Yeah I have decided to rewrite They Don't Know About Us. I'm going to be adding in Uta and then probably a bunch of stuff will change and would go by the original storyline of the fic before the reader vote. Pretty much, it's just going to be an entirely new fic of it's own, but does have a similar family dynamic.

So what I now have in mind:

Family Dynamic Changes: Rouge is still the daughter of Garp. I f'd up the ages in TDKAU so Rouge is actually OLDER than Dragon. Uta will be added into the mix of the kids of Shanks and Mihawk.

It won't follow any of the spin off one shots of We Are (Family)

Rouge isn't a WBP as long as she was before. She starts of as a Roger Pirate until later on around God Valley.

Shanks will be born on the Oro Jackson instead and raised on the ship. There will also be a certain event that will happen. He was still born in the West Blue.

The WBP do not form until after God Valley.

the backstories won't be individual like TDKAU but they are being rewritten and events will be changed from the original.

Rouge does NOT become the Second Division Commander of the Whitebeard Pirates (This is up for debate, I might end up changing my mind again xD)

Rouge will remain alive like in TDKAU, and eventually goes into hiding following Roger's execution.

The HUGE debate of wanting to add Shakky/Rayleigh having Mihawk as their son is there because why not xD highly unlikely I will do this.

Ace, Uta, and Luffy are all going to be biological siblings (Angel xD thank you for talking me into that xD)

Sabo will end up a member of the Revolutionary Army and the adoptive son of Dragon since well, Luffy isn't his son.

Ace and Luffy will still go by canon names.

Because of Garp, Shanks is believed to be an orphan that Roger and his nakama found.

Unlike TDKAU, pretty much everything following Marineford in the fic is going to be scraped and will not happen in this fic. Marineford will eventually happen in the fic as their get back together for the very very powerful family xD

Ace, Luffy, and Uta are all known for being on Shanks' ship but no one knows the biological connection.

I can't have an Ace fic without the Daddy Issues. Those still exist.

Rouge was born in the South Blue before her mother and father moved her to the East Blue where Dragon was eventually born. Ace is also once again born in the South Blue, Luffy in the East Blue, and Uta in the North Blue.

Unlike Film Red and the filler episodes, Uta is not left by Shanks or the Red Hair Pirates on Elegia. She does eventually leave the ship in pursuit of learning more about music. She is the only one of them to not have a bounty until much later.

The siblings are pretty close together in bonds. With the "death" of Sabo, it sparks Ace and Luffy getting closer.

more to come but I probably won't reveal it until the fic.

The fic's title: The World's Continuation

Worldbuilding of «Empress of the World», a guide, part II, the Empire of Old Valyria, part I — history and legend

A short (not so much) guide to the world of Empress of the World my Jonsa fan fiction AU in which Valyria never fell, and Jaehaerys is its emperor and Sansa finds her way to him as his concubine at first and wife/empress later and together they face a new challenges as their relationship mashes together cultures so different from each other; their relationship is inspired by many real life historical couples:

Octavian Augustus and his wife Livia 

Edward IV and Elizabeth Woodville 

Henry VII and Elizabeth of York

Suleyman and Hürrem Sultan 

Ahmed and Kösem Sultan

Now, without further ado, let's get into the world building.

[part I —› Westeros]

THE WORLD OF «EMPRESS OF THE WORLD»

People around the world believe the world to be flat — though in Yi’Ti as well as in the Isles of the Jade Sea they believe the world to be round — the story we read is focused on the western and the eastern continent, though the most eastern of countries are often named and part of the plot they are not the focus of this story (until now).

THE EMPIRE OF VALYRIA OF OLD

LEGEND AND HISTORY

The empire of Valyria of Old is the mightiest, most powerful, less isolational empire in the known world (the Golden Empire of Yi'Ti is possibly larger, but less known). Legend wants it that Azor Ahai fled from his old, powerful but falling city now forgotten with few companions and that he voyaged toward west bringing with him his Gods and his stories, but his voyage was long and exhausting and he voyaged in the darkness in the black peninsula of Valyria for years until all of hi companions had fallen and his Gods long forgotten as well, he left what remained of his people behind and begun the exploration. Azor Ahai found a lava river and followed it and its warmth, finding a valley nestled between smoking mountains filled with livestock. Then he started to ascension of the smoking, slumbering mountain alone and barefoot, the soles of his feet burning and the flesh of his hands blistering, praying to the forgotten Gods that they gave him strength.

The blood oozing from his burned body as he laid almost dying he made the last mile strengthening his resolve with words of his lost homeland and his ancient Gods took pity and pride on him and thus he reached the inside of the flaming mountain, a cave warm and filled of starlit gems and stones.

