Tribes of Anowara: Crumbling Mountains Chapter 12

A mist twisted through the trees as the Kayéil’ Kushtaka and Kígáat, fighters and not, wounded and not, adults and not, followed Tl’áak’ through the forest. The trees were thick, tall and old, and the trail was uneven and covered in roots. The sea was unseen and unheard, and the only water heard was a light dew that accumulated and dripped from the branches, leaves and moss. Birds chirped and squirrels chittered high in the canopy, seemingly unaware of the massive crowd of people coming through the forest. At last, at the very end of the trail, was a clearing. It was flat and small: only barely large en

Tribes of Anowara: Crumbling Mountains chapter 9

Kanat’á hurriedly struck a small piece of iron on a larger piece of flint, attempting to get a spark to catch on a sliver of cedar bark on the flint. “How’s it coming along?” Dleit asked holding a bit of wood for their fire. “Trying. Just get the wood in place.” She said. “I really don’t want to be out here in the dark if half of the stories about them are true.” X’aan said. “Trying to get the fire going, stop worrying.” She continued to strike it several more times in vain, “I just had to grab this flint, didn’t I!?” After a few more strikes, she m

Dleit, Kanat’á, and X’aan were well on their way, keeping a good rhythm with their paddling. It was nearing night and the sky was divided between an intense sunset in the west, and a darker, somewhat starry grey in the east. The area was a strait between two massive islands north and south of one another, each with rocky beaches and forests covered in evergreens. On the island south of them was the Kígáat village of Il’aka, the village Dleit and X’aan’s mother may have been; a village that was causing great amounts of trouble for Laax Áan and Kechna. The three of them were keeping out of it

Éil searched for the tools needed for the ritual; namely the incense. He only needed a rattle, whose head depicted an otter’s face, and a ritual song to accompany it. He immediately retracted his hand from the shelves when he heard the door open. He looked, and it was his apprentice. “I wanted to talk about something before I left.” Éil gave a gentle smile. “Go ahead.” “While we were trying to get back home a large group of sea otters came up to us and grasped onto us, helping us float. Then just above us came a flock of ravens, and the clouds just above us cleared somewhat, making it easier for u

Tribes of Anowara: Prologue

It was a misty autumn afternoon, nearly evening. The sea sat calm, and the wind blew silently, unfeelable. Drops of dew clung to the needles of the trees: Cypress, Cedar, and Pine. Kenéil sat upon a boulder on a gravelly beach, gripping his spear and looking out to sea looking for signs of seals. He too felt the droplets embrace his fur, but he did not mind, his kind loved the water. His kind were the Kayéil Kushtaka, or Peaceful Otter People, in their tongue. The Kayéil Kushtaka were a relatively new race in Anowara, only existing for the last millennia. Physically, they were similar to river otters, only they had opposable t

My Bio

Sge:no. Hello and welcome to my page. I'm a writer who is currently trying to make a name for himself and get his work out to the public. I'm currently writing a series called Tribes of Anowara: a fantasy series based on various myths, legends, and tales of the various native peoples of North America. If that sounds interesting to you, than please read what I have posted of it here.

I'm an Upstate New Yorker through and through and a proud son of Turtle Island. I was born and raised here and I'm looking to spend the rest of my life here among its people, lakes and forests. I was raised Irish-American and I try to honor the ways of my Gaelic ancestors and gods, but I also love many of the traditions we've developed here in America. All that said, from a young age I was drawn in by the indigenous peoples of this great land, and I've been supporting them and trying my best to honor their ways since I was a kid, as I believe it's my duty as someone living in this continent, and I believe that we can all thrive here.

Alongside my writing career, I'm also pursuing a career in wildlife biology. I've always had a love of nature, and I've wanted to work with wild animals and conservation ever since I watched Steve Irwin as a kid (may he rest in peace). I'm hoping to work with the DEC to reintroduce extirpated species such as elk. Some of my favorite outdoor activities include hunting, hiking, camping, and especially fishing, as I love being by the water and fish are my favorite things to eat. I'm hoping to get a nice quiet home by Lake Champlain with lakes and forests in walking distance.

I have Asperger's Syndrome. Not much to say about that really. I was bullied in school, and I've had the occasional academic issue, but I don't dwell on my condition.

I'm a gamer who mostly enjoys historical strategy games and role playing games. Some of my favorite series are The Elder Scrolls, Dragon Age, Fallout, Total War, Civilization, Red Dead, and Star Wars. I also greatly enjoy P&P RPGs such as Dungeons and Dragons, and have been working on an RPG for my series for quite a while now.

Despite my activity in the furry fandom, I don't really consider myself one. I don't have a fursona (although I do use my character Dleit Kageet to represent myself quite often), and most of my interaction is due to art, friends, of which I have many, and to get my work (which features many anthropomorphic races) to a hungry audience.

I love making new friends. I have made plenty here and I hope to meet many more.

Not out of malice, I just haven't found too many reasons to come on, plus the fact that writing's been slow. I'm mostly active on Discord and Reddit nowadays, and I have my own server on Discord, which you may join here https://discord.gg/RqdVRnHj

Made a discord server for worldbuilding and discussion. It's pretty simplistically build right now, so if anyone has any good ideas, feel free to lend them. Here's a link https://discord.gg/Su6S2e

Despite my Dutch surname, most of my family is Irish, and I was raised in a very Irish (or at least Irish American) household. As for indigenous America, I was drawn to them at an early age in history classes due to how different and more "natural" their cultures were, and the tragedy of their history. The more I grew, the more I wanted to respect their ways and traditions since I'm living in their traditional land and want to respect it's ways.
