Another new Troiani piece, featuring an American Loyalist and a Native ally with Joseph Brant, the Mohawk leader who lead Crown operations on the New York frontier during the American Revolution.

Brant fought in the 7 Years War, and in 1775 was received in London, where he met King George III and was inducted as a Freemason. He was also given a number of rifles as a gift, one of which he employed on his return voyage to America when his ship encountered a rebel privateer.

He commanded Loyalist and Native forces along the frontier throughout the Revolutionary War, and was blamed for a series of massacres, though at least one was exaggerated and another was due to the indiscretions of Loyalist commander Walter Butler.

After the war he and his Iroquois were granted land in Canada. They settled in Ontario and Brant continued to lead them until his death in 1807. He was one of the most well-known Native Americans of the eighteenth century among English-speaking peoples.

[forlibcrty]

it's my boy's birthday so i get to rant about him. can we talk about how fucked it is that achilles gives him the name connor?

first of all, the dialogue when ratonhnhaké:ton actually introduces himself. achilles just says, "right... well, i'm not even going to bother trying to pronounce that." hi? hello hi??? you asked the thirteen year old child for his name, he gave it to you, and you just said you wouldn't even attempt it. gross and bad. and then, when he takes ratonhnhaké:ton to boston for the first time and the child is understandably awed and amazed by a new city, achilles tells him he should pretend to be european (fucked up for a variety of reasons, he absolutely cannot remotely pass as european in appearance or accent, and he's still dressed in his own cultural clothing) and call himself connor.

and that's just. so. achilles' deceased son was named connor. he takes in a kanien'kehá:ka child, flat-out tells him he won't try to pronounce his actual name, commands him to lie about his own ethnicity, and gives him the name of his dead son without asking if that's something ratonhnhaké:ton might be comfortable with.

in conclusion, achilles? watch OUT.

#( * meta. ) #he continues to go by connor for most of the game so i default to that #but it's so extremely profoundly fucked the way he got that name #like i get it! he probably would have gone by a european name the same way thayendanegea went by joseph brant #but achilles could have helped him pick one that he actually wanted and was comfortable using #instead he said 'no actually you'll go by the name of my dead son while i train you' #sorry if achilles has no haters i'm dead i do NOT like him. and ac rogue isn't even canon to me. #idgaf what achilles did in rogue he's dead to me for how he treats connor in ac3 and that's THAT

Deutschribing Germany

Literature

Middle Ages (5th-15th centuries)

Medieval German literature can be divided into two periods: Old High German literature (8th-11th centuries) and Middle High German literature (12th-14th centuries). The only surviving works from the first period are the Hildebrandslied (Lay of Hildebrand), which is the earliest poetic text in German and tells of the tragic encounter in battle between a father and a son, and Muspilli, which deals with the fate of the soul after death and at the Last Judgment.

Middle High German literature saw a 60-year golden age known as mittelhochdeutsche Blütezeit, in which lyric poetry in the form of Minnesang—the German version of courtly love—blossomed thanks to poets such as Walther von der Vogelweide and Wolfram von Eschenbach. Another important genre during this time was epic poetry, of which the most famous example is the Nibelungenlied (The Song of the Nibelungs), which narrates the story of prince Siegfried and princess Kriemhild, among other characters.

Renaissance (15th-16th centuries)

Early New High German literature includes works such as Der Ring (The Ring) by Heinrich Wittenwiler, a 9,699-line satirical poem where each line is marked with red or green ink depending on the seriousness of the material, and Das Narrenschiff (Ship of Fools) by Sebastian Brant, a satirical allegory that contains the ship of fools trope.

Other important authors are satirist and poet Thomas Murner, humanist Sebastian Franck, and poets Johannes von Tepl and Oswald von Wolkenstein.

Baroque (16th-17th centuries)

The Baroque period is characterized by works that reflected the experiences of the Thirty Years’ War and tragedies (Trauerspiele) on Classical themes, the latter were written by authors such as Andreas Gryphius and Daniel Caspar von Lohenstein. The most famous work is Der abenteuerliche Simplicissimus (Simplicius Simplicissimus) by Hans Jakob Christoffel von Grimmelshausen, a picaresque novel that narrates the adventures of the naïve Simplicissimus.

