《Tumaini, that is his name》

[wolfsummoner]

I'd take that

[lichedits]

An Ancient Name, Tumaini, forged after many twists and turns, whose meaning is "hope." You are its first bearer, and it shall record all your deeds and adventures in Natlan, to be passed down forevermore. "Wisdom" is not the sole domain of living things, nor are all memories or emotions a "blessing." It is a nameless, shapeless existence, nor can common sense comprehend it. It can warp history and memory, but it cannot twist your personal experiences. This is the meaning of this name you hold, and the light that Ancient Names mean to pass down.

[razorblade180]

Nations:Thank you for saving us! We will never forget this kindness. Let us know if you ever need anything.

Aether:That’s nice. Thank you.

xxxxx

Natlan:A FEAST IN YOUR HONOR! Murals shall be painted in your image as your name is immortalized in our hearts and souls until the end of days!!! TUMAINI, YOU ARE KIN!

Everyone:NO ONE FIGHTS ALONE!

Aether:Damn…if I didn’t know any better, I’d start thinking the other nations might not fuck with me for real.

Paimon:Remember that time we back to Inazuma and a soldier thought you were some nobody swordsman?

Aether:*raises glass* FOR NATLAN!

Everyone:YEEEEAAAAAHHHH!

Aether:Leaving here is going to suck for my emotional health.

xxxxxx

Venti:….Jean, send a letter to Aether.

Jean:Is there a problem?

Venti:Sometimes you just need nostalgia; to remember your roots.

Now that the People of Natlan can Leave...

This has spoilers for Natlan 5.3, come back once you've finished!

Okay so, now that the people of Natlan are able to leave their nation with the permission of their tribe leaders….can you image how much more Aether’s (I use Aether personally) legend is going to fucking IMPLODE? We know Mualani wants to go to Fontaine, in which Navia and Lyney will be all too happy to spout all he had done for them in their time of need.

For them to get to Liyue where Kachina wants to go, they have to go through Sumeru, which many people will be willing to explain what Aether had done for them. I mean, Nahida isn’t going to be shy about it, Collei is all too happy to explain all that was done. And Al-Haitham will just tell them bluntly. In Liyue we have so many others there willing to tell them about all the stuff Aether has done, taking them to where the Jade Chamber is and explaining all that was done on it. A certain Funeral Consultant might even tell them to seek Aether’s closest confidante, the last living Yaksha so they might tell him the story of the Three Heroes of Natlan and the Hero who Means Hope; Tumaini.

And then they hear about how his journey started in Mondstadt and well, they are right there so they go and experience the land of Freedom and where his journey first began!

As for Inazuma…Well, Kokomi is certainly willing to bring them over and Itto is going to hound them for all the good stories.

Mualani and Kachina are going to have STORIES for the People of Natlan about one of their greatest heroes when they come back.

AM I ALLOWED TO SPEAK???

MY REACTION TO ACT VI OF NATLAN BELOW THE READ MORE

THRAIN THRAIN THRAIN THRAIN THRAIN-

Slightly miffed his name drop was in ONE frame, unless you seek out an NPC about it (which I didn't talk to because I was GRIEVING)

And then it's just not??? Referenced ever again???

Fine, I can live with that, Natlan isn't just Capitano

Also, shoutout to Captain Tupperware with his souls

Kinda sad that Natlan is "over", there's so much left to do, for example the Collective of Plenty...

"Tumaini" is a beautiful name, by the way

Cutie patootie

Also, Ayo and his grandparents was so touching

I'm lucky to not have experienced a grandparent I know and love to decease, but it's still touching

Weird that I barely saw anybody talking about it, if at all

About the circle of the tribes!

I REGRET NOT DOING ALL THE WORLD QUESTS AND TRIBAL CHRONICLES BEFOREHAND

DANGIT

I only did Chasca's because of the time-limited award, and the first two Acts of Mualani's

BUT THE CIRCLE WAS SO EMPTY ;_;

If I could re-experience the Archon Quest in my account with the completed quests, I definitely would

ALSO

MAGIC OF FRIENDSHIP LET'S GO!!!

The whole quest was extremely hype, and GOOD

If there is one gripe I had during the fight, it's that everything went too easy

But I'll expand on that in a later post, I suppose

ALSO

PAIMON MY BABYYYYYY

I don't get emotional quick (I say after dedicating a whole part to Ayo's grandparents and his grief), but Paimon hugging the Traveler in tears???

