[diejager]

if you’re still writing for the monster 141, what about a bay hybrid reader, who is just on the edges on going into hibernation because the base is in a colder area/remote snowy location

I’m gonna assume you mean bear?

Cw: bear hybrid!readr, hibernation, binge eating, hoarding, tell me if I missed any.

Winter was creeping closer and closer by each day, your instinctual need to sleep away the cold calling to you louder than the prior days. There was a bone-deep exhaustion that clung to you, the heaviness that cold weather brought to you was a constant and nagging feeling that urged you deeper in the nest you’d built yourself in your dark room. Your curtains drawn, lights often closed and locks installed, you’d spent the weeks preparing, hoarding soft pillows, thick blankets and clothes from people you were familiar with. 

They were surprised when you brought it up, blinking tiredly and occasionally yawning in the afternoon, stumbling between everyone’s rooms with a small plea on the tip of your tongue. You took whatever they were willing to give you: a blanket from Price and Rudolfo, a shirt from König and Gaz, a jacket from Ghost and Horangi, and a pillow from Soap and Alejandro. As long as it smelled like them, a lingering reminder that you weren’t alone in your humid room, their musk grounding and safety. You wouldn’t be alone.

Price had known you were - like most bears - prone to hibernation, taking between one to three month of your year sleeping away the cold, sinking into your mountain of fabric and sleeping off the coldest months. Your time depended on the year, the warmer it was, the less you slept, and the colder it was, the longer you slept. It might’ve been a bother in people’s eyes - humans - but it was instinctual, a primal part of your brain that still clung to your ancestors who strayed from the path of being normal bears. You couldn’t ignore the pull, the call to sleep, it wasn’t possible for a bear like you, and you were fortunate to have such accommodating teammates.

You grew hungrier, your stomach becoming an endless pit, an abyss that kept taking dish after dish, stocking up in fat and calories that you’d burn during your sleep, keeping you sustained and alive without having to wake up. You ate whatever you that was within your reach, the cold bread, the warm milk, the leftover of two days ago or Soap’s surprisingly good cooking, nothing was safe when you were a big and grumpy and hungry bear near hibernation. Ever supportive and helpful, Soap and Alejandro would jump in to cook for you, hooking Gaz and Rudolfo into being their sous-chef whenever they were free. It was the delicious scent of home cooked and warm meals that brought you to the kitchen, if it wasn’t a call for fixing up someone, it was the smell of good food. 

You were ravenous, gulping down the many, many plates the duo - occasionally quartet - placed on the table, their chests puffed up pridefully at your quick eating, you were practically breathing them in. Your constant eating helped you pack some weight, your skin stretched to accommodate your growing amount of fat that would ultimately burn over the months. And when the day came, you were low on energy, grumpy and easy to anger, your patience running paper thin, bidding your goodbyes and see you soon, wrapping your arms around them and teasing them about missing you during your lockdown. 

You’d sleep through the cold winter months and wake up to a warmer and busier time, to a welcoming and excited team that had spent the better half of winter waiting impatiently for the TF’s medic to wake up.

I just came across this interview Käärijä gave for an Estonian magazine before the Tallinn gig and thought I'd share it with y'all! He talks about saving money to buy a house, why he quit drinking etc. Also, there are some new interesting things he said about Tommy 👀

Since the article is behind a paywall (and in Estonian) I've put a rough, heavily Google-assisted translation under the cut 👇

There are a few minutes left until the concert. How do you feel?

I feel great, but I'm a little tired because I didn't sleep well.

Did you have a party yesterday?

No party, I'm focused on the European tour. Yesterday was a live in Sweden, from there I flew to Finland at five o'clock in the morning and from there to here. But I'm one hundred percent ready for a show. It doesn't matter how tired I am, I give my best on stage.

You recently released the single 'It's Crazy, It's Party' with Tommy Cash. When Tommy met the members of the band Little Big, they drank a lot of vodka. What did you and Tommy drink?

Haha, I haven't had a drink with Tommy yet.

Not even a Pina Colada?

No. Maybe someday Tommy and I will have a drink, although I don't think he drinks much. And you know, I don't drink anymore either. I stopped drinking a month ago. I need to keep my energy up. When you give as many concerts as I do now, you have to take care of yourself. Drinking and performing hand in hand is extremely difficult both physically and mentally, not to mention how bad it affects the vocal cords. I had the biggest hangover of my life this summer, which put the brakes on my drinking. I went to a music festival with a friend where we drank too much. The next day I had to perform at the same festival. The hangover was so bad that I really didn't know how to get myself on stage with the terrible feeling and the summer heat. But I pulled myself together and did the show. This experience is also one of the reasons why I don't drink anymore.

What kind of person is Tommy?

He is a visionary and very witty - a lot of fun with him. And of course he's cute. I think we have something in common, like we both have our own style. Tommy surprises with crazy outfits: extraordinary hairstyles, extravagant clothing, which are complemented by boleros. In short, insane costumes.

After Eurovision, you started a real concert rally - you gave 51 concerts in the summer alone. Do you want to become a millionaire?

Of course I do! One day I will definitely be a millionaire. I don't keep track of how much money I have in the bank and how much I'm short of six figures. But yes, I'm trying to collect a million euros.

Will the goal be met this year?

