For this list of worldbuilding prompts.

Are there any foods with symbolic meanings that are eaten on special occasions (e.g. katsudon for victory, or new years oranges for luck)? How did the tradition get started?

This was a challenging one! Here are two foods with symbolic meaning and / or eaten on special occasions.

Ambertree fruits and the Þuar

Ambertree fruits are the apricot-sized, very fleshy galbulus of the ambertree. They have waxy white skin and pink flesh, with a single large seed. Their flesh buttery, with a peculiar taste that is both cloyingly sweet and very resinous.

Ambertrees are cultivated for their resin, which can be carefully prepared and baked into artificial amber. For the Þuar peoples, who first mastered ambercraft, both the tree and its fruit are sacred. The fruits were traditionally only eaten by ambercrafters in the purification ceremonies undertaken as preparation for the delicate processes of ambercrafting, or harvested for religious offerings.

After the Þuar Wars, the Namitan Empire stole the secrets of ambercrafting and began growing its own ambertree orchards and training its own ambercraft masters, coveting the wealth to be obtained through the trade of the precious material and aiming to weaken the still-free Northern Þuar Queendoms. Ambertree fruit is considered a delicacy in the Namitan Empire.

Roasted meat and nuts and the Ranaite Tahen

For Ranaite Tahens, the inhabitants of the city state of Ranai on the Ojame archipelago, any meat meal is a special meal as the archipelago's high population density leaves very little land available for the raising of livestock (fish, seafood, and insects make up the majority of their protein intake, along with the meat of some small livestock like kabi).

Roasted meat, however, is a truly special thing and reserved for the solstice festivals. Ranaite Tahen have a strong cultural fear of fire, and fire is heavily regulated within the city of Ranai. Solstice festivals are days of exhuberance and nervousness as (heavily watched) open fires are lighted around the city and meats and nuts roasted on open flames to celebrate.

So, today i want to talk a little about my Tav, i've had many but my favorite will always be Rose, my 2nd Tav, a Bard/Rogue.

I'll start from one thing that i love: bullet points!

Name: Rose Ambertree

Age: 28 years

Race: Elf

Subrace: High Elf

Height: 1,62Mt / 5'4"

Background: Entertainer

Class: start as a Bard, multiclass with Rogue

Likes: color purple and all that's in that shades of color (violet, lavander, ecc…) flowers, reading, studying languages

Dislikes: Krakens (as for the chat with Halsin), thunderstorms, drinking too much alcohol

Romance: Astarion

Physical appearance: she's a small and thin elf, not very muscolar, her hair are long, often braided to be much confortable during journeys, her natural color is pastel pink, she wonders from who she inherited this particular shade because no one in her family has it. The eyes are azure and slightly almond shaped. She has a burn scar on the outer thigh of the right leg since she was a little girl.

Psychological Profile: she's quite a solar person and classic let-me-help-you type of person, she doesn't want to be seen as sad or down by others; she suffered a lot when she was little and no longer appreciates the pity of others once she lets her guard down and shares something about her past. Only with the people she trusts blindly does she open up and show her weaknesses.

more details of her story before the game oncoming!

Y’know, 2 weeks ago I would give EVERYTHING to get Amberle out of that damn tree, but then I saw Ander die, today I saw Arborlon taken over by The Crimson... Let me tell ya, I just hope that The Ellesedil Family is back together in the afterlife, they are all together, Amberle is with her loved ones... Ander is there and Aine and her mother, Eventine, Pyria, hell, even that jerk Arion. And Amberle got a giant bear hug from her dad and uncles and everything is alright. Because that ONE THING I cared about the most in this show from the very first scene of the pilot was this family. Now... Whatever will be, will be, I just hope noone else dies (*cough*Allanon*cough*Mareth*cough*Wil*cough*Eretria*cough*Lyria*cough*)

If I had a nickel for every time half of one of my ships turned into a tree, i'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot but it's weird that it happened twice.

Okay but the one Ambertree appears to to warn of the coming darkness is Eretria. Yeah, there was nothing gay going on between those two.

She said sarcastically. :3

Cautionary Tale: ??

