#the crystal structure resonates with their energy

[iturbide]

How old would be like, an actual adult for a manakete? Nowi's "1,000 something" and she seems. Like a child. Tiki's what, like 3,000? She seems like an adult... is it like humans x 100? How does the dragonstone thing work? Are they born with them now or does each generation have to seal their power in stones? Do taguel actually need stones or is that a gameplay mechanic?

At least for me, I tend to interpret dragon ages along the lines of human age x 100 based on what we've seen in most of the Fire Emblem games. Tiki when she meets Marth is somewhere in the neighborhood of 1,100, but she looks like a kid -- at best a very young teenager, more likely a preteen, so 10-11 range by my read. Nowi, similarly, says she's over 1,000 and both looks and acts like a kid, so I struggle to see her as older than a teenager (and a particularly childish one at that). By the time of Awakening, though, Tiki's around 3,000 years old, and is clearly an adult at that point, so that really does seem to line up with the dragon age being two orders of magnitude removed from the human equivalent.

As for the dragonstone thing...that's open to interpretation, I think. I know some people interpret them as something dragons create themselves (@anankos has a fun bit in one of their old Fates fics that goes into it), but in Awakening it's frustrating because dragonstones are sold and they come in multiple flavors. Awakening why do you do this to me.

So I've tentatively adopted a concept where dragons (and taguel) use a specific type of stone as a form of energy storage: specific stones have a crystal matrix able to receive magical energy, and by taking advantage of this specific resonance, dragons can siphon their power into the stone in their possession and adopt a human guise; if they need to transform, they pull the energy back out to resume their original form.

Of course, I'm damned either way because Awakening's mechanics make no sense and a dragon/taguel can't transform without a stone, leaving them trapped in a human guise -- which frankly makes no sense: if the stone breaks, the power can't go anywhere but back where it came from, so logically they should be stuck in beast form rather than the other way around. So I picked my battles and decided that when I work with dragons and taguel, if they don't have a stone, they don't look human. (On a related note note, if a dragon or taguel loses their stone but it doesn't break, they'll be stuck in human form for a while but eventually revert back to dragon form if they don't find it because eventually their energy levels are going to replenish naturally and they'll transform back whether they like it or not. Nowi has this problem...a lot.)

The true origin and purpose of the pyramids

Basic theory of pyramidology is, that inside of a pyramid is accumulating and transforming universal energy called "orgon". Pyramids in their principal shape polarizing physical vacuum on both contradictory energies that is why they can act both as a transmitter or receiver, is a vibrational device which is able to receive, transform, concentrate, direct and emit energy. In an ancient Egypt they were energizing and uplifting vibrations in whole society.

Pyramid contains of a two words "pyro" or fire and "amid" or center. Pyramid is a device with fire in the center. Where center is well known king's chamber. Precisely in this center most of an energy is concentrated from where it spiraling to the top.

Builders of Egyptian pyramids used technique of harmonic resonance. They strictly observe measurements and proportions, which allows connection to the Earth's harmonics vibrations. Using words sacral geometry in a connection with pyramids we mean, that a builders were using same proportions and ratios, which we can find in nature and whole universe namely golden section (phi Φ=1.618033...)

They were also using a principles of resonance and sound to neutralize earth's gravity to be able to move a massive blocks. This effect occurs by tuning sound source to an exact frequency of a material. Pyramids where also connected to cooperative complex.

Egyptian pyramids were build mostly of limestone and crystal. Atoms of crystal vibrate at the same frequency as a planet earth, by this resonance an electric piezoelectric effect is occurring in inner mass of pyramid . Where one form of limestone is used as a isolating material the other form with magnesium is used as a negatively charged coat of an pyramid. It's acting like a massive wire. Granite is slightly radioactive which helps to ionizing air in all passages and caverns. Great Pyramid of Giza has also spiritual connection mostly to Orion and Sirius.

One of the functions of a pyramid is star gate and multiverse vortex. Pyramid as a portal allows people to reconnect with a source unity consciousness field. Energy of a pyramid reacts to operator's thoughts and intentions. It's acting like a huge amplifier for manifestation reality whatever it is healing, communication or interdimensional or astral travelling.

Energy of pyramid

Pyramidal energy of high vibrations calls cosmic is relating to torsion fields. It is favorable for human body and mind and other living beings. This energy is optically breaks, reflect and polarizing similarity to visible light. Pyramids walls attracting energy inside in all directions. This concentrated energy is affecting molecules or crystal structures of matter within a range of pyramid.

Scientists proved that no matter of a proportions, pyramids are amplifying mentioned energies of torsion fields (cosmic energies) and also energies of electromagnetic spectrum. American scientist Dr. Flanagan says, that Cheops pyramid concentrating energies in a very high frequencies and that is based on fact it has five angles. These corner angles of a pyramid concentrates and directing into energy beam where all four meets in the kings chamber.

Pyramidal energy is healthy for human organism as well as environment around and has multifunctional purpose. It strengthens the organism, heals humans and animals diseases, eases a pain of any kind, quickens healing of ambustion. Pyramid is also good for keeping a food fresh and healthy. Great for balancing a water for drinking or watering your vegetable and fruit. Softens taste of coffee, tea and quickens a germination of seeds. Growing never been faster than when you using a pyramidal energy. Strengthens a vitality, defends reproduce bacteria and microorganism which causes a break up of an organic matter. Living cells would not be affected by dehydratation as it still holds an electric charge and that is why plants or bodies would not be affected. Paradoxically if you like to slow down growth of your plants you don't give them any water they will still keeping very well under the pyramid and wouldn't need watering for a long time.