No, not yet. It will still take a few years. I've had an insane amount of performances after Eurovision, because I was like a kid in a candy store who wants everything at once, but by now I've drawn the line because I can't perform everywhere. I also set myself a price tag, below which I will not allow myself to go anywhere. If you do 300 shows a year, you're screwed.

What do you spend your money on?

I don't just spend it on pretty things. I have a definite goal in mind - I want to buy a house in Finland. Maybe in the future also real estate in Thailand, we'll see. I don't need a Rolex or any luxury, I don't care about that.

What has been the most difficult thing for you since Eurovision?

Everyone in Finland now knows who I am. It's hard and tiring because I no longer have my own private space at all. I can't just go to the store, to a concert, or to a hockey game, people will immediately come up to me and start taking pictures. I hate when they don't politely ask for permission to do this, but immediately start clicking.

What has been the best?

It's great to see people hear 'Cha Cha Cha' and be happy. Or when they hear the name Käärijä and their face breaks into laughter - it's a powerful feeling. And of course to see how happy my family is about this achievement. And me too!

@lgchyoseop Promotions typically mean long hours, but for music show promotions, it seems that much longer. The start time is early in the morning, and when they actually perform, it is typically later in the day. There are hair dryers, make-up bushes, practices, and different camera angles, especially for the first comeback stages. It’s exciting and can be fun, but once it’s over sometimes all Parker can do is wish he could appear magically in his bed. 

He’s sure today will be no different, and as far as he knows, there’s no schedule after that. That fact helps since it feels like he can use up all his energy for the recording. 

Another group is doing a reshoot while Type Zero are off to the side, waiting until the other group is done and they can start. “I think I want mul-naengmyeon for dinner,” he says somewhat offhandedly as he bounces on the balls of his feet, trying to warm up a little. “I can’t wait until summer’s over! It’s kill me!”

Introduction to Ninirāte!

Ninirāte oyhlolwa

Ninirāte is a conlang I've been working on for about one and a half years (on and off), and the oldest and most complete in my conworld Korná. It's spoken mostly by Ninirakxa in the empire of Ninir, but there are a *lot* of L2 speakers, since so many people trade or otherwise interact with Ninir. Today, I'll introduce it here!

Ninirāte on in onusik nirul, zakwak far matil, za lekaluzazhon hla sulur konawāyrāro kwil, za lekame kolungāro Koranāk fi uksikats mul, līr. Nihazil, Niniraluk Ninirakxāk nankwimāts, wirik korāma Niniratun venawasar hlen zwiwar matil tunlāzo, tintuts nankwin wir zāmāk. Txasil, singūl, za ilholwalushuns!

First, phonology

Zwik miral, onawāyrāro

The phonology of Ninirāte is rather unremarkable, but it does have a few quirks, such as a lateral fricative and affricate, bilabial instead of labiodental voiceless fricative, and nasal vowels (kinda). Here are the phonemes (I wish I could make a table):

Consonants

Nasals: m, n, ɲ , ŋ , ŋʷ

Plosives: p, t, k, kʷ

Fricatives: ɸ , v, s, z, ʃ , ʒ , x, xʷ , h

Affricates: ts, tʃ

Lateral Fricatives: ɬ , ɮ (ɮ is very rare)

Lateral affricate: tɬ

Approximant: r (allophone of z), l, j , w

Vowels

High: i, i: <ī>, u, u: <ū>

Mid: e: , o: (these are short in certain environments

Low: a, a: <ā>

Every sound is romanized with its IPA symbol unless otherwise specified, the generic nasal coda is romanized as <n>. Now, a few notes on the phonotactics and allophony:

The maximum syllable structure is CCGVGCC. Any phoneme can cluster with glides, but the only other permitted consonant clusters are voiceless obstruents. A generic nasal can take the spot of glides in coda clusters.

Vowels are nasal before nasals consonants. If these nasals are codas, they aren't pronounced and the vowel is long (except at word end). I still consider them codas, and nasal vowels as allophones, for various reasons (one is that the nasal reappears when a suffix is added. I.e "ilhan" in accusative is "ihlaman", where the m is pronounced but the n is not).

All word-final vowels are pronounced short.

The long vowels e and o are pronounced as short in semantically weak prefixes, such as augumentative ko- and 3rd singular inanimate possessive o-, unless stress falls on that vowel.

An open syllable with a short vowel is on mora. A closed syllable with a short vowel (this includes any syllable with a nasal coda) or an open syllable with a long vowel is two moras. A closed syllable with a long vowel is three moras. Stress falls on the third mora from the end of the word.

Glides are not permitted word-finally. Neither is x, h, or v.

Between vowels, ts becomes s, s becomes z, and z becomes r.

Various things happen to consonants word-finally, but it's irregular and I don't have the energy to figure out what's actually going on so I can explain it. The most important is that -z becomes -r after oral vowels and -s after nasal vowels.