There a woman made of flame nursed him back to health, burning away his illness and thus building his resistance to the flames, after he was back in health he started to explore the cave and found there, laying ready to be hatched the first dragons eggs.

He nurtured them and called forth from them the first dragons, when the dragon was big enough to spout fire he used that fire to create from the iron of a falling star a magnificent blade, but that was not enough and thus he had settled near the fourteen flames and when the time had come and his blade had broken against the shadow he had forged one anew in the fire of his wife’s soul and he had banished the shadow from all lands.

He then had cremated his wife’s corpse and had dispersed the ashes where he founded his city, the tomb lacked tombstone but for one inscription which said enemies of the dragon beware and tremble, this is Valyria as that had been his wife's maiden name.

Most probably the valyrians voyaging from the east found respite in Valyria a peninsula flourishing and inhabited until then and there they settled; in their explorations they might have found the dragons eggs and learned to call the dragons from within, changing from shepherds to dragonriders and their whole culture changed within it.

They founded Valyria and the first few colonies — Oros and Tyria as well as Elyria and Tolos — but soon they clashed with the, then ancient, Empire of Ghis as they moved further into their territory.

Five wars ensued between the then best known military force in the east and the small, apparently unassuming Valyrian Freehold.

FIRST GHISCARI WAR (8000 years ago, immediately after the Long Night)

The first one was fought over the ancient ghiscari colony of Velos.

The city of Ghozai, the portual-detachement of Velos, in the same island facing the Gulf of Grief, had sent for help to free themselves of the commercial taxes the Ghiscari Empire had settled on them and the Valyrians moved their dragons eastward to Ghozai, which they freed in less than a day as the city opened their door to the valyrians and bent the knee becoming the first ever colony annexed to the Freehold, the valyrians then sacrificed the tax collectors sent by the ghiscari to their old God, Syrax.

But the Ghiscari having heard of the betrayal of Ghozai sent their famed troops and legions to Velos convinced to use the city as a military camp to march war against the valyrians. It proved fruitless as the valyrians used scarcely ten dragons — loosing three dragon riders and one dragon — during the battle completely obliterating the ghiscaring legions and thus conquering the whole island under their banner.

SECOND GHISCARI WAR (around 7800 years ago)

The Kingdom of Sarnor was a collection of independent state-cities along the shores of the Shivering Sea, flourishing and independent, but too close to both potencies to be left alone and soon enough they were drawn into their conflict.

Instead of bending to the Ghiscari, the kingdom of Sarnor preferred the valyrians, who held the distinction of accepting and implementing the Sarnori gods and customs into their layered society — whilst instead the Ghiscari defied every God and custom their colonies had before them.

In this war the valyrian used one hundred dragon riders and lost thirty riders and 4 dragons. The ghiscari troops were obliterated though one of the dead was the chief general of the Freehold.

Between the second and the third ghiscari war both empires were spreading around the known world, coming in conflict more often than not.

THIRD GHISCARI WAR (around 7260 years ago)

This time point of contention were the Basilisk Isles in the Summer Sea. Both the valyrians and the ghiscari had interest in the area but the ghiscari founded their colony, Gorgai in one of the biggest of the Basilisk Isles, and the city stood for between three hundred and four hundred years before full war broke.

The Sarnori again fought beside Valyria and its might and against the ghiscari. This time though over a five hundred of dragon riders were used during the campaign, thought this time ninety dragons were lost and another forty wounded as the ghiscari had implemented into their lines the wheeled—scorpions with which they could bring down from the sky a dragon.

Still Gorgai was conquered and its name changed into Gogosso the first valyrian colony so south, facing the northern coast of Sothoryos, the southern continent.

Whilst the valyrian chief general was brought down from the sky, his second in command after the initial defeat, on foot, managed to fight his way to a wounded dragon on the battlefield and staving off the attacks from the foot soldiers of the ghiscari. He managed to slain all the foot soldiers near the dragon, free it of its chains and bond with it after having lost his own. They took flight together and together they brought down the might of Valyria over the ghiscari legions.

He was a Taemor, who later would marry and take the name of his wife, Aella Targaryen and their son, Aegon, is considered the founder of House Targaryen, which thus can trace their lineage back to the now extinct House Taemor which was one of the most ancients families of Valyria.

Between the third and the fourth ghiscari war the Free Hold of Valyria reached the peak of its republican phase, and not much later than a hundred years after the end of the third ghiscari war did the Senate reach the greatest number of senators it ever held, reaching also peak corruption. The centuries between 7030 and 6730 saw three long excruciating civil wars which started the Time of the Hundred lusters of the tyrants, in which tyrant after tyrant ruled over Valyria.