Many people have been personally convinced, that a pyramid is able to recharge our bodies when we are feeling exhausted, heals and tune our biological processes, but also gives us a tool to work with our psyche, consciousness and better connection to a higher frequencies and dimensions of reality. It's only up to us to what extend we are capable of operating these emitters. Many researchers were made in a wide range of branches as for example biochemistry, medical, agriculture, electronics or practical use for every day of life.

Pyramid Meditation and Manifestation Practices

Because of their physical properties and symbolic meanings, pyramids can be used in spiritual, meditation, and manifestation practices. Here are some ways you can use them to expand consciousness and receptivity to spiritual guidance:

1. Focus and Alignment

Just as pyramids form a point, or apex, at their top, they can represent focusing your attention in meditation. Some people find focusing on a mandala or lotus flower can help to reorient wandering thoughts in meditation. The pyramid can serve in the same fashion, whether it’s a figurine, a piece of art, or even in your imaginations.

In addition, you can focus your thoughts on moving up from the base of the pyramid, which can represent your experience in the material world to its pinnacle, which can represent a higher state of consciousness.

2. Energy Channeling

Pyramids are thought to channel cosmic energy, making them helpful tools for energy and even healing sessions. Placing a small pyramid on or near the head or body during energy and healing sessions is said to help balance and harmonize the body’s energy fields.

3. Manifestation Amplifier

The stable base and ascending sides of a pyramid can also symbolize staying grounded in the earthly plane while reaching for higher goals.

Writing down your intentions and placing them under a pyramid can be a helpful ritual in your manifestation practice. It can also serve as a request for blessings from higher powers when it comes to your endeavors.

4. Generating Creative Ideas

Given their association with enhancing focus and channeling energy, pyramids can be in creativity and problem solving when you want to channel higher energies and spiritual guidance.

In addition, the presence of a pyramid shape can serve as a visual and energetic reminder of your goals, aspirations, and unlimited capacity to create.

5. Gateways

Reflecting ancient practices, pyramids can be used as symbolic gateways during spiritual initiations or significant transitions, representing the journey from one state of consciousness to another.

This can involve meditating within or near pyramid structures to tap into transformative energies.

6. Enhancing a Sacred Space

Incorporating pyramids into the design of a creative, meditation, or other sacred space can elevate the area’s vibrational qualities. The pyramid’s base provides stability and grounding, while its ascending sides support creativity, the quest for higher wisdom, and spiritual ascension.

Energy Pyramid Real Fun, Wow!

Crystal for your reading: Ruby

Angel message: Bless your heart - Reach out for emotional and spiritual support to heal and mend your heart. Affirmation: I am honest in thought, word, and deed. Keyword: Honesty - Angel reminds you that your every thought, word, emotion, and action is reflected in your aura. When you are honest, your aura is crystal clean. Everyone knows where they are with you and feels safe. As you radiate a resonance of honesty, people respond to you with openness and honesty in their turn.

If you want a short answer it will be yes. I can see that you must deal with some travel, movement, and migration and you need to take some action for that. You can feel energetic and focused on your goal. If you have a wild temper you must take it easy a little bit because it is very easy for the energy to get out of control. You can even be surprised by some people or aspects of your evolution. Events will speed up and any block will be lighted and your projects will move on. There are lots of indicators of making progress, moving on, and attracting acknowledgment and support(emotionally and financially). If there is any part of your life that doesn't give you the feedback that you are looking for you must plan before quitting or changing something. Now you must little to your heart and follow your intuition. If you have been dealing with someone like a conflict you must need to settle it using all your charm and empathy. Focus on moving forward because you will get all that you want if you let the past remain in the past. If you are faced with a difficult situation when it comes to going to University, make measured cool-headed decisions(and take care of finances because if you want to move you need to have some money and at this moment I don't think you're spending rationally). There is victory over this chaotic period that you are dealing with right now. If you are going to go on this road don't forget that you need to make a lot of changes so you can have the feeling that all that you have worked on until now isn't helping you on your new road. This will be a normal thing because there must be a new structure to start over so do not attempt to rebuild the same as you did before. You can't avoid this, new things need new ways to work out. So be prepared for a lot of unexpected changes apart from the changing of location and be careful with your spending. Wish you only the best!

[creature-wizard]

So we are made of energy, right? we live in the 3-D because the frequency in the 3-D is so dense that energy becomes matter. When you awaken and begin an ascension journey, you raise your vibration, you raise your frequency and the higher the frequency, the less dense the energy is. as you ascend your physical body along with your mental body and your spiritual body changes. As your consciousness raises, your DNA also raises or is “ activated”. Also, in addition to this, souls that are awaken, are constantly being upgraded via the frequencies from the sun. Are you familiar with the Schumann resonance? as we receive these downloads from these frequencies through an open crown chakra and open third eye, our DNA is upgrading and this process is also referred to as Crystalline. Humans living in the 3-D matrix are carbon based with a 666 DNA structure (six protons six electrons six neutrons), an ascended soul living in the 5D has a 616 DNA structure (six protons one neutron six electrons). As you heal and ascend, you are converting your DNA structure. You are changing from a carbon base to a crystalline base DNA. This happens because as you heal, you are purging very dense energy, and therefore making more room for divine light energy. Furthermore, 3-D science talks about some DNA being junk DNA.. this DNA is actually your ability to be interdimensional. Activating this part of your DNA will allow you to become a co-creator of your life with the universe and access all of your gifts. Hope that helps 🙂

Yes, yes, this is basic New Age metaphysics, and I'm quite familiar with it. Unfortunately it's all a bunch of pseudoscience. Not a single person has ever transmuted their physical form into anything other than regular carbon based old meat and bone despite lots of people trying since the 20th century. Not a single person has ever had their advanced crystal DNA sequenced. Not a single person has ever demonstrated any kind of biochemical change in the manner you're describing. Each and every New Ager dies the way they were born: a regular old carbon based human being.