A sample of randomly selected words:

Txor [txo:r] (noun, animate, -a conjugation): fire

Tsūngwi ['tsũ:ŋʷi] (noun, inanimate, -ī conjugation): dawn, morning

Ut [ut] (noun, inanimate, -i conjugation): a year

Tsawirutakxa [tsawiru'takxa] (noun, animate, -ā conjugation): an uncivilized person, a violent person, an unmannered person, an unhygienic person

Zir [zir] (number, -u conjugation): twenty (Ninirāte uses a vigesimal number system)

Nganyūts [ŋã'ɲu:ts] (adverb): still

Ihlolwa [i'ɬo:lwa] (noun, inanimate, -a conjugation): an introduction

An [ã:] (noun, inanimate, -n conjugation): a Niniran potato

Txakwin ['txakʷĩ] (verb, dynamic, -n conjugation): to open one's mouth

Lakizo ['lakizo] (noun, inanimate, -o conjugation): a dead fish

Grammar

Nyakal

This will be a very concise overview, skipping many things, because I don't feel like sitting here for ten plus hours figuring out how to describe everything.

Syntax

Ninirāte is an SOV language. Modifiers, such as relative clauses, possessors, and adverbs, are generally put before what the modify. Locatives generally come first in the sentence, except when the locative word acts as a converb.

Tsūngwīl, zur maten zhwal latekwin aripan nganyūts matilūx = morning-LOC 1p eye-ACC use-CONV be.green forest-ACC still see-ABL = In the morning, we can still see the green forest with our eyes

Nouns

Nouns have two genders: animate and inanimate. Pretty much only demonstrative pronouns change depending on the gender of a noun. Nouns inflect in a few ways, primarily case, tense (yes, tense on nouns), and possession. The cases are:

Accusative -an (only on animate nouns)

Ergative -s (only on inanimate nouns)

Genetive -k

Dative -tun

Locative -l

Locative-genetive -luk

Tense includes future -ngwi and past -zo. The tenses imply meanings like "what will be x" and "what used to be x". For example, the past version of "lak" (fish) is "lakizo" (dead fish).

Possessive prefixes are:

1s z(a)-

2s t(a)-

3s animate m(a)-

3s inanimate o-

1p zur(a)-

2p tut(a)-

3p animate yo-

3p inanimate iw(a)-

Possessive prefixes are used in cases of inalienable possession, whereas the genetive case is used in cases of alienable possession.

To express the meaning of "to be", the copula is used as a suffix on the second noun.

Ninirāte Ninir okonawāyrāro = Ninirāte Ninir 3S.INANIM.POSS-language-COP = Ninirāte is the language of Ninir

Verbs

Verbs don't inflect for person, but they have a number of inflections for tense, aspect, and mood, and can also be used as converbs. The unmarked form (usually ending with -r, -k or -n) is present tense, the ending is switched out for -me in past tense and -ven in future tense. The ending can be switched out for the copula to imply gnomic aspect. The last non-converbal suffixes added directly to the stem are the reflexive -apar, the passive -matir, and the desiderative -lans. Negation is done with the preverbal particle "hla".

If the ending is removed entirely, a verbal noun is created, to which case suffixes (including the now archaic instrumentative suffix -ts and the noun-tense suffixes that used to be locative case suffixes) can be added to create various converbs. Compare:

Za matil, yawār = I see, and I understand

Za mātun, yawār = I understand for the purpose of seeing

Za māts, yawār = While I see, I understand

Za matizo, yawār = Because I see, I understand

Za matingwi, yawār = Until I see, I understand

The converb suffix -l (-u is added at the end when another suffix follows) is used as the base for all hitherto unmentioned TAM conjugations. These are:

Experiential past -kwin

Immediate future -shuns

Continuous -zak

Causative -war

Perfect -zhon

Abilitative -ūx

Optative -siven

And a bunch of combinations of those. Also btw adjectives don't exist, stative verbs are used instead.

Writing

Hloles

Ninirāte uses the native Niniran writing system, an abugida derived from the old Niniran logography. It still has logographs for some common grammatical functions, such as cases and aspects. These are the consonants (the unlisted consonats are written as digraphs or, in the case of r, as z):

The grammatical letters are:

Vowels are written as diacritics to the left of the consonants. They are written as such:

The old logography is still used in super formal situations (mostly by religious and magical organisations). A full text (the first paragraph of this post) would look something like this (the writing direction is top to bottom, then left to right):

So that was it for this introduction! Thank you for reading!

Singūl, shun ihlolwa hloshuns. Ta nawanyawāzo zaloro!

To deny Godhood pt2

Part 1 here

———

Shamat: *holding his head, in the silence of the temple the sound of the doom drum in his mind is almost deafening* I- it- won’t- stop-

Nerevar: *takes hold of him sliding his hands around his waist* shhh, it will stop in just a moment… You’ll finally remember everything… *leads him through the temple and into the chamber of the tribunal, then through the doors of the 6th house where several priests stand waiting* at long last the house unmourned will be remembered and celebrated again. Voryn Dagoth will be reborn anew, and the power that corrupted him will be ripped from his soul and returned to the heart of lorkhan.

High priest: are you certain this is the one he’s chosen to walk as him?

Nerevar: It is him… I’d recognise Voryn anywhere…

High priest: very well. *raises his hands making the other priests approach Shamat*

Shamat: *whimpers as his hands are pulled from his face and the robes are stripped from his body leaving him exposed for all to see* n-no- stop I- let- go- let me- out-

Nerevar: we don’t have much time left, hurry and restrain him.

