Wolfe Creek Trilogy by Kaylie Newell
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Title: Lone Wolfe, Hunter of Her Heart, & The Moonshadow’s Daughter Author: Kaylie Newell Series: Wolfe Creek Number of Pages: 215, 180, 198 Genre:  Paranormal Werewolf & Shifter Romance Publisher:  Blackstone Publishing Date of Original Publication: June 21, 2022 ASIN: B0B25S68XN, B0B22WHKH3, ‎B0B25V3K71
At the end of September I came down with COVID and couldn’t read. Holding a book and moving my eyes hurt from the fatigue. During this time I downloaded audible and started listening to books. This trilogy was the second thing I found to listen to and I was not disappointed.
Lone Wolfe, book one, is about a human who moves to a town called Wolfe Creek to solve a mystery about her best friend who disappeared at the town a year before. She befriends a sheriff’s deputy who agrees to help her find her missing friend and falls in love with him. Maggie soon learns that the town she moves too has a lot of secrets and yet she’s drawn to the town and uncovering the mysteries that are within it.
Hunter of her Heart, book two, is based off of the first one. The younger brother of the sheriff’s deputy holds one of Wolfe Creek’s secrets within himself. The town starts to see him as the bad guy and his long term girlfriend helps him lighten his shadows and ground him.
The Moonshadow’s Daughter, book three, is based off of the town’s doctor as he seeks answers for the death of his wife a year prior, he discovers the mystery of the missing friend of Maggie from book one. As well as peeling back the layers of Wolfe Creek’s own secrets on his journey.
I really enjoyed listening to this series. It was a light storyline, entertaining and humorous at times. The characters are all likeable and the storyline wraps up nicely. I would definitely recommend if you are interested in some light reading and are into paranormal fantasy.

Illyria: Silver Fuller, her spear. Also an anima weapon. Named exactly why you think. The Anima within takes after him...
Ryuu: Iceheart, her zweihander. Yes it was awkward when she found out Estinien named his armor the same, but they also bonded over it.
If I could make a custom weapon, I'd want Ryuu to have a rapier-focus combo named Brilliant Eclipse, with the "rapier" as a crescent moon and the focus as a sun, which when she combined them together to cast becomes black with a bright gold outline.
WoL/FFXIV OC Question(s)!
What is your WoL/OC's favorite/most used weapon? Does it have a name? Is there something special about it, like cool powers or special materials to make it? Maybe some sentimental significance?

Maybe I’m late to the party but the way The Art Of The Dragon Prince book describes the Sun and Moon as sisters is really cool especially when coupled with this art from Tales of Xadia book
Tumblr media
But looking at them I’m surprised I hadn’t seen the similarities sooner.
Sunfire Elves are proud bold warriors, a lot of their culture revolves around hero’s and leaders. Not only that but they known are artisans and metalworkers who craft in gold. The heart of their city was literally known as The Sun Forge and their cities were intricate focusing on architecture.
Moonshadow Elves are discreet noble fighters/assassins, a lot of their culture revolves around honor in sacrifice and protection. They are also metalworkers who craft in silver, known for their weapon craft and beautiful jewelry. But their homes are equally discreet, being hidden from outsiders entirely.
They both value integrity and pride above all else and view themselves as guardians of some kind. Fighters in spirit, and ready to answer the call to protect Xadia.
Thinking about this also reminded me of two pairs of sisters accompanied with this quote.
“Unlike her sister, the shifting, unknowable Moon, the Sun is forthright, radiant, and immutable.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Edit:
I also wonder how close the Moonshadow and Sunfire elves used to be before the rule of Queen Aditi. We see that the Moonshadow elves helped directly with the banishment of humanity but then immediately afterwards were ordered and forced by Queen Aditi to destroy their most sacred place.

i love your au ,it's one of the main things that refill my love for the owl house after the show ended , the wayfarer is my favourite ,
glad you like the AU! Way would be happy to know they have fans:D
Tumblr media
Also, it's kinda fun to hear that things I create can inspire or motivate someone else to do things in the fandom. The reason I'm still very invested is because the Moonshadow AU by @a-e-redacted repeatedly stabbing me in the heart, and @curseofhyperfixation cursing me with a hyperfixation on the archivist lore with theories and their own AU, that kind of spiralled into me writing more in mine. On one of the toh couches someone wrote that it made them write a whole fanfic based on the scene and I swear I heard the 'Circle of Life' playing in the distance

