Smooth Sumac: What's something that's common & generally helpful in your story?
Thank you so much for the ask, @clairelsonao3!!!! I'm sorry for the very late answer, I'm trying to catch up with my old tags and asks this week!
Smooth Sumac: What's something that's common & generally helpful in your story?
Well, this is a complicated question lmao! I would say that, in the setting of my main current WIP Of Starlight and Beasts, something really helpful is magic. One can use magic to heal illnesses/treat infected wounds (ahem, for example like that one chapter where an enchanted potion literally saves Kyran from dying from an infection after being rescued at one point in the story -), to find their way in some specific locations, to make food taste better, to build extravagant buildings, to make combat easier, to tell children stories (like a little movie, only the sorcerer is casting images)! Almost, (and that's a very BIG almost), anything!
Another example of where magic is really helpful is Tomasa's shapeshifting ability, which allows her to turn into a giant, extremely shiny, dragon. This not only allows her and the other MCs to get from one kingdom to another more quickly (which, since they're literally racing against time to stop an ancient evil from destroying everything, is really a question of life and death. especially in a medieval world with no extremely advanced means of transport readily available for everyone) but literally saves their lives more times than I can count (after all, having a dragon on your side in battle definitely shifts the tides a bit, wouldn't you say, lmao?)!
OC In Three (Of Starlight and Beasts Edition!)
Thank you so much for the tag, @cowboybrunch!
Here goes an aesthetic for my book's dark prince (and conflicted awkward boi) Bastien!



Plus, have three songs that have his aesthetic:
Icarus by Bastille
Just a Man - Epic the Musical

The Brothers’ Temple
So I edited the pic(s) above to the best of my (albeit limited) ability. The temple in Harmony of Seasons sits on a lake in a forest. Four statues reside there, but only three at a time. One statue is always awake—no more, no fewer.
Auro awakens in spring.
Cosmo awakens in summer.
Cedras awakens in fall.
Kryos awakens in winter.
They are brothers, the gods of the four seasons, cursed for their endless quarreling and doomed to spend eternity apart.
