"Dans l'Ombre de Paris", first song of "La Dernière Geste", by Morgan of Glencoe.

"Yuri baissa les yeux. Son hôtesse avait raison raison. Assister son époux lorsqu'il le requiert, organiser les réceptions royales et donner un héritier au Royaume de France. Ils vécurent heureux et eurent beaucoup d'enfants. Fin de l'histoire. Fin de la vie. Fin des rêves. À vingt ans. Comme un trai qui s'arrêtait parvenu au bout des rails, sans possibilité de dévier de sa route ni même de la poursuivre un peu plus loin. L'image de la Capitaine Trente-Chênes s'imposa à l'esprit de la jeune femme. "Cette femme n'a pas de chaperon", avait dit Ryûzaki. Pas de chaperon. Pas de père, pas de fiancé, pas d'époux, pas de fils. Pas d'obligations envers un homme qui lui serait supérieur. Et tout un équipage à ses ordres. Qu'importait qu'elle obtînt l'obéissance par le respect ou par la crainte? Un souvenir lointain lui revint en mémoire. un oeil bleu entre des cheveux noirs. La petite Selkie de Gôshi Mayo, enfermée dans sa cage, l'avait dévisagée avec compassion. Comme si la fée avait perçu l'invisible prison dans laquelle on l'élevait, elle, Nekohaima Yuri-hime, troisième femme du Japon, et compris sa solitude.", from Dans l'Ombre de Paris.

"-Pyro, regarde-moi. Tu vas bientôt avoir seize ans, et tu n'as jamais vu le ciel, parce que tu es né ici. Moi, je suis née sous un ciel infini, dans un océan si immense que tu es né ici. Moi, je suis née sous un ciel infini, dans un océan si immense que tu ne peux même pas l'imaginer. J'en ai profité durant bien des années, et il y a un mois encore je dansais sous des étoiles que tu n'as connues qu'en rêve. Voilà pourquoi tu dois aller avec Lady Lore et les enfants. Pour voir les étoiles, le ciel et la mer. Tu ne dois pas mourir avant de les avoir vus, les avoir vus pour de vrai, pas seulement un morceau de ciel et trois étoiles blafardes perdues entre deux immeubles… -Mais pourquoi? -Tu comprendras lorsque tu les verras.", from Dans l'Ombre de Paris.

reading challenge #11 (wrap-up)

Just finished: The Mark of Athena by Rick Riordan

Currently reading: The House of Hades by Rick Riordan

Next on schedule: The Blood of Olympus by Rick Riordan

I just wanted to add for myself a little conclusion to the reading challenge I did last year! I went back to university, so I had a lot less time and motivation to read for the past six months. Because of that, I didn't achieve my goals in the end, but that's alright, I'm still very proud of all the dusting-off I did! My TBR pile is much more manageable now, so I will not be keeping up with this challenge in 2024 (I barely read anything not Percy Jackson-related since January, anyway).

So, if anyone is interested in random lists of books, in 2023 I checked off my program:

(FR) Le Prieuré de l'Oranger (The Priory of the Orange Tree) by Samantha Shannon

(FR) La voleuse de livres (The Book Thief) by Markus Zusak

(FR) L'École des femmes + Le Misanthrope by Molière

(EN) Babel, or the Necessity of Violence by R. F. Kuang

(EN) Wuthering Heights by Emily Brontë

(EN) Daughter of Smoke and Bone + Days of Blood and Starlight + Dreams of Gods and Monsters by Laini Taylor

(FR) Le Chien des Baskerville (The Hound of the Baskervilles) by Arthur Conan Doyle

(FR) Thérèse Raquin by Émile Zola

(FR) Le symbole perdu (The Lost Symbol) by Dan Brown

(FR) Siddhartha by Hermann Hesse

(FR) Il était une fois dans le Nord (Once Upon A Time In The North) by Philip Pullman

(FR) Le Roi Lear (King Lear) by William Shakespeare

(EN) The Conqueror’s Saga (And I Darken + Now I Rise + Bright We Burn) by Kiersten White

(FR) Le Flambeau + Témoin à charge by Agatha Christie

(FR) Boudicca by Jean-Laurent Del Socorro

(FR) Fantômes et kimonos by Kidō Okamoto

(FR) Dans l'ombre de Paris by Morgan of Glencoe

For a total of 23 books out of my goal of 30 that I had owned for years and never read!