Lover
Sirius climbed into Remus’s lap, wearing the boxers with the lurid red hearts on them that they’d bought for each other as a joke. He somehow still managed to make them look sexy. Not that Remus was biased or anything after all this time. 
Remus watched him as he settled on top of Remus like a blanket and grinned up at him mischievously. He shifted, spreading his legs a little and moving his head to the side, opening himself to whatever Sirius had in mind.
“Happy Valentine’s Day, lover,” Sirius whispered in his ear, biting him as he did so. 
Remus drew his breath in sharply and put the book he was reading on the bedside table, laying his reading glasses on top of it.
“Lover?” he said, raising his eyebrow as he ran his hand through Sirius’s amazingly still thick hair. 
“What would you prefer, Moonshadow? Partner? Husband? Boy toy?” Sirius purred, punctuating each question with a kiss.
“All of the above…though I think I’m too old for ‘boy toy.’”
“Haha, never,” Sirius said, pressing himself against Remus and wrapping his arms around him. 
“Boy toy it is, then,” Remus said with a laugh as he purposely tangled their legs together, and returned Sirius’s hungry kisses.

Title: Moonshadow Ship: Jacaerys x Helaena WC: 859 Rating: Gen Summary: Jace and Helaena tell stories beneath the light of the moon. Written for the @hotd-bigbang prompt: Moon Notes: Many many thanks to @acrossthesestars for her beta powers and helping me find the jace and helaena pictures and to @selfproclaimedunicorn reassuring me it wasn't terrible to begin with. this story isn't specifically related to any of my other projects, but you are welcome to consider it part of Maiden canon, or for last year's entry, The Lighting of the Blaze
Tumblr media
The pair of them sat atop Visenya’s tower - the tallest in the Holdfast. Jace’s heart jumped into his throat when Helaena had clambered upon the red ledge, the wind catching at her silver hair, her laughter dancing on the breeze.
“You’ll fall,” he told her, but followed, as he always did, to perch beside her. The height was dizzying in a way that flying did not quite catch. He thought it was, perhaps, because there was no safety of his dragon beneath him. Just stone, warm from the day’s sun and his own practiced balance to be safe.
He tangled his fingers through Helaena’s, not for a moment thinking that he’d be able to pull her back should she fall. No, instead he would fall with her. She had woken up, frantic and tearful, and found her way to his rooms a night not so long ago, gasping as she crawled into bed with him. 
“I fell I fell I lost my wings I lost them they were taken I fell I fell.” 
Helaena had babbled those words over and over until his neck and nightshirt were soaked with her tears and he had to keep her sobs muffled lest one of the guards hear and discover them.
Her fingers were delicate, deceptively fragile when he knew how strong her grip was; how those very fingers could turn to claws just as they could stroke gently down the line of his spine.
“The Red Priest in the market told a story,” she whispered now, months later, far less frightened than before. The night was bright; the moon hung heavy and round in the sky, the blanket of twinkling stars so beautiful and wondrous, streaked with distant clouds that caught the light.He felt so small beneath the expanse. “He said that Azor Ahai thrust his sword into the breast of his wife, Nissa Nissa, and her cry of anguish and ecstasy left a crack across the moon.”
“I don’t see a crack,” Jace mused, his gaze searching across the bright shine of it. Dark blotches, certainly, but no tell-tale crack of an egg. “That’s a cruel way to treat the woman he loved the most in the world.”
“Are you saying you would not use my soul and blood to forge a great blade that would save the world?” Helaena laughed, her breath warm against his ear as the stone was warm beneath him. Jace squeezed her hand and her fingers tightened around his, reassuring. “There’s another story. There were two moons, my maid told me. One wandered too close to the sun and cracked open, birthing the dragons.”
“One of my grandfather’s crewmen told me a tale from Volantis.” It was Jace’s turn now. “That a shepherd approached the only dragon, to tame it by feeding him sheep. They would meet beneath the light of the moon.”
“In the night?” Helaena asked, a curious furrow to her brow that he brushed a kiss against to smooth. “But why is the shepherd visiting a dragon at night?”
“Because she was watching the flock to protect them from wolves,” he told her, tracking along the pictures in the sky, seeking out the fish, the lion, the hunter. “A dragon, she thought, would surely be the finest protector of her flock, for what wolf or thief would dare rouse the anger of the dragon.” She hummed softly but did not interrupt, her fingers playing with his. “Each night she came, feeding him one of the sheep to sate his hunger, so he might trust her, and eventually the shepherd lay with the dragon. The moons turned and the shepherd gave birth to more dragons.”
Helaena’s teeth scraped against her lower lip. “So the shepherd lay with the dragon and the dragon��� fit?”
He snorted. “She was a very special woman.”
She shivered, giggling. “So the shepherd lay with the dragon. There were no other dragons?”
“I guess not. That’s what the story says: it was the only dragon. And that’s how the other dragons came to be, I suppose.”
“They do say that Old Valyria was founded by sheep herders,” Helaena mused. He felt her carefully shift to rest her chin upon his shoulder, and Jace turned his head slightly to brush his nose against hers. She smelled of citrus, of lemon balm and mint. “Kivio biantys,” she murmured. 
His cheeks turned red, his heart stuttering at the whisper. Promised shepherd, caretaker of the soul. Soulmates, as the Westerosi called it. His mouth went dry, his throat bobbing as he swallowed.
“Did you dream this?” he asked, the Valyrian he’d learned from the cradle rolling off his tongue, the accent of his mother, of Laenor, of his grandmother coating the words. It was warm, different from the elegant polish of Helaena’s maester taught tongue. Sometimes he felt they should exchange how they sounded, to match their insides.
“Daor.” She blinked, soft and slow, matching lavender gaze reflecting the shine of stars, the pierce of moonglow that caught on her hair and Jace thought she was otherworldly with it - the woman of the tale he’d spun for her. “I just know it.”