FOURTH GHISCARI WAR (around 5022 years ago)

Fought after the end of Time of the Hundred lusters when Valyria had returned to a semblance of political peace, this saw the Sarnori divided, several kings supported the valyrians while several others supported the ghiscari. This time the point of contention was the city of Zamettar the only ghiscari colony on the northern shores of Sothoryos.

The city was taken and completely destroyed and left in ruin by the valyrians and a good portion of the ghiscari troops fled the battle fight when they saw the new armors of dragon steel that the valyrians had fit over the dragon's most exposed and less defended place, their underbelly, making their wheeled-scorpions almost unusable.

FIFTH GHISCARI WAR (8044 since the funding of Valyria, SFV)

This time the valyrians headed straight to the neck as they attacked Ghis and its fortifications. Four thousands dragons — an improbable number and exaggerated — was used against the city with no intention of sacking. The valyrians were intent only in destroying the city.

The brick walls that had been standing for over four thousand years were razed to the ground, the ghiscari slain, burning the city, the streets, the temples and the townhouses in dragonflame. The fields were sowed in salt, lime and skull so that nothing could ever grow again.

In the aftermath those who were not slain were enslaved and died at the hands of their valyrian captors; the domains of Ghis were annexed to the Free Hold of Valyria and the ghiscari became part of the empire of Valyria without being graced with the citizenship.

Their temples were razed, the statues of their gods stolen and their pyramids brought down from the peak down until only bumps of the founding remained.

After having destroyed the ghiscari empire, the Free Hold of Valyria became the mightiest of the empires in Essos, though older and larger empires stood eastern still — Yi'Ti — northern — in the northern continent — and in the southern continent.

THE AGE OF THE HUNDRED LUSTERS (8080—8592 SFV)

Circa forty years since the end of the ghiscari wars, Valyria found itself unfolding on a series of civil wars and rebellions from the border regions. In time of strife and military need it was custom a tyrant was named to confront the military urgency and bring Valyria back in order. Due the peculiar situation — wars in within and without the borders — the time of charge of the tyrant passed from one year to five years.

This time, in which Valyria faced enemies from within and without its border, was characterized by the Rebellions of the Faith; in fact since learning how to tame the dragons the valyrians had grown scornful and contemptuous about the Gods and had stopped acting to avoid their ire following morals sets only by their bloodlust and ambition and believing themselves to be equal to Gods. And whilst this was a common sentiment between dragonlords, the small folk still practiced sacrifices and chants, hymn and prayers.

The old valyrian gods were laid to the side forgotten by almost anyone but the dragonlords, and a new god coming from the shadowlands of Asshai became the primary source of comfort and faith for the small folk as its priests and priestesses were capable of incredible miracles and could foresee the futures in the flames, enough to predict the coming of a dark Messiah, Azor Ahai reborn to bring back order to the world and save it from the Endless Shadow and Cold One.

Its priest and priestesses viewed with distaste the dragonlords' contempt towards the Gods and led a series of revolts, the biggest one happened during 8324 SFV, when the High Council that had taken the place of the corrupted Senate, banished Aenar Targaryen from Valyria after he tried to led a political coup against the elected tyrant before the end of his mandate as the high priest had predicted that from his line would be born the savior of Valyria.

This revolts led by the fanatics of R'hllor was a type of threat Valyria had never faced before as the threat of dragon flame used against them did nothing to dissuade the rebels, who believed that death by fire was the purest of them all.

By the end of 8339 Aenar Targaryen was invited back to Valyria and was offered a permanent seat in the High Council to appease to the demands of the rebels despite their less than noble birth as the Targaryens were neither ancient, nor the wealthiest of the Houses, thought they could claim descent from a princess that had come with Azor Ahai from the eastern crumbling empire and had become his second wife through marriage.

For five hundred years one tyrant replaced another in the primal seat of the High Council.

THE DOOM OF VALYRIA (8765 — 8779 SFV)

In 8765 the daughter of the Head of House Targaryen, lady Daenys Targaryen dreamed about a terrible fate impending on the greatest Free Hold of the world. She dreamed of clouds of red smoke raining dragonglass and of rivers of lava flooding the valleys, of hills exploding and towers of flames rising to touch the stars. Aegon Targaryen, her father, believed her and led his whole line and family to Dragonstone a smoking island across the Narrow Sea where he ordered the building of a new keep to house his line, and commanded his vassals Houses — Celtigar and Velaryon — to do the same.

