I loved you first, I loved you first
Beneath the sheets of paper lies my truth
I have to go, I have to go
Your hair was long when we first met
🎶 Lyrics from Samson by Regina Spektor 🎶
Something about Ged and Estarriol and a quiet love that exists in the forgotten fragments of history

okay wait i need a more thoughtful compilation of the earthsea passages i have saved
1. alwayyys tenar once i meant to kill him now ill make him live if i can which of us saved the other from the labyrinth. always. the farthest shore walked as a heroes journey adventure so that 20 yrs later tehanu could run in the aftermath of the heroes journey from the perspective of the women who had until now been excluded. and her boldness reminds me of when she was arha
2. tehanus that will be my gift back to the world that gave me the life i did live the love i loved and the breath i breathed. dear dragon girl
3. these two go together. tenars almost immediate love for lebannen like she sees immediately why ged cared abt him she loves him for the same reasons. my son my king my dear boy.
4. ged finds a girl in a cave and she locks him up but they wind up escaping together and in her nervousness about an outside world she was secluded from all her life she says she just wants to live in the mountains and he genuinely is like yes itll be hard but if thats what u want we’ll do it. okay tbh hes probably already in that existential crisis we see in farthest shore and tehanu
5. this is like the companion to the tenar-with-lebannen passages because now its ged-with-therru (step-parents w the kids the other person adopted LOL) so many of my saved passages r feelings over little therru
bonus um. the i do know you. i do know you. its like this + the whole section after but vetch is so important TO ME. also that fanart of this scene i rbed a while ago. real

AI-Less Whumptober day 26+27
Prompt: Magical exhaustion or injury + Locked away
Fandom: Earthsea
Summary: Vetch was the only one to run towards the shadow, not away from it. He was the only one to try and tear it from his friend. The next months were not easy for the one who had failed to stop the tragedy before it struck.

A rare bit of sketchy A Wizard of Earthsea fanart from me: Sparrowhawk (right) and his friend Vetch (left) as I imagine them maybe a year after the events of the first book. I always loved their friendship.

Fiiiiine I'll read a le guin book xD do you have favourite or one you recommend a lot? It doesn't have to be just one if you can't decide haha
the most popular recommendations would likely be a wizard of earthsea if you’d prefer fantasy (a coming of age story with the occasional dragon battle and great side characters like VETCH) and the left hand of darkness if you’d prefer sci-fi (a story with a more epic scope that still has a powerful emotional core). as far as short stories go, the ones who walk away from omelas is a classic piece of semi-dystopian metafiction. buffalo gals is also a good one, and changing planes is a fun anthology that really gives you a sense of the imagination and passion that goes into the worldbuilding of le guin. my personal favorite, though, is the annals of the western shore trilogy, which admittedly isn’t as rich as the others, but is likely the easiest entry point to her style of writing.

Read the first Earthsea book today, and thus my first novel-length UKLG work. I would die for Vetch.