Shamat: what- *suddenly is lifted onto a stone slab, his wrists ankles and neck strapped down with enchanted irons as the priests begin the ritual, speaking the chants of creation in a tongue he can’t understand, dwemeric, and the doom drum beating louder in his head as another voice fills his mind trying to replace him with itself* n-no I’m not- you- I’m not d-dagoth Ur *starts to struggle against his restraints as the high priest steps forward holding a golden mask with a third eye, chanting in unison with his followers as they surround him* Ur Dagoth, step forward from your slumber and walk now again the waking dreams. Claim your reincarnation, claim your place once more among the living, and be reborn beside the moon and star.

Shamat: *tears pouring down his face as the birthmark on his forehead begins to split open like a pair of eyelids* N-no- no- no this- this is my body- my face- I’m not him- I’m not hi- *screams and arches his back in pain as a third eyeball appears in the open scar, forming a new eye as the priest places the mask on him*

High priest: *raises his hands as his followers chant louder* Awaken false dreamer! Bring forth the power you hold!!!

Shamat: *wrists and ankles bleeding as he continues to squirm in pain and fear, feeling the nightmares he’d experienced his whole life consuming him all at once, and the voice growing louder in his mind*

“Give in, accept the truth of who you are and Let me walk as you and you as I… Let us be whole again”

Shamat: *feeling for just a moment that he wants to give up, to slip away and let go of the life he’d made as the dragonborn. Only to remember his friends, the adventures they had together and the bonds they’d formed in battle and fun. His children, and the joy they’d brought to his life, and the pain of not being there to witness them growing up. Then Kaidan, his beloved, how hed hold him so tenderly, how he’d reassure him over the smallest of things, how he smiled at him on their wedding day, and how he made him feel genuine love for the first time… And how he’d miss all of them dearly* NO!!! *opens his eyes to see a red energy radiating from his body, like something was being sucked out of him, only for it to halt in place as he regains control over himself and absorbs it back into his being*

Nerevar: What are you doing?!

High Priest: He?! He’s fighting back somehow?! It was almost complete!! He was seconds from claiming his place as Ur dagoth!

Shamat: I am not Dagoth Ur. I am not Voryn Dagoth I am not the Sharmat. *shakes the mask off his face and glares up at the priest with three, red eyes as he summons his dragon aspect* I am Shamat Dovahkiin. I am the Dragonborn. MUL-QUAH-DIIV!!!

*a blood bath and several guards subduing him later*

Shamat: *in the chamber the temple had prepared for him to live in and stay comfortably as Voryn Dagoth, now tied to one of the bed posts, forced to stand with his back facing the Mer behind him* …

Nerevar: *slowly tracing a whip down the dunmers spine* over 100 seriously injured. And all trained priests of the tribunal, dead. All in your grand tantrum to cling to a false identity… As head of house indoril I cannot allow this to go unpunished… Do you have any remorse, Voryn?…

Shamat: My name. Is not. Voryn…

Nerevar: *eye twitching in irritation* So be it. *raises the whip*

The Importance of Preventive Health: A Comprehensive Guide to Thyrocare Executive Checkup

The Importance of Preventive Health: A Comprehensive Guide to Thyrocare Executive Checkup

In today’s fast-paced world, health often takes a backseat to our busy schedules and responsibilities. We often ignore small signs and symptoms, dismissing them as mere inconveniences. However, our health is the foundation upon which everything else is built, and regular checkups are essential to maintaining this foundation. One of the best ways to ensure that your body is functioning optimally is through a comprehensive health checkup, such as the Thyrocare Executive Checkup.

 Understanding the Need for Regular Health Checkups

Regular health checkups are vital for early detection of diseases, monitoring of existing health conditions, and overall wellness. Many health issues start with mild symptoms that can go unnoticed. Over time, these can develop into more severe conditions if left unchecked. This is where preventive health checkups come in—they help detect potential health problems before they become serious, allowing for timely intervention and treatment.

Preventive health checkups are particularly important for individuals who have a hectic lifestyle, are over the age of 30, or have a family history of chronic diseases such as diabetes, hypertension, or heart disease. By identifying risk factors early, you can take steps to mitigate them and maintain your health.

 What is the Thyrocare Executive Checkup?

The Thyrocare Executive Checkup is a comprehensive health package designed to assess your overall health status. This package includes a wide range of tests that cover various aspects of your health, from vital organ functions to common health indicators. The aim is to provide a holistic view of your health, enabling you to take control of your well-being.

 Tests Included in the Thyrocare Executive Checkup

The Thyrocare Executive Checkup typically includes the following tests:

1. Complete Blood Count (CBC): This test provides valuable information about your blood cells, helping detect conditions like anemia, infections, and other disorders.

2. Lipid Profile: This set of tests measures the levels of cholesterol and triglycerides in your blood, providing insights into your risk for heart disease.

How to spend a day in Kathmandu?

Situated at the heart of Nepal, Kathmandu beckons travelers with its rich tapestry of culture, history, and bustling city life. Whether you’re passing through or seeking a rejuvenating day out, Kathmandu seamlessly blends old-world charm with modern convenience. Drawing from personal experience, here’s how to make the most of a day in this captivating city.

