Saw a photo of these three and just HAD to redraw them as my fav trio! Easily one of my best (of most fun) portraitures yet!!
Aragorn, Legolas, and Gimli are among my most beloved characters in literature and it was so satisfying to finally work up the skill to illustrate them. Their fun, adventurous dynamic has had a positive impact on my life and I’m glad to draw them.

For once the teaser tagline isn't a lie "The legend has come to life"...
Is there really a better trilogy since this one?

Here's the new single from my album Javelin. Video animated by Stephen Halker. “Will Anybody Ever Love Me?” More info here.
THANK YOU.
Quick background about the video: my friend Stephen Halker took elements from the album art that I made (collage, paper arts, paintings etc.) and incorporated them into these really wild CGI fantasy landscapes that he created. He sent me some notes about his process and approach that I thought were really cool, if you're interested.
From Stephen:
"This is what I was really thinking about when i made this video:
It's like walking into someone's soul. First they put up these facades that look normal, but then you find out how messy they are.
  I wanted it to start out super normal and cultivated. a landscape made flat by the machinations of an agrarian society.
  Then a nice walk through a forest. nothing special. but more wild
  Then the expanse of a grand canyon.... but you go, "hey what's that thing on the ground? Is that supposed to be there?
  The grasslands are when you start to see curated memories. clean circles of thoughts.  Everything is still manageable, manicured, controlled.  but what's that on the horizon.  looks like there's some bigger thoughts buried in those grassy north dakotan buttes.
  Then comes the chorus.  You gotta mix it up for the chorus.  This scene is called darklands in my computer.  I made the hexagons to reference Carrie and Lowell.  i thought of this structure as if it was the longings of the heart. this sort of plinth of idols. Starting with the starlet from the "Will anybody ever love me" page of the booklet.  Then transferring that longing to archetype.... then parents, family, friends,  the love of the masses...
Once you know this much about someone, the rest of it is just is just a continuation of craziness. I wanted to morph from contained circles toward individual cut out shapes.
  moving through different corridors and memories.
  Obsessing over one memory.
  Building towers of meaning, trying to make sense of moments events through repetition and fortification.
Second chorus was supposed to recall some of the previous scenes.  the wheat, the Planet, travelling through the same hexagons, but this time they aren't filled with icons. just patterns.
  you travel through the puffy paint wormhole into a less tethered version of the self.
  No more landscape. just a repetition of memories.  The world has fallen away.
 I've always loved phyllotaxis and golden sections. they feel very.... "this goes on forever"-y.
  The image of your face split in half, thrown into this fibonacci sequence reminded me of your "perpetual self" song from avalanche (which has always stuck with me)
  There's a floor again. but now it's just the triangle and tape patterns. illuminated.
 Flip to the image of Katrina under the owl was giving off a strong "athena" vibe.  Goddess of wisdom, craft, warfare.  She could make sense of my warring emotions.
End scene."

The Lord of the Rings.
As far as trilogies go, you would be hard-pressed to improve on Peter Jackson's quite frankly immaculate #lord of the rings movies. So much has been said about them that it is hard to know where to begin, or indeed say anything that hasn't been said before. The internet loves the word iconic, and with good reason, but each one of these films—The Fellowship of the Ring, The Two Towers, and Return of the King—have as strong a claim to such an adjective as any. Perhaps the best compliment one can pay to the monumental cast and crew behind these behemoths is that they represent what is likely the outstanding cinematic achievement of our lifetimes. And they did so by, famously, filming the unfilmable.
With much talk on the future of the cinema-going experience in the age of streaming services, perhaps no movies better demonstrate the magic of the big screen experience like #LOTR. It is a fact that all in Tumblr's Tolkien community can remember vividly the first time they saw each of these films in the cinema. It was an experience that, somehow, turned three hours and more into a time that passed in an instant—and created an immersive, vivid fantasy world that no-one wanted to leave. 
We really could go on and, indeed, we'd love to. But time is of the essence, and though a wizard is indeed never late, this post, like The Grey Pilgrim himself, arrives precisely when it means to. In any case, there is a whole #lord of the rings fandom community out there on Tumblr who loves these movies every bit as much as we do, if not more so. They also love the books, too—and know more than a thing or two about Tolkien's enchanting Middle Earth.
You shall not pass (oh go on then) x

