Add realism to your fantasy stories by having characters from different backgrounds struggle to pronounce each others' names.

"My name is [low guttural sound] but I don't want to hear you butcher it. So you may call me She Who Arises With The Cold Mountain Sun."

"...Is that what your name really means? All that in just one word?"

"Yes. If you stress the wrong syllable it comes out as 'She Who Coldly Wakes Up The Mountain Sun', or 'The Cold Woman Who Wakes The Mountain Sun', and you will not call me that."

"Oh, huh. Could we just call you Mountain Sun, for short?"

"Hmh. It's boastful, almost bordering on blasphemy, but it is flattering. I accept it."

Sick and tired of this being constantly thrown around to shame people but say it with me now

MIASMA 👏 IS 👏 NOT 👏 THE 👏 HELPOL 👏 EQUIVALENT 👏 OF 👏 SIN 👏

Miasma is a word used to describe rape, murder, evil things we should not do.

Sin is a violation of the Christian god's will.

Lyma is the inherent spiritual uncleanliness that comes with being human, NOT miasma. These two concepts have been falsely conflated. Lyma is what you use khernips for, not miasma. On that note, khernips is not necessary to get rid of lyma, just a shower or washing your hands is enough in today's modern age of cleanliness. Lyma is not evil either. Miasma is the spiritual equivalent of committing a crime, because you only get miasma upon committing something like murder or rape or what-have-you. Miasma is inherently evil.

Sin is not inherently evil because you are born with it and you can be saved. Miasma is inherently evil because it is the religious equivalent of crimes.

I say inherently because yes, some sin is evil, but not all sin is. To say “all” of something, whether in theology or history, is a big big BIG error unless it is quite literally 100%. People seem to have forgotten that too.

Most importantly, a lot of the religious historians we have are Christian and they put their Christian viewpoint on everything. That is why it's so important not to take everything in a resource super literally and to cross reference your sources.

Miasma is not "sin" because you can't compare two concepts that existed centuries apart from each other that may, to your modern eye in a world where christianity is the norm, look similar.

Stop spreading misinformation under the guise of miasma. Most importantly, stop sending asks to tumblr blogs to do your research for you. Google scholar is free. Internet archive is free. Got a question? Research it! Having trouble? Ask people for help! There's nothing wrong with asking someone's opinion on something but to take that person's opinion as law thereafter? Are we forgetting that we're sharing opinions and not facts and that facts need to have sources listed at the end?

The decline of research in pagan spaces and the steady rise of blindly believing what your favourite tumblr blog says is a dangerous fuel to the anti-intellectualism fire that's been burning for a few years now. I'll end this by saying that this post is not targeted, but if you feel targeted, then I think you have a bit of self reflection to do.

Gooood Morning, Arcane Acres!!!

I hope you're doing okish given everything going on in the world right now. We at the cafe have been stress cooking and baking our butts off, so we're running a buy one, get one half off special on all baked goods and meals. Katelyn's been experimenting with hot chocolate flavours. Right now, we're featuring a particularly nice smoked paprika hot chocolate and pomegranate hot chocolate today. The baby pheonixes are fond of her ghost pepper hot chocolate.

Don't forget to have a drink of water, a snack, and take your meds.

Good afternoon, Arcane Acres!

I hope you're all keeping as cool as you can today. Gods know the weather hasn't been overly kind lately, especially to the human helping to run the blog. Johnny just brought out a fresh batch of raspberry and strawberry danishes, and honestly? They're freakin' delicious. He also has a batch of cream cheese danishes in now, and they smell absolutely divine. Mmm, I'm getting a bit peckish now... Don't forget to hydrate, have a snack, and take your meds, hon.

Gooood Friday morning, Arcane Acres!

I hope you're doing ok. Well, as ok as *gestures at everything* can let you right now. Katelyn is making chai-spiced hot chocolates and Johnny has peppermint and butterscotch brownies almost ready to come out of the oven now. He's also looking at making breakfast sandwiches yins can reheat at home. Ronald brought some of the adoption-ready hellhound puppies over as well. Don't forget to hydrate, eat a snack here and there, and take your meds.

Thank you @knittykitty86 and everyone who got me to 10 reblogs!

Goooood afternoon, Arcane Acres!!! I hope you're all doing the best you can on this No Kings Day. We're keeping the shop open as a refuge for those seeking a quick break room hydrate and get a little something to eat, maybe visit Barry for a comforting hug or just chill with the hellhound moms and puppies Roland brought over for socialization time. Johnny has some very lovely brioche bread coming out of the oven in a few minutes that we've been using as a base for our breakfast sandwiches, and Katelyn the newest kobold barista is particularly good at mocha cappuccinos. -Frannie☕️☕️☕️