[haggishlyhagging]

Stone, in Neolithic times as in the Paleolithic, remains the powerful abode of the Great Goddess. Stone, of all earth forms, is immortal and unchanging, symbol of permanence. As the bones of the earth, the pelvic walls of caverns, it gives off a profound vibration or resonance—both subhuman and supranatural. All "primitive" people carry wishbones and healing-stones, talismans painted with magic symbols. Animals as well as humans seem drawn to tall, standing menhirs, or stone pillars; sick livestock rub against them in the countryside, and it is timeless folk custom to touch menhirs in order to become fertile, or to be cured of illness.

Legends often refer to stone circles (e.g., in Brittany and Cornwall, in Ireland and England) as nine maidens or merry maidens; nine is the magic number of the moon, and the Thracian muses. To explain these circles, it is said that nine naughty young women were turned into stone, by the avenging Christian God, for dancing on his sabbath.

It has been suggested that a specific number of women/girls dancing in a circle at certain speeds, and all singing or humming the appropriate note (young women having high piping voices), might set up a vibratory resonance in the stone circle, subjecting each stone to a burst of sound-energy as each woman passed it . . . and this energy traveling from stone to stone . . . ! The ultrasound in the voices or music would act on the crystal structure of the stone.

A leap of faith and Physics (part 2)

Now that we knew how to find the crystals, the scientific community was tense. Itching to do something with them.

One paper had just unveiled a method of propulsion using the tachyon background and directed linear resonance chirping. The tachyon background, as it turned out, is self organizing. Unlike the tardionic world we were used to, entropy actually decreases over there. There is a natural tachyon base frequency, one so high that they travel really slowly. That's also weird about tachyons, how the more energy they have, the slower they move. But we knew that part beforehand.

Anyway, the paper outlined how to use a subharmonic of that base frequency, that could slowly be chirped in one direction to one harmonic lower, which would generate physical thrust on the tardium crystal used for chirping. Only problem was that once the frequency arrived at the new subharmonic, the tachyons decayed into their base frequency, completely stopping the propulsion. This stopping effect, though detrimental to the experimental setup in terms of having broken it multiple times, begged the question though: Since it stopped, momentum isn't conserved, despite motion happening.

Just half a year later, some madlad had designed an actual engine based on that concept, that should in theory exceed the speed of light. To be fair, the tardium crystals did that, for a couple attoseconds. Unfortunately for the rest of the prototype, normal matter doesn't appreciate being moved at superluminal speeds, and therefore broke apart when the craft approached the light barrier.

Despite that setback, people kept on theorizing and engineering. Then, two years later, Star Trek came to the rescue again. A research group posited that they could make a 'structural integrity field' by sprinkling microscopic tardium crystals into the steel and ceramic of the hull, and engineering a tachyon field that would keep them at a constant distance relative to the drive crystals. Ten months later, and a tiny prototype did what we thought to be impossible: For 24 milliseconds, it traveled at about 1.000000001c, and it came out of this experience unharmed. However, the sharp drop from superluminal to low subluminal speeds did de-tune the structural integrity field. Unless we got someone to board the vessel and re-tune it after every drop from superluminal, this wasn't going to work out. Especially because the chirp would not last all that long.

Now that the principle was proven, though, the engineers and mining crews took over. While the former slaved over engine and hull designs, the latter set up multiple extra bases along the asteroid belt, undulation mining all the tardium crystals they could get their metaphorical hands on. They were tiny, but since we needed most of them for the integrity field anyway, that wasn't a problem. What was harder was finding good, sufficiently large drive crystals.

Meanwhile, the engineers had settled on a design that was, for some reason, a flying saucer. They explained that they needed three or more engines to run at the same time all the time, to be able to adjust course. And also have more than that so some could be stopped, reset, and be ready to chirp again before the active ones were done. Therefore, at six points radially along the saucer, there were 2cm sized drive crystals which would propel the craft. They would be working on three cycles, while one pair was resetting, the other two pairs would be actively propelling the vessel. This way, continuous propulsion could be achieved. And the integrity field would not need to be re-tuned every couple milliseconds.

For low subluminal speeds, the engines didn't actually require the integrity field to be active. This had the advantage, that the vessel could be contacted. Because as prototyping quickly revealed, as soon as the integrity field was up, communications were all blocked in their entirety.

But, well, after 5 more years of prototyping and biological compatibility testing, the first starship was deemed spaceworthy and safe for humans to be on the inside of. Turned out that as long as the hull integrity field was up, the inside of the craft needed no further cautions, and you could float around in it like normal. The field itself didn't even extend much further inside beyond the outer hull. Though, when the field was down, you would experience the g-forces of the drive, which sounds bad, but actually made for some handy way to produce artificial gravity during the ascent from the surface. Once the field was up, the magnetic boots of the uniforms anchored you to the floor. Or you could grab onto two handles and anchor yourself that way.

