Some warm ups!!

[rumeysawrites]

Happy STS!! Can I request an infodump of Thiruneah? She sounds cool!

(also how do you track all your characters? Is it a spreadsheet or something?)

Yessss! Thank you! Thiruneah is probably one of my lore characters that even I still feel curious about!

As one of the three goddesses tgat emerged from The Might (the primordial force that made up the all of Existence) in the very beginning. She was the second of the three "sisters" to come into existence, after Eliltta (the goddess of life and creation) and before Nihynia (goddess of space, worlds, and dimensions.

Thiruneah is the goddess po time, and the one pillar of the Triple Balance that is always standing. The ever-flowing threads of time are conjured,c ontrolled, and protected by her.

Unlike her sisters who often went around to maintain life or the universes they've created, Thiruneah would basically never leave her domain at the center of Existence. She was the one who made sure time flowed as it was supposed to for every universe, world, person, etc.

Basically, she was one of the key reasons there's any order at all in Existence.

Of course, such a responsibility could cause someone to grow very strict and rigid, as Thiruneah is known to be the least lenient of all ten of the deities with crystald, as well as the kast to volunteer.

In that sense, Thiruneah is probably the epitome of a l"awful neutral" character, as she has a very strict moral code centeering around keeping tge balance abd order of the Existence togather, but also being unwilling to break those codes even if it means any hero or villain asks for help from her. She's a stable force of nature, strong and seemingly unchanging.

The most well-known myth about her in Interdimensional, is about her punishment of Arfene (goddess of magic) for implementing time as an element for some of her magic systems without asking for Thiruneah's permission. It's believed that Arfene had lived ten thousand years of mortal lives, reincarnating in a different world of Thiruneah's choosing every time she died.

She's also the deity who (albeit reluctantly) gave power for the Crystal Of Time, which Kent has in the main series, and later Alondra finds one of the missing pieces of. Time as a spellcasting element is banned by both BSA and Dark Crystal, which only three people at max are even permitted by Thiruneah to have the access to it in the first place (that being Kent, Wilfrid and in incredibly minor ways, Alondra), as it's considered one of the most dangerous elements a person can wield. Both that and everyone knows what the fact that happened when even a deity tried to use time nagic.

We will also see Thiruneah in both the Divine Trials Arc and the Time Travel Arc, which happen in and after year 8 respectively. However unlike Eliltta and Nihynia, Thiruneah doesn't have as large of an impact on the Legendaries, not because she can't, but because she chooses not to. Remember, what she watches over is far more than just the timeline of Eight Alters. She still does what's necessary for her to do but doesn't go further thsn that.

Lastly, in one of my side stories that I co-write with a friend (where we put our single characters through a fun matchmaking event, and trust me there are over three hundred of those characters-), Thiruneah is matched with an immortal fire elemental named Ignacius, who's among the most prominent vessels Lorkness (Beislar), making him one of the main antagonists in the series. I do know they will interact at least once in the main series too, but I'm not sure how it'll happen or how it'll go.

I hope this was enough infodumping about our lovely Lady Time. :)

As for how I keep track of my characters... I'm not 100% sure either. I do have three separate lists (one on my Notes app, one on my Character Story Planner, and one on Quotev), but none of the lists are complete, the one in my Notes app in particular having outdated names for many of the earlier characters I made. And none of the lists sp far include some of the important characters such as Iluthmil siblings, Keegan family members, Francis, Beatrice, Jarek, Roimata, Cassandra, or Aphelion.

Turns out I mostly keep them in my head and remember through their roles (as I used to always forget that Dark Crystal's main tech guy was a dwarf man named Gwydion with a grumpy grudge against Frank, until I gave him a proper role in the first Meras arc). But having an organized list does help, which I'm working on. I promise.😅

There was an immediate blink from the angelic prince when the energy lessened. He stood up, "You're... not getting my sister... not for cloth, not for anything else."

And when the feeling left Ana for a moment she felt rather hollow again. Her feelings. Her wants and desires didn't exactly diminish then. The only difference was that now she had control over herself once more. "You're sister wants a Priestess for the night, she'll still get that, but I do need the Magi crystald. You just need a better exchange. "We do have some of the best cloth on the continent."

The prince thought for a moment, "10 bundles of cloth for one crystal."

Ana nodded. Those crystals were rather powerful. It was at least a fair deal on the end. "Deal." She decided. Everyone in the room looked a little weak. A lot of them revealed things that they shouldn't have, so Ana sighed and said, "I think we should all finish this meeting in the morning. You're still here for a few days after all." No one seemed to object to that.

Throwback Thursday ⏱

🎮 | Tomb Raider: Anniversary (2007) 👨🏻‍💻 | Crystal Dynamics • Eidos Interactive

For our last TBT celebrating Anniversary, here are a bunch of environment concept artworks from the reimagined title provided by the CrystalD team.

Here's to hope the Embracer Group won't just sit around with their thumbs up their asses like Squeenix did and will actually supervise the future of Tomb Raider. Would be fun to see them take the IP away from CrystalD and give it to someone else. Someone more competent and willing to listen to the classic fans as well.

Maybe under the new management we will get to see the adventure-loving sassy Tomb Raider we used to know and love and discard the "relatable" crybaby with daddy issues. Guess we have to wait and see.
