Oh, to have what others have... Life would be so different...

I'm happy that Irish artists will have support to pursue their passions! I hope seeing their success pushes more governments to follow.

Aerlind, a tall and handsome Elf with warm-toned, fair skin. He has deep black, straight hair that cascades down his back in a gentle wave, tied back with braids. He has monolid, warm amber eyes. He wears smart, finely made elven robes and leather armour in shades of sea blues and greens. A bow is slung over his shoulder, and in his hand he carries a golden astrolabe. He stands against a wide and warm coastline.

In front of him are the words โ€œThe Fourth Age: Book Threeโ€ and โ€œChapter One: What May Be Preserved.โ€

WE ARE LIVE WITH OUR PREMIERE!

The armies of the Dark Tree are on the move. Middle-earth will fall. And all that stands between the Reunited Kingdom and its ruin is a fellowship of six. But in the face of such shadow, is hope enough...?

Six individuals stood together, looking down into a cloudy valley:

- Theodas. A muscular Elf with strong dark features, framed by a thick, greying beard, wearing a grey cloak over a dull golden chestpiece.
- Iairen. A human with handsome, dark features, his face framed with long brown hair with a soft kink to it, wearing a dark blue robe. He holds a spherical seeing-stone in his hands.
- Mistiel. An Elf with beautiful dark features and long white braids, wearing a hooded auburn cloak over dark leather armour.
- Eona. A woman with tanned features and long black hair, intertwined with golden scales, wearing heavy brown leather armour and a single steel pauldron with fur lining.
- Chicory Taproot. A Hobbit with delicate, pale features, and wavy brown hair, wearing a flowing purple dress, with white frills and an apron.
- Aerlind. A tall and handsome Elf with deep black, straight hair and elven robes in shades of sea blues and greens. In his hand he carries a golden astrolabe.

Above them are the words "The Fourth Age: Book Three" and below them "An original The One Ring adventure. October 7th, 12:30pm Pacific."

Tomorrow, The Fourth Age comes to an end...

The forces of The Dark Tree descend upon the Reunited Kingdom of Arnor and Gondor. And all that stand between this ancient evil and the ruination of Middle-earth are six heroes: a fellowship.

Our third and final season begins tomorrow, 12:30pm Pacific.

I'm laughing at how I managed to get the same position for taking a photo of me as Nike, and just how different I look between session 1 and finale because of makeup and lighting.

I fucking hate this so much. I hate this so fucking much, but I can't continue to stay silent anymore while my integrity is continuing to be misconstrued and people keep getting hurt. This statement details my experiences while living with Noir Enigma (@/thenoirenigma) when I was homeless.

As always priority to PoC, & in the case specifically, to under-represented (or oft-misrepresented) traditions.