Story:

No one knew how he had done it. In the first moon of his reign--Smokestar’s body was barely cold!--five cats went missing. Droughtstar had merely smiled and remarked that they had been sacrificed. He declared Partridgepetal as his deputy, and received his new name that night.

Rumors swirled. Would Droughtstar be even crueler than previous leaders? Queens cradled their kittens close and cried that night.

The pattern continued. Cats were vanishing left and right, and, in the middle of it all was Droughtstar, with a cheshire smile on his face, and Meadowleg at his side.

Even the known murderers of the Clan had to admit that they were terrified. He walked through his Clan with a lethal elegance, and was known for turning ruthless in a heartbeat. The only members of the Clan who were safe from his unpredictable nature were kits and apprentices, who he adored. Even his own kits weren’t safe from sacrifice, and they went missing with startling regularity.

It was noted by many that, even though her kits were presumably being murdered by her mate, Meadowleg never said a word. It was murmured throughout the Clan that the queen had been born without a heart, though no one dared say it in front of her.

It became routine to barricade the walls at night, to say goodbye before goodnight.

Elders complained that they missed the days of Smokestar, who at least had made it known what happened to his victims. These elders were shunned and scolded by the rest of their Clanmates, for, as horrifying as it was to speculate, at the very least, Droughtstar didn’t kill kits. Even when the kits tore at him and pestered him, he never so much as hissed.

When Meadowleg retired, Droughtstar stopped being so diligent in his sacrificial duties, and, eventually, queens stopped the practice of ‘smearing’ their light-coloured kits.

As Droughtstar started to lose lives to old age, he called his son and deputy-- Bluffspeck--forward to hear his last words.

Trying not to cry, Bluffspeck knelt beside his dying father, who whispered to him. “I never killed a soul, y’know. I just exiled them and told them not to come back. Worked to make all you bloodthirsty youngsters think I was killing, but y’know what? When I get to the Place of No Stars, if you make one single sacrifice, I’m going to drag you there with me.”

Bluffspeck mewed in distress, but his father, with his fateful final words, was gone.

Princessrover for ever!!!!!!!

!!!

Like, I am such a sucker for enemies to lovers trope, and having them at odds in the beginning and then growing through the season with Eretria coming to begrudgingly respect her to ultimately being ride or die for her. The banter that they shared was so good, and I freaking love the episode that they got stuck in the old underground school together. The tension between them is what made it so good.

But like I said on the other post, I am a little biased because I love the story of how characters get together as opposed to the actual relationship itself (hence why I think I have a stronger connection to subtext pairs) so having Lyria and Eretria as a pair at the beginning was a little bit of an ehhhhh move for me. I didn’t get to see their journey and was essentially thrust into an ‘established relationship’ fic and those kind of storylines are more difficult for me to get invested in.

Who knows though, maybe if season 3 rolls around I’ll have a change of heart, but until then I think I’m just going to go and reread some of my fav princess rover stories!

[qiyansluvr]

I just started (and finished) The Shannara Chronicles between wednesday and yesterday and I really liked it. What a coincidence that the trailer for season 2 was dropped at the same time, I didn't have to wait long lmao. Anyway, I've seen that princess rover was for more popular than other ships, which I can totally understand because the actresses' chemistry was off the charts, in an amazing kind of way, but you known, the hearts ships what it ships and here I am shipping the hell out of Wil x Amberle. So yeah, I'm feeling a little alone... Also, it seems to me that there was a shipping war at some point? Please don't tell me it's true. I've been in pant fandoms with shipping wars, and me, as a multishipper as well as a ship and lets ship kinda person, it's so tiring.

Okay, end of the rant, I think I'll start making gifset in a few days, so if anyone as request, hit me up. And if you want to talk about tsc, please do, I'm obsessed

[willfulylost]

Shannara season 2 has been soooo good I wish more people were watching t b h!

