And *drumroll*... Y'all Got The Right Answer! Number 1 Is A BIG Lie.

And *drumroll*... Y'all got the right answer! Number 1 is a BIG lie.

Corah doesn't have a good relationship with her mother, she doesn't have a connection with her at all- her mother abandoned (walked out on, left, etc) Corah and her dad when Corah was around 6 years old. Yeah not a nice relationship.

Corah really resents her mother for this throughout the story, and the core of Corah's inner turmoil/conflict (the need to prove her worth at all costs) is born from this childhood wound.

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.

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?)!

Character Design Poll

So when I made this Picrew @illarian-rambling who's beta reading for me mentioned she imagined Kelsey with shitty black hair dye instead of her blonde hair.

I only mention Kelsey's blonde hair twice. But I love the image of her with cheap black hair dye.

So I've no choice... Do I make her hair dyed black?

Kelsey Context:

Shy

Thinks she's emo

Wears mostly black

Is actually very sweet and cares so much for people

Like she takes care of her younger cousins

She's eleven

Very sarcastic but most of it is in her head

Crochets

Has reality warping powers

She's gay but she won't figure it out until like Part Three

Has a filled in Bingo in this post

Still want to know more about her? Her tag is here