We would love to have made a bigger ship than we did, but unfortunately, the Enterprise (because of course they named it that) was limited by the amount of available large tardium crystals for the drive. So we deemed its first mission to be getting some more. Trade for them, get permission to mine them, whatever, we just needed some larger ones.

As for now, the enterprise had just one deck in the wider saucer, but 3 in the middle, which was bulbed out for no discernible reason i could find, other than to make it look like a proper UFO. And maybe to house the living quarters for the crew of 45 brave explorers. And also to transport back more tardium in the cargo hold, located smack dab in the middle of the ship.

We sent a request for the isocoordinates of the closest civilization to us over vibromessage, and after receiving them, we gave the go ahead.

We however forgot to take into account that due to the message blocking of the structural field, we could no longer send our friends in the Andromeda galaxy any messages. Nor could we check in with the Enterprise, as it would be in the tachyon slipstream continuously, so as not to need to re-tune the integrity field as often. Because that takes a while each time.

So for 30 long years after the sendoff, we didn't know anything. We didn't waste that time, but with so much of our supply of crystals built into that ship, we needed a while to even start on other experiments. And the first thing we did was to upgrade the control network for the dyson collectors. I say first thing, as if we finished that project quickly, when in reality it took us 2 of those 3 decades. The last decade was pretty calm. Humanity had endured so much excitement, that the new generation now pushed to refocus on our culture. So, now that the collectors were precise enough, we finally began to enact our long awaited plan to terraform Mars. But that would take about a century in total, so it wasn't like there was much daily excitement to be had about that.

Then, thirty years and 5 months after launch, at 0:1 PFJ, we received a vibromessage from Andromeda. Enterprise had made it.

Quickly thereafter, the prime administrator called me, demanding to be connected to the tachyon network at once, now that comms were open once more.

I didn't really watch the negotiations that followed, but to make a long story short, our wayward crew was allowed to mine asteroids in the system of the aliens for tardium, so long as the aliens got a 40/60 cut. They themselves admitted to being unable to mine them by themselves, so they gave us the lion's share.

For the domestic scientists, this meant the reserves of tardium were opened more to experiments, as more was on the way soon-ish.

This resulted in the discovery of how the tachyons decayed into their base frequency, or vacuum state, if you will. We knew that in tardium, the tachyons directly couple with the phonons, which are the vibrational excitation modes. However, in vacuum, when coupling with themselves in order to decay into a higher frequency, the excitation was mitigated by an elongation of the surrounding spacetime in turn. We had finally found the explaination for the expansion of the universe: Whenever tardium gets excited and tachyons of non-base frequencies are sent out, their decay mode stretches the universe. Or, well, it stretches spacetime, with isospace being left unaffected. Our drive tech basically anchors the vessel to isospace anyway, so even if the universe keeps expanding, we can still visit everyone we want with the first drive we made. But... negative spacial curvature was something we wanted to achieve for centuries. And now, we were able to!

With this discovery, the engineers went back to work to try to make this into a method of propulsion as well. This necessitated a name for our first, working engine, which we decided to call the slipstream drive. This was fairly intuitive of a name, as the vessel would couple to isospace instead of regular spacetime, where it would be carried by the pressure of the tachyon field on one side, while the chirpers destructively interfered with it on the other side. Thus essentially creating a slipstream pocket in the front, into which the tachyon pressure would continuously push the vessel.

Speaking of names, the newly conceived drive was uncreatively christened the warp drive. To be fair, it was pretty much exactly what a warp drive in pop-culture had been. Except, turns out, it didn't work that easily. The warp prototypes at the moment had small drive crystals. And so, their warp fields collapsed fairly rapidly, due to unwanted resonance we couldn't shunt away. No prototype even managed to break the warp 1 barrier yet, though they did achieve fairly decent sublight speeds. And, interestingly, they could still be communicated with via tachyon message. This was due to the fact that they worked on the opposite principle of comm-arrays. Where communications needed to stay stable over vast distances, the warp drive needed the tachyons to rapidly decay into the ground state in order to achieve propulsion. Anyway, as exciting as the warp drives were, in terms of actual propulsion, they weren't all that revolutionary.

The theoretical development of better, more efficient slipstream drives on the other hand flourished. Once Enterprise got back, the engineers were confident that the next trip to Andromeda could be tackled in about a month or two, with the new engine design. Maybe three, if some unforeseen hazards appeared.

-------------------------------

The high council of Krg didn't really know how to react to the news of the Humans' arrival.

Nobody could wrap their minds around how they got here. Or really why. Well, they stated that they wanted to mine the asteroids in the star system for tardium, but why they came to the surface was beyond the council's understanding.

They had to wear thick, bulky suits, with gas containers for respiration, as Krg didn't have an atmosphere. To even get to our habitats, we had to open one of the pressure doors, which we normally use to get to the surface whenever we want to access the telescopes. It was such a strange feeling, letting something else then a Krgian crawl through our living spaces. Usually when that happened, the intruder was some kind of pest, which we quickly drove out.

The Humans had trouble with the steepness of some of our tunnels, but they still insisted they come down here. Our multitude of locomotive limbs allows our kind to easily traverse these tunnels, but that didn't mean the Humans didn't manage. When we thought it would be too steep for them to follow us, they unveiled a rope and pulley system, which they used to hoist themselves down along the wall. Ingenious!