It feels like every character is getting their due and the story is tightly plotted out and everything is coming together these final episodes next week. I’m highkey STRESSED over that cliffhanger but I assume either Garet shows up to save them or maybe Mareth busts out that Dangerous Magic she’s been talking about somehow. Also did I spy Lyria slipping an engagement ring onto Eretria’s finger in the promo? :’o And now all storylines are converging on Lyria and the warlock is coming for her and that mean’s she’s getting her big hero moment, I’m sure of it. :))

And I’m very emosh about how obviously in love Wil and Mareth are and how he was so hesitant to leave her even though leaving meant seeing Amberle again who he’d been wanting to see forever. T__T And now of course he’s been able to put the past behind him (and even Ambertree was picking up on the Wil/Mareth feelings lol). I’m scared about how they’re going to deal with the whole “the druid must be forever alone” thing Allanon was talking about but the feeling I got from that scene was that Mareth is going to decide the “old way” needs to change and shunning companionship isn’t the way to go. 

ALSO I’m kinda shocked they’re gonna address that Mareth is the last Elessedil and totally thought that would be brushed aside. Like my girl is both the inheritor of this huge druid legacy and also heir to the elven throne she’s got so much on her plate. I just looove how much primacy Mareth has gotten in the narrative basically!!

About the Shannara finale & season in general

This is gonna be long so…

First of all, i wanna be very clear. I’m not trying to spread hate for the show. I love this show. i would never say anything hateful cause i appreciate how this show is and how it wants to be, and i don’t want it to be cancelled due to negativity. I’ve just been frustrated about it…at least lets say since the finale, and I’m writing this to try to get it out of my system.

First of all, I’m a wilretria shipper. since day 1 Eretria&Wil have been my babies. so I’m sure you can see where some of my frustration comes from.

Second. From day one my favourite characters have been Eretria, Allanon and Ander (see why my frustration?)

Eretria: I love Ivana. when she won the Goya award i clapped like crazy. And then turned our Eretria was awesume. Anything anyone would want to be. Strong, an amazing fighter, brave, loyal….and as we also learn, kind and even sweet.

Allanon: i love Manu since i don’t know when, so him being the druid guy…i knew it was gonna be badass. and then it was. and i couldn’t love Allanon more.

Ander: the cool friendly uncle. helping niece to run the race, going to get her at the party like “omg girl you look stunning, that’s ma niece” and then talking relationships with her. I JUST LOVED HIM. and then he also made impossiblefor me to focus on tragic moments. i don’t tag him “the ‘dat ass’ elf” for no reason…

Well, so far you can see season 2 has not given me happiness in this matter. 1 became ashes and the other a waterfall (sort of)

What frustrates me about these is, well..the books. I still haven’t read them, cause i was waiting for the end of the season, but i read a couple of things, from which i got that Ander&Allanon probs both died on the 3rd book. Ok, i can deal with that but...I can’t? cause I thought this season was filling a gap between book 2 and 3. but that’s ok i guess. follow the book way too early.

But what gets me about this is that then I can think or say, “ok, so i guess then they will also follow the book for Eretria and Wil, right? I mean…cmon. It doesn’t seem like that for now, but you know, that’s what a season 3 would be for”, but then people say “oh cmon, the tv show doesn’t have to follow the book, stop with the books”. But the thing is, season 1 was very much like the book from what I’ve heard. I remember reading in the Nerdist website they said they wanted to keep it very similar to the book, that they only made Eretria have more depth and do something more than FALL IN LOVE WITH WIL AND FOLLOW HIM AROUND (sorry, dunno why that capbloq itself…oh wait, i do) So, they are gonna follow and even make happen ahead of time things that happen in the book, but others..neeeh. ok, that frustrates me.

And one other thing, since i’m talking about my ship. I feel wilretria shippers have been mostly completely silent this season. I don’t think we have created any drama regarding Lyria. We just kept getting blows and letting that relationship happen without saying a thing. Because we fear if we say anything we will be called “homophobic”, get hate and things like that. And it is frustrating cause we aren’t voicing ourselves because we aren’t dicks, and we are letting everyone enjoy their ship, but this may ruin any chance of our ship happening if they think we don’t care. And we are seeing it getting even harder with the Mareth thing. So i want you to understand, i don’t care if Eretria has a gf, she is bi so she can have all the gfs she wants. But shutting out Wil completly as a possibility cause yes...no. I love Wil and Eretria even since before i watched the show. I do care, so much.

Now about season 2 in general:

PROS

Garet Jax or “jarjar gax” how i like to call him for funsies. total badass. I wished we could have know what was his past entirely cause it seemed interesting, dammit.