So the beginning of season 7 is going to be very chaotic and emotional for everyone as they all converge on Katolis. Especially when Runaan arrives.
Runaan's arrival in Katolis is going to be a complicated one, the humans won't trust him as he killed their last king but the Sunfire elves that arrive with Amaya and Janai are going to have a completely different view of him.
Let's start with the humans first.
HUMANS:
As mentioned above the humans of Katolis and Duren ( I'm assuming that Aanya will also travel to Katolis to help out) will not see his arrival as a positive, he killed their last king and thanks to Viren, Duren believes that a Moonshadow assassin came to kill their queen. And in the aftermath of Sol Regem's attack tensions and emotions will be running high.
Back at the beginning of season 5 Opeli wanted to arrest Rayla for breaking into Viren's lab and for taking Runaan's bowblade. The only reason she wasn't imprisoned was because Callum voucher for her and used his position as a prince to free her.
So I imagine that the chance of someone at least attempting to arrest and imprison Runaan will be high and it's going to take multiple people to prevent that from happening (more on that later).
And then we have Ezran. Something I want people to remember is that he doesn't know about Rayla's parents and Rayla and Callum's quest to free them. So he's not only going to be dealing with the destruction in Katolis but also the fact that Runaan is alive and there and his brother and friend didn't tell him about their plan to bring him back. This complete lack of communication, while not done out of malice is going to affect his relationship with Callum and Rayla during season 7. He's going to be understandably angry at seeing Runaan again and will be upset at the other 2 for not telling him about their plans.
Meanwhile he's going have to deal with seeing Runaan alive, the elf who killed his dad, wandering around free while Ezran is now an orphan. He's going to hate him but he's also going to see how much he means to Rayla and that he's Rayla's father. It's going to stir up so many complicated emotions in him and it's going to really test him in regards to how he deals with Runaan. He's justified in being angry with and hating Runaan but he's also Rayla's dad and so any action he takes against Runaan will impact her too. And if Callum (or anyone else) tries to defend Runaan and tries to form a relationship with him I can see Ezran feeling very isolated and alone. The real test for Ezran will be if he can make the right decision, a decision of love, not strength or anger or the easy choice. A choice that Harrow was once faced with almost 3 years ago. And we saw what he chose and what that led to.
Which leads me to my next hope. I hope that Runaan's presence in Xadia will force Ezran, Callum etc to re-examine the events of the beginning of the show. Because while it's understandable that Ezran will feel anger towards Runaan he isn't solely responsible for Harrow's death, Zubeia, Viren and Harrow all share responsibility for Harrow's death. I'd like and hope to see Ezran re-examine and unpack his feelings towards Zubeia and Harrow and realise that he's not only still upset and angry about that night but that he's also angry at his friend Zubeia and his father Harrow for the choices that they made.
Tumblr media
Because like Harrow he hasn't healed and truly moved on from that fateful night and he'll need to in order to truly heal and ensure that he doesn't repeat the same mistakes that Harrow made.
Tumblr media
Tumblr media
This doesn't mean that he'll forgive Runaan by the end of the season or even stop being angry with him but I do think it will be an important step forward for Ezran in helping him heal and grow and would pave the way for Ezran forgiving Runaan one day in the future. To stop the coldness in his heart from taking control and leading him from the path of love.
Tumblr media
ELVES
The Sunfire elves turning up in Katolis to help them in their time of need is also going to complicate things when Runaan turns up.
We learnt in Bloodmoon Huntress that Runaan is a legend, for his skills as an assassin but mostly for his heart. And so, unlike the humans I think that the Sunfire elves will see Runaan's arrival as a positive, especially if they, like the Moonshadow elves, believed him to be dead for the last 2 years. To them he isn't a monster, he's a hero, a living legend that some may be in awe of.
Tumblr media
They won't allow such a legendary figure be arrested, which brings me to Janai and Amaya.
There's every chance that Janai actually knows Runaan and if she does and if their friends then this will further complicate things as she's going to want to help out and defend Runaan while also keeping the peace with her new nephew Ezran. Not to mention that Amaya may also have very complicated feelings about Runaan but as both a new queen of the Sunfire elves and Ezran's aunt she will have to navigate this situation very carefully.
I imagine that Runaan (and potentially Rayla) will probably stay with the Sunfire elves while they stay in Katolis, although I'm not sure how long our key characters will stay there before they decide or are convinced to move.

