Having slurped down Swords and Fire I do also now want to write a story where Daine is a full-on Witchlord.

Hi!

I'll keep this update short, I've revamped Azriel's mate. Instead of Hypaxia, her name is Gwyneth (yes she's canon divergent version of the same one from Acotar).

I actually enjoyed her in the books but was wary of making her with all the shipping wars, but now I don't really care ha. I've detailed her backstory below, for those interested.

@luxmaeastra

@starlsssankt

@sankta-alina-s

Gwyneth grew up in Winter, the sixth child of Witchlord Andulvar and High Lady Twyla of Winter. She had five older brothers, presumptive Heir Ravenar, twins Caldris & Caelum, and Kallias & Xanthos.

By the civil war, she'd lost her parents, Ravenar and Xanthos to death. Caleum and Caldris disappeared, many people from the other courts went missing as well in the final days of the war.

Kallias ascended to High Lord of Winter. And when Tamlin abdicated from Spring following his mate Aliren's death, the Court's magic chose her.

In abdication, Tamlin forfeited all his future descendants access to the throne. Gwenyth, being only 20 was sent by Kallias to Sangravah with Ravenar's mate Syrena.

When Hybern attacks the temple, Syrena dies and Azriel takes her to Night to recover like in canon. (happy to have it be a bond neither recognize snapping in the chaos or not). Azriel saves her before the Hybern General can do what he wants with her.

Gwyn, like in canon feels survivor's guilt and is urged to learn to fight by Nesta as they prepare for war with Hybern?

And Rhysand now has the next High Lady to Spring. Gwyneth is 25, traumatized and malleable. I assume Kallias and he are still friends so I doubt he sees anything wrong haha.

Just AHH ALL THE THINGS. THEY'RE ALL FREE TO EXIST NOW.

Strange as News from Bree: NaNoWriMo 2023

Update on my Tolkien fanfic for NaNoWriMo 2023: Cozy murder mysteries set in Bree.

Who Killed the Last King? Who killed the last King?I, said the Witchlord,With my eldritch horde,I killed the last King. Who saw him die?I, said the Snowman,As his tall sails sank,I saw him die. Who’ll make the shroud?I, said the Elfwright,Of cobweb and twilight,I’ll make the shroud. Who’ll dig his grave?I, said the dwarf-smith,In the darkness beneath,I’ll dig his grave. Who’ll keep his…

The Defiant Heir (Swords and Fire #2) by Melissa Caruso

Cover & synopsis from goodreads:

Across the border, the Witch Lords of Vaskandar are preparing for war. But before an invasion can begin, they must call a rare gathering of all seventeen lords to decide a course of action. Lady Amalia Cornaro knows that this Conclave might be her only chance to stifle the growing flames of war, and she is ready to make any sacrifice if it means saving Raverra from destruction. Amalia and Zaira must go behind enemy lines, using every ounce of wit and cunning they have, to sway Vaskandar from war. Or else it will all come down to swords and fire.

A return to the world of Swords and Fire, this time with Amalia becoming deeper entrenched in the politics of the Serene Empire while also seeking ways to improve the lives of mages. While stepping up into her role as the heir to the Cornatto family, she finds herself juggling her desires and what she considers to be the greater good. Amalia has to consider what she is willing to sacrifice and whether the cost is too high.

I was surprised to learn that this was a series as the first book wrapped up nicely enough that it felt like a standalone, but I did love the world and characters so I was thrilled to learn that their journeys continued. It was great to see how the characters continued to develop, with book-loving Amalia taking further steps into the realm of politics and gaining alliances such as considering political marriage with a witchlord. I really enjoyed the new characters that were introduced and how they shook up the dynamics among the existing cast. Zaira remains championing for her freedom and the freedom of the other mages, and successfully convinces Amalia to use her position as the Cornatto heir to begin enacting change. The expansion of the political world was also fascinating, to see how other nations were run along with the continuation of the Vaskandar plot threads from the first book.

A legend from the Dark Ages, the shadowy sorcerer Carthatch Ó Baoill still wanders the Earth today in search of magical secrets. In the dead of night, a sudden chill signals the arrival of Hexenacht, the Witchlord.

"How is it that you, some low-level minion, could possibly be able to defeat such a powerful WitchLord?"

"...he was literally just some guy."

story idea where there's a chosen one that everyone thinks is going to defeat the bigbad, only then some rando that none of the major players had even heard of kills the bigbad before the chosen one can get to him.

so the chosen one and their entourage have to deal with the fact that they've been denied narrative satisfaction.

[s0lavellan]

Summary: Soleil is a mind-flex witch with the ability to shift a person’s will, altering motives and skewing impulses. Her teachers from the online Institute of Magic view her power with suspicion and fear, convinced that its very nature makes her evil. Determined to prove them wrong, Soleil commits to unselfishly helping her town’s citizens for an entire year, using her magic only for good. But the arrival of a mysterious tattooed male witch throws her worldview—and her heart—into chaos.

The new arrival, Achan, shows Soleil secret magicks that the Institute has willfully concealed, and tells her dark and dangerous truths about the reigning body of witches. Breaking magical laws with Achan is wickedly satisfying for Soleil, but the further they go together, the more danger they face from the Witchlords—who will stop at nothing to ensure their rules are enforced.