Mareth: She was cute and sassy, a magic user in a different way we had seen, which was cool! and then, related to Allanon, which is great considering we also know nothing about Allanon, or Mareth’s mom. So nice, she could be anything and take us anywhere

And on that note, something I’ve always appreciated about this show, from Tilton, to Allanon, to the gardener, to the background actors, to the rovers & elf hunters...this world really seems like a real post-apocaliptic world cause there’s people from all etnicities. these season some more in leads. good show

This stupid season made me love Wil. That lil bitch annoyed me so much. But he is too cute. And we saw him in his lows and in his highs. using the magic unwisely, hugging the hell out of Eretria when it turned out she wasn’t dead (this poor kid, i swear to god. a whole year thinking he lost Amberle and Eretria; the latest being his fault for leaving her behind). Also he made his peace with Allanon awww. And to be honest I love his death scene. It mirrored Amberle’s and now all our 3 heroes have died to save everyone (let’s not forget ma rover bleeding herself out, ok?) And thank whomever must be thanked, he isn’t dead. You can’t die when i start to love you, a-hole. tho that’s what this show does to me.

Eretria: We got to see where she comes from, what will be her challenges and how her loyalty to her friends is stronger and bigger than anyone could ever have thought. Also she was badass as always.

Ander. I mean, Ander is everything. anything with Ander was the best scene ever. dat ass. best king ever. bless. he also said Eretria is family and at this point I dunno if i want Eretria to marry Wil or him cause honestly “yes, i remember when i met your mom...i fell for her instantly. i mean, she kicked me in the face and let me unconcious, but..” is a great “meetcute” Also the threw that traitor down the waterfall omg my king is so fucking badass.

Allanon: i mean...pfft it’s allanon. everything about him is a pro, duh. Giving him a family and showing him caring for Wil was nice too. he is not a heartless guy. he loves all this crazy kids.

Bandon, Riga, Warlock lord: god, you bunch of asshoooles. i hate you all so muuuuch. Good bad guys :) The warlock lord became my hero when he de-headed Riga. you deserve it biiitch omgggg for Andeeeer. Then the Bandon thing...i mean...poor Bandon, but bitch, you had everyone occupied and Riga killed Ander. Then my new hero warlock lord killed that ship traitor Allanon (i was like that’s what you get! but then he was cursed and became ashes....and i was like, ok a bit too much) and then he did the other thing and i was disappointed on my new hero. i was all “i was rooting for youu” They all where awesume at being bad. is awesume having such great baddies

I can’t believe i almost forgot her

Ambertree: or Amberle, as you prefer. I really didn’t want her to be back for the sake of my ship. but I also did start crying when i saw her in the trailer. So i guess i love her too. And seeing her was so nice. I missed the elf princess. but stay as a tree please Amberle. (ps, also wtf amberle you too with the Mareth thing, i take it back, i hate everyone on this show)

CONS

Ander: Can you please explain to me what the hell has this poor thing done to deserve this shit? His brother dies. he becomes this depressed drinking ball of an elf and loses his gf. years later his dad, his bro, half of his goddamn castle, his ex he still loves die. ALL DIE. His niece becomes a tree. And he has to be king. Also Eretria kicked him in the face (i kind of ship it) And then we get to season 2 and the girl he is with s murdered (....i wasn’t on board of this anyway cause god Catania, you effed the Bandon inprisonment, didn’t ya. but if Ander my love was happy. but no. and then he gets murdered trying to save this girl (Eretria i’m never going to forgive you for being up to tell her to get up and run, but not to throw a knife and save my elf husband). and so the story of Ander ends. Being throw down the traitors waterfall, where no one can recover his body and give him the royal funeral he deserves. I will forever be bitter about this, i kid you not. #longlivetheking

Allanon: Again, my babies cant catch a break. He is trying to stop Bandon, turns out he has a daughter with his loved one and we don’t get to see them become dad and daughter. I had already accepted he was gonna die because i read someone saying “after what happens in book 3″ And then he drops that “you and mareth are ma ship” bomb. my brain: “oh you asshole how dare you to compare them with you and Pyria. You can die now, byeeeee” (i’m evil, i know).

