The fires of civil war have cooled on the Adretian Empire, and Sir Gregor, knight of Adretia, wishes only to return to his home after the bloodshed. But something stirs in the darkness; from Alfheim, the dökkálfar strive out in their longships again for the first time in centuries, while the empire's erstwhile enemies in Rûsland stand silent against the bloodshed. A cold, dark wind from the east rises, carrying blood and swords. The Swordwind Rises.

Just a passion project for me since I love fantasy and Medieval history, so to combine them both will be... oh so fun.

Also now on Archive of Our Own: The Swordwind Rises

"What do you think of death?"

The only correct answer is "I don't think about it".

Constantly worrying about things outside of your control is meaningless. You're only hurting yourself.

Turn off the news and live a life.

Turning off the news would probably solve the mental health crisis overnight. 

Literally every generation has thought they will be the last generation. 

And yet the sun still rises in the east after it sets in the west.

If it is the time, then it is the time. But if it isn’t... just live.

The fuck is “Cozy Horror”?! Sounds like some made up bullshit!

Oh yeah… Basically someone was talking about ‘I like horror but I wish it didn’t have all the dark, terrifying stuff. Maybe something a bit more cozy or wholesome?’

And when people pointed out ‘Um, that’s… Kind of the point of horror?’, others chimed in with ‘No, because things like Over the Garden Wall exist!’

… Even though OtGW would be classified more as American Gothic or Creepy-Cute, not horror.

Technically OtGW would be classified as ‘Folk Tale’, and be ranked with pre-Grimms fairy tale.

Physics: More pencil tricks

i.e. why when you or someone else gets stabbed or impaled, you should leave the object in the wound until medical help arrives.

THIS. RIGHT HERE. This is an amazing example!!

If you take the thing out, they’re going to bleed a lot more.

SO. DONT.

News Flash from the Medical Help ™ — we don’t touch it either! Unless the object they’re impaled with is literally too big to fit in the ambulance, We. Don’t. Touch. The. Thing.

The only people qualified to Take-The-Thing-Out are surgeons. End of story.

Okay, but for the love of God, please, PLEASE, if you did, if you panicked and took the thing out…. DON’T…. PUT IT BACK IN.

Or else, congratulations, you just stabbed them AGAIN. I reeeeeally shouldn’t have to say this guys, but I do.

Congratulations,

YOU JUST STABBED THEM AGAIN

i feel like that last comment should be accompanied by a bill-wurtz-style jingle

So the head guys at work trust me enough to reduce prices for dated and broken stuff, and also the assistant manager said that last week, if she had needed it, she would have given me the card to do manager calls since I do know what I’m doing.

That was somebody's mom whose dream had always been to be a restaurant owner but sadly she married into the mafia and she was like the mom of someone important and moms are like the one authority italians recognise so when she put her foot down and said "NO. We are going to make them great food and give them the most lovely evening!" Nobody dared disagree and thanks to op she got to live her dream for a night she probably remembers them as fondly as they remember her

I’m going to go to bed and dream of women that I will never have a chance with (read as: any woman).
