Can we talk about how much Ash loves Jenna though? Convinced she’s dead until she attacks him with a hoard of dragons, nah he still loves her. Occasionally sprouts scales, nah he still loves her. Has a crazy half-sister that’s threatened to burn him alive, nah he still loves her. Almost exposes his true identity by calling him “wolf”, nah he still loves her. Not only that, he told his mom about her and mourned her supposed death. All this after knowing her for only a few short weeks everybody. And that right there is why we love Adrian sul’Han.

Hey everyone shattered realms infodump post/basics about it to convince ppl to read it!!

Summary/Intro to characters:

The Shattered Realms is a four book fantasy series covering different converging conflicts within the world of the Seven Realms. There are eight main characters who give narration in various chapters across the four books.

When the Shattered Realms starts, two of the nations within the Seven Realms have been at war for 25 years. One of these nations is the Queendom of the Fells, while the other is the Kingdom of Arden. The war started when Queen Raisa of the Fells rejected a marriage proposal from King Gerard of Arden.

Two of the main characters are the children of Queen Raisa and her consort, the High Wizard Han Alister.

Adrian sul’Han, aka Ash, is a wizard healer who’s been secretly training at the wizard school that’s located on neutral ground near Arden. He spends his summers as an assassin in Arden.

Alyssa ana’Raisa, aka Lyss, is the next in line to the Fellsian throne, and serves as an officer in the Fellsian army. She’s skilled at fighting and military strategy, but she has a short temper and feels awkward in political settings.

While wizards are accepted in the Fells, they are persecuted in Arden. The king of Arden has continued fighting his war against the Fells by branding it as a sort of crusade against the wizards in the Fells. In Arden, wizards are called mages, and they are forced to use their powers in service of the Ardenine army. Ardenine mages are controlled using collars, which are manufactured by people native to the Fells.

In order to acquire more collars, Arden’s king trades with a smuggler named Lila Barrowhill, who is one of the main characters. She is a mysterious girl, one of very few women and very few Southern Islanders to work directly with the king of Arden. She was raised by her mothers family of coastal smugglers. The identity of her father, however, is one of her most closely guarded secrets.

In Arden, there are only two mages who go uncollared. General Marin Karn, one of the King’s oldest and closest allies, and his son Lieutenant Destin Karn. Destin is another main character in the series. He is the spymaster for the king of Arden, but has his own secret agenda beyond spying for Arden. It is a well known fact that the Karns do not get along with each other.

In Arden, noblemen called thanes hold most of the land and power. The son of the thane Arschel Matelon is another one of the main characters. His name is Halston Matelon. He is a captain in the Ardenine army, well known for being a commander who values his soldiers’ lives and for rising up the ranks through his own talents. Hal is stationed by General Karn in the city of Delphi, presumably to slow Hal’s rise through the military ranks.

Delphi is a mining town controlled by Arden that was once independent. There is a strong underground rebel group there, who do a lot of destruction of Ardenine property. One member of this rebel group is a girl named Jenna Bandelow, who has certain abilities that help her in her work. She’s immune to fire, and can sometimes sense peoples thoughts, pasts, or futures when she touches them. She was born with a mysterious magical mark on her neck, but she doesn’t know what it means.

In Fellsmarch, there is a busker who shares a similar mark to Jenna. His name is Breon d’Tarvos, and he plays a foreign instrument called a jafasa. When he touches someone, or an object they loved, he is able to play a song from their heart that will enchant them. He also does not know what his mark means.

Across the ocean, in the coastal nation known as Carthis, an empress named Celestine Nazari rules. She is hunting for anyone with a mark like Jenna’s or Breon’s, for unknown reasons. Celestine rules all of Carthis except for one port city called Tarvos.

Most people in the Fells and Arden do not know much about Empress Celestine. The most infamous Carthian in the Seven Realms is a pirate named Evan Strangward. Strangward has magic that gives him control over the wind and seas. He’s known as the scourge of the wetlands, taking out Fellsian and Ardenine ships alike. But Evan has his own agenda beyond piracy that is not known outside of his inner circle…

The Shattered Realms are a high fantasy series, that explores themes of trust against all odds and the consequences of war. There’s political intrigue, battles, romance, and dragons. There are also canonically queer characters, and characters who are people of color. These books have been my favorites for a very long time! People who like Six of Crows or Cinda Willams China’s original series The Seven Realms will definitely enjoy this series.

Content warnings for this series include depictions of child abuse, drug usage, a brief (and not very descriptive) sex scene, and typical fantasy setting violence (for example sword fighting, poisoning, stabbing, etc).

Boyfriend’s Day, you know what that means

To Ash, Hal, Breon, Destin, Han, Dancer, Evan, Amon, Shadow, Finn (except not really cuz you did try to kill Julianna, but it wasn’t really you I guess) and Celestine’s current favorite Tarek, I appreciate every single one of you, and so do your significant others. You are all great boyfriends, and deserve the world.

Thank you for making our lives both easier and more hectic.

Sincerely, Jenna, Lyss, Sasha, Evan, Raisa, Cat, Destin, Annamaya, Aspen, Julianna, and me. Celestine doesn’t appreciate you enough, Tarek. So I will.

HAPPY BOYFRIEND’S DAY

(I reached the limit when I was tagging lmao why do people have so many different names in these books)

[lilabyrne]

um hi everyone in the shattered realms is transgender and i want to compile a new list of my gender sexuality hcs because. why not

adrian sul’han/ash - bisexual, aromantic. also i think a trans guy i like to imagine his mother removing him from the line of succession being a very hashtag gender affirming moment

jenna bandelow - ok she’s like kind of part dragon (?) or at least has dragon behaviors and a dragon mindset so i don’t think gender or sexuality fit within human boundaries for her. i think shes genderfluid tho even before she established her bonds w the dragons

alyssa ana’raisa/lyss - bisexual. demigirl. she like canonically struggles with gender and her own presentation and like.. on the one hand she is mostly a gnc woman but also i think she’s got some transgender thoughts. she/they lyss supremacy

halston matelon/hal - absolutely bisexual. cisgender but normal about it. he’s bisexual the way the guy in mulan is bisexual

breon d’tarvos - queer as an overall identity encompassing gender and sexuality. he’s sure not cishet this guy is an artist

oh boy. it’s time for the Big 3 (most interesting headcanons i think about endlessly and change all the time)

lila barrowhill byrne - oh she’s an enigma. i can’t decide which combo of aro/ace/lesbian she is.. currently leaning towards lesbian. however aroace lila also makes me happy. whatever she is she’s not attracted to men!! also idk about her gender im thinking like transfem lila how do we feel about transfem lila i like the idea tbh

destin karn - canonically he’s gay. never shows interest in any woman and tbh only even shows interest in one man. also i think he’s a little bit transgender just really really repressed but im a he/they destin truther

evan strangward - so canon gay that it’s like the first thing u learn about him the first time he narrates. also nonbinary i think! tbh seems like the type who presents however he wants on a whim. gender is whatever pisses u off the most. would wear a lehenga

[pirate-and-soldier]

Ash: the stars and moon look beautiful tonight

Jenna: yeah

Ash: you know who else is beautiful?

Jenna: *blushes* who?