Hi there, I hope everyone is enjoying their time with SotO! Next week will be the first Saturday of a new month, which means it'll be time for another art party hosted by my guild, Verdant Shield [VS]! This time around, in honor of SotO's release, we'll be having our little celebration on the cliffs above Garrenhoff in Kessex Hills!
For those who haven't heard of art parties before, they're an idea carried over from Final Fantasy XIV - in-game get-togethers for artists/writers/creatives of all types to hang out, chat, and create together! Put your most iconic look together, find someone who inspires you, and create! Afterwards, everyone posts their creations in a shared tag (ours is #VSArtParty) so others can see, interact, and share! There's no off-site location for these posts, since the idea is to encourage community creativity and interaction! Simply put: the 'goal' of an art party isn't to be drawn, but to draw others, and share with the community!
Details for location and time are in the above image, but I'll also post them as well as /squadjoin information below the cut!
Location:
I had originally wanted to scout out SotO locations (specifically a certain new outpost hub area), but considering I do still want to keep things F2P accessible, I figured the next best thing would be the former resting place of everyone's favorite mysterious Wizard's Tower, Garrenhoff! But to avoid interfering with people coming and going for story, we'll be sitting in the strawberry patch on the cliffs overlooking it! Head Southeasterly from Cereboth Waypoint and you'll find yourself in the right place pretty easily!
Tumblr media
Time & Squad Details:
As is customary, the party will consist of two separate events with an hour in between, though people do tend to hang out a bit before/after as well!
The first party will be on EU servers and begin at 9pm Central European Summer Time (aka 3pm Eastern Daylight Time or 5 hours before in-game reset). I’ll be hosting on my EU alt account, so to join either /squadjoin or whisper Ashelin Falstaff for an invite.
The second party will be on NA servers and begin at 7pm Eastern Daylight Time (aka 1am Central European Summer Time or 1 hour before in-game reset). This one I’ll be hosting on my main account, so to join either /squadjoin or whisper Teekzi for an invite.
Closing Words:
No location poll for this month because I wanted to break away from the normal locations and pick out a SotO-appropriate one instead! Going forward if there's a festival or some other key event going on, then a location relevant to that will override the usual location polls, but I'll very likely keep things F2P-friendly even so!
I'm eternally thankful for everyone who comes out to these events and makes them so memorable! Here's to another month of fun memories, and I'll see you all next week! ♥

Lord of Tomes
Tumblr media
Request: For the spinning wheel event i present you Maedhros. 🩷🙂
Pairing: Maedhros x Reader
Genre: Library au
AN: Thanks for requesting and I hope you enjoy this annon.
(What in the Hell is Happening Event)
Tumblr media
"Dude, is that seriously the librarian?" your friend hissed, voice barely a whisper that somehow managed to carry across the entire library. "He looks like he stepped out of a painting! Way too hot for this dusty book dungeon."
You stifled a laugh, desperately trying to appear inconspicuous as your friend continued their passionate - and surprisingly loud - commentary.
A low chuckle resonated from behind the towering oak desk. The librarian, all grace and pointed ears, emerged from the shadows.
"Actually," he said, a hint of amusement dancing in his emerald eyes, "I prefer the term 'temple of knowledge.' And yes, I am indeed the librarian." He arched an eyebrow, taking in your wide-eyed expressions.
"Then you must be the god of this temple," your friend, Kiana, deadpanned without skipping a beat. Much to your second-hand embarrassment, she followed it up with a low whistle. "Certainly built like one."
You swatted Kiana's shoulder with a light smack, more for show than anything. Internally, you were ready to denounce every bad decision that led you to this library, this very moment. How could you have known a trip with Kiana, the queen of corny one-liners, would turn into a scene straight out of a romance novel?
But oh boy, was this a scene. The librarian, a living embodiment of "tall, dark, and handsome," stood there with a hint of amusement dancing in his emerald eyes. He could reach the very top shelf with a casual stretch, and his fiery red hair, braided down his back, was practically begging to be featured in a bard's ballad. Clutching a copy of "Bell Jar" like a holy text, he looked like he'd stepped out of your wildest library fantasies.
You stole a glance at Kiana, who was still grinning like a Cheshire cat. This. This was why you still hung out with her, despite the occasional social suicide. "Ooh, is that a holy relic of Plath in your clutches, Library God?"” And then your disaster of a friend turned to you, “He’s the one. I give you both my blessing.” The words that haunt your nightmares.
Stomping your feet away to hide the blush you dare not look at the librarian as you left with a whispered, “I am so sorry,” while dragging a chuckling Kiana with you as the last of her sacrilegiously loud words rung out loud in the library, “She’s just shy. Shoot your shot you fucking icon.”
You left the library in a flurry, leaving behind a bewildered (and maybe a little intrigued) librarian amidst the towering shelves.
Tumblr media
The return receipt that glared back at you rendered you unmoving. So, stationed on your bed you stare at the small piece of paper, and Scrawled across it, in neat handwriting were the words of Plath and a phone number. 
“If the moon smiled, she would resemble you.” (Plath, Ariel)
With a deep breath, you threw caution (and maybe a shred of dignity) to the wind. Your finger hovered over the screen for a beat too long before tapping in the number. A ridiculous grin spread across your face as you saved the contact: "God of Tomes."
A quick text fired off, the fate of your potential future romance hanging in the digital ether. What exactly did you say to a literal library god who quoted Plath and possessed a phone number hidden within a dusty copy of "Bell Jar?" Only time, and maybe a little divine library intervention, would tell.