He named his pregnant daughter lady of Dragonstone and left her to oversee the building of the keep as he led her brother-husband into a search of a possible way to avoid the Doom she had dreamed of. As they voyaged Aegon managed to gather the allegiance of many more Houses as Daenys governed from Dragonstone and had given birth to an infant son, whom she named as his father and her brother-husband, Gaemon.

In the first months of 8779 SFV several hills exploded in the countryside around Valyria and Oros; Aegon Targaryen had worked tirelessly to mine dragonglass and forge assemble-able dams. Of the Fourteen Flames only four did explode and sent flames into the stars and made dragonglass rain on their heads, destroying the crops; the other ten were mined by the valyrians and thanks to a series of tunnels carved in the side of mountains and the flood of lava was directed thanks to the assemble-able dams of dragonglass into rivers that destroyed what little of the crops the dragonglass rain had spared, but avoiding the worst of it. In his voyages Aegon had also learned that ashes from a smoking mountain could make the land more fertile if they planted their seeds thus he instructed the landowners to have their slaves work the land following those instructions he had learned to have the crop grow again. The rivers of lava that flow in the capitol and other cities of the peninsula are the result of the tireless work to avoid the Doom.

Aegon Targaryen who had been sent by the dragonlords to his Dragonstone as a coward, was welcomed back in Valyria as a savior and in triumph and organized incredible games to celebrate the death of his son in the successful attempt to avoid the Ninth Flame exploded.

THE RISE OF GAEMON TARGARYEN (8885 — 8898 SFV)

In the last month of 8885 since the funding of Valyria prime achor Aegon Targaryen was assassinated by his political enemies. His daughter and lady of Dragonstone — who had claimed for herself the title of princess of Valyria — hastened to reach Valyria leaving her nine and ten years old son in charge of Dragonstone.

As Aegon Targaryen's heir apparent, princess Daenys Targaryen became prime achor pro tempore, as she incarcerated those of the assassins of her father who had not managed to flee the city. After the grieving period she celebrated her father's death with magnificent games at which it's said that all small folk wore the black robes of grieving to honor the savior of Valyria.

After forty days from the death finally Aegon Targaryen's will was opened by princess Daenys and his second in command, Aurion of House Daelyon. But, instead of naming as heir in his various charges his daughter and his commander, he named to them all his nineteen years old grandson, whom he named also prince of Valyria thus making of him Daenys' heir to Dragonstone beyond the word of a woman and thus legally making him the new Head of House Targaryen.

Princess Daenys thus brokered a peace between the spurned Aurion (who had been considered the only possible candidate for heir to Aegon Targaryen since he was pluritriumphant and well known and also in the prime of his career at 34, and her son who had been considered the least probable candidate to the charges of prime achor Aegon Targaryen as he was the young and untested grandson who had spent most of his life away from Valyria; all to dispose of the enemies and assassins who had managed to flee the capitol and the death sentence for their crimes.

Together Gaemon and Aurion managed to close in on the enemies, and the troops that had been Aegon's divided between his grandson and named heir and his commander and right hand, with whom they had already served; though many recognized in young Gaemon his father, who had been Aegon's son and whose sacrifice and bravery as well as skill had saved Valyria.

Gaemon though, was not only an intelligent and clever dragonlord as brave on land as airborne, he was also a master politician — which he had learned from his mother, who had overseen her father's countless acquaintances and political liaisons as her father governed from Valyria — who, after the enemies of his grandfather were disposed of, managed to isolate further Aurion Targaryen whose ambition led him to set aside his lawful wife — his own sister — to marry the wealthiest and noblest of women of Old Valyria, a woman who, it was said, descended directly from Azor Ahai and his first wife, Nissa Nissa, and who had a great deal of influence in the eastern provinces.

Gaemon instead, aged twenty and four, as per custom married his sister, Visenya as soon as she flowered and celebrated the marriage with imposing games for which he paid from his own purse and sired from her a child whom he called Daenys to honor his mother — as the princess of Valyria was beloved by the people of the Free Hold — and later a son he named Aegon for his grandfather betrothing them as per custom.

When, in the eastern provinces, Aurion rose on his dragon and had his wife crown him Emperor of all Valyrians the troops broke off, some followed him as the eastern provinces were the wealthiest and his wife claimed descent from Nissa Nissa; but others disparaged his attempt to destroy the status quo that had made of them as shepherds to the greatest conquerors of the known world and flew to Gaemon's side.