Enlightenment (17th-18th centuries)

The most important writers of the Enlightenment are Christian Felix Weiße, Christoph Martin Wieland, Gotthold Ephraim Lessing, and Johann Gottfried Herder.

The Age of Reason saw the emergence of two literary movements: Empfindsamkeit (sentimental style) and Sturm und Drang (storm and stress). The first one intended to express true and natural feelings and featured sudden mood changes. The latter movement was characterized by individual subjectivity and extremes of emotion in response to the rationalism imposed by the Enlightenment.

Weimar Classicism (18th-19th centuries)

The main drivers behind Weimar Classicism, which synthesized ideas from Classicism, the Enlightenment, and Romanticism, were Johann Christoph Friedrich von Schiller, and Johann Wolfgang von Goethe. 

During this period, Schiller published Die Bürgschaft (The Pledge), a ballad based on the legend of Damon and Pythias found in the Latin Fabulae, and Don Karlos (Don Carlos), a historical tragedy about Carlos, Prince of Asturias, while Goethe wrote Egmont, a play heavily influenced by Shakespearean tragedy, and Faust, a tragic play in which the main character sells his soul to the devil that is considered the greatest work of German literature.

Romanticism (18th-19th centuries)

Important Romantic writers include E. T. A. Hoffmann, author of Der Sandmann (The Sandman), a short story based on the mythical character of said name that puts people to sleep by sprinkling sand on their eyes; Heinrich von Kleist, who wrote Das Kätchen von Heilbronn (The Little Catherine of Heilbronn), a drama set in Swabia in the Middle Ages; Joseph Freiherr von Eichendorff, author of Das Marmorbild (The Marble Statue), a novella about a man who struggles to choose between piety and a world of art, and Novalis, author of Hymnen an die Nacht (Hymns to the Night), a collection of six poems.

Folk tales collected by the Brothers Grimm became very popular during the Romantic period, as they represented a pure form of national literature and culture.

Biedermeier and Young Germany (19th century)

The Biedermeier period contrasts with the Romantic era and is best exemplified by poets Adelbert von Chamisso, Annette von Droste-Hülshoff, and Wilhelm Müller.

Young Germany was a youth movement whose main proponents were Karl Gutzkow, Ludolf Wienbarg, and Theodor Mundt.

Realism and Naturalism (19th century)

The most representatives realist authors are Gustav Freytag, Theodor Fontane, and Theodor Storm, while Gerhart Hauptmann was the most important naturalist writer.

Weimar literature (20th century)

During the Weimar Republic, writers such as Erich Maria Remarque, Heinrich Mann, and Thomas Mann presented a bleak look at the world and the failure of politics and society.

Expressionism (20th century)

As a modernist movement, Expressionism presented the world solely from a subjective perspective, distorting it for emotional effect. Famous authors include novelists Alfred Döblin and Franz Kafka, playwrights Ernst Toller and Georg Kaiser, and poets August Stramm and Else Lasker-Schüler.

Neue Sachlichkeit (20th century)

Neue Sachlichkeit (New Objectivity) arose as a reaction against expressionism and was characterized by its political perspective on reality and portrayal of dystopias in an emotionless reporting style, showing cynicism about humanity. Authors associated with this movement include Erich Kästner, Hans Fallada, and Irmgard Keun.

Nazi Germany (1933-1945)

During the Nazi regime, some authors went into exile, while others submitted to censorship. The former, who either were of Jewish ancestry or opposed the regime for political reasons, include writers Alice Rühle-Gerstel and Anna Seghers, playwright Bertolt Brecht, and poet and novelist Hermann Hesse/Emil Sinclair.

Those who stayed and engaged in inner emigration include writer Friedrich Reck-Malleczewen, poet and essayist Gottfried Benn, writer Hans Blüher, and poet and novelist Ricarda Huch.

Post-war literature (20th century)

The most famous authors in West Germany were Edgar Hilsenrath, Günter Grass, Heinrich Böll, and Group 47, a group of participants in writers’ meetings invited by Hans Werner Richter.

East German writers include Christa Wolf, Heiner Müller, Reiner Kunze, and Sarah Kirsch.

