Untold Story Of Anastácia Escrava: Forced to Wear an Iron Mask for Being Beautiful

She was so beautiful they forced her beautiful face to be hidden, and even denegrated her body after she died as a free woman, to be buried as a slave.

People in Brazil venerate her for her tremendous healing power and her ability to be compassionate to the person who even caused her death.

Happy Feast Day

Saint Anastasia of Sirmium

275 - 303

Feast Day: December 25

Patronage: weavers, widows, martyrs, those suffering from poison

Saint Anastasia the Pharmakolytria, “Deliverer from Potions” was a Roman citizen. Her father was a pagan but her Christian mother secretly baptized and raised her Christian. St. Chrysogonus was also her teacher and advisor. After her mother’s death, her father gave her in marriage to a noble Roman named Publius, a pagan who abused her after he found out she was Christian. After Publius's untimely death she distributed her property to the poor and visited and cared for Christian prisoners. She was captured, imprisoned, condemned to death and burned alive during the Diocletian persecution. She is one of the 7 women mentioned in the Canon of the Mass and in Rome today, the second Christmas Mass is celebrated at St. Anastasia parish.

Saw some art of sewn tongue!Anastasia and I agree it's likely the Ninth is the house of the jawless skull because John sewed her tongue after her failed ascension, but I've also been thinking about this recently because of ongoing discussion about saint relics and how quite a few relic skulls are jawless because, well, as I am intimately familiar with at this point, the mandible is only connected to the skull via joints and soft tissue. On a bare skull you'd need to pin or wire it. So a jawless skull is missing a part of itself, yes, but it's also missing what you could view as external support... or external interference. Fitting for a house that insists on standing on its own.

Not an art post (only because I don’t know enough about them yet to draw it) We don’t talk enough about how Anastasia’s cavalier is named after the literal original adversary the devil and how she’s named after a murdered princess (who is often mythologized to have escaped her fate)

She never walked West Stave alone. With the Dregs at her side, she could stroll by the Menagerie without a glance toward the golden bars on the windows. But tonight, her heart was pounding, and she could hear the roar of blood in her ears as the gilded facade came into view. ... Inej forced herself to look at the Menagerie as she passed. It’s just a place, she told herself. Just another house. How would Kaz see it? Where are the entrances and exits? How do the locks work? Which windows are unbarred? How many guards are posted, and which ones look alert? Just a house full of locks to pick, safes to crack, pigeons to dupe. And she was the predator now, not Heleen in her peacock feathers, not any man who walked these streets. As soon as she was out of sight of the Menagerie, the tight feeling in her chest and throat began to ease. She’d done it. She’d walked alone on West Stave, right in front of the House of Exotics. Whatever was waiting for her in Fjerda, she could face it. A hand hooked around her forearm and yanked her off her feet. Inej regained her balance quickly. She spun on her heel and tried to pull away, but the grip was too strong. “Hello, little lynx.” Inej hissed in a breath and tore her arm free. Tante Heleen. That was what her girls knew to call Heleen Van Houden or risk the back of her hand. To the rest of the Barrel she was the Peacock, though Inej had always thought she looked less like a bird than a preening cat. ... Inej’s vision blurred. Trapped. Trapped. Trapped again. ... Move, her mind screamed, but she couldn’t. Her muscles had locked up; a high whine of terror filled her head. ... Inej stood frozen, shaking. Then she dove into the crowd, eager to disappear. She wanted to break into a run, but she just kept moving steadily, pushing toward the harbor. As she walked, she released the triggers on the sheaths at her forearms, feeling the grips of her daggers slide into her palms. Sankt Petyr, renowned for his bravery, on the right; the slender, bone-handled blade she’d named for Sankta Alina on the left. She recited the names of her other knives, too. Sankta Marya and Sankta Anastasia strapped to her thighs. Sankt Vladimir hidden in her boot, and Sankta Lizabeta snug at her belt, the blade etched in a pattern of roses. Protect me, protect me. She had to believe her Saints saw and understood the things she did to survive. ... The run-in with Tante Heleen had left her shaken, and the heft of the daggers in her hands wasn’t enough to soothe her rattled nerves. She knew she should get used to carrying a pistol, but the weight threw off her balance, and guns could jam or lock in a bad moment. Little lynx. Her blades were reliable. And they made her feel like she’d been born with proper claws.

Constellations Singing the Music of the Spheres

[Intro: Hwa Sa] It's been a shining star, it's been a blue sky Gonna tell you something 'bout my story

[Refrain: SOLAR] It's been a long time We've been together through thick and thin And we won't desert each other now

[Verse 1: Hwa Sa, Whee In] You pushed me away without any regrets Relationships eventually end with farewell I'll have to let you go Set you free, I hope you're free now, woah-oh In the cold air, only your absence remains

[Verse 2: Moon Byul] It was a vast ocean, to begin with And that's where we met, ayy I thank my short rest in troubled waters This song is from my story I hope someday I'll be here, you'll be here But now, just go on your own way

[Pre-Chorus: SOLAR, Whee In & Hwa Sa, Whee In] In the end, we broke up, uh We went on different paths, oh Being surrounded by time We found each other again It took us so long, but—

[Chorus: SOLAR, Whee In] We were destined to meet again Ra-ta-ta-ta, ta-ta-ta, trra-ta-ta-ta Ta-ta-ta, ta-ta-ta We were destined to meet again Ra-ta-ta-ta, ta-ta-ta, trra-ta-ta-ta Ta-ta-ta, ta-ta-ta We were destined to meet again

[Verse 3: SOLAR] You were foolish, I hated you Suspicion overwhelmed me My weak heart became blind, oh-uh

[Verse 4: Moon Byul] Destiny makes me cry Destiny makes me smile The broken compass spins and spins All alone, about to get lost Our memories keep coming back to me And they fade away one by one I hope a single flower grows after the rain

[Pre-Chorus: Whee In, Hwa Sa & SOLAR, Hwa Sa] In the end, we broke up, uh We went on different paths, oh Being surrounded by time We found each other again It took us so long, but—

[Chorus: Whee In, SOLAR, Hwa Sa, SOLAR & Hwa Sa] We were destined to meet again Ra-ta-ta-ta, ta-ta-ta, trra-ta-ta-ta Ta-ta-ta, ta-ta-ta We were destined to meet again Ra-ta-ta-ta, ta-ta-ta, trra-ta-ta-ta Ta-ta-ta, ta-ta-ta (I can wait forever) Ra-ta-ta-ta, ta-ta-ta, trra-ta-ta-ta Ta-ta-ta, ta-ta-ta (I can wait forever) Ra-ta-ta-ta, ta-ta-ta, trra-ta-ta-ta Ta-ta-ta, ta-ta-ta We were destined to meet again

[Refrain: Whee In] It's been a long time We've been together through thick and thin And we won't desert each other now
