7 Circles An Intro Presentation

🌐7 Circles🌐 An Intro Presentation

There's no such thing as being too late to a trend (is what I'm telling myself here.)

Made using Canva. Extra slide via link cuz Tumblr caps at 10 pics. Also may be better quality.

This took a really long time but I'm really happy with the results!! 😭💕 Trying to explain or summarize my story is hard and nerve-wracking but something about making a presentation clicked for me.

Tagging everyone bc I'm so so stoked about thisss ❤️‍🔥

🌐7 Circles: Entry

Preamble/chapter 0/intro page

(Tf do you call something like this? Help?)

🎉and its my 1st writing post!🎉

7 paragraphs, soft tw for heights. (Respectful) concrit welcome: Could you imagine the characters? Did this pique your interest? What do you think about the length?

High above the earth and sailing down from the heavens is a ship, winding its way to the ground like a feather on the breeze. It looks much like the kind that would sail on water, albeit a rather small one, and the warm colours of its curved wooden keel gently contrast the azure and gold sails curved to fullness by the wind.

At its helm, upon a deck lit brightly by the sun overhead, four hands grasp the ship's wheel. Skin blue and bangles gold, the tall figure turns the ship, using the strength of all their limbs to move the sail against the wind current.

Their thigh-length mauve braid of hair whips about them and their eyes, entirely green from pupil to sclera, narrow against the wind. It didn't much matter where they landed, so long as it was within the un-poisoned area of the surface world, but The Kalilith people didn't have a winter on their isle in the sky and the explorer didn't much fancy finding out how well they would fare against the vast arctic region on the north end of the continent below.

The gilded sailboat creaks as it changes course and a second Kalilith comes up from the cabin below to join the first. He's taller and his four bare arms more muscular. His red eyes look to the person at the helm, his expression cross as he marches across the deck.

"By my south hand, child–The current is too strong for that!" he says, raising his voice against the gale as he speaks to his more delicate charge. "We should let the wind carry our descent, not turn against it!"

Magic vessel it may be, but the ability to ride the wind and the ability to withstand it were two different things. The male Kalilith barely reaches the wheel before a loud snap is heard and he turns to see rigging being ripped out of place.

"But our trajectory had us flying into a tundra! If we land only to die before making contact, the mission is forfeit!" The first one retorts, aristocratic accent sharp as they raise their voice. They may be the younger of the two, and they're certainly no warrior, but it was their mission nonetheless.

"Take care of the rigging.” they order, “If I can get us past the ice we'll be much better off," they catch the red gaze of their attendant who hisses in contempt before rushing to comply.

Far, far below, a citizen of chilly north Danaport squints up at the sky, gasping in disbelief as they see something fall to the earth.

"What do I call you?" Probes the voice, and this time their own voice cooperates just long enough to rasp out their name.

"The-Stars-In-Their-Eyes-Seek-The-Spirit-Of-The-Cosmos.."

"...Well that's a downright mouthful." he mumbles, and their stiff neck eases their head towards his sound.

The voice is revealed to be coming from a head on the floor and Seeker's stomach flips with shock. They then realise with wonder.. he's in a pool of sorts, with only his copper-haired head and slight shoulders above the dark surface of the water. The scent of the ocean.. Did that pool connect to the sea?

The ginger is frowning, "Eyes that seek.. Will calling you 'Seeker' do?"

What a short utterance to refer to someone!

But they were far more interested connecting with man in the water to fuss over it, and perhaps it would make the troubled man more comfortable to have things his way. They decided to simply accept the nickname.

“Um, yes. Yes ‘Seeker’ will do fine.” They say with a smile, bemused at what must be a surface custom. Now that they’d said it aloud, it was actually somewhat adorable in it’s shortness.

🌐7 Circles🌐 Ch 4: You're Very Welcome

By the time Seeker reconvenes with Duke Vayne, over an hour has passed and they're feeling leagues better. Their skin was washed and moisturized, their hair meticulously cleaned, dried, and re-braided. They even allowed themself a small emotional breakdown in the shower before returning to their role of poised diplomat.