Though i couldn't help but ask: "Are you sure you can get back up?"

The lead human, furthest down the rope turned its head, and replied: "Yeah, easily. The gravity here is so much lower compared to Earth, it will be a cakewalk. Ah, sorry, human expression, what i meant was it will be a simple matter. To be honest, i am more worried about the light."

Light? "Oh right, you Humans have sensory organs that require light." I had forgotten about that, but supposed it made sense for surface dwellers such as them.

"Yes, we can't see much down here with our measly flashlights."

"What is a flashlight?"

"A portable light source, which can be directed into a specific direction. But in tunnels like these, in the dark, i can see why your species has evolved vibrational senses first and foremost."

"You are familiar with them?"

The Human made noise that sounded as if it had trouble with respiration. "Yes. We have lots of life forms on Earth that have whiskers like yours. Not even all of which live in tunnels. Some live together with us."

This surprised me. "There is another intelligent species on your planet?"

"No." came the swift reply.

"Ah, a pet then. Or is it livestock?"

"No, cats are pets. Though jury's out on who's domesticated whom."

I wanted to ask for clarification, but we had arrived at my workstation.

"We are here," i announced to the humans, opening the hatch. "You may enter."

"Whoa. Is that? A tardium crystal?" The third Human in line extended their forelimb toward one of the array crystals. "It is gigantic!"

Appraising the crystal, it was only about one and a half body lengths of the Humans. "It is for a communications array, after all. Though it is not the largest single crystal we have," i informed them.

"If the boys back home saw that, they'd be foaming at the mouth, you know that?"

"Isn't mouth foaming a bad sign?" I wasn't sure about all the intricacies of Human biology, i was a communication officer after all, not a biologist.

"It would be, if that wasn't just an expression. Sorry, i keep forgetting that idioms require context that you don't have. May we use the array to send a message back home? Our vessel is only equipped with a short range communication grid."

Another human whispered something i think i wasn't supposed to hear, but could clearly: "ET phone home." It was said in English, which i was rusty in, so i didn't know what it meant. We had been conversing in basic so far.

Of course, i agreed to let them use it. They proceeded to turn their heads in many different positions, but didn't go to the controls.

"Is something wrong?" i asked.

"We have no idea how to work this thing."

Oh. I went over to the vibromotor-controls, and softly brushed the control crystal. Brushing the harmony for communication with Earth, the vibromotors undulated, configuring the array crystals into the correct alignment.

The Humans then initiated a small scale communication from their own limited range communicator, which i configured the array to pick up and amplify, then transmit toward Earth. On the side, i used internal communications to call the council of elders up here, who to my surprise agreed to come right away. Only two millirotations later, they crawled up the side entrances, their chitin softness dampening their approach to a respectably low volume.

At the same time, the communications array was picking up a response, from the leader of Earth.

"Shall we leave the leaders to their decision?" one of the Humans asked me.

"Probably." i responded. We made our way outside the cavern.

"Do you have a water reservoir here somewhere?" one of the Humans requested. "We need to refill our oxygen supply, but we have electrolyzers and hydrogen fusers in the ship. So if you could spare a couple tons of water, that would really help us."

I had no idea what half these words meant, but lead them to a communal pressure well. We use those to transport cargo from the lower levels, but we had more than enough liquid water to spare. A couple tons were nothing.

After a trip back to the surface, hauling some metallic objects down the tunnels, the humans went to work. Why they were using construction material was beyond me, but soon, a rythmic hum came from one of the devices.

"Fusion in 3. 2. 1. Fusing now," one of them announced, having connected a soft pipe from one device to the other.

"What exactly is it that you are doing?" i inquired.

"Electro-chemically splitting the water into hydrogen and oxygen, then using the hydrogen for the fusion reactor, which in turn powers the electrolyzer."

"I have no idea what any of that means," i admitted.

The Humans turned their heads to one another for a moment, then back to me.

"We're using a machine, or two machines rather, to make breathable gas out of the water."

"Oh, so you breathe water vapor?"

"No. But we can make what we breathe out of water. We don't just vaporize it. I don't think i can properly explain chemistry or electrolysis right now. We don't have the time for that."

"Don't we have plenty, while the negotiations are underway?" i inquired.

"If you think they will take multiple cycles, then maybe. But i thought it would only be a few rotations, right?"

It takes multiple cycles to explain?

What?

Just what is up with these Humans?

...to be honest, i kind of wanted to find out for myself at this point. Maybe, just maybe, they would allow me to travel back to Earth with them. I didn't have a clutch of eggs to care for, nor a mate. Which hadn't exactly bothered me, but it did mean i had nothing holding me here. Except for the now obsolete thought that i couldn't go to any other civilization.

Hello, Author here. I am sorry to say this, but this is probably the last thing i write for this world. ADHD refuses to let me do such a sustained project. If any of you want to write something in this setting i created, though, be sure to run it by me to see if it fits the setting. Also, if anyone has a cool idea what to call this worldbuilding/setting/universe, feel free to send me an ask with a suggestion, i'll edit the tags so we can find stuff written in that setting later on.

Races Among the Stars 10: Shimreen

Sentient life takes on all sorts of forms, the biodiversity of a single planet is enough to prove that, but sometimes in science fiction life takes on unusual forms, such as different chemical compounds that offer enough complexity to potentially become life. We’re all intimately familiar with the versatility of carbon, but other options like nitrogen, silicon, and sulfur are possibilities, to say nothing of stranger things that you get in sci-fi and fantasy alike.