The battle saw opposed thousands of dragonlords and it was fought in the valley that hosted the city of Faros and prince Gaemon Targaryen managed to outsmart Aurion and his thousand dragonlords, he captured the man and demanded he bend the knee and relinquished his ambition to a throne that did not exist, pardoned those who had supported him as long as they bent the knee — killed those who didn't, but pardoned their children, sisters and wives unless they proved treacherous — and that Aurion took back his lawful sister-wife he had set aside.

Aurion refused thus Gaemon executed him with the very same sword that since has been considered the sword of Valyria, and the ancestral sword of the emperor of the world. Gaemon returned triumphant in Valyria, though he showed himself grieving for the great commander and friend he had, had to execute and their brothers as per custom and took hold of the series of political offices his grandfather had left him making of them a singular one he called prince of all Valyria as defender of the true customs and head of the entire empire, an emperor without calling himself so.

He governed for over sixty years with his beloved wife at his side, Visenya, and left his post to his son, Aegon, once he died installing the Targaryen dynasty.

AEGON THE DRAGON, EMPEROR OF VALYRIA AND LORD OF THE WORLD (9033 — 9070 SFV)

A century after the rise of Gaemon Targaryen, in 8996 SFV, from prince Aerion Targaryen and his wife, Valaena Velaryon, was born a babe who'd grow to become the first emperor of Valyria.

Aegon Targaryen was known to ride one of the mightiest dragons of all Valyria, Balerion the Black Dread, who his great-grandfather had rode in life during his conquests in the southern continent.

In 9027 Aegon, aged 31, became the new prince of all of Valyria; he already had two children, two sons, to his name — Aenys born of his favored sister-wife, Rhaenys; and Maegor, born of Visenya his sister-wife — since he had been a young boy, aged 16, and bonded with Balerion he had promised them he'd made them queens of Valyria.

He started by slowly disposing of all the opposition of House Targaryen and making the priests of the Old Valyrian Faith name him High Pope of the old valyrian religion. He, posing as the god Syrax, and his wives as his ancient unnamed goddess-wives celebrated great games and annexed new colonies and provinces in the Sothoryos. His wife, Rhaenys was a benefactor of all artists whilst his other wife, Visenya, was known to be a terrific warrior and to dabble in the dark arts. Together they conquered several new provinces and returned in triumph every time.

In 9033 after having conquered Zabhad and returning with thousands of slaves in triumph Aegon closed himself in prayer for various days and celebrated many a sacrifice as the red priests and priestesses testified the Targaryens were the saviors of Valyria and that from their line would be born Azor Ahai once again to then name himself Emperor of all valyrians and Lord of the World.

Aegon tried and failed to conquer Dorne in the South of the Lands of Sunset, and his wife, Rhaenys died whilst she battled against the dornish, who shot her dragon down from the skies.

Aegon was anguished but instead of moving all of his dragonlords to the continent he chose peace, as the dornish claimed they had Rhaenys still alive whilst on the cusp of death and suffering terribly, they offered to be merciful towards his empress and take her life from her if he left them alone.

Aegon did, Visenya did not. She burned Dorne to the ground but the dornish are nothing if not resilient and after she turned her back to Dorne believing them subjugated they broke free of the valyrians by killing every governor they sent to them without leaving proof.

HOUSE TARGARYEN DURING THE EVENTS OF «EMPRESS OF THE WORLD»

The events of “Empress of the World” starts around 9345 SFV, circa, when emperor Rhaegar Targaryen dies. His only son and named heir, prince Jaehaerys Targaryen, governor of Tyria — the province the emperors granted to the named heir to the throne — accepts the sword of the Lord of the World and flies to Valyria to take his throne.

A short civil war ensues between emperor Jaehaerys III — accepted by the high council — and his uncle, Viserys Targaryen governor of Meereen, during which Jaehaerys atop his dragon, Maelys the Great — the oldest, meanest and mightiest dragon of all Valyria, whom he bonded with as a boy — wins the war and kills his uncle. Before the events of the story, Jaehaerys already sedated a revolt and died, but was reborn in his dragon's flame, since then he's called Master of Death.

The story revolves around his story with Sansa of House Stark, the hidden princess of House Stark who fled Winterfell after House Bolton and Karstark betrayed her father the king, hiding in Bear Island and by chance captured by a valyrian raid; of how they meet, fall in love and move in between political choices, moral choices, conquest and rule as an emperor and his empress and the ascension of Sansa from befallen princess, to captured slave, to concubine, to mother of the prince and favorite, to legal wife and empress.

