Ensiferum was one of my formative bands 20 years ago. Not my first metal band but the first folk metal one, and it just is a genre that combines most things I love.

If this ends up in the metal side of bluesky, hook me up with some of your local folk metal

She caressed him with one last touch of her heart. *He could never have been made– he was too perfect to by made.* The affection in the thought spoken into his own heart could almost have broken him.

*cries in engineering* But I agree. I'm not personally too worried that AI will be a replacement for good books. What I fear is that those with money just won't care and we already know that if it's only cheap πŸ’© that is available, people eventually won't know to ask for any better.

Tali/Astrogali is a game played with knucklebones or 4-sided die, popular in antiquity. The real game omitted the 5 and the 2. These two characters are playing the modified, fantasy version.

This is a moodboard for my book! From left to right: a candlelit xmas feast, a cottage in the woods, flanked in snow, a pine tree decorated in red garlands and candles, a wooden, rustic kitchen with large windows overlooking a snowy forest, a mistletoe teacup, an elderly couple gazing lovingly at each other, two hands entwined, a wicker basket full of pine needles and fern branches, butter shortbread biscuits and crisp red apples on the kitchen counter

In a sentient inn, a witch and her guests bake shortbread.

Faces warmed by firelight, windows framing snowy hills. Flour paw prints on floorboards. Laughter and cloves in the air.

The witch hums 'winter wonderland'. She's in love but she doesn't know it yet.

Sifrida wouldn't want to be the hayseed queen of nowhere, but when you have a half-starved kingdom, manure matters more than silk and silver.