One such unusual species are the autocthonous crystalline creatures known as the shimreen, that dwell on a planet known for it’s raw elemental activities, ranging from near-constant storms to geological activity including multiple volcanoes that serve as the primary reproductive sites of the species. While once they endured the truly staggering forces of their planet with only underground shelters to protect themselves, the modern shimreen have constructed at least seven domed cities that absorb the lighting and forces of the storms above into power for their residents, where they live in orderly, seeming utopia.

Shimreen (which I only recently realized is a pun on ‘shimmering’) appear to be humanoid beings composed of glowing crystal in a variety of colors spanning the whole rainbow (they can change the light level of their radiance, but only death can extinguish it). While extremely dense (the average shimreen weighing about 600 lbs), they possess the full flexibility of most other humanoids due to the way that their solid bodies can subtly fracture and reassemble without losing cohesion or letting in gaps, all of which gives them permanent joints, humanoid facial features as well as what makes their circulatory system possible alongside electrical currents carrying the energy from sustenance throughout the body.

That same control also allows them to alter themselves in key ways. The most immediately obvious is the way they can prune or encourage the growth of crystal outcroppings on their heads, forming “hair” and “beards”. However, they can also reshape a limb into either a tool for the work at hand or into a simple stabbing lance. Finally, they can actually reshape the crystal lattices in their own heads, the ones that define their consciousness, effectively altering their own brains. Most do so to get rid of bad habits or reduce the impact of traumatic memories.

Additionally, the properties of the crystal itself lends itself well to energy conduction, particularly electricity, though they can conduct and even absorb pretty much any energies, though this does nothing on it’s own to protect them from the damaging effects of said energy, it can be useful in combat, and it also means that music is a very popular art form in the species, with their songs usually including elements set at the resonant frequency range of their bodies so that they feel as well as hear the music.

It is perhaps the uniqueness of shimreen composition that explains why their reproduction can only occur on their homeworld (though the game treats this like a bit of a mystery). Essentially, when two or more shimreen desire a child, they venture to one of the volcanoes dotting their world and each break off a bit of their own crystal structure, combining them all together and dropping them into the lava, where they melt down and the heat allows the liquefied crystal to begin forming the crystal seed of an infant shimreen, unless the process fails, of course.

The shimreen believe that they were given life by Pharasma, and that the souls of their newborns come from the lava from her, which in turn leads many to believe that there is only a finite amount of soul energy, and only by returning the crumbled remains of their deceased to the volcano can it be renewed and guarantee that more children are born. (This isn’t touched on further because Starfinder likes to be a lot less specific about the great beyond and the complex matters of death and the afterlife, but I’m of the mind that the reason that shimreen can only be born from the volcanoes of their homeworld has more to do with the unique mineral composition than anything else, though there is probably some element of the divine or spiritual too).

The shimreen are an orderly people, but they also delight in expression and creativity. Their culture is broadly divided into warriors and workers, though there is no great social disparity between the two. Warriors include both those that train to fight in any capacity as well as those that hone their bodies for other reasons such as professional athletes and the like. Meanwhile, workers cover anything from doctors to scientists to skilled laborers.

The plentiful nature of resources on Shimrinsara also means that there is plenty of opportunity for creative endeavors and personal projects, and the fashion, art, and music scenes are fascinatingly diverse.

Indeed, all told, shimreen society should be a utopia, with most citizens seeing no need to leave the planet save for if their work requires it. However, every so-called utopia has it’s problems, such as the unacknowledged bigotry towards those whose internal light is dull or their facets rough and unpolished, as well as the current practice of “rehabilitating” criminals by externally modifying the malleable cerebral lattice, effectively brainwashing them into “good citizens” (though it should be clear that a large majority find this practice barbaric, though fear of exile has kept these objections quiet for now), as well rumors of an 8th city that exists outside of the control of the Spectrum Council’s control.

Shimreen are agile and ingenious, but their reliance on order leaves their critical thinking skills lacking.

They are also especially adept at absorbing and conducting various forms of energy, and by willingly absorbing more (damaging themselves in the process), they can hold a charge of such energy that they release with a melee attack with a weapon or their own crystalline outgrowths, enhancing its damage appropriately.

The conductivity of their crystalline bodies naturally makes them more resistant to electricity.

Shimreen also natural glow from within, and in addition to finely controlling it to punctuate their language, they can adjust, but not extinguish the light level of this glow as needed.

With their malleable crystal makeups, they can shift one of their hands into a piercing crystalline weapon similar to a dagger, shortsword, or even rapier. Most are quite adept at using it in battle too, though obviously the hand is useless for grasping until reverted.

With their agility, shimreen can be quite effective as ranged attackers or agile melee combatants, though the fact that they glow can make being an operative based on stealth difficult without full body coverings. Dexterity also helps them as precogs, though others may seek to use their intellect for studious biohacking, as well as the technological skills of the mechanic or technomancer. Interestingly, their ability to willingly take more damage to get a boost later has some synergy with the vanguard class. However, their lower wisdom makes mystic a somewhat hard sell, though nothing is stopping you from choosing the class if it is more your style than other casters like witchwarpers.

While their initially started as an AP backmatter race, they proved popular enough to get an expansion and write-up in Alien Archive 3 and Interstellar Species, which is always nice. In any case, that will do for today, I hope you’re looking forward to more!