Contemporary literature (21st century)

Fantasy and science fiction authors include Andreas Eschbach, Frank Schätzing, and Wolfgang Hohlbein. Some of the most important poets are Aldona Gustas, Hans Magnus Enzensberger, and Jürgen Becker. Thriller is best represented by Ingrid Noll. Fiction novelists include Herta Müller, Siegfried Lenz, and Wilhelm Genazino.

Turn Week 2023 Day 7: If I could change one thing...

For starters, I agree with what @honorhearted said about wishing the show was more character-driven than plot-driven. And the fact that it’s an ensemble cast is no excuse. If I could have this show with Downton Abbey-style narrative flair and pacing, I’d be thrilled.

I’m currently working with a friend on a secret hush! project that is basically a supernatural being AU, so I can’t pick that one as I’m already taking the reins myself.

I’m going to be a broken record and say I would have loved to have seen more Indigenous elements involved. Granted, yes, the show is about spies and the Culper Spy ring in general. But there are also story lines about Rogers and Akinbode, family relationships explored in Judge Woodhull and Samuel Townsend, and those enrich the main themes, they don’t take away from them. Even Rivington gives us a little speech.

Why couldn’t there have been more focus on the lives of Han Yerry and Awasos and their stories? It’s just such a big part of the historical context to wipe from the record. Indigenous populations, warriors, sachems, politicians and thinkers were involved in this conflict at every level, even as fighters in the Continental Army itself (Stockbridge militia, whoop whoop!). Not to mention the British and their extremely loyal and powerful ally in Joseph Brant (Thayendanegea) of the Mohawk. The presence of Indigenous warriors was used as a psychological tactic on both sides, and when they weren’t used in more formal military offences, they were used in sneakier missions, like scouting, raiding parties, and the like. How easy it would have been to include more Indigenous characters!

The interactions of Caleb, Ben, Rogers, the British generals and the Continental generals with their Indigenous allies would have told us a LOT, creating a richer portrayal, more intricate political tapestries, and frankly, should have been the baseline for inclusion.

*clears throat* *drinks water*

Also.

I would change the last line of the show. To literally anything else.

I’m still thinking of those beaded smiley-face hair pieces

I love Kanen’tó:kon and Connor’s relationship so much and their development as it leads towards their fallout

It’s a real god damn shame Charles Lee was a catalyst of it ending for good

I have more ac3 thoughts under the cut

Like,,, he wasn’t needed ????? Their motivations for splitting was pretty clear already

They didn’t need Lee’s intervention bc that but of writing is just kinda ,, unnecessary and does Kanen’tó:kon’s character a disservice

Like he has a hard time enough trusting Connor due to how closely he’s working with colonists already and seeing his own village’s involvement in the war as inevitable, so the game choosing the easy way out with having him trust Lee over his Own Best Friend (and likely cousin) is eh

I have ideas for rewriting but I don’t rly feel like sharing all of em in detail rn without supervision/proofreading/sensitivity reading

Just making Kanen’tó:kon join Connor on a few more missions, making the Tea Party event more accurate to history which makes Kanen’tó:kon and Connor hate the colonists more (though Connor continues working with them as a means to an end to fight off the Templars), the inclusion of Joseph Brant (NOT as a Templar or an antagonist or anything like that, he’s just here to rally and give their village the option to join the British), have more conversations with these two,,,

If I could help it, I’d remove Kanen’tó:kon’s death entirely? Him and Connor could still get in a physical fight, but his death really sucks (it’s such an emotional scene so I’m just bummed out this character is being sent off especially with the Lee thing).

He’s set up as a good leader, so if he recovers after the fight maybe it’d be his idea and initiative to move the village without Ratonhnhaké:ton? (After counsel permission and Oiá:ner first of course) It’d still be a bitter ending, but it cements how these two have truly parted after everything and have changed so much.

Both these characters have incredibly strong conflict in the same problem: Keeping their village safe. The way they differed was great enough drama already.

I’m just saying, Lee didn’t have to be here. Or if he did, Kanen’tó:kon would need to have seen and been with Connor through a lot more in order to break off their friendship completely

#resources: muse list

[thewapolls]

BRANDT Not sure where this came from, and it's generic enough a word/name that it could be almost anything. Maybe a reference to Joseph "Monster" Brant, aka Thayendanegea, a famous native american soldier and politician who notably sided with the British against colonists during the American Revolution??? But that'd be pretty obtuse even by WA standards.