so like one of the wildest things about CHET is one of the early things that got me onto the theory at all was the way it would perfectly parallel and invert 1x04 - Rayla goes in alone to find something related (unknowingly) to Aaravos because of Callum’s pursuit of magic/curiosity, once she’s in danger he switches gears, she gets taken captive, the boys come to rescue her with Bait, they escape but not without Callum doing something Rayla hates, and she hands over the cube citing, “I hope it was worth it to you putting everyone’s lives in danger” only this time, presumably, it would be.
However, even with all that in mind, now the 1x04 parallels have the potential to be even more evident, because the other undercurrent of the episode (and the one that more specifically affects Rayla outright) is the belief that elves are bloodthirsty monsters
Tumblr media Tumblr media
and we know now (and probably why) Kim’Dael is appearing in S5, so
Tumblr media
continues as always

In the heart of the forest, where the shadows play, A cottage sleeps beneath the moon's soft sway. Purple hues dance on leaves and stone, A witch's refuge, where magic is grown.
The mirror whispers, reflecting the night, Bathed in the glow of the moon's gentle light. Spells are woven, dreams take flight, In Moonshadow Cottage, beneath the stars so bright.

What if Soren throws himself in-front of Claudia to protect her, only to have Terry save both of them; with Terry saying it was worth it because he couldn't let Claudia lose more of her family, for Claudia to say that Terry IS Part of Her Family
What if Soren was forced to kill Claudia..

Every Armor Description in TDP: Xadia
There will be no accompanying visuals on this post, the designs are already on my blog under the individual character's tags. This is a compilation of all of them for people who don't want to scroll through all the images to get to the juicy lore. I reccomend everyone read Rayla/Runaan's, Callum/Karim's, Claudia's, and Soren/Viren's if you care about the show's lore.

