Gülperi - en melodisk "ros-älva"

En övning i bläckteckning med koppling till mina berättelser och…Melodifestivalen? Gülperi är en person från Yakanes, en av mina berättelsekaraktärers, bakgrund – hans första kärlek. Liksom han tillhörde hon den härskande klassen av slavursprung i Kiralatet, en stat inspirerad av vår verklighets Mamlucksultanat som härskade över stora delar av nuvarande Mellanöstern mellan 1250-1517. Gülperi var…

ZLATA OGNEVICH - Що б там не сталося (OST «Кава з кардамоном»)

[scalpelandrose]

Lanterns in the Snow (Beastman AU)

Songs to set the tone: Pomogi Mne/Help Me (Gorod 312) | Gravity (Zlata Ognevich)

A/N: I’m very, very, very overdue posting this AU having conceptualized this last year, but I am happy to officially add this now to the AU collection 😂 This 1 holds a special place, being a means to write an allegory of trusting in one’s instincts, exploring human connection to nature, & as always, evaluating how justice can be realized for the disserved. Part of a collab with @/starrybrujita & @fireflykaizoku 💙

Summary Concept (1st POV):

I come from a solitudinous town situated between two mountains, defined by its ambition to conquer the natural elements. Tales of “Ghost of the Mountains” taking the form of snow leopards & deadly beastmen were often told around fires in a string of cautionary anecdotes. Yet, to me, the snow leopards’ sentence to a barren landscape in attempts to atone for something they never committed in their current life sounded lonely.

The tales, along with my fascination for herbal medicine, only bolstered my frequent visits to town edge and even outside its walls and even though sightings of snow leopards were extremely rare, from the stories, I grew to respect their reclusive tenacity and a curiosity grew in me regarding those who were half-beast and half-man, due to carrying intense feelings to their graves in their past lives. I felt most free while scouting for plants, such as feverfew, milk vetch, or any that were suitable for patient needs, and in moments where it was only me against the backdrop of forests and mountains, I felt most comforted. Since I was typically alone, I’d sing out into the unknown and draw some pictures in the snow at my leisure; yet I was unaware that I had a watcher the entire time. As someone who was drawn to knowledge, I was an outspoken advocate for having the money we recently acquired from integrating other towns to go towards open & unprejudiced education and healthcare, instead of the coffers—but of course—I was met with heavy opposition for those who wanted pocket money.

Eventually, it was time for a coming-of-age ceremony for a councilman’s son, where he would hunt a beast with a ceremonial bow on horseback, while every eligible youth in town were required to attend. However, it was a harsh winter, so Law happened to be prowling closer to the town than usual for food & despite calculating when he would sweep up leftovers from camp, he was spotted and the chase began. Horrified, I grabbed a horse from nearby the medic tent to race along & cut off the hunting party, emphasizing that killing a snow leopard would mean the sins they embody would transfer to their killer and thus bring ruin to the town*, but no one listened & Law was severely wounded, before an emergency pulled everyone back to town. I secretly stayed behind & found a cave where I could tend to him, with some gauze, antiseptic, witch hazel, and tundra roses to stop the bleeding. To ease his pain, I sang to him & told him stories to lull him to sleep. I remained with him for 3 days, before leaving a hefty bag of food I collected to sustain him until he fully recovered.

Life seemed to be normal when I returned, save for new encounters with mystery paw prints in the snow where I often frequented and herbs that only grew deep in the mountains. However, 2 years later, I was brought in for questioning for poisoning an elder. My brief absence during the ‘emergency,’ involving the poisoning of that very councilman’s wife in the middle of the hunt, followed by an aptitude for apothecarium and poisons, made the perfect opportunity for a few political enemies to try to frame me. I was tried, declared guilty on trumped up evidence, & sentenced to ritual execution. They blinded me with fire & left me in the tundra, for the gods to exact their wrath—or rather— to rot or be eaten, but, before the elements or other beasts could claim me, Law detected a sharp scent of distress through the flurry of snow and rescued me…taking me deep into the mountains, so no one could disturb us.

Initially, I felt frustratingly helpless and useless, having relied on my eyes for most of my life, but Law patiently nursed me & guided me through surviving the wild, through helping me tune into my other senses. He became my eyes, taking me by my uncertain hands and describing all before me in vivid detail, to where my imagination desired nothing more. Surprisingly, he also had a log of medicinal plants and methods, so after he found me a walking cane, we frequented outside his den to look for whatever either of us fancied. All he asked in return was that I continued to tell him stories and any histories I knew. At times, it felt like we were the only 2 beings in the world, especially on blizzard nights when the fire could not keep, and we clung to the other for warmth.

Later, before the spring equinox, I learn that Law had lived without a family, since he was a cub and suffered instances of bestial berserk in a path to atone for his past life’s sins, which he was still trying to decipher. Feeling my heart ache for him in knowing the deep isolation he felt and that he was another being who felt wrongfully repenting for something out of their control, I offer to be his pillar and friend in his quest, to the best of my abilities. In our time together, I help Law to absolve himself of any sins he carries from his past-life and he helps me learn to trust my instincts on a nuanced level. Hand-in-hand, and careful touch-by-touch, the world opened anew to us & our companionship transformed into love. He eventually found a way to restore my sight & I free him of his burdens. As for the town, let’s say that it wasn’t Law & I who faced the wrath of wintry gods, but they for exacting fabricated justice and attempting to make nature bow to them. (It’s another long story when we cross paths with them again).

(And of course, we end up having cubs of our own with a tranquil life amidst the wondrous mountains.)

*in Nepalese legend, killing a snow leopard transfers the ‘sins’ they carry onto their murderer. Even now, poaching snow leopards is illegal, especially in Central Asia