Morning: Exploring Durbar Square

Begin your day early to savor the tranquility of Durbar Square before the crowds arrive. This UNESCO World Heritage site is a labyrinth of ancient temples, palaces, and courtyards, each telling stories of Nepal’s illustrious past. As you wander through this historic square, marvel at the intricate wood carvings adorning the temples dedicated to Hindu deities, a testament to the country’s architectural prowess and spiritual heritage.

The heart of Durbar Square is the Hanuman Dhoka Palace, the historic seat of Nepalese royalty. Spend some time exploring the palace complex, which includes the Nasal Chowk courtyard, the Mul Chowk temple, and the King Tribhuwan Memorial Museum. Each structure within the complex offers a glimpse into the royal history and traditions of Nepal.

Don’t miss the Kumari House, where the Living Goddess Kumari occasionally blesses visitors from her intricately carved wooden window. The Kumari, a young girl chosen through an ancient selection process, is believed to be the incarnation of the Hindu goddess Taleju. Observing the reverence with which locals and visitors alike approach the Kumari’s residence is a profound experience, reflecting the deep-rooted spiritual beliefs of the Nepalese people.

Midday: Dive into Local Cuisine

After a morning of exploration, indulge in authentic Nepali cuisine at a nearby eatery. Treat yourself to momos, delicious dumplings served with a spicy dipping sauce and a choice of fillings, whether meat or vegetarian. These bite-sized delights are perfect for a light lunch and are a staple in Nepali cuisine, loved by locals and visitors alike. For a heartier option, sample dal bhat, Nepal’s traditional meal comprising rice, lentil soup, and assorted side dishes, reflecting the country’s diverse culinary traditions. Dal bhat is not just a meal but an experience, often accompanied by a variety of pickles, curried vegetables, and sometimes even meat or fish. The flavors are a harmonious blend of spices that provide a satisfying and nourishing meal, ensuring you have plenty of energy for the rest of your day’s adventures. Many local eateries also offer freshly brewed chiya, a spiced tea that perfectly complements the meal and provides a comforting end to your dining experience.

Afternoon: Stroll through Thamel

Wander through Thamel, Kathmandu’s vibrant shopping district, after your meal. Lose yourself in a maze of narrow lanes lined with colorful shops offering everything from traditional textiles and handicrafts to trekking gear and souvenirs. Bargain hunters will delight in exploring the bustling market stalls, each offering a unique glimpse into Nepal’s artisanal craftsmanship and local commerce.

Late Afternoon: Visit Swayambhunath Stupa

As the afternoon unfolds, make your way to Swayambhunath Stupa, affectionately known as the Monkey Temple. Perched atop a hill west of Kathmandu, this ancient stupa offers panoramic views of the city below. Ascend the steep steps adorned with playful monkeys — keep an eye on your belongings — and immerse yourself in the serene ambiance of this sacred site.

Evening: Sunset and Reflection

Cap off your day in Kathmandu by witnessing the sunset from Swayambhunath Stupa. As the sky transforms into hues of orange and pink, take a moment to reflect on the day’s adventures and soak in the peaceful atmosphere. The gentle breeze carries with it the distant echoes of temple bells and the faint scent of incense, adding to the tranquil ambiance. Consider ending your day with a cup of authentic Nepali tea or coffee at a local cafe, where you can watch the city come alive with twinkling lights as night falls. The bustling streets below gradually quiet down, creating a serene contrast against the backdrop of Kathmandu’s ancient temples and modern architecture. Enjoy the cool evening air and perhaps engage in a conversation with fellow travelers, sharing stories and recommendations for further exploration in Nepal’s vibrant capital.

Final Thoughts

alduin & alucard : battle .

Alucard wasn’t used to surprises. Due to his enhanced abilities and a thick roster of powerful connections, high and low, he took pride in the fact that he was rarely made the fool. However, he had to concede that being forcibly ripped from his daily routine and transported into this strange, unfamiliar landscape without a moment’s notice hadn’t been within his realm of prediction.

Upon setting foot on the platform, he’s met by a long pathway, littered with wizened statues and protruding, hollow bones. The skyline above him made an even more impressive sight: a dazzling mix of greens and golds, speckled by an endless sea of stars; a drastic change from the smog and drab grey of English scenery. He took an unnecessary breath, just to see if it made any difference. The air seared with something electric, sizzling in his redundant lungs in a way that reminded him of being burned by fire.

He leapt off in a single leap, barely using any effort to hurtle himself forward, past the steps into a second opening. He observed a modest, sandy outcropping, with flowers and tall grass dotted about. Despite the blooming fauna, the arena was dead silent, completely devoid of the chirp of woodland creatures that would be expected here. While Alucard kept his ears pricked up for any sound, there appeared to be no life here at all. The unnatural energy of the location awoke a baser instinct within him, signalling that danger awaited him here.

Not a moment later, an imperceptible tremor shivered through the ground. His hunch was correct: there’d been something ominous lurking among the shadows, hidden within the ethereal beauty of the environment. Even so, that didn’t alarm him. While he would rather maintain the peace, he was a dhampir - fighting and violence were practically ingrained in his bones. This was familiar territory. If fighting was all that was required of him, he’d begrudgingly comply.

A sonorous howl sounded in the distance: “Ven Mul Riik!”

The cry seemed to have summoned a peculiar fog. Mist gathered around Alucard at an alarming speed, obscuring his vision. If he were any ordinary man, it would have shielded his opponent from view entirely. However, his enhanced vision allowed him to spot a mass hurtling towards him in a blur of speed. Without even thinking about it, he side-stepped that preliminary attack with ease.

