Otherworldly Historian

@godlyfantasy12

I did one a few day’s ago, did you miss it? Or do you want me to do another one?

Cuz, I’m not sure what he should do XD

@esther-c

I love it! I think the descriptions are good, but I do have a few questions. How well simulated is the Orb’s sunrise? Would it look cartoonishly fake? Like a yellow spot going up and down, or does the Orb make it look far more like the real thing, and they just knew it was fake? If it look looks like a giant bright yellow dot that goes…[Read more]

SERIN

Where in Depth’s Pools do they keep their healing beds? Serin thought to herself.

Water from the fountain streamed from her hair and onto her skin. The silvery green saliva from the monster had dried near her puncture wounds, and now her muscles clenched and convulsed as the poison started to spread…[Read more]

@mkfairygirl

So, the powers are hereditary. And because there is a lot of prejudice and hate between each country, families have stayed in the same country for generations. They don’t leave their country, and they don’t marry outside of it. Am I making any sense, lol?

Cool! Watch Avatar the Last Airbender, it is very akin to this, and it’s jus…[Read more]

@otherworldlyhistorian

I feel like I am more of a taking inspiration from history person because most of the things I do take end up being changed to fit the story and work differently from their real life versions. Usually I use the real history as a basis and then end up tweaking it a bunch. A good example is Laizha Brin. The original…

@artsy-dragon

These look epic! Is this for anyone’s dragon art? Or do you want this reserved for your portfolio?

@otherworldlyhistorian

Wow! The depth to your world’s history is amazing! I notice a lot of events that could be pinpointed as particular allegories to real world events. Would you consider yourself more of an allegorical writer, or just drawing inspiration from real world history (as you would need to either way)? Do you want to make particular…[Read more]

@lightoverdarkness6

Thank you ❤️❤️!! Yeah, Dylan hasn’t really had it sunk in yet until the scene after this one, which I’ll post if you want (once I write it lol), and he’s just reeling. Everything happens so fast and once he’s got a moment to just think…well, it’s so shocking for him, understandably. And poor Asher is just going through the s…

@godlyfantasy12

Your welcome!!! Thanks! linguistics is always really fun to think about!

Yeah, that makes sense, there’s some really cool art out there!

@godlyfantasy12

Sorry if I’m a bit late to the conversation, but I love your world! Your races gives me a lot of DnD vibes. Do you draw from that at all? I really like the culture, and the Jewish inspiration is cool! If your still not sure about greeting phrases, here’s my take. What is something these people value deeply. You’ve mentioned that…[Read more]

@lightoverdarkness6

Sorry I took so long to respond.

I love this! You can see the turmoil that both Dylan, and Vance seem to be going though in this scene, though Vance’s is more subtle. Vance cares for this boy, but he’s cruel, and wants to turn him into the monster he is, because that’s what he believes it means to be a man. Can’t wait to hear…[Read more]

@otherworldlyhistorian

Ok so I just lost the post I was going to do. I think it will take me a bit to retype so I am kind of sorry about not getting back about Kharvian culture yet. I was going to make a post for each of the eastern countries (and Animar which is technically not a country. At least not yet). There is also a western Kharvian…

@godlyfantasy12

AHH I love your lore and races!!!!!! It all sound fabulous and I love the Dryads especially!!

Sooo, *rubs hands together* you need suggestions about what to do with your cave mining race?

Hmmm, well do you know why they are mining things? Do the other races buy it from them? Or do they have special properties that the Kobalds…[Read more]

@lightoverdarkness6

AHHH!!!! Dylan, Asher!!! That was so good girl!!!

@keilah-h

Yeah okay! That makes sense, I’ll try for tomorrow then, and we’ll se if anything interesting happens!

@keilah-h

Oh okay! I will RP depending on my schedule tomorrow and Min said she wouldn’t be on as much because of a writing camp this month, but that we could still tag her. So if you have time today I would be fine if you went before me!

@artsy-dragon

Love the dragon! Good detailing!

@loopylin

Poor Dante!! And yes I ship him and Ellie by the way 😉

@godlyfantasy12

Yeah I think some poisens can infect just by touching your skin but I think Dante will be fine in this case, right Loopy?

Not sure what’ll happen to Serin though, I think poisoness sea creatures normally paralyze things they bite? I have no idea XD

@godlyfantasy12

Sorry It took me so long to get a chance to read this. I love it though! I don’t have much context, but your doing a good job at showing the turmoil Corvina is under, wanting to do what is best, but how much ‘best’ is really just what she thinks needs to happen? She doesn’t want to do anything bad, but her shadow offers…[Read more]

@otherworldlyhistorian

I can respect that. What some say is the best thing about Sanderson is that he gives great gateway stories for whoever is looking to get into darker fantasy. He knows how to just write people, and how to create an intriguing and different world, and as he says himself, he’s a showman. Maybe some might consider him the Bob…[Read more]
