In honor of the QT merch drop I want to share another patch I made because I love these books more than I can handle.

Hamiathes’s Gift the way I imagined it with the help of a geology degree and the letters on the third(?) edition of The Thief.

I made a series of faux travel posters for Ephestalia as part of the Hamiathes's Gift Exchange '23! Follow the above link to the work to read an accompanying framing device ficlet and read about the paintings and photos used in these image edits.

"Why were these the only dances you knew?"

"Because no one would dance with me. Thieves are never popular. ... My mother taught me. We danced them on the rooftops of the Megaron."

Queen Thief dances safely on the roof with her husband, son, and god, for @cartograffiti and @hoeratius as part of @hamiathesgiftexchange

also here! (quote from The King of Attolia, what a scene)

Destroying the Gift

She was quiet for a long time. "I'm going to take it up to the sacred mountain and throw it into Hephestia's fire." "You'll destroy it?" I was shocked. "Yes. I'll take witnesses from here and from Sounis and Attolia as well, and when it is gone, Eddis's throne will descend in the same way as the thrones of other countries."

Celebrating the beginning of Spring Break by producing some new fanart at long last, yay! I guess it was only a matter of time before I'd turn towards The Queen's Thief...

So I've only been looking into the fandom for a hot month or so, so this isn't saying much, but having spent my last decades in the Tolkien fandom, I don't seem to see enough love for Helen "Let's throw this mystic heirloom that confers unquestioned authority into a volcano" Eddis. Isildur wants what she's having. Thanks for the throne but we'll take it from here. Immortality? Thanks but no thanks. Truly we stan a queen.

(Seriously though, I'm not imagining the parallels and their limits, am I?) And because, as they say, you should be the change that you want to see in the world... my first piece of Queen's Thief fanart celebrates Eddis destroying Hamiathes's Gift, with some gratuitious guards and witnesses. Wearing some form of stylish light travelling uniform, I guess? (Do they even have linothorax in Eddis? Since they produce the finest linen on the Little Peninsula they may as well have linothorax. I mean, wouldn't you? Also I realise belatedly that Helen may not actually be supposed to have the warrior tattoos. Does she? Is it ever mentioned? I am suddenly full of doubts.)

_ _ _

As a side note, my new scanner eats colours even worse than my old scanner ever did and I didn't quite manage to restore them to their correct saturation, but this is the closest I managed to get. On my screen, anyway. :/ You gotta know when to call it a day...

Gifted to me by @hoeratius for the @hamiathesgiftexchange. No words, this fic is incredible. Go read!

#fic rec #queen's thief #queen of attolia #this year's hamiathes gift exchange felt like a birthday when you're a child and get an unexpected number of presents

This is not exactly what was requested, but te prompt got me wondering what kind of person Dite would fall in love with after mending his broken heart, and this is all I could think of...

This was drawn as a treat for @allcanonisrelative for the @hamiathesgiftexchange!

Vibrating with anticipation bc I participated in my first ever fic exchange recently but while works are revealed authors aren't so I can't post what I wrote yet. but Soon

#it's for megan whalen turner's queen's thief series - if you're a fan check out hamiathes' gift exchange! #133 new works added it's amazing

[zirconbaker]

Eddis's fancy battle outfit Dress inspired by art by @emilybeemartin inspired by my favorite books by @meganwhalenturner.

I've never been good at fan art or writing, but I've found sewing to be my preferred way of showing love for others' work, people, and place.

I've included Hamiathes's Gift in this. I found the rock in a stream and the cord at a used craft store. The gods haven't blessed this one but it still feels like magic.

(Please ignore the weird doors, I live in a converted barn and the walls are a little weird.)

@lady-feste-pendragon and I wanted to write @sophosthewisebunny a nice story about cow cuddling therapy for the Hamiathes's Gift Exchange '23, so we put our heads together, and 7 weeks later we emerged from our fugue state with 40,000 words of fic, a cookbook, and deleted scenes, as well as this graphic I made. Truly, what else is fandom for? Costis/Kamet, rated T.
