El Dorado, that for the greatness, for the riches, and for the excellent seat, it far exceedeth any of the world, at least of so much of the world as is known to the Spanish nation. It is founded upon a lake of salt water of 200 leagues long, like unto Mare Caspium.

According to Raleigh, the lake itself was the source of the gold possessed by the people of Manoa:

Most of the gold which they made in plates and images was not severed from the stone, but on the lake of Manoa, and in a multitude of other rivers, they gathered it in grains of perfect gold and in pieces as big as small stones.” [End quote from his books The Discoverie of the Large, Rich, and Bewtiful Empyre of Guiana, published first in 1596, and The Discovery of Guiana, and the Journal of the Second Voyage Thereto, published in 1606.]

As a result of Raleigh’s work, maps began to appear depicting El Dorado and Lake Parime. One of the first was the elder Jodocus Hondius’ Nieuwe Caerte van het Wonderbaer ende Goudrycke Landt Guiana, which was published in 1598. Hondius’ map depicts an elongated Lake Parime south of the Orinoco River, with the majority of the lake positioned south of the equator, and with Manoa on the northern shore, towards the eastern half of the lake. Manoa is noted as “the greatest city in the entire world“. Hondius’ map was subsequently copied by Theodore de Bry and published in his popular Grands Voyages in 1599. When Hondius published a completely revised edition of Mercator’s Atlas in 1608, it included a map of South America featuring Lake Parime with the majority of the lake located south of the equator, and with Manoa again along the northern shore, although not quite so far east.

What happened to Lake Parime? Well, one theory is that Lake Parime did actually exist, and was drained abruptly in June 1690 when an intensity IX (Violent) earthquake opened a bedrock fault, forming a rift or a graben that permitted the water to flow into the Rio Branco. Yes, the Old World looked very different than we know it today and we owe that to a series of cataclysmic events that changed the geography of the world.

THE AMERICAS IS THE PROMISED LAND (GRANADA/ ISRAEL/ MOSLEM-JERUSALEM), BECAUSE IT IS THE LAND OF ABUNDANCE:

The Americas is the Promised Land/Israel, aka, Granada, due to its abundance in resources. The famed seven golden cities of Cibola was even real: https://www.facebook.com/Americaisthetrueoldworld/posts/2527399080657710.

Guyana (Ghana) is also very rich in Oil, aka, Black Gold:

The South American country of Guyana (Ghana) has entered the new decade as an oil producer with a total of 18 discoveries made since 2015. There also remains massive potential for more discoveries from ongoing and planned exploration campaigns. Reports indicate that for the year 2019, Guyana was able to overtake Russia as the world’s highest oil producer: https://www.inewsguyana.com/guyana-overtakes-russia-as-worlds-top-oil-discoveries-for-2019/?fbclid=IwAR1hauEERbQuVPasB0wUI8oBQkcO-ono6DsxDNTEr9z6Aacw7uvxiYFR1cA.

“Most of the world’s gold comes from South America, so it’s no surprise that the first Gold Coast was also in South America.” Also, the invasion had nothing to do with race, it had everything to do with land and wealth, because the Americas had the riches soil (soul) and we literally had cities and kingdoms of gold. Read this Facebook post I did that demonstrates that Christopher Columbus and company, Amerigo Vespucci, Holy Roman Emperor Charles V, and King James of the Bible were all melanated (Black) Roman Jews (Hebrews) under the Catholic faith, aka, Knights templars, that were authorized to invaded the Americas, via, the Dum Diversa of 1452: https://www.facebook.com/Americaisthetrueoldworld/posts/3027911943939752. Yes, all roads lead back to Rome.

UPPER MAURITANIA WAS IN SOUTH AMERICA:

Both Guyana (Ghana) and Granada were two Muurish civilizations that were strongholds for the Mu’urs from Mu/Atlantis (the Americas), so we are dealing with Blackamoor civilizations here. Mu is code for Mu’urs and Mu also means Mother. Also, in this post is an old-world map of Guinea (Ghana) showing you the first Senegal and Timbuctoo, because the second Senegal and Timbuctoo are in Africa, since America is the True Old World. This old-world map also shows you the Bey of Benin. What’s interest about Benin is that it is a Country in West Africa that is heavily associated with Ghana, Africa and Nigeria, Africa. This map also shows you the Niger (Nigerian) river, Liberia, and Sierra Leone – all of which are in Africa. All of this evidence suggests that Guyana (Ghana) and Senegal was once upper Mauritania, because this area is now called Southern Mauritania in Africa today. Please read this related blog post, “The Americas is Atlantis and the Origin of the Ancient Egyptian Civilization, because this blog post has an Old world map of Mauritania being in South America: https://www.americaistheoldworld.com/the-americas-was-atlantis-and-the-origin-of-the-ancient-egyptian-civilization/.

