silly character names
My mom and I's favorite names in the Kingdoms and Empires series that we like to say out loud because they make us giggle:
Snatty Ra-Ra
Ronaldo C. Torrington
Jonathan J. Lanyard
Librarians rock!
I just realized today that librarians have saved the day at least 4 times in kingdoms and empires so far, here is how:
The librarian on Lantern Island (who is unnamed) encourages Bronte while she researches a way to clear her Aunt Emma from jail just as Bronte is about to give up by giving her a plate of cookies :) letting Bronte find a key piece of evidence!
The librarian on Lantern Island later finds Bronte the contact information for Ronaldo C. Torrington, leading to the reunion of Bronte's Aunt Carrie and her long-lost lover, who she marries!
Carlos, the librarian at Katherine Valley Middle School, helps Esther find the books about magic that she eventually uses to defend her school against Shadow Mages even without Spellbinding (because she is very smart, brave, and practical).
Carlos later gives Esther a stack of books about Horseshoe Island Ogres, giving her information that exposes her teacher, the malicious Mrs. Pollock, as an evil ogre and saves Esther's class from Mrs. Pollock's insidious manipulation!
I guess I just have to learn how to draw!! ha. haha. hah.
what it feels like to be in a small fandom with little to no fanart or fanfiction
If I had a nickel for every time the rules of ancient magic are lost to time and become only the realm of the isolated academic despite once being known by everyone, and when the magic returns no one believes it except for the few people who have been chosen by the magic already and the specialized scholars, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't very much, but it's still kinda weird that it happened twice, yeah?
p.s. It’s in two of my favorite books, The Stolen Prince of Cloudburst by Jaclyn Moriarty and The Way of Kings by Brandon Sanderson.
"We covered the boy with a blanket and Astrid set his plank of wood (the one with the wheels) alongside him, tenderly tucking that in too. It had seemed special to him"
Yes, they just tucked a skateboard into bed. I laughed so hard. In their defense, they had never seen one before lol