Log Entry Leith de Aurum, Master Engineer and Researcher Skylanders Academy Laboratory Cycle 5471, Day 183

"Subject: Preliminary Observations on the Nature of Traptanium Crystals

When I first encountered Traptanium, I expected it to be a simple, albeit potent, conduit for energy. A crystalline structure with high resonance potential, capable of storing and redirecting elemental forces—what any self-respecting engineer would call “a dream material.” But Traptanium has proven to be much more than that.

This crystal does not merely store energy; it anchors it. In my initial experiments, I observed that even the smallest shard creates a strange tethering effect on any nearby magical presence. It's subtle at first—a faint vibration in the air, like the hum of an engine at rest. But the closer one gets, the stronger the pull becomes, almost as if the crystal senses the magical essence within its proximity and longs to entwine with it.

The most startling discovery came during my resonance test with Cynder. (She graciously volunteered, though I suspect she was just as curious as I was—dragons do love a good mystery.) As she approached the crystal, its hue began to shift, cycling through deep purples and shadowy blacks, mimicking the essence of her elemental powers. Yet, when she extended said powers—a simple pulse of shadow energy—she recoiled in pain. Later, she described it as a tugging sensation deep in her chest, like her very spirit was being pulled taut. She attempted another pulse, but her power fizzled out as if the crystal had numbed her connection to it.

The implications of this are staggering. Traptanium doesn’t just reflect the essence of those nearby—it appears to bind their power to itself. In this way, it acts not as a vessel but as a tether. The crystal’s color shifts seem to serve as a window into the soul of those it anchors, revealing not their physical form but the nature of their magic and spirit.

I conducted a similar test with Encritus earlier this morning. His explosive igneous magic had no effect on the crystal, and when he attempted to unleash his full power, he described feeling “hollowed out,” as if the flames were extinguished before they could even reach the surface. He noted the same chest-tightening sensation Cynder described—a physical manifestation of the tether, perhaps?

My working theory is this: Traptanium operates on a level far deeper than physical or magical containment. It interacts with the very essence of its target, anchoring their soul and power to a specific point in space. This would explain why villains captured with Traptanium are described as being “bound” but not “imprisoned.” Their bodies are elsewhere—locked in Cloudcracker Prison—but their souls and powers remain locked within the crystal's grasp.

The psychological effects are worth noting as well. During a controlled interaction, Juju Kekatl, our reluctant ally, exhibited visible discomfort when near a shard of Traptanium. The crystal glowed faintly green and gold—a color I suspect corresponds to her elemental affinities—yet she refused to approach it, muttering something about “chains in the air.”

And yet… is it truly a prison? Or is it something more complex? Could the tether be broken? Reversed? Harnessed?

I wonder, too, about the ethical ramifications. This material binds and nullifies not just magic but the essence of a being. It is as though we are taking their life force and tying it to a stake, leaving them powerless and exposed. A powerful weapon, yes—but at what cost?

Still, the engineer in me can’t help but marvel at the potential applications. Imagine Traptanium-powered devices—tools capable of amplifying magic, or perhaps even drawing energy from it. Could we create machines that rival the power of our strongest Skylanders? Or… and this is perhaps more dangerous to contemplate… should we untether these captured souls and restore them to their original forms?

I’ve never seen Spyro so grim as when I posed this last question. He muttered something about Pandora’s Box and left the lab without another word.

For now, I’ll continue my tests. Traptanium is not just a material; it’s a force of nature. And like any force, it must be understood before it can be controlled.

Perhaps one day, I’ll find its limits. If it has any."

End Log.

The Effects of Words and Vibration on Water as it Freezes

The interaction between sound, words, and water is a fascinating subject that combines physics, chemistry, and metaphysics. Studies have explored how external stimuli like words, sounds, and vibrations influence water crystallization during freezing.

Scientific Background

Water's unique properties are due to its molecular structure and hydrogen bonds, which play a critical role in freezing. When water freezes, its molecules form a crystalline structure, usually hexagonal ice, influenced by environmental conditions.

Theoretical Underpinnings

The idea that words and vibrations affect water crystallization comes from Dr. Masaru Emoto's controversial work. Emoto's experiments, detailed in "The Hidden Messages in Water," suggest that positive words, music, and intentions create aesthetically pleasing and well-defined ice crystals, while negative stimuli produce distorted crystals.

Key Experiment and Findings

1. Emoto's Water Crystal Experiment:

Emoto froze water samples exposed to various words, phrases, or music. He reported that positive stimuli (e.g., "love" and "gratitude") resulted in symmetrical crystals, while negative stimuli (e.g., "hate" and "anger") led to malformed crystals.

Cymatics and Vibrational Influence:

Cymatics studies the visual representation of sound waves. When water is subjected to specific frequencies, patterns like Chladni figures emerge, suggesting that sound vibrations can organize matter into distinct, ordered structures.

Criticism and Scientific Scrutiny:

Emoto's work has faced criticism for lacking rigorous controls and not being consistently replicated. Despite this, the popularity of his findings has spurred interest in the relationship between water and external stimuli.

Implications and Broader Significance

The concept that words and vibrations influence water has implications beyond scientific curiosity, touching on quantum physics, consciousness, and holistic health. If water molecules are influenced by human emotions and intentions, this could profoundly affect our understanding of consciousness and physical reality.