Which means that my TBR pile now amounts to these 12 books (I acquired the last 4 last year so they were not included in my program):

(FR) L'Ultime Expérience by Bruce Benamran

(FR) Cinna by Corneille

(FR) Othello by Shakespeare

(EN) Three Dark Crowns (re-read) + One Dark Throne by Kendare Blake

(EN) Iskari, the Last Namsara by Kristen Ciccarelli

(EN) The Merciful Crow by Margaret Owen

(FR) Le complot des corbeaux by Ariel Holzl

(FR) La mythologie viking (North Mythology) by Neil Gaiman

(FR) La métamorphose by Franz Kafka

(EN) A Day of Fallen Night by Samantha Shannon

(EN) The Picture of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde

In addition to all that, although disregarding anything fanfictitious, last year...

(and because I barely have any self-control when it comes to books)

...I also read these, which were not initially included in my program:

(EN) And Then There Were None by Agatha Christie

(EN) Pachinko by Min Jin Lee

(FR) Le château de Hurle (Howl’s moving castle) by Diana Wynne Jones

(EN) The Princess Diaries vol. 1 by Meg Cabot

(EN) Strange the dreamer + Muse of Nightmares by Laini Taylor

(EN) Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen

(EN) Divergent vol. 1 by Veronica Roth

(EN) Legendborn + Bloodmarked by Tracy Deonn

(FR) Comme un vol d'étourneaux by Giorgio Parisi

(FR) Le meilleur des mondes (Brave New World) by Aldous Huxley

(EN) I’m Glad My Mom Died by Jennette McCurdy

(EN) Crooked House by Agatha Christie

(EN) Untethered Sky by Fonda Lee

(FR) La guerre des clans (Warriors) - cycle I vol. 1-6 by Erin Hunter

(EN) Tallstar’s Revenge by Erin Hunter

(FR) Le mystère de Listerdale by Agatha Christie

After all these gruesome lists, I can finally put to rest my 2023 reading challenge. Maybe one day I'll renew it, but I probably won't have the time nor the energy to schedule my readings so seriously for the next two years. It's been very fun though, also it had been the first year in quite some time that I read that much in French, and I think it did me good.

King Henry’s Funeral: Foreign Monarchs and Royals Arrive at the Abbey

It’s time to say goodbye to our beloved King in Willow Creek, and the foreign guests from around the simworld have arrived at the abbey. The first ones to arrive were TM King Maxwell and Queen Morgan of the Winden Territories followed by TM King Richard and Queen Elissa of Carrington. This is the first time both monarchs visit Willow Creek, although Queen Elissa attended the Queen Annual’s Tea Party a few years ago. 

Next up were HM Queen Helena of Monaca and her son and heir HRH Crown Prince Maximilian, Duke of Rosemont followed by HM Queen Sofia of Windasia and her husband HRH Prince Consort Darien. Both the Queen Helena and Queen Sofia have been in Willow Creek before. 

Arriving next were TM King David and Queen Blair De Villiers followed by HM King Arthur of Albion. Both King David and King Arthur have never visited Willow Creek before, and we are glad to have them here on this special occasion.

Next up were two of the late King’s closest friends HM Queen Alexandra of Farrington next to her husband HRH Prince Christopher and her sister and best friend to our new Queen, HRH Princess Alice, the Princess Royal.

Following the Queen of Farrington were HM Queen Alma of Simovia next to HM Queen Aisling of Culloden and her son and heir HRH Crown Prince Michael, Duke of Glencoe. Queen Alma and Queen Aislaing have already been to Willow Creek for the Queen’s Annual Tea Party as well a few years ago, and we are very pleased to have them back again to say farewell to the King.

"La Dernière Geste", by Morgan of Glencoe.

"Elle venait de la Terre. Elle, venait de l'Océan. Elle était l'enfant du Soleil. Elle, la petite sœur de la Lune. Elle était promise au monde au temps. Elle, vouée à l'univers et à l'éternité. Des ténèbres naquit leur amitié. De leur amitié naquit La Dernière Geste.", from La Dernière Geste, première chant.

Hell in a Handbag Productions is pleased to continue its 15th Anniversary Season with the world premiere of BEWILDERED, a musical parody of the classic TV sitcom Bewitched, told from the perspective of Gladys Kravitz, Samantha Stephens’ iconic nosy neighbor. Featuring a book by Ron Weaver, music and lyrics by Aaron Benham and Ron Weaver and direction and choreography by Brigitte Ditmars, BEWILDERED will play September 27 – November 11, 2017 at Stage 773, 1225 W.

Can Gladys prove her visions are real without destroying the Stephens family – or is she doomed to a life of pills and institutions? Gladys finally gets her due in this fun and magical musical parody.