Eretria: I feel this season didn’t do much for her. I guess she did all the development she could do in season 1. But i feel they mistreated her a lot. I get she has a girlfriend, or so, cause at some point she had broken up with her i think...but i feel the way they made her interact with Wil was just weird. The little times they interacted. that was annoying. (those two have so much chemistry they have to keep ‘em apart or we all would be arranging their wedding by the “welcome back, shorttips”) Eretria has always been in love with Wil, let’s be honest. We all saw her face the day Wil said “there is no us” or when she saw him kissing Amberle. We all know without Amberle in the picture things would be very different. Does no one really remember he was up for it the same day he met Eretria? and then some days after in the palace room? (also let me point out Eretria does love will cause to rob some stones she could have giving him an “Ander” and leave. but she didn’t. she stayed, and said would never call him shortips again). So this two at the very least had the hots for each other to begin with. Also let me remind you how Wil cried when Eretria died. He used the stones for something else than killing a demon for the first time to save her (if that doesn’t scream love, soulmates, endgame or whatever, i dunno what does) And this season, tho they have kept giving us sweet moments of the two, where we shippers kept our hopes high (the tree girl was gone, this was out moment), and we hoped to see THEM FALL IN LOVE AND GET TOGETHER (since its a space between books, you know)... and that’s why the complete anulation of this ship is so painful for some of us. We felt Amberle was some sort of puppy teenage love, and Eretria would be the true love woman for Wil....but no. anyway...a Shannara and a child of the Apocalypse. Good magic & (bad/good) magic. ancient kings blood, ancient humans blood. like honestly.

Wil: I’m not gonna blame the poor kid for being an emo and be mad at the world, cause his life went to shit last epi of last season (if not all season in general). And i honestly developed love for him this season. BUT...this thing about him and Mareth...I feel it came out of nowhere. They were just friends and then one day she makes eyes to him and he makes eyes to her? there wasn’t even a big thing where i could say, where there they realized they love each other...and out of nowhere they are the biggest love story eveeer. im sorry, no. i can’t. I get everyone loves them, but i...no. (again, i guess is the wilretria shipper in me who sees more past and more development in the relationship and that this was happening too quickly out of nowhere) (Also the pre-death kiss, that was i guess so romantic and adfghjklñ....kinda ruined the scene for me. like “oh ffs, die already, Wil!”*narrow*” was a thing that happened in my brain)

Others: I dont think I have much complains about the others. One of the only ones is Lyria’s storyline. i feel like the only thing i saw her do was mope and cry? and that one time she stood up to her mom, planned a wedding with Ander and once held a sword (which i feel they really exploded to make her look badass)...i feel like they made this character to be the love interest, and im sorry for it cause it could have been so much more. Also that “don’t wanna be a princess I’m running away but yas i wanna be queen” thing...does it even make sense for the person we were introduced to? also it was the fact that I had to buy into her love story with Eretria. When i saw in the trailer she was gonna have a gf i was like, oh no...more difficulties for my ship, but hey yes, let’s see what happened here. But then...i didn’t know anything about them? when did they meet? how long have they been dating? “where you go, i go”...where does that come from? how did i know what Lyria’s mom told Eretria about her saying that to everyone wasn’t true? Maybe my ship blinds me, but i feel this relationships started as if i started season 1 with will and Amberle frickfracking and then she becoming a tree and I’m supposed to be super sad, but i can’t I don’t know if it makes sense since i shipped Pyria and Allanon since moment 1 but that’s probably my “omg star crossed lovers, him staying young while she grows old, not seeing each other in 30 years shdfadlgfhañsla” loser heart Mareth: I was here for the magic kids friendship until it stopped being a friendship. now she is ruining my life. and i don’t appreciate it.

((me being annoying: also the blingbling palace was too much for me, omg did i miss Arborlon))

Ok, I think that is all. I know it seems like I didn’t like this season, but omg, i loved it. it was so intense all the time, and so many awesume fights, and some great new characters. Is just that I had hopes for my ship just to see them sinking more and more. at this point I’m Artax and my ship is more a submarine.

I can’t wait to see what they do in season 3 (and probably cry and hate everyone cause my ship sinks), but this show is too good to end forever in a “to be continued”. I want my babies back

and please show, stop getting people i love into #crispinskorner