As the black mass grew close, Alucard was able to discern who his attacker was. The brief sight of wings and scales was enough to identify him as a dragon. He’s no stranger to dragons - has fought and kept them as familiars in equal measure. From what he knows of the species, they aren’t particularly aggressive. If he had a choice, he would not choose to fight; long-lived creatures such as dragons deserved the utmost respect. However, he would do what was necessary, even slay the said dragon if needed, in order to protect himself.

The beast was huge, one of the largest he’d ever seen. The grit and growth over his obsidian scales and large bodice were enough to fascinate Alucard. However, with the knowledge that the beast was in a combative mode and completely focused on attacking him, Alucard made sure to keep his guard up.

Alduin was clearly enraged that he’d missed the target. He thrashed in the air in sharp jerks, twitching with fury, before opening his mouth to send a blast of fire. Alucard bounded away from the blast, but sorely felt the heat of the blast follow suit. While he ran, the trail of burning behind him was accompanied by the earthy, bitter smell of wood and bone. 

Alucard looked up through the mist and rising smoke to survey the creature. Despite Alduin’s first impression, Alucard was unimpressed by the slew of uninventive attacks. He grew more confident that he wouldn’t be outmatched easily, what with his multitude of souls and supernatural buffs. It didn’t matter if his opponent was multiple times his size, or that he was revered as an ancient species. Alucard would make his show of strength toward the dragon in an effort to make it back off, and if that plan didn’t work, he would defeat Alduin soundly.

The beast sent another raze of fire directly at Alucard. Having tested the strength of Alduin’s fire, Alucard didn’t even bother to move. The fire blew past him in a hot wave, causing his flesh to sizzle. He didn’t care, as the pain and damage were only momentary. As soon as the attack ceased, his skin knitted together anew.

“Your attacks are completely useless against me,” Alucard said, matter of factly. He wasn’t intending to boast, just stating the facts. “I ask that you cease this foolishness now.”

It was unclear whether the beast understood Alucard’s command, but it did not like the tone of Alucard’s voice. Instead of calming him down like Alucard intended, his indifference towards the attacks seemed to offend Alduin. The dragon bared his teeth at Alucard and sent waves of fire his way, redoubling his efforts to harm him.

The beast uttered a series of strange sounds again, breaking into an almighty roar, “Iiz Slen Nus!”

Instantaneously, Alucard felt his body become fixed to the spot. A glance down showed that he was encased in a cold prison of ice and rooted into the ground. He was able to break free from a measly prison like this in a single blow, but he was rather curious to see what trump card the dragon thought he was holding over him. Then, a flash appeared in the sky, and Alucard watched as meteor rocks fell towards the earth in lines of amber, headed straight towards him.

Alucard raised his brows at the surprise attack, slight laughter escaping his lips, “weather manipulation? How interesting. I’ve never been hit by meteors before.”

Alucard kept his gaze on the rocks as they fell. All the while, he remained infuriatingly calm, almost contemplative, as the meteors met their mark, collapsing on top of him in deafening booms. A moment of stillness fell after the rush of impact, all of Sovngarde silent.

Alduin waited with bated breath, eyes scouring the land to pick up any signs of life. After two seconds of dead silence, Alduin let out a majestic roar, as if to celebrate his victory.

The meteors left a huge mess in their wake. Dust and fire added to the mess of the landscape, and the resulting shockwave from the collisions ripped trees and plants clean out of the ground, roots and all. The crude stonehenge that once decorated the adjacent garden was demolished entirely - what remained was little more than dust and sand - any structures were gone without a trace.

Certainly, the force of the meteors killed Alucard as well, obliterating his body and crushing him to a pulp. However, as he faded from consciousness, he departed from life with little else but a faint smile on his face. He knew too well that death would only be temporary - dhampirs like him were immortal, after all.

It barely took any time before Alucard’s body started to revive. Splattered blood and gore gathered back towards the centre mass of his body, re-shaping his humanoid form. As his body healed, his damaged features were overtaken by a roiling mass of black, leaving only the glint of his eyes, teeth and hair. He looked every bit the monster he was.

Alucard shook his head, as if disappointed by the dragon’s premature celebration, “don’t let down your guard now. You’d need much more than that to take me out.”

Alduin narrowed his eyes, almost as if to contemplate the curious nature of Alucard’s being. Upon closer inspection, Alucard’s aura was similar to his, what with so many unfortunate souls stockpiled into a single body. 

It was evident that Alucard had the upper hand right now, but Alduin could sense that the tides of fate were about to swing in his favour. While Alucard’s death had only been temporary, Alduin’s soul fog was still able to make use of it as a power source. Alduin felt the life force coursing through his body after the absorption, raw energy pulsing through his veins. 

Alduin snuffled at the discovery, a curious sound between smugness and delight. He circled the air for a few moments as he tried to figure out how to use this new information to his advantage.

Meanwhile, Alucard grew foolishly overconfident seeing Alduin circle up above, as if the latter was unsure of how to launch the next attack. Too impatient to wait for Alduin’s next move, Alucard resolved to go on the offensive, this time around.