At the time of the story House Targaryen is composed of:

Rhaegar Targaryen (deceased) — previous emperor, Jaehaerys father

Aegon Targaryen (deceased) — prince of Valyria, Jaehaerys older brother, died young before the birth of Jaehaerys

Elia Martell (deceased) — consort of Rhaegar Targaryen, mother of Aegon and Rhaenys, died shortly after Jaehaerys birth

Lyanna Karstark — the Mother of the Emperor, lady Mother of Valyria of Old, the head of the female court of the Emperor and the previous favorite and concubine of Emperor Rhaegar Targaryen

Jaehaerys III Targaryen — the emperor of Valyria of Old, lord of Valyria and Tyria, the Master of Death, the Noble father and Liberator of Braavos and New Ghis

Rhaenys Targaryen — princess of Valyria, lady of Dragonstone (until the birth of a possible female to Jaehaerys) and lady of Oros and Elyria, prime achor of Valyria

Daenerys Targaryen — princess of Valyria, lady of Meereen and its governor, previous lady of Dragonstone (as an infant) until the birth of Rhaenys Targaryen; sister to the previous emperor

Viserys Targaryen (deceased) — uncle to emperor Jaehaerys; previous husband of Daenerys Targaryen. Tried to steal the throne from Jaehaerys.

Sansa of House Stark — queen claimant to the North, Lady Favorite to Jaehaerys III Targaryen, the Flamekeeper of Valyria of Old, the Noble Mother.

Jacaerys Brandon Targaryen — prince of Valyria of Old, prince to Tyria and Winterfell, heir to Valyria and to the North.

WOW there was rly no other mention of figarland in film red and op wikis article hasn’t updated w 1086 so i had to go back and brush over to see where it was

after skimming the back half okay i have. new perspective ONE is that garland isn’t stated to be a world noble which i assumed the first time. he’s head of the knights and given a position of power in the holy land, obviously, if he can judge world nobles so freely (like.. enough to sentence one to death) and he does look like he’s in a position of power and knows it, like he gives off that air. but it’s not a stuck-up born-with-it air like other celestials

and then i realized that hes the former king of god valley, like in a very recent less-than-100-yrs-ago type. and uta was speculated to be a figarland after her relations w shanks were revealed.

at first i thought it would make sense, then, how shanks has gotten away with so much. (back when i thought garland was a celestial) that it explains why he was able to stop the war, and why sengoku said ‘because it’s you, i’ll allow it’ bc he didn’t rly have a choice in allowing it. that him seeing the elder planets was kinda like how mingo leveraged and weaponized his knowledge of the holy land. because it’s you, they said. and it would make sense, because shanks could have been born a celestial dragon but if he was found at god valley as a baby, or was placed on the oro jackson or w/e a la uta and the red-haireds, then he would grow up a pirate despite his heritage, but obviously if he would out then no one could deny him such. they sit at the top of the world for a reason

and then i backed off bc i realized it didn’t outright say garland was a world noble anywhere. so now my connection of shanks is coming from the god valley collection, and more in particular, the final words he says. on surface level he’s referring to mjosgard, but this is oda and nothing is ever only surface level. so if we are juxtaposing with shanks, then garland’s words surely are meant to be a foreshadowing. either into his character or shanks’. it really got me thinking on who shanks talked with the elder planets abt. luffy, or teach? but then, also, maybe roger? maybe rocks?? like, was he talking about a future problem, or something from the past coming to light instead????

anyone that protects scum is worse than scum themselves. my first thought immediately went to luffy. if we’re meant to tie garland in w shanks, and taking his words as some sort of future foreshadowing, and going off the assumption that shanks is going to be different bc god valley wasn’t around when he was growing up, then it’s gotta be him doing just that. like it’s gotta be more than snide words to mjosgard. maybe it’s abt shanks’ whole character, since 1076 (which i went back n glanced at to see if figarland was mentioned - nope) revealed that the crews under shanks’ fleet are kinda wishy-washy, and they joke abt protection money. shanks having so many common ppl -pirates no less- under him that can’t fend for themselves would be a good indicator in regards to what garland said. like i can see him saying that abt shanks. but, again, i can also see him saying that abt luffy. (i can also see it inadvertently coming back around to affect sanji, if the two ever interact, as yet another form of sanji rejecting his royal blood. but i digress-)

something abt god valley is going to be startlingly impt very quickly. its almost definitely been hit w an island-wiping beam like lulusia was, to have vanished like that in that manner of speaking (how sengoku warded others from investigating on their own and jus listening to him) and how the elder planets referred to lulusia in the original chapter it was blown to bits (a very different perspective this time around!!!! intriguing and eye-opening, rly wanna know where the nerona family lived before moving to the holy land. it couldn’t have been mother flame that did in god valley tho, or at least not whatever version they used on lulusia, since they talked abt it like they were testing a prototype. maybe they did have an ancient weapon at one point, and this is vp’s man-made counter to it like the blueprints franky had were the countermeasure to pluton?? vp took research on the void century from ohara over 20 yrs ago, and god valley vanished over 40, so if he (and therefore a rogue stella) found out a way to counter an ancient weapon, it would have to be after both. meaning the method of eliminating god valley and lulusia is similar but not the exact same, like an imitation

