Once the finishing touches had been made to the sculptures, the four friends stood back to admire their work. Not bad, not bad at all. For a brief moment, Iora thought she notice a strange blue glow coming from the one statue she had worked on, but a second look revealed nothing usual. Maybe the full moon was starting to play tricks on her. As nice as this place was, it was time for them to move on. Without a word, Iora turned in the direction opposite of the big hill and set off at once. Thor followed her at once, but Mocha hesitated for just a moment. She looked at the sculptures for a long while, then turned to follow the others. Yet the one question in her mind was secretly shared by her three companions. Who had made these statues? Mocha had an additional in mind. Why? Yet the sight of these snowy creations did fill Iora with hope. It was pretty clear that these were not natural formations, somebody else had crafted those sculptures out of snow and were in the midst of

[EC] Do You Want to Build A Snowman?

The three unicorns raced through the frozen forest, having fun despite the previous bad mood between the palomino and chestnut. This world was strange, and their summer bodies were not made for a sudden winter wonderland, each one having yet to grow out their rough winter coats. But a good run was one way to warm up, though they would have to be careful to take it easy. Sweating now would just chill their bodies faster. Iora had slowed back to a trot and was currently making her way up a large hill. The snow was deeper in some places, so she really had to work hard to force her way through. As did Mocha who was of similar build. With his heavier body, Thor did pretty good just plowing his way through the snow, but even he had to work a bit to get up this hill. Iora finally reached the top and took a moment to catch her breath. Looking around as she did so. So far they have found nothing. Except for a few frozen streams that were easy to crack in some places for fresh water. But so

[EC] Dashing Through the Snow

Even though Thor and Mocha had stopped fighting, things were still tense between the two unicorns. Iora tried not to dwell on it, instead focusing on trying to figure out where they go from here. It hadn't taken long for her to realize that this world was totally different from the one they had left behind when crossing through that portal. The vast forests of the Blooming Territory were gone, replaced by a barren landscape dominated by scraggly trees encased in ice. At first glance, the world appeared rather dead and inhospitable. Yet Iora had a feeling that this place was very much alive. They would best be cautious. For a moment, Iora was tempted to just stay put. Maybe the portal would open up again at a certain time. But who knew when the next time would come? They would either freeze to death or starve as there were no signs of food, not even little bushes with leaves that were probably bitter, but would be better than nothing. Iora took a moment to look around, then picked

[EC] Into the Unknown

'This is rather nice,' Iora thought as she let out a small snort of contentment. Whether or not the moon was made of honey or not, Iora was not going to deny that tonight was a truly beautiful night. The sky was clear of clouds, allowing a clear view of the moon and stars. The temperature was mild, not too hot or too cold, and a gentle breeze was blowing through the trees. In the background she could hear the sounds of the creatures who made their living under the cover of darkness. She pricked her ears and listened carefully, but soon relaxed once she was certain that there were no threats nearby. She did hear the calls of an owl which seemed to be fairly close by and Iora lifted her head, scanning the branches of the nearby trees for a glimpse of the silent hunter. To her disappointment, Iora had no luck finding the owl and the calls eventually did not come again. Oh well, at least she heard it. But then she did see something rather curious. Bits of light had appeared out of nowhere

[EC] Returning a Kindness

The bitterness was starting to fade away, yet Iora still waited to see if anything more was going to happen. So far there was not burning sensation in her throat or stomach cramps. She didn’t feel dizzy either. There was something curious going on with her eyes, but it seemed to be a positive thing. Iora noticed that there was a strange clarity to her eyesight, though looking at her friends made their edges look a bit fuzzy. Huh, maybe that flower wasn’t so bad after all? It just didn’t taste very good and the roan probably would not be in a rush to consume another one if their paths should happen to cross again. “Iora? Are you feeling okay?” Thor asked, taking a cautious step forward and stretching out his neck to peer closely at her face. Out of all the others, he was the most surprised by her decision. Iora had often told them about her parents and how her mom had always seemed to have good advice. It was kind of mind boggling that his leader would just go ahead and eat the whole

[5 Isles] Decorating with Estephania

Estephania stepped into the den and stood still, looking around. The space was empty, but it was large, cozy, and decorated with flowers. It would have to do, though she might ask for the current blooms to be traded for flowers that were more to her taste. Feeling a tap to her back hock, Estephania stepped out of the way for the puffin who came shuffling in. "Sorry my dear Quesnel, I got distracted for a moment." Bending her neck, the pale doe gave the bird a little nuzzle, then drew back to see what he thought of their new living arrangements. After what seemed like an hour, Quesnel decided that this den was acceptable. He had found a place to squat down and was currently preening his feathers. Turning her head to look over one shoulder, Estephania found herself looking at a Phae who had been tasked with helping her move her belongings from her old home to her new one. "You can just sit them down right then," she said, pointing with her nose. "I will sort through the items

