There is a strong parallel between Alicent Hightower and Cersei Lannister in their positions as queens and their ambitions related to the Iron Throne.

Welcome to “Queen of Spirals”

A corner for unfiltered thoughts, raw emotions, and words that don’t ask for permission.

I’m not here to pretend.

This is my personal space —the place where I write what I think, what I feel, what weighs on me or sparks something inside me.

Sometimes it’ll be deep.

Sometimes it’ll be chaos.

Sometimes it’ll just be.

I write from emotion, instinct, and reflection — because some days I need to let out what doesn’t fit into my stories, and other days I just want to speak without anyone asking for structure or a happy ending.

I like to think this blog is like my mind:

A beautiful spiral — tangled, messy, full of ideas that crash, collide, and blomm. Not everything will be polished. Not everything will make sense. But everything will be honest.

What will you find here?

Random personal thoughts.

Intense or soft opinions, depending on the mood.

Reflections that don’t fit anywhere else

Moments of humor, exhaustion, nostalgia, or rage

And the occasional reminder that I’m alive and feeling

This blog isn’t made to please —it’s made to release.

And if you feel the same, maybe you’ll stay.

See you in the spiral.

During the Tang Dynasty, men's clothing was mostly dominated by the round-collared robe. Going into the Five Dynasties, followed by the Song Dynasty, the criss-cross collared robe came back into fashion again with various styles being worn (alongside round-collared robes).

In the painting, "Along the River During Qingming Festival" (pic 2), you can see that the workers on the boat and doing manual labor are all wearing short versions of the criss-cross collared robe, while shop owners are wearing long versions. Although there wasn't a strict rule that one can only wear one or the other based on wealth, artefacts show that most likely the working class wore shorter robes for ease of movement.

In the painting, "Literary Gathering" (pic 2), several people are wearing half-sleeves over top of their criss-cross collared robes, showing that the garments could be mixed-and-matched as desired.
