"Emerald Roots"

As charged particles from the solar wind bombard the upper atmosphere, a glowing plasma forms and dances in the sky. The green light of the plasma reflects off moistened sand, rippled by the passage of wind and tide.  (Image credit: L. Tenti; via 2023 Astronomy POTY) Read the full article

Silly Grandkids With A Camera

[bayofwolves]

with the way asc is going, canon riverclan is turning into a carbon copy of riverclan in starclan's champions and i'm kinda sad ab it 😭

(if you didn't know, starclan's champions ((name soon to change)) is a warriors trilogy i'm writing that takes place a couple generations after dotc. it focuses on six felines ((one is a lynx so i can't say cats)) who are used like tools, game pieces if you will, by starclan over the course of their lives.)

like one of the major plot points in starclan's champions is sandripple's conquest of riverclan. sandripple is a rather plain and unassuming warrior who is frustrated with his clan's leadership. the clan is, at present, led by fogstar -- a 20 something year old (yes, in human years) hag who does nothing for his clan except abuse his sons to the point of them fleeing and rot away in his den thereafter. he lets his deputy, the gorgeous and charismatic spruceflower, and healer, the plagued-by-visions lilyeyes, handle the rest. as absent as he may be, the ever looming presence of fogstar is enough to keep riverclan in a state of fear. needless to say, sandripple is FED UP!

long story short he drowns fogstar, letting the river carry his body away to hide his tracks, and settles down to enjoy a better life under sprucestar's leadership. however, his qualm is that she makes tideflow, sandripple's estranged sister, deputy. now, sandripple has no real desire for leadership (yet). but the sister he despises rising to power is something he cannot stand.

when sprucestar loses all of her lives in a tragic accident, sandripple is shocked. he feels like he failed somehow. his murder of fogstar was for nothing. he's sure as hell not gonna let tideflow lead this clan, so for perhaps the first time he says to himself "fuck it then, i'll do it myself".

sandripple kills his sister before the entire clan, and with this grisly deed, rises to power. the cats are too tired to fight back. fogstar's long reign has made them weary.

he then continues his killing spree, murdering his former mentor (who was cruel to him), his father (who abandoned him) and lilyeyes (the only cat who might yet stop him). it's clearly a fear tactic, fear and control, but sandripple genuinely starts to enjoy it, too. he's always had a dark streak.

anyway, one of my protagonists comes to the rescue and finally kills him after a day-long, gruelling, bloody battle. the youngest of fogstar's sons returns from self-exile to assume leadership of his former clan and riverclan eventually heals. but i just find it so funny how the plot of asc is moving exactly like my own story 😭 like WHAT. especially with the release of thunder i'm recognizing the parallels. forget the hawkfrost comparisons, splashtail is actually sandripple 2.0

"There's nothing!" ...a comment often uttered by people when talking about deserts. Nothing...a very relative word. Relative to deserts, it usually means you 'saw' nothing because you were not looking. Deserts can be a hive of activity like this area in Mendoza Province in Argentina near the Rio Grande. . . . #desertscape #sandripples #desertpanorama #riogrande #mendoza #argentina #wildcamping #exploreargentina #visitargentina #findyouradventure #trekexpedevac #expeditionplanning #trekking #solotravel #trlt #desolation #remoteplaces #igers_argentina #igersargentina #natgeowild #natgeotravel (at Mendoza, Argentina)

Day 17, Firesight! Elder of Moorclan.

Firesight is a primarily black tortie tom with yellow/green eyes.

Firesight is the grandfather of Sandripple.

A former medicine cat and former mentor of Weaseltounge, Firesight is a wise, hot tempered old tom. Widely respected by his clanmates and often giving out advice to young apprentices and warriors, Firesight can usually be found stretched outside of the elder's den basking in the sunlight. Firesight is currently the only elder of Moorclan, and was the primary caretaker of his grandkit Sandripple when her parents died, meaning a young Sandripple was often seen hiding in his dark fur and in the medicine den with him. Not long after Weaseltounge received their full name he retired to the elder's den after a flare of bad arthritis left him unable to perform his duties. He doesn't move around much anymore but still stretches and makes sure he doesn't lock up like that again.