“How about this, dragon - I’ll fight you on even terms, my fire against yours!”

With a twirl of his coat, Alucard sent a dark wave of fireballs towards the dragon, large nuke-like orbs that exploded in a deadly shower, much like Alduin’s meteors. The dragon allowed the potent attack to glance off his hide in an unimpressed snort. He seemed to be fire repellent, for the flames disappeared as soon as they made contact, as if snuffed out by the material of its scales.

Alucard shrugged. No matter; it was only natural for a dragon to have fire resistant abilities. What surprised Alucard was that he was having fun with it, showing off his powers and testing the dragon’s limits in return. While he did not find pleasure in taking lives, he could admit that fighting like this was rather enjoyable.

Assuming that he had full knowledge of the dragon’s powers, Alucard had every intention of putting a swift end to the fight. He leapt up into the air, materialising his lance to slash at Alduin without further warning. Alduin hissed, blood welling at the scratch, and immediately batted the man out of the sky with a hard thwack, sending Alucard crashing through trees and foliage.

Alduin knew he had to keep a wide berth between him and the dhampir. Allowing Alucard too close would be a huge risk right now. 

To keep Alucard preoccupied, Alduin summoned dark figures that arose out of the shadows to attack Alucard as he was down. While Alucard was skilled, the sheer number meant that he had to back off momentarily. Performing several backflips, Alucard gained some distance from the attackers, before rushing back into the fray and killing them all with his lance and short sword, one weapon grasped in each bloody hand.

All the while, Alduin made sure to be sly about it. He froze Alucard with sheets of ice, rendering him immobile, and had his soul fog ensnare soul after soul until he was almost bursting with power. With a litany of complex enchantments, Alduin summoned waves of his minions to rise within the fog and attack Alucard, pushing him back and keeping him sufficiently distracted from Alduin’s masterplan.

Contrarily, Alucard grew increasingly complacent and unhurried with his attacks. From his perspective, the dragon had done little else but to entrap him and attack him with non-fatal blows.

The sudden change in Alduin’s fighting style confused Alucard greatly. The dragon hadn’t seemed too disappointed in Alduin’s revival and kept overwhelming him with a sequence of attacks, making sure to kill Alucard and have him give up one of his souls every so often. 

After some thought, Alucard figured the dragon was not sure what to make of his revivals, and merely thought that killing him over and over again would seal the deal. Too bad that was not the case - the dragon would run out of stamina much quicker than he could defeat all of Alucard’s reserves.

Unbeknownst to Alucard, this fell right into Alduin’s plan. Distracted by the attacks, Alucard didn’t notice Alduin’s soul fog congregating at each site of his deaths, pulsing as it absorbed the remnant life force. 

“Killing me won’t do you any good, dragon.” Alucard said, almost pitying the creature for trying to achieve the impossible. 

Alucard leapt up from the ground, teleporting with a dash of his sword to close the distance between them and meeting the dragon at close-quarters. He had various weapons at his disposal, but preferred using his family heirlooms as his default weapons: a sword and lance, in each hand, readied for attack. Now that the dragon was within arms reach, Alduin brought his sword down in a wide arc, intending on cleaving the unyielding dragonscales open with a forceful blow.

However, he wasn’t met with the easy battle as expected. Quick as a flash, almost too fast for Alucard to keep track of, the dragon turned in a graceful arc, whiplashing his tail and sending Alucard careening out of the sky. Without any warning, Alucard lost his balance and tumbled onto the ground heavily, leaving a large, steaming crater in his wake as his hardened body dug into the ground.

The dragon sensed an opening and immediately swooped down to puncture Alucard’s torso, snapping it clean open with a sharp motion of its jaw. Alduin kept up the offence: biting, clawing and scratching at Alucard, barely a second between his attacks in order to prevent Alucard from reviving.

Alucard struggled to see through the bloodbath. All too late, he realised that with each of his deaths, the mystery fog pulsed with power, as if absorbing his power through the lost lives. He glared up at the dragon, a scowl forming on his immaculate features, “you sneaky creature.”

"Meyye! Tahrodiis aanne! Him hinde pah liiv! Zu'u hin daan!" The dragon roared.

Alucard didn’t speak the language, but even through the language barrier, it was clear to him that Alduin was gloating, taking him for a fool.

And indeed, a fool he’d been. Alucard cursed under his breath. He’s not sure what trick Alduin used, but it was clear that he’d been secretly powering up this entire time. The longer they’d battled, the stronger Alduin became. While Alucard had grown sloppy and bored with his attacks, Alduin waited for the right moment to strike. Alucard’s brows furrowed - the dragon was a lot more tactical than he’d given him credit for. Maybe they were more similar in nature than he thought.

With some difficulty, he concentrated just enough between the critical attacks to transform his body. He burst into a cloud of dark green, escaping as poisonous mist between the dragon’s claws.

Alduin reacted quickly, immediately sending a roar of fire and burning the gas up, reverting Alucard into his usual form. With a flick of his Twilight Cloak, Alucard shielded himself from a second attack with barely a second to lose. Still unused to Alduin’s spike in speed, Alucard used his sword to dash away from Alduin’s reach, movements still sluggish as his limbs took their sweet time to rejuvenate.