Be Prepared: A Twisted Tale's new character by A-Little-Ragdoll, journal

Be Prepared: A Twisted Tale's new character

Jan 12, 2025

After getting to read the new book (which is very good imo) I wanted to share with all of you the new characters described in it! In terms of females, counting Nala, there are 6 female adolescent cubs in the pride, and including Sarafina & Sarabi, there are 12 adult lionesses in the pride. (page 20) Kamari and Scar are the only males in the pride, there were 2 other adult male lion, but they were banished by Scar when he took over (page 79) In roughly order of age (youngest to oldest), for cubs we have: Abena, Puleng, Nala, Lindiwe, Bontu, Kahina, Kamari, and Ola. The only thing we know is that Abena is the youngest and smallest born cub in the pride, and Puleng is a little younger than Nala (page 23) And again, in rough order of age (youngest to oldest), for adult lionesses we have: Olee, Sefu, Kito, Sarafina, Sarabi, Thandi, and Fayola. All the lionesses are around the same age and it doesn't say for sure who is older or younger, except we do know Sefu and Kito are subservient to and younger than Thandi and Fayola (page 133), and that Sarabi is older than Sarafina (page 132) Kito is Sarabi's sister (page 72) and Kamari & Lindiwe's mother (page 63) Kamari is the older brother, and Lindiwe is the younger sister. (page 13) Fayola is Abena & Ola's mother (page 31) Ola is the older sister, and Abena is the younger sister. Olee is a pregnant lioness (page 133) Nala's grandmother (due to context, I assume it's Sarafina's mother) is mentioned on page 45 to have been born and raised in the Pride Lands. Hakim, Akeem, and "Burly" (page 259) are brother lions in a pride called the Hatari Pride. They have "full bouffant manes" Hakim was the sole leader of the pride, and then his 2 brothers joined him. Back in the day, Scar tried to take over the Hatari Pride, but Hakim was too strong for him. Luckily (or maybe not) Mufasa came in and saved his brother from the other male. Sarabi has scouts, including a Leopard (page 324) and a male Dwarf Mongoose (page 65) In the Jungle, there is a helpful Bonobo (page 284) There are Abigar Cattle in the Pride Lands. I was going to list every name for the locations in this book until I realized that they were all just actual places in Africa (Zanzibar, Lake Malawi, Otze Forest) If one wanted to take the time, I'm sure you could get a pretty good idea of where exactly the Pride Lands is located using this book as a reference.. but I don't wanna do that right now, so characters is all you get c:

Kalaverse - Okami Storyline

0 min read

[Spoilers it may be, but I do not give a damn because it is very likely I will not get around to ever writing this story down] Depending on how the upcoming Ōkami sequel will interact with Ōkamiden, I have decided to consider that game to be semi-canon. Aspects and characters might appear in my story, but Chibiterasu and most of his friends are not present, nor are any of the new Brush gods...at least not yet. Maybe one or two will come into play later. I do hope that the Sequel will shed some more light on Yami and his past. Like why the hell is the Emperor of Darkness, the origin of several powerful bosses that Amaterasu must face in combat, is just a small fish trapped in a fish bowl who must use technology that might have been created by the Moon Tribe to fight? Is this his true form? Was he also reborn from a previous, more powerful form? And what does Akuro have to do with any of this if he still has weight? The goal of Ōkami was not only to protect Nippon from Yami and his

Kalaverse: Okami - Emperor of Darkness

0 min read

I am kind of borrowing a bit from @Rinjapine since she was the first person (as far as I am aware) who made an OC based on Kagaseo. My version, obviously, is going to be different. Given how Ōkami is much like the Disney Hercules movie where it draws from legend, but then adds all kinds of twists and turns, the setup is obviously a little different from the original stories. Um...I don't actually know the whole back story because I am still a bit undecided about the Brush Gods. They each give Ammy part of their power to help with her quest, but most of them later appear in Okamiden (although their children interacts with Chibiterasu instead). So I wonder if in this world, the Brush Gods are their own versions of deities? Basically, instead of Tsukuyomi as God of the Moon, we instead have Yumigami. Instead of Susanoo, we have Gekigami as god of storms. Kagaseo would take Susanoo's place as a trouble-making god who is exiled from the Celestial Plain for continued bad behavior. In

Kalaverse - Okami

0 min read

Has been a long time since I used one of these to just chuck out my random thoughts and theories. But with the Ōkami sequel in the works, I wanted to explore my own ideas. Not gonna lie, I am looking forward to this new game, but I also have some reservations too. You never know what they might keep or change. I hope the gameplay is true to the first game because that is one of my biggest complaints for Ōkamiden. I like Chibiterasu and I understand he is just a child, a little wolf pup unlike Amaterasu who is an adult wolf (as was Shiranui before her). But he is also a god, and apparently Issun's efforts during the battle against Yami allowed there to be enough belief in Ammy and the gods. Unless in true human fashion, the people of Nippon have slacked off a bit now that their lives are no longer on the line. But I just felt like Chibi was so limited, like he can't even read. He can't jump off of platforms and land unharmed (heck I have had Ammy vault off the upper walkways of Wep'keer