Stormrunner Sabatons - You know what? The Eternal Storm could use a good kick in the butt, too.
Callum and Karim’s Armor
Flamedance Tassels - Dance, little flame, dance to a silent song.
Flamedance Chemise - Warm our hearts and bodies, keep our spirits strong.
Flamedance Sandals - Dance, little flame, dance - for the night is very long.

Janai’s Armor
Golden Knight Vambraces - Gold, for the Sun’s light.
Golden Knight Hauberk - White, for her radiance.
Golden Knight Treads - Red, for her power.
Moonfire Grips - Some say the Moon is the Sun’s shadow, a pale imitator, a sad reflection.
Moonfire Tunic - Some say the Sun kills the Moon hen she dares grow bright enough to challenge her radiance.
Moonfire Greaves - The truth? The Moon and the Sun are sisters, a fire charred between them.
Empyrean Gloves Some - Great Climbers keep an open mind about strategy.
Empyrean Brigandine - One path to victory is to beat everyone else to the prize…
Empyrean Stompers -  …another path to victory is to beat everyone else with your fists.
Soren and Viren’s Armor
Blacksteel Grips - Something echoes in the metal.
Blacksteel Aegis - Does it sing, or does it scream?
Blacksteel Boots - What did they bury down there beneath the earth?
Ghostfeather bands - “Bit by bit the moon fades away, then bit by bit it will brighten again. That is our cycle.”
Ghostfeather Treads - “...for those who will come after you, think on all you will give them.” - Lujanne
Ghostfeather Tunic - “For those you have left behind, think on all they have given you…”
Skyblazer Vambraces - A group of elves called the Skyblazers were the first to ever attempt the Great Climb
Skyblazer Collar - Their ambition drove them higher, higher, and higher still…
Skyblazer Sandals - …but hubris brought them down again.

Late night thoughts about ghosting.
We don't actually know how far ghosting extends. We've only gotten two examples of a living ghosted elf meeting an elf who ghosted them, and they both happened in the village where the ghost ritual took place. Ethari with Rayla in the show, and Elder Gwenyn of the Gloaming Glade with Feathershawl in ToX.
In both cases, the ghosted elf remained invisible and inaudible to the ones who ghosted them.
Tumblr media
Looking closely at other examples doesn't actually tell us much. We don't know for sure whether Rayla ghosted her parents along with the Silvergrove, but if Ethari couldn't get out of ghosting Rayla, then Rayla probably couldn't get out of ghosting her parents, either.
She could see art Callum drew of them, though, and she could see their faces on the coins.
Runaan ghosted his friends, and he could see their faces on the coins too.
There's a common assumption that this is possible because the ghosting spell only works inside the village where the ritual was done. But we don't actually know that for sure. We've never seen a ghoster and ghostee interact in person outside their relevant village.
I've a theory about how ghosting works. It's similar to the way assassins seem to track their targets: they both sense hearts. The powerhouse of the physical body. Not a spirit, not a consciousness, but the manifestation of life itself - one of the things most precious to Moonshadow elves.
If a Moonshadow assassin can learn to track a specific heartbeat for mission reasons, then it can be located for ghost reasons too. Not to track it, but the opposite: to block it out entirely. Their magically innate sense of life will not be able to pick up on that one heart unless the spell is reversed.
There are pros and cons to limiting this effect to a single village, and to making it universal. But I don't see Rayla being able to see her parents in the world beyond life and death as an indication of either option, since she was seeing their souls, not any physical manifestation of them.
All this to say, I do not know if Ethari will be able to see Rayla until the ghosting spell is lifted, no matter where he meets her. If he encounters Callum and Zym outside the Silvergrove before the ghosting is lifted, he may be able to see them. It's extra angsty if not, though - how cruel to forever hide a person from your sight simply for allying with a Ghost for one dance!
Tumblr media
I want Ethari to be able to see her and give her the biggest hug ever. But the inherent angst in Runaan looking at Ethari and realizing his husband ghosted their daughter and needs Runaan to pass messages for him is so tasty I want to eat it with my bare hands.
My man is not immune to the horrible consequences of his actions any more than anyone else in this show.
Let 👏 Ethari 👏 fuck👏 up👏
