☀️Rune Saint John☀️

I'm reading The Tarot Sequence series by KD Edwards currently and I wanted to draw some fanarts of Rune ☀️✨

No spoilers tho i'm at the vol.2 only

[erlie]

I finally read The Hourglass Throne by KD Edwards, and there is a scene where Lady Death commands her mother, and I had this visual of her stuck in my head of her "deathness" rising when she uses her power.

[nerdzewordart]

Did I need a brand new project? No.

Am I going to make tarot cards for everyone in these books anyway? You bet.

Anyway here's Rune St. John from the Tarot Sequence books by KD Edwards. Also posted by my friend @justadreamfox on twitter

Saints of New Atlantis: Addam Saint Nicholas

This is still one of my favorite Tarot Sequences pieces I’ve ever done.

[overmorrowzeg]

My tarot sequence fanarts!

Addam and Rune dancing, Addam, and lady death.

This is the part where I reveal that unfortunately I am still not very good at drawing consistently the same character and also pretty bad at drawing tattooes but oh well..

[taivus]

The past few years I've taken to reading a lot of modern fantasy series, and while occasionally one like The Locked Tomb will surface and pull in a big fandom, that is a rare exception. A majority of the time it just leaves me stirring in emotions about characters with little outlet.

This is so badass! 🖤 gorgeous!!

suddenly realizing i never posted the art i did for the special edition hardcover of The Last Sun after it was officially announced!! i was super jazzed to get to be involved in this project and everyone involved was a delight to work with!

[llynteggwyn]

This looks like... Have I had too much gin or is this Supernatural?

☀️Brandon Saint John☀️

The Tarot Sequence Reread

Nothing has given me brain rot in a long while like the Tarot Sequence by K D Edwards has. And since I just finished reading all the supplemental stuff right when my hold for The Last Sun came back up I thought I would do something I have only done once before-and in a much less flattering way for a book I hated-and live blog my reread.

There's just so much in this series I need to pay closer attention to. And usually I would go on here and read some metas, but there is literally nothing!! The only things in the tags for this series is people wishing there were more people reading it, a handful of very wonderful fanarts, and an account of the decline of a discord that evidently used to exist for it. So, maybe this will encourage some people to read the books too.

Because there are some heavy topics in this series anytime I talk about such topics I will tag for them, but if they don't come up in the chapters I'm reviewing, I won't. So if you have certain things back listed you might not see all my posts on it. Anyone who is reading along and is curious about it can DM me.

NOW! Predictions and things I want to pay attention to under the cut for spoiler reasons.

The Tower. At the end of the prologue of the first book my thoughts were, " So we trust NO ONE!!" Except Queenie, because why would Rune and Brand live with her if she was evil? Then the children showed up and I had to trust them, they were too young to be part of the, whole thing, plus they are so cute. You have to trust them. And then Addam came along, and of course we trust him, he's an Addam, he's a giant dancing teddy bear and I love him! So I read the whole series (that's out so far) expecting we would find out the Tower was an evil guy, that he had had something to do with the fall of the Sun Throne. Honestly by the end of the third book I didn't think that any longer, and I was starting to before that after finding out he was also Qunn's godfather because!!! There is no way Qunn wouldn't have seen if the Tower revealed he had been a part of all that. (I'm still asking myself HOW exactly he or Mayan wouldn't have noticed an astral projection listening device being installed in Rune's room at their freaking tower that is super locked down! But then it happened for two other locations that were supposed to be super warded and protected my other companions too. So maybe it isn't his fault. I do think he might blame himself, I do think that some of his stand-offishness might also be guilt for not being able to stop the attack on the Sun Throne to start with. We will see...) I'm going to go into this read through with the assumption he is just lonely and sad and not a bad guy.

QUEENIE!!!! Because, WHO THE FUCK IS QUEENIE!? I was already suspicious because every time someone asks Rune and Brand where she came from, or how long she's been with them, they say "She's been with us forever." Every time! It reeks of mind fuckery. Then Eidolon and the epilogue that wasn't came along. Current theory is that she is the Empress, and also that she's probably Rune's mother. I would be willing to bet she was the woman at the end of the third book who spoke up to the river after everyone else. Edwards did a good job of making her disappear in the background, but I'm gonna be hunting for every mention of her and how she acts around everyone.