Yeah no I'm ok yeah thanks

Also, there's something to be said about Mavuika slipping away from the celebrations to die all alone

Mavuika...

ALSO

RONOVA

MF!!!

(by the way there's basically a confirmation that the Abyss in Teyvat is the Honkai from HI3)

(I was normal during the quest, definitely)

ALSO YEAH, MR. CHRIS TERGLIAFERA IS A TERRIFIC VOICE ACTOR

THE HATRED IN CAPITANO'S VOICE WAS UNMATCHED

"Even YOU, great Ruler of DEATH"

Iconic, really

THIS WAS UNNECESSARY THOUGH

LIKE ARE YOU KIDDING ME

THE UNMET FIST BUMP???

CRUELTY

HoYoVerse refuses to make any ship canon, but APPARENTLY they can "kill off" one and make the relationship status highly suspicious

FFS

And then there's the funeral...

Yeah...

(I was inconsolable the entire day)

MavuiTano you will be the death of me

Also, side note

This was an interesting bit for me

She already broke the 4th wall before

Might be doing it again

~~~

And that's about it!

Not a lot of thoughts otherwise, except for the hype about it

I really enjoyed the fight against the Abyss, it was a shounen anime through and through

And while Capitano's role is short-lived, he made every second count

Natlan is saved, at least !!!

And the story was great

(btw I made a draft for an edit with Thrain's cutscene, but, like all other edits, it'll most likely be shelved until further notice)

And I hope I can make some essays and posts about the newly discovered lore and story! Focused on Mavuika and/or Thrain, of course~

Sehemu: XXI.

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

3. 9. 1. DALILI NA MATOKEO YA TABIA YA ULEVI.

(a). "ULAFI - GLUTTONY"

Ulafi ni hali ya kukosa kiasi katika kula au kunywa, Ni tamaa au kujiachia kupita kiasi. Ni hali ya kuwa na pupa na ubinafsi.

.....BWANA YESU anasema "Jiangalieni, mioyo yenu isije IKALEMEWA na ULAFI, na ULEVI, na MASUMBUFU ya maisha haya; siku ile ikawajia ghafula, kama mtego unasavyo.

....Luka 21:34....

Kama umemwelewa YESU anaonya kwamba kulemewa na ulafi, Ulevi na masumbuko haya yanaweza kukuzuia usiione mbingu. Tabia ya Ulevi imesababisha watu kuwa walafi, wenye pupa na tamaa mbaya kiasi kwamba hawakumbuki familia zao tena kwa sababu wanatenda bila kufikiri mwisho wa siku anaharibu kila kitu.

.....Kwa sababu HAKUJUA UTULIVU NDANI yake, HATAPONYA cho chote katika hicho ALICHOKIFURAHIA.

....Ayubu 20:20....

Wengine utakuta anaenda mahali anaagiza chakula na kinywaji kizuri anakula na kunywa na wakati mwingine anawanunulia wengine, LAKINI familia yake wanakosa hata chumvi, nyumbani mwake ni Ombaomba. Hii ni dhambi acha ulafi.

....USIWE miongoni mwao WANYWAO mvinyo; Miongoni mwao WALAO nyama kwa PUPA. Kwa maana MLEVI na MLAFI huingia UMASKINI, Na utepetevu humvika mtu nguo mbovu.

.....Mithali 23:20 - 21.....

(b). "UMASKINI"

Wewe utakuwa Shahidi mzuri juu ya hili, maisha ya mlevi yapoje, Tabia ya Ulevi ni kukurudisha kwenye umaskini taratibu,

.....Leo utawanunuliwa vinywaji watu, Kesho watanunua familia yako.

......Leo utasema nakunywa kwa afya, Kesho utaokotwa kwenye mitalo na kufeli kwa figo.

......Leo utakunywa kupunguza mawazo, Kesho utaomba kifo chako mwenyewe.

......Leo utakunywa kwa akili na majitambo mengi, Kesho unaambulia kulia, kuomboleza na umaskini.

Kimbia umaskini kwa kuacha kabisa Ulevi.

Mara nyingi tabia ya Ulevi inasababisha KUPOTEZA MALI na KUDUMAA KIMAISHA. Ulevi unasababisha umaskini kuanzia kwenye akili mpaka utendaji wa kazi, ambapo matokeo yake kupoteza au kurudi nyuma kimaisha. Na unazuia baraka (posho) zako mwenyewe.

....Basi, tazama, KWA AJILI YA HAYO nimenyosha mkono wangu juu yako, nami NIMELIPUNGUZA POSHO lako, na kukutoa kwa mapenzi yao wanaokuchukia, binti za Wafilisti, WALIOYAONEA HAYA MAMBO YAKO YA UASHERATI.

.....Ezekieli 16:27....

(c). MATESO

Tabia ya Ulevi ndugu yangu ni tabia tishio kwa sababu inaleta...

.....Maangaiko kimaisha,

.....Uzalilishaji pande zote (fikiri mtu anakunywa anavua nguo, Kesho yake aibu kwake na familia. Lakini wengine sio kujizalilisha bali wanazalilisha watu wanaoishi nao kuwapiga na kuwatendea ukatili kisa pombe),

..... Taabu za rohoni, kujisikia vibaya, kujihisi upweke nk,

...... Matukano, Magomvi na Virugu kwenye familia, jamii nk,

...... Uzinifu (Usaliti kwenye familia, na matengano mengi ni uzinzi na kisababishi kikuu ni Ulevi)

....... Magonjwa (Afya zimeshambuliwa kwa Ulevi, Mfano Magonjwa ya figo mengi ni Ulevi)