Quantum Physics and Consciousness:

Some link Emoto's findings to quantum physics principles, like the observer effect, suggesting a potential bridge between human consciousness and the material world.

Holistic Health and Well-being:

In holistic health, water quality is crucial for well-being. Positive intentions and words enhancing water structure align with practices like prayer and meditation, believed to promote health.

Environmental and Social Impact:

Understanding how environmental factors and human emotions affect water can influence environmental conservation and social interactions. Positive community engagement could potentially improve water quality and, by extension, ecosystems and human health.

Conclusion

While the scientific validation of Emoto's claims is contentious, exploring how words and vibrations influence water as it freezes opens intriguing possibilities. It challenges conventional scientific paradigms and invites deeper inquiry into the physical and metaphysical relationship.

Continued research with rigorous scientific methods is essential to substantiate or refute these claims. Regardless of the scientific outcome, the idea that positive energy manifests tangibly resonates deeply, emphasizing life's interconnectedness.

Crafting Magic: Exploring the Basics of Spell Structure

Introduction: Spells are an integral part of witchcraft and occult practices, allowing us to harness our intentions, work with energy, and manifest our desires. Understanding the basic structure of a spell is essential for creating effective and meaningful magical rituals. In this blog post, we will dive into the foundations of spell structure, guiding you through the key elements necessary to craft your own spells and enhance your magical practice.

Intent and Clarity: The first step in spellcraft is determining your intent. Clearly define what you wish to achieve or manifest through your spell. Be specific and concise, as a well-defined intention helps focus your energy and align your actions. Take the time to contemplate your desires and ensure they resonate with your values and highest good. When your intent is clear, the rest of the spell structure falls into place more easily.

Gathering Supplies: Once you have set your intention, gather the supplies and tools you will need for your spell. These can include candles, herbs, crystals, sigils, ritual objects, or anything else that aligns with your intention. Choose items that symbolize or enhance the energy you wish to work with. Cleansing and consecrating your tools before use can amplify their magical properties and establish a sacred connection.

Creating Sacred Space: Before casting a spell, it is important to create a sacred space that fosters focus, clarity, and energetic alignment. This can be done through various methods, such as smudging with herbs, casting a protective circle, or simply visualizing a bubble of sacred energy around you. Establishing sacred space helps to separate mundane reality from magical practice and invites higher vibrations into your ritual.

Setting the Mood: Setting the mood is crucial for creating the right atmosphere and raising the energy necessary for spellcasting. Consider lighting candles, playing soft music, or using incense to enhance the ambiance. Choose scents, colors, and sounds that align with the intention of your spell. Allow yourself to enter a state of heightened awareness and receptivity, preparing yourself to work with the energies at hand.

Energy Activation: Activating and directing energy is a core aspect of spellwork. This can be done through various methods, such as visualization, chanting, or movement. Visualize the energy flowing within and around you, building in intensity as you focus your intention. Channel this energy through your body, your tools, or into the designated ritual space. Use your chosen method to raise and direct the energy toward your desired outcome.

Ritual Action: Ritual action serves as the bridge between the mundane and the magical. It is the physical manifestation of your intention and energy. This can take the form of lighting a candle, crafting a sigil, reciting incantations, or performing symbolic gestures. Let your intuition guide you in selecting the actions that feel most aligned with your intent. As you engage in these actions, infuse them with purpose and intention, visualizing your desires coming to fruition.

Expressing Gratitude and Closing: Gratitude is an integral part of spellcraft. Express gratitude to the universe, deities, spirits, or whatever higher power you resonate with, acknowledging their assistance and support. Thank them for the manifestation of your intention, even if it has not yet physically manifested. Close your spell by releasing the energy and dismissing the sacred space you created, returning to the mundane realm with a sense of completion and closure.

Conclusion: By understanding the basic structure of a spell, you gain the tools to craft effective and meaningful rituals. Remember to always work with integrity, aligning your intentions with your highest good and the greater good of all. As you explore and refine your spellcasting skills, allow your intuition to guide you, and adapt the structure to

suit your personal style. Embrace the magic within you, and watch as your intentions manifest in the world around you.

I love this design for The Weeknd's 2017 World Tour, "Starboy: Legend of the Fall," because of its strong connection to celestial and futuristic themes, which I find fascinating. It captures my attention with its blend of celestial, futuristic, and sci-fi elements—things I love. The glowing neon greens and reds give it a cosmic, space-like feel that feels otherworldly and mysterious. The grid on the ground makes me think of an alien planet or a virtual space, adding to the sense of being in an unexplored, futuristic world.

What really stands out to me is the massive, angular structure in the background. It feels almost like a towering crystal or spaceship, adding to the mystery of the design. The lone figure walking towards it creates a sense of adventure and discovery, as if they're on a journey through space or into the unknown. This really resonates with me, as it mirrors the idea of venturing into uncharted territory, much like how space exploration feels.

The bold, glowing red typography for "Starboy: Legend of the Fall" contrasts well with the dark background, giving the design a powerful, commanding energy. It doesn’t overwhelm the visual elements, but instead enhances the whole composition. The contrast between light and dark—especially with the glowing landscape and the shadowy figure—adds a sense of depth and makes the viewer feel like they're part of this vast, futuristic world.

Overall, I love how this design taps into space and celestial themes while keeping a mysterious and adventurous tone. It reflects the kind of atmospheric, futuristic style that I find so compelling in both art and music.