i wonder if god valley wraps all the way around, actually, bc roger and garp teamed up to protect celestial dragons. figarland is a judge onto the celestials in present day. the elder planets are partial to shanks, and garp views all celestials as scumbags (a la his convo w stelly) and dragon’s goal was to declare war specifically on the celestials. ik luffy’s mother has got to be impt, but i am starting to buy into his mother or grandmother being a world noble less and less, the more these egghead chapters reveal. garp and dragon just aren’t framed as having any partiality among celestial dragons. you would think if dragon met someone, that even if something terrible happened and they were judged by god’s knights, that dragon would take to heart that not all world nobles are bad (like we’ve been seeing w/ various donquixotes since the timeskip) and reconsider what he wants. but he doesn’t, so it doesn’t make sense for that to have happened. garp is the same way, and has been portrayed as such by his refusal to take an admiral slot since he made his debut in the manga. 

but god valley fits into the puzzle somewhere, and shanks is the missing piece to something. like somehow, someone got a baby shanks aboard the oro jackson. was it garp, after the fighting w rocks was over and his guard duty was essentially done?? was it someone else at the time, either a celestial (mother???) or a former resident of god valley? i guess we technically don’t know when garland retired to the holy land, so god valley could have not been a kingdom for many many years prior to the roger+garp vs rocks crew showdown. but both of them being there and teaming up makes me think it has to do with shanks, or shanks was a result and/or consequence of such. and the garp connection makes me think there’s a dragon connection, too. there’s 16 yrs between shanks and dragon. if dragon happened to be a former marine, would he have been there? did he have something to do with shanks being looked after by roger’s crew?

and then i am. tepidly circling around the idea that shanks could be tied to luffy’s mother, somehow. if oda is setting up shanks and garland to be opposites or foils or something, and if garland’s final words are a reference to shanks and luffy in the future, then? ??????????? idk. i think comparing shanks and luffy wouldn’t be far off either, especially if there’s a hidden middle man tying them closer together. like they don’t have to be related, that’s not necessarily what i’m getting at. but it would be very interesting if luffy’s mother had something to do with nobility tied so closely to the world nobles.

Desert Spiny Lizard - May 2023 There are lizards all over the place here at Catalina State Park. They scurry across the paths as you approach and dive into the grass when you get too close. The little ones are extremely fast. Bigger ones, like this Desert Spiny Lizard (Sceloporus magister) which I saw on the Oro Valley Bike Trail, move a little slower. They are still usually out of sight by the time I can get a good image, but this particular one let met get close enough to zoom in for a pretty good image. MWM

Sociology Talk with Lia

Today I'm going to talk about how 3 sociological concepts which I see work in my life :)

Sociological Imagination: During the first and second modules in this course, we were focusing on a sociological concept called Sociological Imagination. According to the book, Durkheim also believed that social integration, or the strong bonds that people have with their social groups, are a key aspect of social life (Griffiths, Keirns, 2015) As a result of this concept, I was able to think about how society and culture play a role in my daily life in a more in-depth way. As a result of this concept, I have developed a new perspective on society as a whole. The influences of religion, family, and friends have a great deal of impact on my mind. My social circle has a way of persuading me to take sides on issues that are relevant to me, depending on whom I am surrounded by. As soon as I recognize that there is a specific situation in my life holding me back from achieving a bigger goal, I must reset all my preconceived notions about that situation and see it for what it is. If an elderly individual says something to me that I find unkind, I must put my anger aside in order to see their perspective in order to be able to solve the problem.

Social Change: According to the book, Sociologists define social change as changes in human interactions and relationships that transform social institutions. This can be a minor or drastic change in an individual's life. Life is constantly changing which has an impact on our lives. For example, I live with Type one diabetes which causes every day to look differently regarding my health. My life is constantly changing which I need to adapt towards. I must look at the social facts rather than looking or focusing on my biased opinions. Another example can be the Covid 19 social change where the whole world was in lockdown. This caused me to decide to attend my junior year fully online while others attended in person. This was a huge social change for everyone. Society changed as a whole when stores would be closed which caused everyone to be inside 24/7. Social changes can be personal and small or broad and as a whole society but it’s still classified as a social change. 