.......Basi, vifisheni viungo vyenu vilivyo katika nchi, uasherati, Uchafu, Ulevi, tamaa mbaya, mawazo mabaya, na kutamani, ndiyo ibada ya sanamu; kwa ajili ya mambo hayo huja (mateso) GHADHABU ya MUNGU.

Kolosai 3:5 - 6.....

(d). UTEGEMEZI.

Kutokana na tabia ya Ulevi kusababisha Vurugu, Ugomvi, Matengano, Vipigo umaskini nk matokeo yake imeleta utegemezi kwenye jamii nyingi. Unakuta Baba au Mama kakimbia familia watoto wanaangaika, Maangaiko yao hayataathiri tu familia bali jamii na taifa na kuwa watu wa kutegemea misaada kwenye kila kitu.

Kimbia na Epuka Ulevi kwa sababu ni HATARISHI kwenye maisha yako, Mkimbilie BWANA YESU Akuokoe kwenye Ulevi. Je upo tayari?

.....Tazama, nasimama mlangoni, nabisha; mtu akiisikia sauti yangu, na kuufungua mlango, nitaingia kwake, nami nitakula pamoja naye, na yeye pamoja nami.

.....Ufunuo 3:20....

3. 10. TABIA YA 10: "KIBURI - PRIDE"

......Tutaendelea......

tumaini - a popular artist on social media sites. his personality shows through his online posts: a loud, brash, and determined young artist. he tries to stay positive but there are some who seem to pick up on the more negative undertones of his posts. recently, his art has been appearing in music videos made by an anonymous music group.

nobody knows that the bright-spirited prince and the artist with dead eyes are the same person. and he really wished it stayed that way.

🌓The Veiled World🌗 Character introductions - Residents of Falguard Watch

Its time I introduced some of the characters that I'll eventually get around to telling the stories of! Today I'll be focusing on some of the residents of the town Falguard Watch - a border town established to ease tensions between both sides.

The town is built on a plateau up against a cliffside, and there are two distinct halves; - Shelter, which is closer into the cliffside, and better sheltered from the elements. - Overlook, which is closer to the edge of the plateau, with a wide view over the hills and valleys.

Falguard Watch is located within the continent of Veil, though some of the characters are connected to Lahab, another continent to the south.

So, lets look at a few of those townsfolk who live here:

Selveta Uamea The tired blacksmith from abroad (originally from Lahab), who currently lives in Overlook. After an incident about a year prior, she lost all passion for her work and her cheerful demeaner faded with it. These days, she has very few customers, due to her change in attitude pushing away most people, and only her contract with the town watch allows her to consistently keep herself fed. Constantly beset by the weight of what happened in the past, she struggles with depression and alcohol, and suffers from night terrors almost every night. One of the few things that keeps her going is the support from the very few friends she has left who still stand by her.

Although she has lived in Veil long enough to speak the language fluently, the only thing she can read in Veilan script is her own name.

Camilia Suzette Dewfort A girl who dreams of adventure, currently living a short distance away at the closed mining camp. She loves stories of adventure, but following a misadventure with her father (involving colourblindness and dangerous plants), it is something that she knows she can't live out. After contracting a particular condition, her left arm is always bandaged, and for her own safety, she cannot utilise her own mana for fear of agitating her condition. She used to live in Shelter with her mother, but after her father was kicked out, she was practically housebound so the town wouldn't find out about her condition, until she met Desanka.

As the daughter of an explorer and a physician, she is well educated. Since running away from home, she prefers to go by Suzette.

Desanka Tumaini An orphan girl whose parents were from Lahab, though she has always lived in Veil. Originally, she lived in a small migrant village in the hills, where they were never too well off. As she approached adulthood, their village was raided and most of the people there didn't survive. After this, she found her way to Falguard Watch where she had to survive however she could. During this time, she spent a lot of time learning to steal from the richer people in Shelter, and befriending a pet rat, who she felt kinship to, as people treated her as though she was vermin as well. This continued until she happened to visit the Dewfort household, trying to sneak in the same night that an adventurous girls decided to sneak out.

