Some of my favourite Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild/Tears of the Kingdom art is by @malintfalch (on Instagram and Twitter).

This one in particular is so hauntingly beautiful to me. It's based on the famous painting "The Fallen Angel" by Alexandre Cabanel from 1847, one of my favourite paintings.

Small fantasy worldbuilding elements you might want to think about:

A currency that isn’t gold-standard/having gold be as valuable as tin

A currency that runs entirely on a perishable resource, like cocoa beans

A clock that isn’t 24-hours

More or less than four seasons/seasons other than the ones we know

Fantastical weather patterns like irregular cloud formations, iridescent rain

Multiple moons/no moon

Planetary rings

A northern lights effect, but near the equator

Roads that aren’t brown or grey/black, like San Juan’s blue bricks

Jewelry beyond precious gems and metals

Marriage signifiers other than wedding bands

The husband taking the wife's name / newlyweds inventing a new surname upon marriage

No concept of virginity or bastardry

More than 2 genders/no concept of gender

Monotheism, but not creationism

Gods that don’t look like people

Domesticated pets that aren’t re-skinned dogs and cats

Some normalized supernatural element that has nothing to do with the plot

Magical communication that isn’t Fantasy Zoom

“Books” that aren’t bound or scrolls

A nonverbal means of communicating, like sign language

A race of people who are obligate carnivores/ vegetarians/ vegans/ pescatarians (not religious, biological imperative)

I’ve done about half of these myself in one WIP or another and a little detail here or there goes a long way in reminding the audience that this isn’t Kansas anymore.

That feeling when your birthday comes and you are now older than one of your favourite characters 🥲😭

I don't know why I always feel weird and a little sad when I turn a year older than a comfort character

Stroke is always something that has scared me a lot, to the point where I avoid reading about it out of anxiety, but this is extremely important!!!

I found out about Liam Payne's death a few minutes after he died, as I happen to be in Buenos Aires.

I hadn't been following news about any of the former One Direction members since their last song together, so it came as a complete shock to me and many others. I of course was sad for him, his family, friends, and fans for what happened, as well as him dealing with mental illness and addictions over the years.

A few days later, I'm feeling a second type of sadness that I didn't feel on the day he died. It was the realization that Liam Payne and the members of One Direction were some of the most prominent musicians in my childhood; Liam was the one who sang the opening lines of "What Makes You Beautiful", the song that made them famous. Knowing that a celebrity from my childhood is gone feels odd. I didn't expect to be feeling this way a few days later, especially as I have not been following him or the others in years. It feels like a more selfish sadness, like a mourning of a part of my childhood rather than him. I hope this doesn't come across as insensitive. If it does, let me know and I'll remove this post.

I know people had been losing respect for Liam over these last few years, and although I don't agree with anything bad or controversial he may have said or done, it always fills me with so much sadness knowing someone has suffered and struggled with their internal problems for years and unfortunately show their bad side with the world, only for everyone to demonize them rather than recognize that they need help. It happened with Britney Spears, Justin Bieber, and many more; they too acted out, became violent, rude, controversial, and even criminal. The difference is that they are still around today and people have been able to realize their struggles, addictions, and behaviours years later; unfortunately, Liam Payne never made it.

Again, I don't know everything about Liam Payne, and I don't agree with any negative or bad things he had done or said over the years, but I still think it's okay to be sad and mourn him. It's completely human, especially with so many social media posts about him.
