Elara from Luminaera

In the city of Luminaera, where the future kissed past in a cascade of neon lights and holographic displays, a young girl named Elara stood still amidst the bustling crowd. She was an enigma, her eyes hiding a silent depth as she pulled the hoodie tighter around her face, letting the shadow embrace her delicate features. The soft hum of hovercars and the murmur of AI assistants paired with human chatter to create the city's unique symphony.

She was a wanderer between the layers of Luminaera, capturing the heartbeats of the cityscape on her augmented reality graffiti—vivid murals that breathed life into the grey alleys and whispered forgotten stories to those who would listen. Today, however, her mission was different. Elara had uncovered a secret, one that glimmered under the surface of the city's polished veneer.

With a purpose in her step, she weaved through the throngs of people, her presence hardly noticed, a ghost flitting across the physical plane towards the old harbor. There, between the gleaming spires and rusting docks, she found it—a door, untouched by time, its existence virtually unknown to the inhabitants of the modern city shimmering above.

As Elara pressed her palm against the cold metal, it glowed to life, recognizing the touch of an artist, the bearer of untold narratives. The door clicked open, revealing an inner sanctuary where nature intertwined with remnants of the past. It was an archive of dreams, each plant, stone, and droplet of water a memory coded within the DNA of the city, guarded by the legacy of those who trod these grounds before her.

She watched, heart swelling with inspiration, as the projections of Luminaera's founders appeared, narrating lost tales and inviting her to add her own. Elara pulled out her sketchpad and began to draw, her lines fuelled by the symphony of stories, each stroke another note in the endless melody of the city.

And as night fell, she emerged from the sanctuary, her soul alight with new art soon to grace the walls of Luminaera. For in the city where yesterday and tomorrow danced in unbroken circles, Elara was the bridge—her visions the color that ensured the past and future would always meet, under the watchful gaze of the stars.

My co-author and I worked with @oblivionsdream to have her do up artwork of our characters from Sanctuary of the Lost and they are SO beautiful.

When I say Christis and I have lived with these characters rent free in our heads for probably close to a decade, I'm not joking. So to put pen to paper, and then to see an artist bring them to life in this way, means so much to both of us. And they truly did come out just how we imagined them!

Sometimes, love finds you anyway. Burned by her first love, Mab has spent the last several years content with her brother, their club, and her Miami beach front property. The last thing she wants, or needs, is for the arrow cast by Erotes—god of love—to rear its ugly head. But trouble disrupts Mab’s hard-earned peace in the form of a dead inanimi washed up on her private beach. Not wanting to disturb Ander and his newfound bliss, Mab calls the only person she can think of—Quintus Schields. Life for Quin used to be simple. Second in command to his brother Maximus, Quin has always been a hardworking and dedicated creature of few words. He wants nothing to do with the owners of Inferno or their drama. Especially with his new responsibilities as caregiver to an ignis youngling. So, when Mab Duchan asks for help, he has to decide if he wants to keep his world as is, or accept there might be more to life than he expected. As Miami’s criminal underground returns to sink its claws into them, Fate forces the four to face old demons, and question just what they’re willing to do for happiness.

"Welcome. I am the Guardian of Memoria Park. I was erected by those who came before you, and through the rust and the rain I still stand to this very day. The passage of time has turned those here to dust and rot. Some lived long lives full of earthly pleasures, others were cut short far too soon. Will you and your friends fall to the same fate?"

Apologies for the post drought, I've got a lot of things in the pipeline that I only wanna release once presentable, but for now I can at least show off this creature design I cooked up for my ANOMALY project; might be important! 👀

Garden Report & Frugal Living 24.04.12

Today we managed to get a bucket of sand from the beach before the weekend rains appear. Also planted in pots some old seeds, really crammed them in thickly because I am so late and not sure if they will even germ . Note to self: harvest dates are important especially if you have a tendency like me to over purchase/horde seeds/trade seeds. And make sure they are sealed well! I spilled a great deal of Peshawar poppies because inner glaceing bag was haphazard and another bag of some sort of bean was in open plastic (is that mold or inoculation?). I planted out the beans thickly in a glow box not wanting to take up space for about 75 bean plants. If they come up it will indeed be a pleasant surprise! and even more if the voracious creatures stay off! So here is what is planted:

Peshawar poppies

calendula

early cabbages (hope they won't bolt)

purple broccoli (hoping for cooler grow season so no bolt)

yellow mangels/beets

pole beans

spring onions

guava seed (saved seeds, idk but I am guessing they may be pineapple guava from fruit we receive every year)

giant prague celeriac (giant celery root)

white pickle cucumber

tiger toms (red paste toms with green stripes)

flat leaf parsely

basil (genovese/sweet style)

I have some black polish radish that is suppose to be sweeter than the spainish variety but those I need to direct sow.

The ants are still in grow box #2. I thought I had gotten them out last year but no such luck. I will need to find some terro boxlettes.

The purple asparagus has quickly sent up a spear. No sign of any others. I collected seeds off of it last year and I really should plant but I'm not sure I can commit to the slowness of it (about 8 weeks to germinate!).

There is so much I want to plant this year but I need a major clean and if I get settlement, there may be enough for roof but the tear off will generate a huge amount of waste and even with tarps down, many things will probably die due to impact and workers' boots so definitely can not do guerrilla gardening along the flower beds and shrubbery.

Currently foraging lilac blossoms. I dry them and place in jars for tea.

The quince is just loaded with blossoms! I have never seen this many flowers! We love quince so hoping for good pollination and much fruit. The red fleshed apple is starting to bloom as is the pears -- yes, the little asian pear may pull through! The raspberries are also starting to bloom. The pots I propagated last year need to find homes or be planted. I need to pull weeds from the white currant transplants. This is the year I need to transplant my little persimmons I grew from seed if they survived. They make a long tap root first so its essential to find a good spot -- no moving them around!!

Once again, too slow on the pruning! The birds are setting up housekeeping. The collared doves once again are trying to nest in the garden. I'm hoping that the neighbors will mellow out. They are becoming more aware of the songbirds that frequent my thicket (there really is a method to my madness... for some things).

Frugal tip: do you knit or crochet? do you want to learn but don't want to commit to a large project? got an old t-shirt? with a pair of cloth scissors, cut your t-shirt into a continuations ribbon about the width of your little finger or half that width. Roll your t-shirt 'ribbon in a ball. From the thrift store or if you have a crafters borrowering library get like maybe number 6-8mm knit needles/ crochet hook. Most craft stores also have economy priced needles/hooks if you want to invest and learn. You can knit/crochet a 'sample' sqare and use it as a wash cloth for your dishes. You can do this trying out new stitches as well with cotton yarns (look in thrift stores, rummage sales and craft discount sales). This way you are learning a new skill, recycling a spent object and hopefully being enthused and having fun. It might even become a hobby!

So my friends, get outside! Grow a garden, get a hobby and grow yourself in the process!

It's really funny writing a fantasy series because everyone else has maps that I will go absolutely batshit insane over because they're so gorgeous and detailed-

Randomly decided to watch Sanctuary (the Canadian urban fantasy series, not the Japanese sumo series). Highlight so far was the episode with the Nubbins and all the PG13 innuendo jokes that got thrown around, usually at Henry's expense.

The turn he does to stare at the camera/audience with a look of "Can you actually believe this shit?" had me in stitches. A precision 4th wall break.
