"Do you really think you can threaten me into compliance with mere horses and some sharpened sticks? Cease this absurd provocation or I will turn your woeful excuse of a city into glass." - Abbess Prisca

Prisca is the figurehead of the NORN-1 facility, a subterranean mountain fortress tasked with stewarding spent nuclear fuel until it is rendered inert. She has held onto this position for over 160 years, resolutely preserving the organization's values and consolidating more of its internal power for herself. Even though she's more tubes than flesh at this point, Prisca refuses to retire. No one can be trusted to continue the work that must be done.

the radiant emperor series may be a buddy comedy, but it is also the worst group project ever. zhu and ouyang spend most of both books working towards the same goal in very different ways. a fraction of this is actually spent working together. ouyang fucks off halfway through hwdtw to do the thing they agreed to HIS way. they attempt to kill each other several times.

the third prince is so interesting to me bc he's made of the themes. he subconsciously attempts to replicate his parents' power dynamic with his first (and only) real relationship except it's not even a real relationship bc his evil mistress is manipulating him the whole time. he looks like the physical ideal of warrior masculinity (you know. the one who died in the last book) except that he sucks and is useless and can't fulfill his singular purpose and literally everyone knows it. he's a hollow shell with nothing inside but also he's intelligent and perceptive and a whole person underneath it all but also it doesn't even matter who he is bc he's being slowly suffocated by other people's expectations and agendas but also he has no choice but to be nothing bc he can't be great. "what if you were willing to do anything to get what you wanted" well what if you didn't even know what you wanted. what if what you wanted was so completely opposed to who you are and what you were made for that you could never actually believe that you could have it. what then. he's happy about two people being tortured to death bc his mom didn't like them. he's the living embodiment of a crumbling heirless dynasty. he's a blushing maiden being seduced by an older man with ill intentions and he's a powerful royal whose lover is wholly reliant upon him for survival. he and baoxiang are both punishing each other for the things they hate about themselves. his death causes the end of the book. and he's been dead since the day he was born.

daily sketch 1.21.24

two more lil environs and some real quick juni sketches for my dailies tonight

[cosmermaid]

I’m re-reading Syl’s POV chapter from Rhythm of War and noticing how similar her nature/base personality is to Shallan’s. They are both prone to playful sass, repressing their pain, have a fascination with the natural world and express it through some sort of art (Shallan by drawing, Syl by shapeshifting), and seeing themselves as more than one entity. Syl not to the extent of Shallan, since Shallan has alters, Syl just has “responsible brain” and “child brain”. Their characters are still pretty different, but I feel like that is entirely on how they were shaped by circumstance rather than their natural personality. I feel like Syl would be a Lightweaver rather than a Windrunner if she herself was a radiant instead of a spren.

"I am to become the instrument in which we measure the long wait" ― Sister Alara

the uniforms of old, tarp and tyvek, offer little protection from the forces contained behind galena's gate, and yet they have been worn for centuries by the nuns who maintain the vault's inner seals and mechanisms.

no instrument is yet capable of accurately measuring the levels of radiation contained beyond the gate. rough estimations are instead calculated from the poisoned nun herself and the time she takes to expire.
