Esta Es Una Robe Volante O Robe Battante, Este Vestido Fue Supuestamente Inventado Por Madame De Montespan,

Esta es una robe volante o  robe battante, este vestido fue supuestamente inventado por madame de Montespan, una de las amantes favoritas de Louis XIV también conocido como el rey sol, para esconder sus embarazos. 

Este vestido seria modificado, hasta convertirse en la robe a la fraicase. Me gusta mucho pues da una imagen “inocente” a su portadora

This is a ruffle robe or robe battante, this dress was supposedly invented by Madame de Montespan, one of Louis XIV's favorite lovers also known as the sun king, to hide her pregnancies.

This dress would be modified, until it became the robe à la fraicase. I like it very much because it gives an "innocent" image to its wearer

The Princess of the Fable (Blindsprings)

Hello everyone as I said in my previous post I am going to analyze the fable of the annotation of the webcomic Blindsprings. At first it looks more like a fairy tale at first glance but Harris refers to it as a fable and not as a tale. A fable is a story or literary composition in prose or verse that provides a teaching or moral advice, a story on the other hand is a short narrative, oral or written, in which a fictional story is told with a small number of characters. an underdeveloped intrigue and a quick climax and final denouement. So history must have a teaching to be a fable.

Here they tell us that the Llyn family was very evil as always, but a princess apparently Tammy was the only kind member, some readers like me will already know that Tammy supposedly according to the academics support them, so now they paint her as "the sheep White". What strikes me is the following:

If you read the foreword to book 2, you know this is not true, Tammy knows another place besides the palace walls. She lived in a cloister much of her life, and Gregoire implies that it was a more humble or at least morally better place than the palace. Besides the bird, Tammy's spirit guide is a quail not a crow, this may be simply because historically crows are associated with evil, while a quail seems more defenseless and beautiful, and the guy who wrote this was possibly an academic with an intense hatred towards spirits, so I would try to make them look as bad as possible, or for another reason, but it seems unlikely to me that another person is being represented with that motif of birds, whose spirits take as a form. The other thing that seemed strange to me is Tammy's hairstyle, I know well she sometimes braids her hair in a single braid

She never does in her time as a princess

But there is an Orphic princess with braided hair, who has always lived in the palace, has never known anything else and whose bird motif we do not know: I speak of Aliana

I know she has appeared little and her behavior is anything but good, but objectively she is innocent, she has never done anything wrong apart from annoying her sister. I know the author has had a conceptual arts of Tammy as a princess with braided hair.

But in the final product Tammy doesn't look like that. On the following pages, I notice something interesting

Flowers fade, thorns grow in their place, and more birds appear. This is strange the spirits are necessary for nature to flourish not wither like those flowers, it would make more sense that those were the academics whose actions have caused the slow deforestation, but again it was possibly written by an academic, they will never admit their guilt and They will use scapegoats, just as they do with the power outages in which they blame Orphic and not that by sealing them they are cutting off their own source of power. The thorns can represent those that cover Tammy's seal, and allow her to continue serving the spirits. The coloring of the room reminds me more of the colors in which Aliana is usually represented

A sign that the other princess is. Maybe? I know you were wondering why write a fable as the protagonist to Aliana but draw Tammy instead? Well Tammy is the closest to Gregoire, leader of the revolution, but the subject also knows Aliana and although they have not interacted yet, he seems to know her more deeply since when he comforts Tammy, he calls her by her name, explains why. his behavior looking for the precise words as if he lamented a little for her and to some extent he justifies her without ceasing to admit that his actions are cruel. Aliana may not always have been like that, but always being surrounded by unpleasant courtiers and although we still do not know the rest of her family except her mother (who is not winning the mother of the year award), maybe they can not be good people, I hope they are not abusive, this, whatever the reason he does not want to marry, made it that way and Gregoire, who already knew the Llyn, knows it and feels sorry for her.

I think that the best Gregoire wrote the book or had it written at the beginning to tell the story of both princesses, not just one, although it is most possible that Tammy was the protagonist from the beginning, having more affection for her, perhaps I include to Aliana as a warning about how ancient Orphic society and its spirits rot young people like Aliana, and exploit girls like Tamaura, the work may have been longer but it was shortened as time went by like many stories in the Real life and as Tammy was the most popular, they added scenes of her sister, and omitted the presence of Aliana as she was just another member of the cruel ex-ruling family that they overthrew and now demonized. It's funny how they present Tammy perhaps agreeing to go with the spirits, when it was her mother who made that decision.

The last page contains the moral lesson, in which he warns about the true nature of the pacts with the spirits, you get what you want and enormous power but in return you will be his tool for the rest of your life. Hopefully the academics understand that by oppressing the Orphics, they are only provoking more people desperate to improve their lives and that of their people, who will easily turn to spirits for their freedom but at a heinous cost. Wait is already happening with the arrival of Tammy, Ariel for wanting to protect her brother and help others has already made a contract, also Street and all the clues suggest that Imogen will dothe same. And our academic friends instead of attending to some reasonable demands of the Orphics to calm them down, only oppress them more with their Gravers, causing discontent even to their own people like Wisteria, who are already fed up with how racism prevents them from taking care of their adopted children This does not look good at all for the future, both for orphics and academics.

Until next time.

I am thinking about comic platforms and their formatting. I don’t know if I am doing it right.

Nuevo capitulo, Avrim enfrenta serios problemas con sus poderes.

El chemise de la reine o vestido de muselina, mas conocido por ser usado por la reina María Antonieta, fue un vestido bastante controvertido por su parecido con la ropa interior de la época, aun así muchas mujeres lo vistieron y fueron retratadas con el.

Me gusta este traje, es muy bonito y a la vez tierno, sin dudan me lo pondría pasando por alto su indecencia.

The chemise de la reine or muslin dress, best known for being worn by Queen Marie Antoinette, was a very controversial dress due to its resemblance to the underwear of the time, yet many women wore it and were portrayed with it.

I like this suit, it is very beautiful and at the same time cute, without a doubt I would wear it ignoring its indecency.