Social Mobility leads to a change in their social status relative to one’s current social location in society. This is a movement of people or a population of society. For example, In my life, I had to change elementary schools because of a move. Although I was still living in Oro Valley, this is still a social mobility change. I had to move from the friends which whom I would have play dates and grew up. I had to make and meet new friends which was a challenge for younger me. I was the quieter child so this move was a change for me. This was a both downside and an upside because it changed me mentally. Socially, I became quieter due to the uncomfortableness but in time I became myself. The culture and community allowed me to feel that comfort in a place of change and uncertainty. 

These concepts have helped me realize society as a whole and how different each individual is. We are all in the same society rather we come from different places, races, or ethnicities. It is important to use these concepts and live life to the fullest by showing love and kindest to all. I believe we must take time to meet people and learn how to effectively communicate with each other. Society is constantly changing but you can see patterns if you research and observe societies.

"Move Mabini; A Story of Progress"

The municipality of Mabini was created on May 28, 1953 by the virtue of Executive Order No. 596 of President Elpidio Quirino. Mabini is formerly known as Cuambog that is named after a tree species of the family Dilleniaceae then renamed as Doña Alicia after former President's wife Alicia Syquia was killed. It was later renamed in honor of the revolutionary leader Apolinario Mabini in 1954. Mabini is a coastal municipality in the province of Davao de Oro. Mabini is subdivided into 11 barangays which are the Cadunan, Pindasan, Cuambog, Tagnanan, Anitapan, Cabuyuan, Del Pilar, Libodon, Golden Valley, Pangibiran and San Antonio.

Mabini is a 2nd-class municipality in the province of Davao de Oro. In the last years, by the lead of the former mayor Reynaldo Dayanghirang we have seen the continuous progress and development of Mabini. From the infrastructure projects like the four infrastructure project for the two Sitioa Manasa and Mascareg consisting of a fully furnished Brgy. Health Center, Installation of Riprap, Steel Bridge and Sitil Electricification. An additional two infrastructure project for Brgy. Anitapan the solar street lights and multi-purpose building and road projects. However, last May 9, 2022 Mayor Dayanghiranf lost the position to Mayor Emerson Luego. Mayor Emerson Luego won the People's heart by his campaign and tagline "Move Mabini". Mayor Emerson or most known as Mayor "MM" started the fulfill his campaigns and made his move to develop and make a much better municipality.

Since Mayor Emerson Luego was elected as mayor of the Municipality of Mabini, there have been improvements in the municipality. Mayor Emerson has implemented numerous projects to improve the quality of life of the people living in Mabini. Mayor Emerson had built few establishments to improve the municipality's economy like building a tourist spot, the "Mabini Mountain Ridge" or the "Bikers Camp" the Food Hub and Snack Hub that made people from other municipalities go to Mabini. There also have been a series of graveling work and road repairs, road concreting and revetment/flood control project to the remote areas and barangays who needs it making it easier for the people living there. Many programs were made to preserve the Municipality's environment. At September 21, 2022 the Local Government of Mabini led by Mayor Emerson and DENR Davao de Oro spearheaded the clean up drive at densely populated Brgy. Cuambog and joined the International Coastal Clean up in Mabini Protected Landscape and Seascape. During " Bisita Kadagatan" on July 23, 2022, Mayor Emerson vowed to actively support programs, projects and policies that would lead to the betterment of the protected areas in Mabini. The municipality also participated in some tree planting activities. In terms of agriculture, the Municipal Agriculture Office conducted basic practices and services which Tilapia/ Livestock Seminar, Vegetable Distribution, and BCIC Farmer Insurance. There has been a great progress on people's well-being and welfare as Mayor Emerson creates programs that would be a great help for citizens like "Oplan Ligtas sa Pamayanan" a program by Bureau of Fire Protection, Pre-marriage Orientation, Counseling Seminar, Medical Mission Activities, Housing Programs and many more.

We really can see the increasing progress of Mabini from the newly built municipal office and plaza to the improved infrastructures, better access to education, better access to health services, and clean water. Due to the programs, campaigns, projects, and efforts of the people involved it successfully improved the people's lives and have increased the development and progress of the municipality.

reading about my competition, I believe me strength is that there is not no local cleaning service that will clean you boat accuse cottage. Some of the competition cleans in cottage country areas, this meaning that I may lose out on some customers that are road accuse. By offering boat accuse cottage cleaning this will open a new window of customers, because there is no other cleaning service that does that. 

I believe my current weakness is not having any social platform. My competitors all have social platforms and a media account, I need to be able to create something that can compete with my competitors.
