#just looks really stupid

[spinningbagel]

I would love to see a map of The Isles, or just hear stuff about the different locations :D

Sorry it’s taken,,,like five hours to respond I lowkey passed out

Anyways!! Map!! I did one awhile ago and, despite how goofy it looks (you can only do so much with the free version of inkarnate) it gets the point across

(It doesn’t include the floating Islands, I couldn’t figure out a way to show them)

So, there’s the four corners I guess you could call them, and they’re pretty much just different climates. Technically, they’re part of the land kingdom and are under Sapphires rule, but excluding Fanterra, they each have their own respective rulers. (Sapphire, as much as she tries cannot be in several places at once.)

I think the map is pretty self explanatory as to what each of the climates are like in the areas so I won’t go into too much detail about them.

Then in the centre is the Lake of Kings- or more commonly known as the Sea Kingdom. There’s not much to say about it other than there’s two rivers that lead out to sea and there’s two major kingdoms- these being the lake (the “main” kingdom) and the sea, the rivers aren’t big enough to actually house anyone and are more like the highways of the water.

And they’re not shown but the floating islands are obviously above that, with the “main hub” sitting over the lake and the castle just above that. There’s branching islands off of the main hub that are a number of things, housing, farms, buildings like libraries and schools. Basically the extra things surround the main hub (which gives it its name, it’s in the centre of the islands and is therefore seen as the main hub)

And that’s pretty much it and like I said, it’s pretty goofy looking but it gets the point across as to what everything is, what it’s called and where it’s placed. The layout may change one day I’m not too sure. The current is a little iffy with me but that’s future problems for a future Bagel.

brain rotting about how fucked it is to be a darkner again lately. how do you care about being abandoned by your gods if they never seemed to care that much about you in the first place

one of the things about being an educator is that you hear what parents want their kids to be able to do a lot. they want their kid to be an astronaut or a ballerina or a politician. they want them to get off that damn phone. be better about socializing. stop spending so much time indoors. learn to control their own temper. to just "fucking listen", which means to be obedient.

one of the things i learned in my pedagogy classes is that it's almost always easier to roleplay how you want someone to act. it's almost always easier to explain why a rule exists, rather than simply setting the rule and demanding adherence.

i want my kids to be kind. i want them to ask me what book they should read next, and i want to read that book with them so we can discuss it. i want my kid to be able to tell me hey that hurt my feelings without worrying i'll punish them. i want my kid to be proud of small things and come running up to me to tell me about them. i want them to say "nah, i get why this rule exists, but i get to hate it" and know that i don't need them to be grateful-for-the-roof-overhead while washing the dishes. i want them to teach me things. i want them to say - this isn't safe. i'm calling my mom and getting out of this. i want them to hear me apologize when i do fuck up; and i want them to want to come home.

the other day a parent was telling me she didn't understand why her kid "just got so angry." this woman had flown off the handle at me.

my dad - traditional catholic that he is - resents my sentiment of "gentle parenting". he says they'll grow up spoiled, horrible, pretentious. granola, he spits.

i am going to be kind to them. i am going to set the example, i think. and whatever they choose become in the meantime - i'm going to love them for it.

The tragic idea that the Betrayers loved their siblings so much that it ended up being what drove them apart. They didn't want to settle for anything that could hurt their family, and mortals were doing so, either directly (a mortal usurping one of them) or indirectly (emotionally hurting them during the Schism by just. dying so much). To the Betrayers, it wasn't worth it. They wanted their beloved family to leave and go somewhere that wouldn’t hurt them.

To them, it's the primes who are the betrayers. The primes were motivated by more than just love for their immediate family - they loved their creation, too, and more than that, felt a responsibility for it. They would rather fight their own siblings than leave it.

We saw all the gods love and protect each other during the opening of Downfall. The Betrayers were not uniquely evil from the start. They wanted to save themselves and their family from hardship and suffering, even if it meant leaving their creation, their game, and in response their siblings locked them away. Not only do they not love mortals, they view mortals as this corruptive force that somehow turned their family against them. Do they think that, if they succeed in exterminating them, the Primes will be freed from their influence? Maybe - perhaps some of them are waiting to forgive and embrace their siblings, but far from all, I suspect. Asmodeus certainly expressed during Calamity that he didn’t so much want to be reunited with his siblings as he wanted to punish them. He was betrayed by the ones he loved most for the sake of a game! Maybe togetherness and forgiveness was once an obtainable goal, but not anymore. Even if the Betrayers succeeded in ending Exandria, the Primes would never forgive them, and they would never forgive the primes. Their family can never be whole again because of, as they see it, the toxic influence of mortals. So they hate mortals for this influence, but more than that, they hate their siblings for being so weak as to fall for it.
