Re: Revamping Spirits of the Light
The Song of Motion has a single sort of spark creator deity that devises the five elemental siblings. In line with the elemental bits, I was working on a catalog of Cousins to the Siblings (while stuck at my desk for ten hours) that would account for further variations in the theme. A catalog of spi...

Alhazen's Physics
This book will eventually include medical treatments following the outline I made in 2013. It will originate from the late hand of Doctor de Alhazen. “The common man understands the world as he is able to understand it. A man that is not blind knows that blindness is the absence of sight and may on...

Re: Revamping Spirits of the Light
Del, The Spirits of the Light, to me, is the monotheistic interpretation of Charalin culture cultivated in Lithmore post-Dav and post-Days of Fire. The use of the word Lord in the helpfile is indicative enough of this for me. I would like to see something more involved, perhaps even a less watered d...

Origin of the Arts
This tract is adapted out of Saint Bonaventure's 13th century "Retracing the Arts to Theology". The "theology of light" was popular at the time. If anyone has ever actually been into a cathedral, you will understand how light, space and scale create a holy imagery that is greatly at odds with the r...

Re: It is for Love that Yarsith Burns: A Bard's Tale
Probably at work, Leech, that's where. I think this is going to be a good little yarn. Gweran's historical absence always bugged me. And -someone- had to get Martis le Cabot out of Tubor. Hope you enjoy it. I'll be adding more as time goes by.

It is for Love that Yarsith Burns: A Bard's Tale
Vignette in progress. A possible take on why Gweran was not at Yarsith.

Re: Unpacking the War: Notes on the Consolidation
Though this was originally an off-the-cuff text dump to incite discussion, my recent rereading has revealed a great deal of grammar and other mistakes. One day I would like to revisit this material and clarify it to a higher standard of quality. I was considering an audio or even video series of ent...

Re: Pregnancy and Treat
Slightly witchy medical technique of the time involved pouring the suspected preggo woman's urine on some frog eggs. Something about the massive hormone content would cause the eggs to change or cause tadpoles to appear.

Re: Unpacking the War: Notes on the Consolidation
Tubori capitol taken, supply chain becomes priority In thinking about the Tubori campaign as a whole, I often wonder how Dav was able to maintain such a large military force in such an isolated area for so long. Zeta pointed out that the capitol was taken within two years and that the remaining five...

Re: Unpacking the War: Notes on the Consolidation
Notes on morale in warfare How did Dav maintain morale over so long a time when the first major engagement of the war was a tropical hell? One can only imagine that Dav, a hitherto untested battlefield commander save for minor previous engagements against other Lithmorrans, had to rely upon and lear...