And with a hoe in one hand and a cold drink in the other, tell somebody else where to dig. – Texas Bix Bender • The country is making a big mistake not teaching kids to cook and raise a garden and build fires. – Loretta Lynn • The earth is my altar, the sky is my dome, mind is my garden, the heart is my home and I’m always at home – yea, I’m always at Om. – Eden Ahbez • The garden is a metaphor for life, and gardening is a symbol of the spiritual path. – Larry Dossey • The garden suggests there might be a place where we can meet nature halfway. – Michael Pollan • The great challenge for the garden designer is not to make the garden look natural, but to make the garden so that the people in it will feel natural. – Lawrence Halprin • The lesson I have thoroughly learnt, and wish to pass on to others, is to know the enduring happiness that the love of a garden gives. – Gertrude Jekyll • The love of gardening is a seed once sown that never dies. – Gertrude Jekyll • The more one gardens, the more one learns; And the more one learns, the more one realizes how little one knows. – Vita Sackville-West • The most noteworthy thing about gardeners is that they are always optimistic, always enterprising, and never satisfied. They always look forward to doing something better than they have ever done before. – Vita Sackville-West • The single greatest lesson the garden teaches is that our relationship to the planet need not be zero-sum, and that as long as the sun still shines and people still can plan and plant, think and do, we can, if we bother to try, find ways to provide for ourselves without diminishing the world. – Michael Pollan • The true object of all human life is play. Earth is a task garden; heaven is a playground. – Gilbert K. Chesterton • The weeds keep multiplying in our garden, which is our mind ruled by fear. Rip them out and call them by name. – Sylvia Browne • The wilderness is near as well as dear to every man. Even the oldest villages are indebted to the border of wild wood which surrounds them, more than to the gardens of men. There is something indescribably inspiriting and beautiful in the aspect of the forest skirting and occasionally jutting into the midst of new towns, which, like the sand-heaps of fresh fox-burrows, have sprung up in their midst. The very uprightness of the pines and maples asserts the ancient rectitude and vigor of nature. Our lives need the relief of such a background, where the pine flourishes and the jay still screams. – Henry David Thoreau • There are no green thumbs or black thumbs. There are only gardeners and non-gardeners. Gardeners are the ones who ruin after ruin get on with the high defiance of nature herself, creating, in the very face of her chaos and tornado, the bower of roses and the pride of irises. It sounds very well to garden a ‘natural way’. You may see the natural way in any desert, any swamp, any leech-filled laurel hell. Defiance, on the other hand, is what makes gardeners. – Henry Mitchell • There is no gardening without humility. Nature is constantly sending even its oldest scholars to the bottom of the class for some egregious blunder. – Alfred Austin • There is no need to go to India or anywhere else to find peace. You will find that deep place of silence right in your room, your garden or even your bathtub. – Elisabeth Kubler-Ross • There is peace in the garden. Peace and results. – Ruth Stout • They can certainly expect to be very impressed with the technical aspects of the show, fooled and led up the garden path by the story and ultimately have a jolly good laugh! – Louise Jameson • To garden is to let optimism get the better of judgment. – Eleanor Perenyi • To plant a garden is to believe in tomorrow. – Audrey Hepburn • Unemployment is capitalism’s way of getting you to plant a garden. – Orson Scott Card • We have descended into the garden and caught three hundred slugs. How I love the mixture of the beautiful and the squalid in gardening. It makes it so lifelike. – Evelyn Underhill • We were enclosed, O eternal Father, within the garden of your breast. You drew us out of your holy mind like a flower petaled with our soul’s three powers and into each power you put the whole plant, so that they might bear fruit in your garden, might come back to you with the fruit you gave them. And you would come back to the soul, to fill her with your blessedness. There the soul dwells like the fish in the sea and the sea in the fish. – St. Catherine of Siena • Well, being a jazz musician is not a rose garden! – Toots Thielemans • What a man needs in gardening is a cast-iron back, with a hinge in it. – Charles Dudley Warner • What is paradise, but, a garden, an orchard of trees and herbs, full of pleasure and nothing there but delights. – William Lawson • When your garden is finished I hope it will be more beautiful that you anticipated, require less care than you expected, and have cost only a little more than you had planned. – Thomas Church • Where would the gardener be if there were no more weeds? – Bill Vaughan • Wherever you have a plot of land, however small, plant a garden. Staying close to the soil is good for the soul. – Spencer W. Kimball • Who loves a garden still his Eden keeps. – Amos Bronson Alcott • Who loves a garden, still his Eden keeps, Perennial pleasures plants, and wholesome harvests reaps. – Amos Bronson Alcott • Why try to explain miracles to your kids when you can just have them plant a garden. – Robert Breault • Won’t you come into the garden? I would like my roses to see you. – Richard Brinsley Sheridan • Your family and your love must be cultivated like a garden. Time, effort, and imagination must be summoned constantly to keep any relationship flourishing and growing. – Jim Rohn • Your garden will reveal yourself. – Henry Mitchell