"Hin sille fen nahkip bahloki!" The dragon roared triumphantly, sensing weakness in Alucard’s haggard form. He didn’t give Alucard any time to find his bearings before dive-bombing in a series of attacks again.

This time, Alucard knew better than to simply dodge the dragon’s offence; their speeds had levelled out and a battle of attrition would not do him any good - he’d likely lose. He’d been lucky enough that his transformation abilities caught Alduin unaware the first time. However, if Alduin got used to his powers, Alucard would lose the small edge he still had in the fight.

Instead, Alucard searched for ways to take the terrain to his advantage, leaping out of the mysterious fog that was stealing his life energy. He used his dashes to teleport into the shadows, losing the dragon’s attention momentarily. It wasn’t just to hide, but to buy time for Alucard’s next plan. With all of the dead minions strewn about the arena, he could employ Alduin’s strategy as well. Muttering a spell, he ripped and absorbed the souls of the beings around him. His body glowed as the powers transferred into him. While it was not as much as would like, he hoped it was enough to tip the scales in his favour.

As the dragon soared about in search of him, Alucard knew that he only had one chance to carry out this attack. Carefully, he aimed the angle just right to get a good drop on Alduin, using his vampiric wings to dash right behind the dragon. As soon as he was positioned, he summoned his weapons and let gravity do the work for him. Timing his swing as he fell, he slashed his weapons straight down, landing a powerful, piercing blow on the dragon.

Alduin howled, twisting just out of the way at the last second to block the vicious attacks with his claws. He snapped at him with a malicious bite of his jaws, taking a chunk out of Alucard’s shoulder, severing his muscle and making him lose grip on the blade. With some concentration, Alucard kicked the blade up with his foot, healing his arm just enough to find the strength to catch it on the up-twirl. 

Not wanting to let go of his advantage, Alucard dashed upward once more, turning transparent and sinking straight through the dragon’s body to end up behind the dragon again. Detaching his cloak, he used it to encircle the dragon into a makeshift prison, pressing closer and closer.

However, before Alucard could take advantage of the position, Alduin shot him off his back with a strong gust of fire.

Alduin must have realised how Alucard gained his immortality, because he didn’t send out any more minions for Alucard to replenish his health with. He merely circled the arena, waiting for Alucard’s next move.

Alucard steadied himself - he had to fight carefully from here on out. Though he had many more lives to spare, it would be unwise to allow a repeat of what happened. Being held against the dirt floor, losing life after life… Alucard shuddered at the memory, an unpleasant twist on his lips. 

“We’re alike,” Alucard told the dragon, though he wasn’t sure if he’d understand, “but, I believe I’m still the stronger, out of the two of us.” He says firmly.

Filled with resolve, Alucard flew up into the sky, locking his arms firmly around the dragon’s neck. Like a beast tamer, he wrested the dragon into submission. No matter how Alduin looped and thrashed, Alucard held fast to his scaly neck, where none of his powerful attacks could reach. Alucard’s hands burned from the heat emanating from the dragon’s throat, but he kept steady, holding on and building up the necessary power to put an end to the long, bloody fight.

Alduin tried his hardest to cast Alucard back to the ground, flying so high it seemed like they were touching the constellations up above. Alucard’s face and hands grew numb and painful with frostbite. Minions crawled up and down Alduin’s spine, trying to land a hit on Alucard and send him spiralling back down to earth.

However, Alucard stubbornly held on, biding time and waiting for the golden opportunity to concentrate his powers and strike true. Finally, in a moment when Alduin’s attacks lapsed, Alucard used the spike of his lance to strike directly down through the crown of Alduin’s head, piercing through the dragon’s skull and jaw. 

Alduin shrieked in a flurry of pain and panic. Gradually, he started circling down towards the ground, flailing as he spurted blood from his wound. Despite the strike directly through his head, the dragon’s constitution was remarkable, and it took a few dozen blows to truly kill him. Alucard sped up, summoning his sword in his other hand, and striking Alduin again and again. The stabs blinded Alduin and ripped his jaw apart, making it so that he was unable to attack or chant any more spells.

As they fell back down onto the arena, Alucard took until the last second before jumping off the dragon’s back and dashing a safe distance away. Alduin struggled to pick himself up but was unable to do so with the many puncture wounds across his body. Slowly, a pool of blood drained on the ground, turning black as it cooled. The dragon’s thrashes grew weaker until he only twitched occasionally, all the while staring at Alucard with his one workable eye.

“Zu’u unslaad… Zu’u nis oblaan…” Alduin groaned, before stilling. His eyes grew misty as he faded into another realm.

Alucard straightened up after watching the life fade out of the beast’s eyes, grimly satisfied. He won that battle by the skin of his teeth. Over-confident in his own powers, Alucard had taken the dragon lightly and let things get a little too close for comfort. Still, he’d come out the other side breathing, as expected.

“Not bad,” He said after regarding Alduin’s silent form for a moment. His lips curved into a serene smile, “I’m surprised that you almost got the drop on me.”

With a flick of his wrist, he dispelled his weaponry. With the dragon defeated, Sovngarde was dead silent, hauntingly so in the wake of this outcome. 

“I’m sorry that it ended this way - I only did what I had to.” He said solemnly.

Without another backward glance, Alucard walked back up the steps and through the portal. Save for the inert form and the utter destruction of the landscape, it was as if he was never there.
