The weird thing about my asexuality is that it’s kinda like watered down bisexuality in which everyone around me is so so so beautiful and I want to give them all the kisses but anything more and I will bite your hand off

the pathologic Kin is largely fictionalized with a created language that takes from multiple sources to be its own, a cosmogony & spirituality that does not correlate to the faiths (mostly Tengrist & Buddhist) practiced by the peoples it takes inspirations from, has customs, mores and roles invented for the purposes of the game, and even just a style of dress that does not resemble any of these peoples', but it is fascinating looking into specifically to me the sigils and see where they come from... watch this:

P2 Layers glyphs take from the mongolian script:

while the in-game words for Blood, Bones and Nerves are mongolian directly, it is interesting to note that their glyphs do not have a phonetic affiliation to the words (ex. the "Yas" layer of Bones having for glyph the equivalent of the letter F, the "Medrel" layer of Nerves having a glyph the equivalent of the letter È,...)

the leatherworks on the Kayura models', with their uses of angles and extending lines, remind me of the Phags Pa Script (used for Tibetan, Mongolian, Chineses, Uyghur language, and others)

some of the sigils also look either in part or fully inspired by Phags Pa script letters...

some look closer to the mongolian or vagindra (buryat) script

looking at the Herb Brides & their concept art, we can see bodypainting that looks like vertical buryat or mongolian script (oh hi (crossed out: Mark) Phags Pa script):

shaped and reshaped...

Gifts

Hippolyta: Hey, happy birthday.

Diomedes (unhappily): Thanks.

Hippolyta: What's wrong?

Diomedes: It's Dad. You know how he always gives us gifts?

Hippolyta: Yeah?

Diomedes: Well...I don't want to hurt his feelings, but they're kind of terrible.

Hippolyta: I can't say I haven't noticed that.

Diomedes: What did he give you?

Hippolyta: This girdle. Most uncomfortable thing I own, but it gives me more strength to fight at least.

Diomedes: That's better than my gift. He gave me mares.

Hippolyta: That doesn't sound so bad-

Diomedes: That EAT people.

Hippolyta:...

(Someone starts singing "happy birthday to you")

Hippolyta: Better hope for something better this time.

Ares (grinning and gives both kids a hug): Happy birthday, Son! I got you something!

Diomedes (sheepishly accepts gift): What is it?

Ares (excited): See for yourself!

(Diomedes opens the box to find a head)

Ares: You can put that on a stake outside your kingdom. That way, you’ll scare off anyone who thinks they can try to invade. It doesn't even rot! You can have this forever.

Diomedes: Gee, thanks, Dad.

Ares: No problem! Only the best for my kids. There's a war going on right now, so I can't stay long, but I wanted to stop by. Love you both!

(Ares leaves and Hippolyta holds out her hands)

Hippolyta: Consider my gift to you disposing of that head.

Diomedes (hands it to her): Best gift I've ever gotten.

Theory for Zagreus so its been circulating that his titan blood was the blood sacrifices he’s referring to but I’m thinkin maybe that’s not the case. I think the satyrs did the sacrifices but due to them being at the temple right close by and due to Zagreus affecting time in some way with his weapons from other worlds and times, Chronos is aware of his potential and realized he was the god of blood so ate him to complete his blood sacrifices and be able to reach Olympus.

Grounding with Hekate

I've always found grounding a useful and meaningful practice. However, as a practicioner of the spirit model of magic, I've never felt purely energy-based techniques work for me as well as for energy workers. This new technique I've devised employs the help of my tutelary deity, Hekate, and proved much more effective for me. As I chose to explain things thoroughly, the instructions are long but don't fret - the rite itself is very simple. While I initially wanted to note that the practice relies on an established relationship with Hekate, she protested and told me she is willing to give that help to anyone who needs it. So - here we go.