SADAS & JR. we saw in the boss tournament. Another name of unclear origin. Google returns are Wild Arms, so it may very well be completely original.

ZABAT appears to be a mislocalization of TZEVAOT or SABAOTH, considered one of the names of the abrahamic god, an epithet from the hebrew word[צְבָאֽוֹת] meaning "armies." For lack of a better image here's the SMT art,

DANTALION/DANTALIAN is another Ars Goetia demon. I don't actually know why he's got the big star design. The original WA1 one i kinda get since he's just generally a sort of wonder worker, i guess he just kinda got tied to DECARABIA and carried forward from there.

speaking of which.... DECARABIA is the Ars Goetia demon specifically associated with appearing as a pentagram that changes into the form of a man. It's the real basis of this whole family tree.

BUER is yet another demon ins the Ars Goetia, originally described as a centaur famous illustration by Louis Le Breton solidified the popular image of BUER as a wheel of goat legs emanating from the head of a lion. From that image we get the 5 legs association with the star shape shared by the monsters here.

#wild arms #I like how the english localization didn't know what Dantarian was #so they just called him Dan Tarian #like he's just some guy named Dan

[lucasbarr]

Just finished Bees and yet again the Bree + Roger subplots are the least interesting to me but I’m glad we got more of William and of Ian and Rachel! It kinda dragged on a bit with the day-to-day monotony of the Ridge (which I usually like but this was a lot) but overall I enjoyed the book!

Major Spoilers under Read More

John Cinnamon is my new favorite character! He is such a sweet young man and I think I’m going to go back and read the Lord John series now too! Because it felt like I was missing something with the whole Percy subplot in MOBY + this book having not read it.

Like lowkey why is everyone other than Jaime and Claire’s immediate offspring (sans Willie) more interesting? Idk how Diana managed to create such an unlikeable little family unit with Brianna, Roger, and their kids (tho I do like Jeremiah, not so much Amanda) but such a rich supporting cast!

Also why give Brianna a heart condition if it’s just magically going to be fixed by her being pregnant?!

I will say though it’s interesting that Davy isn’t a time traveller like his siblings. Makes you wonder if Fergus (who I am also choosing to believe is La Comte’s son) is a traveller or not and what this means for Claire and her family. Also makes one wonder if Percy’s family that he married into or even Fergus himself might be one of her ancestors 👀

The Richardson subplot is…😬 Why would you make an abolitionist the main villian! Not to mention he has African American ancestry! Diana WTF? Your racism is showing in this book 🤦‍♀️ Not to mention the plot with Ulysses/Joseph Stevens… like Diana why???

I am also choosing to believe that Totis is Ian’s son! He is such a sweet addition to the household, even if the reasons were a bit strenuous in the book. Though I am also intrigued by the Jenny/Joseph Brant’s Uncle romance. Though I don’t know why Claire didn’t tell Jenny that the war would be over in a matter of months? 🤔

Makes me wonder why she’s decided to kill off Percy and what this means for the Percy & Fergus storyline.

And why in hell Hal want to see Ben! Like I was under the impression that Amaranthus was in cahoots with Ben and then she went to see him and saw him with a other woman which came out of nowhere. Honestly it would have been more interesting if she’d known and went be with him and left Trevor with the Willie and Lord John. Bye maybe the whole widow thing is a ruse and she lied about the other woman and maybe she is in on it?

Though it makes me wonder if Hal made the poison to poison Ben…

Like I wonder if William will take Amatanthus up on her offer and pass off his title and estates to their kid. Like obviously that’s what Ben did with her and why I thought that Amarantus was more involved with the plan than we saw (esp with her reaction when she went to see him) though I’m dubious about whether her account of the events is true or not.

I mean the way she brazenly suggested the plan that Ben had gone through with seemed suspicious to me!

I think Richardson is involved with Rob Cameron in some way and that the gold is going to come into play. Again, weird choice of villain with Richardson being an abolitionist but I guess we’ll just have to wait and see.

And also WTF happen to Ulysses? Is he dead? I know Duncan was one of his men but like why didn’t you just tell him she was in Nova Scotia? Just be vague and then he might not have tried to ya know oust Jaime and that whole skirmish!

Like I want to see less filler (or just more with beloved characters like Lizzie!) and more streamlining from the editor on the major plot points!

