For @tribemoth

Something cracks at your back, something sharp, splintering through the fog’s silence.

Your shoulders raise. Your lungs go still.

Don’t look. Don’t look.

John’s voice echoes in your memory, severe blue gaze and downturned lips, opposite you at the table.

“Run.”

Headcanon time for this individual Ice Dragon! At least proper this time, lmao

After the Dragons were freed from Imperium, the individual Ice Dragon that remained with the Ninja revealed that her name was Glacier.

She comes from the secluded mountains of the Never Realm's very far north, where there is snow for a good majority of the year save for brief respite in spring and summer.

The other Ice Dragon seen with her in Cloud Kingdom before their capture was a relative, her cousin Borealis. After Imperium, he'd gone his separate way while Glacier remained with the Ninja in curiosity. (Also, because Zanth had asked her if she wished to join them).

Glacier tends to be the quietest down in the caverns. She often only speaks when spoken to or is very curt - not out of rudeness. Mind you, her kin are just very shy in comparison to other types of Ice Dragon seen.

Zanth is the one who usually tends to draw her out of the shell she had around herself - getting the most reclusive member of the flock to interact with others and play games with them.

Funnily enough, after about a year or so with Zanth's constant coercing, she sometimes seeks out consultation from Heatwave on what to do with the feelings she has. The older of the two Fire Dragons often provides her advice when she needs it.

Jiro avoids her for.. reasons she knows about due to Heatwave and Zanth telling her some bits before the Lightning Dragon arrived back home after the battle against Beatrix. She knows it's not something to take personally, but she sees how he trembles whenever her presence causes the vicinity to cool - and sometimes wonders if she should leave despite Zanth and Heatwaves disagreements.

She gets along with Riyu fine, though she isn't really sure what to do whenever he approaches her - she sort of just lets him take the lead in the conversation. It had been hard trying to console him, especially when he came back after hid Tribemother's death and only found her in the caves that the time as the others were doing tasks.

Generally, she and Rockslide get alone pretty well- he sometimes asks her to help freeze his statues until Geo comes around to fusing them. She often joins him in creating stuff out of ice with her frostbreath, finding it... relaxing.

She and Torchspark don't really see eye to eye, but there are times when they come together and talk it out(with a little help from the flock leaders A.K.A Heatwave, Zanth and Lloyd).

Ninja wise, she isn't really used to Kai and Wyldfyre's outgoing personalities quite yet - though she thinks both are very kind despite their volume. Nya sometimes terrifies her with her anger, though Glacier's aware stress can do that.

Sora and Arin are.. about the same, they don't really approach her- well, Arin does more than Sora, actually. He sometimes asks her for favours whenever the others are busy, so she likes to think she's helping out.

Cole she considers very sweet, even if she can tell he's hiding some bits of sadness within - she can smell the Earth Dragon on him- Rocky, if she remembers the Firstbournes grandson correctly.

Zane and her often come together to spend time with each other. She tells the few stories about Shard's lineage that she knows, and Zane resells the ones he spent with the Ice Wyvern. Though another pass time they like is playing some games- albeit it's a little hard for her due to her size.

Before The Merge and everything with Cloud Kingdom and Imperium, she lived a very solitary life - not that she minded really. Her variation of Ice Dragon was often known for living alone. It often works better considering where they live - though she knows of some that do live in flocks.

She and Torchspark are tied for first largest. With the other resident, Fire Dragon, being a little longer than her but not as heavy. Then it's Jiro, and then Zanth in third(she cheats by growing bigger) Heatwaves in fourth, Vigor and Rocklside being tied for Fifth with Riyu and Wyldfyre being the smallest

A long time ago, 20++ years I walked into a bookstore looking for an Author that spoke to me as a young, married woman in leadership. Early 20's with hella responsibility, I needed to understand what was going on INSIDE of me and most around me didn't have the tools. _ _ They had religion, fear & old wives tales that lacked substance for what I couldn't quite explain or trust to share, at the time. The book stores has black history, black struggle & black power. I wanted to own my own power. _ _ Then a sister showed up with #ThePowerWithin. I was scared of it. My religious mind had me that way, then months later I found #ValueinTheValley and it cracked open to myself. It ministered to me. Little did I know you would become ALL that you are to various aspects of my life. _ _ What I know for sure NOW, is my steps are ordered and I thank you for teaching me how to walk The Road Less Traveled. I give thanks to have you, a true Spiritual Covering and honored to cover you when you let us! _ _ MARFAREFUN OBATALA!!!🕊 My Madrina is #BlackExcellence #BlackGirlsRock #DivineFemine #ExecutiveWoman #TribeMother #birthdayqueen #itsyabirthday #letscelebratelife #werkwerkwerk #werkprayslay #fridaythe13th #fixmylife #trailblazer #motheroftransformationtv #fixmylifecoach #motherswisdom #virgolove #FULLMoon (at BWI Thurgood Marshall Airport (BWI)) https://www.instagram.com/p/B2W3ImpBk39/?igshid=1nawxc24a2onr

Working on Buck's backstory. Half-Orcs live in nomadic tribes, mostly because of their ancestry. It's how you remember them. Walk the paths they did. Do the things they did.

Anyways, Buck's clan was married into another's after their tribemother lost her husband. Buck quickly realized that only his new bride was much younger then he was; they elders arranged the marriage fairly quickly. Bonica's tribe was fairly small and the elders feared extinction.

Poor thing barely had time to process what had happened before she was married off again. Bonica and Buck's wedding night was basically him consoling a teenager over the death of her best friend.
