Some maps of Syana
1: Anthropological regions This map shows the various "anthropological regions" of Syana. These differ from the geographic divisions of Syana, named "cultural regions" due to their use as the standard cultural way of dividing up Syana. Anthropological regions define areas of the nation that have unique cultures, due to their urbanisation, religion, language/slang or various other factors.

2: The Ydaama Rail Network This is the network of high-speed rail that runs across Syana. The network is funded by the government and run by the Ydaama company, who are owned in their entirety by the national board of transport. High-speed rail connects all 12 cities in Syana as well as 26 significant large towns that serve as population hubs within their local area.

Syan was born after 6PM last rotation, meaning unfortunately he won't be aging up into a toddler until Year 10.
We won't get to see his personality for a while, but at least Zeek and Corinne get to enjoy the baby stage a little longer...

The Fairest of All Stars Should Be Your Next Read: a presentation by Di, the author
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
The Fairest of All Stars is my most recent project! A sapphic romance, pirates, sirens--god, what else can someone ask for?
Stars is a fun, short novel. It's currently only being posted on Patreon, but you'll be able to read it for free soon(ish). This isn't an ad for my Patreon, I promise. It's just my system.
If you're not super into fantasy but like some elements from the genre--this is good for you. There's no big magic systems or other worlds, but there is lore behind the sirens.
You'll be able to read it for free in 2024: Edit: You can now begin reading TFOAS for free at these links!
On Patreon (join for free)
On AO3
Right here on Tumblr!
It'll be a good time.
Transcript of presentation under cut:
What's it about?
Are you in the mood for some lesbian pirate/siren romance? Of course you are! When are you not?
So, listen, we have Andy. Everyone’s favorite gremlin. She’s the captain of a pirate ship, recovering from not so great tropical fever that wiped out a good chunk of her crew.
One night, her ship comes across a siren tangled in fishing net, not doing so hot. Andy takes her aboard and while the siren recovers, learns a lot about her.
But uh-oh Andy is wanted by a Navy Captain, and he manages to find her ship after years of hunting.
--
Okay tell me about Andy and Syan
Andy:
Never meant to be pirate captain but here she is. Living the dream (not really).
Andy trusts very few people. Despite being brilliant, a brutal fighter and cutthroat at sea, she has a hard time running her crew.
Syan:
The runt of the litter. Not as strong as the rest of her choir, she got left behind during an encounter with fishermen.
She’s curious but prone to bad moods. She’s a loner looking for a place to belong.
--
More about them
Andy panicked years ago while cornered by Captain Bettridge and stabbed him through the hand. She’s been hoping to get her knife back ever since. Bettridge really wants her dead, though, so she has to be careful.
Syan and Andy would be pretty badass in normal circumstances but they’re poor little meow meows in this story
There’s another cool guy. His name is Pinkey. He’s the ship’s gunner. You guys will like him, I promise. He’s Syan’s bff.
Syan and Andy are immediately attracted to each other. Andy is a monster-fucker and Syan is into messy women who are hoarders and misplace everything under piles of junk.
--
Okay but tell me more about the story
Set in the Golden Age of Piracy, Andy and her crew come face to face with danger--mythical and imperialistic. There’ll be sword fighting and gun-wielding and all sorts of adventure.
It’s not really found-family, either, it’s more of like found tolerance.
Is this well-researched? No. Not really. But it’s fantasy, and it’s fun. We can make some excuses here and there.
--
*whispers* is there lesbian sex?
yes of course there’s lesbian sex you think Andy is going to pass up on that opportunity?
--
Can I read this anywhere?
Right now, the only place to read bi-weekly updates is my Patreon--but I promise this isn’t an ad for my Patreon.
I’ll be posting it for free once a substantial amount is up on Patreon. You’ll be able to find it on AO3, Tumblr, and you’ll be able to see it for free on Patreon once I made it public.
Keep your eye out for it! btw, you can also join my Patreon for free and get notifications for when the story goes public.

yo do you have a tag for sybill meta at all im thinking about her now
hiiii first of all i'm so honoured that you've come to me for this, sybill is one of my most precious children!!! i mainly just tag her under #sybill which i'll put below but also this is my carefully curated pinterest board for her which i feel like has more of the vibes bc sometimes i get scared about sharing her w the world on here lmao... i need to get more serious about this and start sybill-posting more frequently but, for now, here is a little general overview
my main vision of her is as a miserable woman who's drowning herself in guilt and isolating herself from everyone and clinging desperately onto reality as the line between it and the world that exists inside her head blurs and blends and draws her in and pulls her apart...... i'm unfortunately completely incapable of ever making her happy and instead like to torture her incessantly!! yippee!!
i tend to primarily ship her w lily (my most special babies forever and ever) but i've been known to dabble in a bit of sybarty (this is only when they're the only ones left in the world lol) and jen and i also have a cunty ritasybill au which actually! does end happily... maybe the exception that proves the rule in terms of how miserable my sybill aus all tend to be ahfjhajfkgk
OH also nearly forgot i made this post talking about her one time and i think i still stand behind everything i said!!

Our Work is Everywhere by Syan Rose
goodreads
Tumblr media
Over the past ten years, we have witnessed the rise of queer and trans communities that have defied and challenged those who have historically opposed them. Through bold, symbolic imagery and surrealist, overlapping landscapes, queer illustrator and curator Syan Rose shines a light on the faces and voices of these diverse, amorphous, messy, real and imagined queer and trans communities.
In their own words, queer and trans organizers, artists, healers, comrades, and leaders speak honestly and authentically about their own experiences with power, love, pain, and magic to create a textured and nuanced portrait of queer and trans realities in America. The many themes include Black femme mental health, Pacific Islander authorship, fat queer performance art, disability and healthcare practice, sex worker activism, and much more. Accompanying the narratives are Rose's startling and sinuous images that brings these leaders' words to visual life.
Mod opinion: I hadn't heard of this book before, but it sounds really interesting!

Projects/books I'm working on right now:
The Syan Language: advanced edition.
This is the second textbook about Syan as a language, intended as a learning resource for people who want to learn Syan at a level beyond conversational.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
2. Akaraso's Divine History
An in-universe English translation of an influential Raa-dyanist scripture written in the 80s, translated to retain the core themes and emotion central to the original Syan text.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
3. Academic paper
A few months ago I conducted a study into whether the close phonological-semantic relationship that exists in a constructed language (Syan in specific) is recognisable subconsciously to participants who have never encountered said conlang. I'm working on writing up an academic paper about the study and my analysis of the results.

A prince and his dragon. A dragon and his rider.
Fated. Destined.
Mates.
Closeup of their faces:
Tumblr media
An AU in which Tony is sent to kill a dragon to prove he's fit to be the next king. Except that he doesn't want to. After a failed attempt to do his duty, he instead befriends the dragon, going by Steve in his common tongue. And soon after, they find that their meeting was practically preordained.
A gift for my wife, Chaysin 💗

And with that, we wrap up a big year for the family.
What will the new addition mean for Corinne's career goals? How will Xora handle being a big sister? They're things we'll have to explore next year!
Time to move on to our last family of the rotation, the Inokes. They actually just moved into the trailer right opposite Zeek and Corinne's.

Writing Andy and Syan is like
Syan thinks of herself as Andy's wife. She does not show affection under ordinary circumstances. But they are married in her mind. That's her wife.
Andy doesn't really understand giving or receiving love but it's ingrained her. It's still an instinct she has. She does not know Syan thinks they're married.