Also WTF happened to Buck!

Cotilleo

Hoy vi un Tiktok acerca de esto y dije, ¿Por qué no?

Advertencia: ninguna

¿Una ventaja que T/N puede tener al estar libremente en la oficina de Miguel?

Fácil, las pantallas que vigilan gran parte de la sede, inicialmente era algo aterrador saber sobre la extensa vigilancia dentro de la organización, pero una vez se mostró la eficacia de la seguridad y la forma en que podía apoyar a las spidersonas las cosas cambiaron de una forma curiosa. Además, todos estaban ocupados en cualquier otra cosa que esos detalles pasaban a un segundo plano, uno que solo importaba si Miguel estaba enojado por el error de alguna misión. 

Miguel y T/N se habían convertido en algo cercano, no como una pareja, pero si lo suficiente como para que Miguel tolere su presencia en su lugar de trabajo.

Ese día era normal o al menos más tranquilo que otros días, las anomalías eran capturadas, estudiadas y regresadas a su dimensión, el trabajo normalmente no terminaba, pero al menos ese día parecía que podían relajarse un poco.

—T/N deja de perder el tiempo — dijo Miguel, dándole la espalda mientras revisaba algunos datos entre sus múltiples pantallas. El ligero brillo amarillo de las pantallas y la poca luz de la habitación ya era algo a lo que T/N estaba acostumbrada. 

—Solo vine a traerte unas empanadas — dijo T/N mientras alzaba una bolsa, la cual tenía varias empanadas, claro, no solo eran para Miguel.

Aunque Miguel estaba dispuesto a protestar, la realidad era que no había estado comiendo como debería y esta vez no quería volver a escuchar las bromas de Lyla recordando que su combustible es el estrés en vez de la comida. 

—Bien — dijo resignado mientras escuchaba con T/N se balanceaba para llegar a la plataforma donde él se encontraba.

La tenue iluminación naranja provocada por las pantallas de Miguel hicieron que T/N encerrara sus ojos suavemente mientras dejaba la bolsa con empanadas en un pequeño espacio. 

Miguel observó de reojo a T/N, pero su tranquilidad desapareció tan pronto Lyla se mostró para saludar y hablar con T/N. 

—Chica, ¿dónde habías estado? ¿en citas? — preguntó la característica voz de la IA mientras su pequeña figura aparecía sobre uno de los hombros de Miguel. 

Una suave risa salió de los labios de T/N mientras negaba con la cabeza, tomando una de las empanadas para abrir la envoltura y empezar a comerla.

—¿De dónde sacas eso? — preguntó T/N divertida, haciendo que Miguel volteara a verla con cierta curiosidad, algo que lograba disimular muy bien. 

—Vamos, todo el mundo habla de eso — insistió Lyla mientras hacía que una de las pantallas de Miguel enfocara uno de los tantos pasillos, había un grupo de personas que hablaban, entre ellos, estaba Anya corazón y Elizabeth Brant, aunque T/N no  hablaba mucho con ellas, podía decir que tenían una forma curiosa de socializar.

—Yo te digo que no es mi culpa si Jhosep me prefiere a mi antes que a ti — habló una de las mujeres con confianza, haciendo que Elizabeth pusiera los ojos en blanco.

T/N intentó protestar de alguna manera al ver que estaban escuchando la conversación de algunas personas, pero el sonido de una bofetada hizo que se detuviera y prestará más atención, no quería admitirlo, quería saber qué más ocurría. 

Miguel por su parte, al escuchar el sonido del golpe volteó con cierta sorpresa en su mirada, solo para ver por medio de la pantalla como era que Anya había abofeteado a la mujer que había hablado sobre Jhosep. 

De pronto T/N y Miguel observaron la escena con mayor atención, era normal que no todos se llevaran de maravilla, pero nunca había llegado a la agresión. 

—Escúchame con atención, puedes ser amiga de Joseph tanto como quieras, pero él nunca te verá como algo más que eso, una amiga— habló Anya con enojo, mostrando un obvio tono ante la mujer. 

—Solo estas molesta de saber que tengo preferencia antes que tú — dijo la mujer mientras sobaba suavemente su mejilla enrojecida— Alguien que le rompió el corazón, haciendo lo mismo que hacen las mujeres con un pensamiento como el tuyo, llegando tarde y mintiendo.