Desanka cannot read or write at all, despite her attempts to learn. Instead, if she needs anything, she will get Suzette to help her.

Helmi Vind-Ylande The daughter of a Veilan man and a Brymir woman, she is half-Brymir and stands head and shoulders over most other people in town. Her mother was a warrior in an invasion where the hulking Brymir assailed eastern Veil. She tried to raise Helmi to be a savage warrior like she was, but even when she came of age, Helmi struggled to meet expectations. When she finally did take blood, she didn't take it well. Helmi was disowned by her mother after this, and had to fend for herself. Though she was able to handle herself, she wasn't well versed in survival techniques, and soon fell ill from eating meat from an otherworldly creature. To a Veilan, this would be lethal, but her constitution from her Brymir blood kept her going until she was found by Rico de Souza, who would take her in and become her adoptive father.

For a long time, Helmi didn't even realise what writing was, as the Brymir don't use written communication. She also has no sense of taste, which she lost in her time surviving alone.

Sofia Vestito A knight originally from the Order, which controls the territory to the north. Sofia first arrived in town as part of a squad tasked to investigate the mine near town. She was not among them when they returned, and ordered the mine be closed off permanently. When Sofia was found unconscious, she was unaware of any time having passed when she was awoken, though a lot of it had. Grappling with the loss of her old life, her loyalty to the Order, and a newfound sense of fidelity towards the person who found her, she struggles to find her place in the present day.

Sofia is well educated and literate, but completely unaware of events in the time she was trapped in a coma. She is also very stubborn about trying to handle things herself, with good intentions for making life easier for those she gets close to.

Rico de Souza The proprietor of one of the local inns, The Salty Collier. The business was inhereted from his brother when he passed away from unnatural causes. He then did his best to uphold both The Salty Collier and the side business that came with it. He has a knack for bringing people together, and especially for taking good care of those important to him, though often he tries to keep his involvement to himself where he can. He knows a lot of people, and seems to have ways to get anything done, whether you need a letter carrying half way across the continent, or finding out where a fugitive is hiding. Most people know not to get on his bad side, but nobody seems to actually know why.

Rico is fully literate, and even knows how to write in Lahaban script. He's not the most educated, but he knows where to look for anything he doesn't know himself. Do not cause problems for Helmi, and you'll stay on his good side.

Yvonne Wildwall A retired assassin who used to be an assassin, but retired. She was in the employment of the Kingdom of Falcross, working directly for their military. She ends up retiring when she meets with Rico, who offered her a job working at The Salty Collier. She promply rejected, with no intention of working as a bar maid. However, she did stick around, feeling indebted to Rico. She does end up helping out at the bar during The Shroud, and on specific occasions, but she will always officially tell people that she is retired, and generally doesn't work for pay unless she needs to. Unfortunately, very few people get any retirement funds, but Rico does his best to help when she needs it.

Yvonne has lived in a relatively small world, she knows the places she's been and not a lot more - she's been an assassin for a long time, and her teaching and training didn't go a long way past that skillset. Now that she's intended to quit the profession, that skillset isn't needed, and she's ended up more naive about the world than you might expect.

That will do for now, although there's a couple more people. I might give the Falguard Watch Town Watch their own post though.

What are your favourite headcanons for Harry x Darius? (And maybe treat us to some individual headcanons if you have the time!)

Ooohoohoooooo I'll gladly answer this

♫ Okay so starting off with their favorite music genres: Harry really like's R&B meanwhile Darius really likes pop. They gladly listen to each other's music though.

