you talking about kerana and tau was such a (great) jumpscare because i've never seen anyone mention that myth online! and i swear if you post those illustrations of the tupi-guarani gods you said you had in a comment my soul is yours

You made me dig in my very OLD folders to find my tupi-guarani art. I couldn't find Tau and Kerana tho but I know I have an usb somewhere that have all the drawing I made from high school. But I did find some in my drive!

The first one is an illustration based on the story of Naipi and Taruba.

The story of Tamba-Taja!

And the god of love, Ruda! Though he has wings, even if there's no source that ever mention if he had any… I do remember why I gave him wings, it’s because he lives among the clouds. So I was like… "he has wings. that makes sense!"

I even made a chibi of him... And the bird was supposed to be the Horneror bird.... Even tho they arent blue. T.T

There are some more drawings but I don't like them so I wont show it and the other arts are in that usb that I need to find.

Brazil signs demarcation of Guarani indigenous territories

Brazil’s Minister of Justice and Public Security, Ricardo Lewandowski, signed declaratory ordinances in Brasília recognizing seven indigenous territories of the Guarani people in the state of São Paulo. The designated territories are Jaraguá, Pindoty/Araça-Mirim, Guaviraty, Tapy'i/Rio Branquinho, Amba Porã, Djaiko-aty, and Peguaoty.

The official recognition occurred on Wednesday (Oct. 23), in the presence of Minister of Indigenous Peoples Sonia Guajajara, marking the end of an eight-year hiatus in the demarcation of indigenous lands in this state.

To finalize the demarcation process, a final step remains: the publication of a decree signed by the country’s president.

Propaganda!

Cihuacōātl was one of a number of motherhood and fertility goddesses in Aztec mythology. She was sometimes known as Quilaztli. Cihuacōātl was especially associated with midwives, and with the sweat lodges where midwives practiced. She is paired with Quilaztli and was considered a protectress of the Chalmeca people and patroness of the city of Culhuacan. She helped Quetzalcoatl create the current race of humanity by grinding up bones from the previous ages, and mixing it with his blood. She is also the mother of Mixcoatl, whom she abandoned at a crossroads. Tradition says that she often returns there to weep for her lost son, only to find a sacrificial knife.

Tupã is considered to be the creator of the universe, of humanity and of the spirits of good and evil in Guarani mythology referred to as Angatupyry and Tau respectively. Tupã is more specifically considered the creator of light and his residence is the Sun. Tupã was not actually a god, but rather a manifestation of God, in the form of thunder. Tupã, according to Câmara Cascudo, is an adaptation of catechism, which also existed in concept for the Amerindians, but as the "sound of thunder" (tu-pá or tu-pã), an unknown (and thus feared) phenomenon.

so we all know as fantasy writers that you need to google your made up words before you start using them.

i'm now extending this rule to pharmaceutical companies:

You are in desperate need of more innocent questions.

So! If you were to make your own musical based on a myth, but it had to be a Pantheon other than Greek or The Bible, which mythological pantheon would you choose?

Optional bonus: If you had to make a musical using one FICTIONAL Pantheon from a fantasy or Sci Fi series (EX: Lotr, one of the DnD Pantheons, Legend of Zelda, etc) which would you pick?

Well, if I have to pick, then it’s Tupi-Guarani mythology, specifically the story of Kerana and Tau.

I’m undecided about whether to make it as faithful as possible or give it a romantic twist, like how some Hades and Persephone adaptations do. But Kerana and Tau definitely fit that kind of relationship dynamic as well.

For those who don’t know the myth: Tau, the evil spirit, fell in love with the human girl Kerana. He took different forms to woo her, but she always denied him. Eventually, Tau decided to simply abduct her, because that’s how every myth goes. During the abduction, Tau’s brother came to Kerana’s aid, and the two brothers fought each other for seven days straight. On the eighth day, Tau managed to flee with Kerana. This led to the moon goddess Jacy cursing them so that all their children would be born as monsters.

They had seven kids, and one of them is my little precious boy, Tejú Jaguá. He’s the oldest and the scariest-looking of all their children—so scary, in fact, that the god Tupã (Nhanderuvuçú) gifted Tejú Jaguá’s personality to make him calm and harmless to other beings. Tejú Jaguá earned the title Protector of Fruits and has a love for honey! 😭

Anyway, I imagine the musical could end with the story of Porâsý, who slayed all of Tau and Kerana’s sons by burning them and herself alive in a cave. The moon goddess Jacy then made Porâsý a star to honor her sacrifice. It’s gruesome, but I like the idea of humanizing the sons to add emotional depth, to then have them be killed at the end.

As for the musical style? Well, obviously, I’d love something in the vein of Hans Zimmer, mixed with traditional Tupi-Guarani music.

Thank you for listening to my ted talk!

Avá-Guarani Indigenous people are a target of violent attacks in southern Brazil

In a new attack, big farmers kill the communities' domestic animals and spray pesticides around the houses

The Avá-Guarani community, located in the Tekoha Guasu Guavira Indigenous Land in Guaíra, in the state of Paraná, was the target of yet another violent attack by big farmers on Thursday morning (17). The conflict left two Indigenous people injured, one after being run over by a truck and the other beaten with sticks by men identified as employees of a rural property in the region.   

Based on reports from residents of the community, a truck and four tractors loaded with poison advanced on the Yvyju Avary community, inside the Indigenous Land, at around 10 am, allegedly at the behest of a big farmer who is demanding the expulsion of the Indigenous people from the area. The National Public Security Force was called in to intervene, and the victims were taken to a hospital. “The big farmers have a truck full of non-Indigenous people making attacks. They've run over people and also killed the community's dogs,” said Indigenous leader Nazany Martins.   

According to the Guarani Yvyrupa Commission (CGY, in Portuguese), the Avá-Guarani community live in constant tension due to big farmers' attacks against Indigenous territories that are being regularized. One big farmer in the region agreed to negotiate the sale of his land for the demarcation of the Indigenous Lands, while another chose to resist violently, escalating the conflicts.   

This attack is part of a series of aggressions that have been taking place in recent months. Last Sunday (13), the Y'hovy village, also in Guaíra, was shot at from a neighboring big farm after a suspicious car drove around the area filming Indigenous leaders. Although no one was injured in the incident, the atmosphere of insecurity persists.