Elizabeth mostró sorpresa ante esas palabras, no solo ella, Miguel y T/N también lo hicieron, sabían que Joseph había estado desanimado últimamente por una aparente decepción, pero saber que la causante había sido Anya solo hacía que las cosas tomaran otro sentido. 

La concentración de T/N se desvaneció al ver como Miguel tomaba el pedazo de empanada de entre sus manos y se lo comía. ¿Espera, en serio Miguel le había robado  la comida de las manos?

—¡Oye! — se quejó T/N, pero antes de que siguiera hablando Miguel lanzó una de sus telarañas jalando la bolsa de empanadas y dándole una nueva a T/N —No me gusta el camarón— se quejó, haciendo que Miguel pusiera los ojos en blanco mientras le daba otra empanada, está vez T/N aceptó la empanada, contenta y volvió a comer. 

—Esto está mal — murmuró T/N mientras veía cómo las mujeres empezaban a  pelear, naturalmente ambas mujeres eran increíblemente hábiles pero en ese punto la pelea parecía ridícula, incluso cómica, ambas se jalaban del cabello mientras intentaban derribarse.

— Tú no eres nadie para juzgarme — decía Anya mientras jalaba el cabello de la otra chica.

—Soy mejor que tú — contestaba la mujer mientras intentaba derribar a Anya.

Lo que hacía que la escena fuera divertida era como Elizabeth intentaba comunicarse con alguien a través del gizmo, pero ella aún no dominaba del todo la avanzada tecnología del gizmo, haciendo que Elizabeth les diera la espalda e hiciera muecas mientras apretaba varios botones. 

Al no poder conseguirlo empezó a ver alrededor, viendo nuevamente a las mujeres que seguían discutiendo ahora en el suelo.

—Esperen, traeré ayuda — fue lo único que Elizabeth  logró decir antes de correr por el pasillo, apenas habían pasado unos minutos cuando Elizabeth regresó diciendo “Camino equivocado”. 

T/N casi se atragantaba con la empanada, parecía la torpe escena de algún programa mal actuado.

—Error de cámara — dijo Lyla con una sonrisa. — Era ésta— contestó Lyla,ganándose una mirada de Miguel y T/N. Lyla cambió la imagen de la pantalla, está vez se mostraba otro pasillo, T/N observó como Hobie y Pavitr caminaban tranquilamente.

—Te digo que T/N y Miguel son muy cercanos —dijo Pavitr con una sonrisa, casi como si teorizar fuera tan emocionante como descubrir el mayor acertijo. —Yo digo que Miguel la ama.

Esta vez fue Miguel quien casi se atraganta al escuchar la seguridad con la que Pavitr hablaba. ¿En que se basan para creer eso? 

—¿Por qué? — preguntó Hobie.

—T/N es de las pocas personas que Miguel tolera, ¿has notado como Miguel considera las palabras de T/N?

Bien, era cierto, pero era porque de entre esa bola de imprudentes T/N tendía a ser la más racional al igual que Jessica. 

—No, yo creo que es T/N quien está enamorada de Miguel.

La despreocupación de Hobie hizo que T/N se mordiera la lengua al intentar protestar, soltando un pequeño chillido y dando un pequeño salto, haciendo que Miguel le diera unos pequeños y suaves golpecitos sobre la espalda para intentar calmarla.  

—Pero si fuera así T/N no tendría citas — comentó Pavitr. — Un amor no correspondido — aseguró. 

—Seguramente lo hace por celos — aseguró Hobie. —Ya sabes, eso que hacen las mujeres para poner celosos a los hombres que les gustan. 

Pavitr pareció pensar un poco acerca de eso. 

—¡No, eso no es cierto! — exclamó T/N con sus mejillas sonrojadas mientras veía la pantalla —Yo no tengo citas. 

Fue lo único que T/N dijo con rapidez, casi como si quisiera aclarar eso antes que cualquier otra cosa.

La sensación de vergüenza fue suficiente para  hacer que T/N desviara su mirada, incapaz de ver a Miguel. Eran solo amigos, es normal considerar lo que tus amigos te dicen, lo que piensan e incluso preocuparte por ellos, ¿no?

Entonces, ¿Cuál era la ventaja de las cámaras?