♫ They are roommates. (Ohmygod they were roommates). Despite having awards in Redshore City, they still only live an apartment because 1. Darius isn't actually that good and 2. Harry doesn't make all that much money from his shows.

♫ They definitely love the view though. I mean, who wouldn't be absolutely enamored by the lights of the city?

♫ Darius likes to call Harry Moonpie because he reminds him of the night sky, what with his black fur and his shiny crystals like the stars.

♫ Likewise, Harry calls him Sunshine, because he reminds him of the sun

♫SHHH NOO I DONT HAVE A SUN/MOON DYNAMIC WITH THEM NOOOO (i'm lying, i totally do)

♫ Darius also helped Harry take care of his hair. It's much healthier now, although Darius refuses to spill the secrets to his perfect hair

♫ If they're not eating take-out, Harry is usually the one who cooks. Especially after the "ramen incident" (Darius forgot to put water in his ramen and it caught fire)

♫ Darius is actually one of the few people that know Harry's real name. Harry is actually just a stay name!

♫ Darius likes to call Harry's name to annoy him <33 (lovingly)

♫ Harry likes to thinking of Darius as his bodyguard sometimes, as he's always quick to protect Harry when someone insults him or threatens him.

♫ Darius helps Harry take care of him physical health, meanwhile Harry helps Darius practice mental health

♫ Darius likes to ask to be hypnotized "for funsies". Harry outright refuses to do it to him.

♫ Harry's real name is Tumaini

♫ They both take things literally. Darius because he's a little stupid, and Harry because he's autistic.

♫ They're bi4bi t4t btw

♫ Harry has a lot of angst surrounding his family and feeling like he disappointed them, especially after losing them. Darius of course tries to help calm him down.

♫ Of course one of his methods includes snuggling down in bed and watching a movie or TV show (reality shows are their favorite)

Now I'm imagining a ragtag party of ethnically diverse 15-19-year-old girls on a quest to Find Out What Happened/Get a McGuffin that will help their settlements/whatever.

They arrive at the next community of ragged-but-getting-by survivors, and--as is the custom--have a sort of town hall where they explain what they're doing and what they've seen along the way so far. The leader of the settlement endorses their quest and urges the people to share any spare food or supplies that the party could use.

As they're getting ready to continue their journey, a new 15-19-year-old shows up with a full pack and a look of determination. She declares that she's coming with them. Their quest is important, and could bring about a better world for her village. And she feels a personal responsibility because, "...what your journey is really about, is hope. And I know a lot about hope. You see, I was the first baby born after we started this community, and--"

The lead adventurer sighs. "And your parents named you Hope."

The new girl deflates a little. "How did you know?"

"I was born right when my family harvested our first successful crop," the leader explains. "Hope," she adds, pointing to herself.

"Mine had just survived a fire that wiped out the settlement they were building," adds another, who wears a cowboy hat and speaks in a drawl. "Also Hope."

"My mother went into labor in the middle of a blizzard, and she and my other mom just barely made it to her community," another explains, indicating the first girl who had spoken. "They took us in, and...well, my moms hadn't met her yet when they named me. I've spent my whole life being the other Hope."

"We'd just lost all of our supplies to road bandits, and my parents named me for what they needed most," the fourth girl says, in a slight Spanish accent. "Esperanza."

"I was also first born in my community," says the fifth girl, who is Black. "Tumaini. It's Swahili. You can probably guess what for."

After her are three more Hopes, and a Mizuki, who is of Japanese heritage. "It's almost like it's some kind of curse," one of the Hopes adds. "You hear over and over how your being born meant hope to everyone you know, and then what else are you going to do, when a chance comes along to save the world? Anyway, welcome aboard."

It must suck being the second generation of a post apocalyptic world cause like half the population is gonna be named Hope or some shit

[dcndrolust]