Ciaran, just because I love him and at first also suspected him of evil deeds. But he's just your gay vodka uncle and he loves all his adopted family so much and I just want to keep a closer on him at the start of the series.

Kellum. We only see him once in the second book, but he's mentioned in Eidolon by the Fool (Or Queenie pretending to be the Fool, again I'm not sure, there's Queenie interference for sure) And he was in one of the supplemental novellas. I think he will be making a bigger appearance in the next book.

Quinn's prophecies. I'll probably make a list of those for a separate master post.

Tallas. The Atlantean soul mates. This is a MAJOR spoiler. Rune says that Brand and he formed a talla bond the night of the attack. That it was what brought Brand out of the geas and got them to safety. The bond was gone when he woke up in the hospital and he's spent this whole time thinking he's somehow broken their talla bond. Something definitely happened between him and Addam in the Westlands, and I don't think Addam was wrong in assuming it was the budding of a talla bond. Because something sort of bond-like is also there now after the Hourglass Throne, after he used his bond with Brand to get him and Addam back to their time. My theory here is that they might be each other tallas, all three of them. Together. We know that it doesn't have to be a sexual relationship, though I don't think Addam would mind that one bit. Everything is pointing to the three of them being tied together somehow, and my theory is mostly that, before they were together together, no one talla bond could form and take precedence over the other. Now that they are together all the time, going on missions, living together, they have more opportunities for a bond to fully form and take hold. Assuming it involves all three of them.

And with that, I'm going to go read!

Saints of New Atlantis: Brand Saint John

I mentioned I love Brand Saint John, right? Because I do.

[leovanni-nolastname]

I like Jaskier fan art but everyone draws him exactly like Rune from the Tarot Sequence which I love a lot more and it's always whiplash. Especially because they also draw Geralt to often look very similar to Nick at a glance

[MASTERPOST]

A slightly older sketch I coloured! I still continue to be antibiotics georg and my temperature still skyrockets in the evenings, but I'm getting there. (Also I don't know how long Geralt searched for that flower but it was a bit, even with witcher senses - Jaskier always knew he was a bit of a sap. Somehow, he really needs this now.)

[agardenandlibrary]

Correct me if I'm wrong but I don't think you've read The Tarot Sequence? Can I convince you to give it a go if I say there's a psychic ferret in book 3? 😆 (Re: that fanart you reblogged earlier)

I MEAN, I'M TEMPTED NOW

[goodoldfashionednerd]

Since we are talking about The Tarot Sequence, and in this case, my favorite character from TTS, I need to make a propaganda list:

Ciaran is what we call a principality, aka a super powerful magician (they're like Arcana, which are the very powerful rulers of courts, just without an official court)

He is a fashion icon. And when I tell you he's an icon, you have no idea what I mean. Everytime I see a pretty Gucci or Dior outfit, I feel the urge to draw Ciaran in it. This has been going on for years, I am at his mercy and I love it.

I think a couple of Ciaran quotes would speak for themselves:

“Do I have time to change?” Ciaran asked. “I feel this requires tweed.”

“We’re in the 80s, for gods’ sake. Someone must have dropped a vial of cocaine somewhere. Let’s go exploring, my new friend.” “You are literally three failed heartbeats away from babysitting two minors!” I said to his retreating back. “I’ll be the fun uncle,” he replied. (Ciaran is the fun uncle here)

One time, he went to the school of two kids he likes and bullied their teachers into respecting them, it was awesome

Also, he literally has blue hair and pronouns, so that is something to take into account

I honestly don't know how to express how much I love him, he's my muse, he's incredibly funny, I love him aaaaah

Have this fanart I made, to have an idea of what sort of person he is. Yes, he has a knuckle bones necklace (it can store insanely powerful spells and is extremely badass)

Please vote for Ciaran <3