For all my TLT girlies (gender-neutral), please read Tamsyn Muir's standalone fantasy novella Princess Floralinda and the Forty-Flight Tower.
There is:
Subversion of classic fairytale tropes
A princess protagonist who starts out just like all the other girls and slowly morphs into a murderous bimbo
A secondary MC who is very Harrow-coded
And a non-binary icon to boost!
Graphic death and violence
General gross stuff
TazMuir's trademark sense of humour

Manga Recommendation: Tower Dungeon
So looks like Arkus Rhapsode is here to recommend another fantasy manga after the last one. So this time we're going for a bit of a different flavor with the series Tower Dungeon by by Tsutomu Nihei who you may know as the creator of Blame! and Knights of Sidonia.
Tumblr media
Now I've known about this series for a bit even though it is relatively new. Having only started last year in Monthly Shonen Sirius. But I remember its announcement from people like Manga Mogul and hearing Makoto Yukimura (Author of the incredible Vinland Saga) recommending it. Now I always loved Sword and sorcery so I was gonna read it eventually, but it just wasn't translated. However, now being able to read the available chapters, I can say this is a very different type of fantasy series.
The premise is very basic: An evil sorcerer has killed a nation's king and kidnapped a Princess and now the royal knights need to ascend the "Dragon Tower" to save her. One battalion has conscripted a young man named Yuva for assisting troops medically has found he has impressive strength. Now Yuva must strengthen himself for the journey ahead as they explore the deadly tower.
Now like all simple premise stories, the real strength is in execution. And unlike the other fantasy series I've talked about before which have bucked the trend of "RPG fantasy" be leaning more into a traditionalist fantasy stories a la Tolkien, this goes for the more realist fantasy of something like Berserk or Dark Souls.
Tumblr media
The world of Tower Dungeon may have things like magic and dragons, but it is a dingy, dirty, and lacks any frills. Knights wear heavy armor and people are covered in blood and scars from their adventures.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The mighty Dragon Tower itself? The most iconic thing about this series and the basis of the adventure? Looks like this. This isn't an opulent tower, this is a massive imposing structure where monsters dwell.
Tumblr media
However, unlike some grim dark or edgy fantasies, this world isn't indulgent in its darkness. The violence and death are never cool or cheap. They are simply the way the world is. Even when magic exists, the world is still like Medieval Europe and all the "joys" that come from it.
The people as well are similar. These aren't romanticized or polished fantasy archetypes that often come with the idea of a Dungeons and Dragons style adventure, these feel like average joes plucked off the streets having to do a job. If you are say a fan of something like Chainsaw Man, this sort of post modern emphasis on people acting like regular weirdos and not some "anime characters." And I think that is something quite nice that even in a fantastical world, we can see our regular selves in them.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
But that's just the story, what about the art? Well if you've noticed this series does have a very minimalist style. Something similar to that of Land of the Lustrous or Chainsaw Man. These almost scratchy and not the most detailed designs that make use of their simplicity to create this very unique atmosphere.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Creature designs themselves are less fantastical and more grody. Feeling as if they come from an off shoot of man rather than some majestic beast. Right down to the cat people.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
This series is still new and sadly hasn't been officially translated yet. I've had to use mangadex to read this, so my heart goes out to the translator team. I can understand that this may be a niche that's not for everyone, but its something that feels like such a good sign for fantasy as a genre. A genre that I think has somewhat been stagnated in popular belief with the greater emphasis on Urban Action manga and the reliance on escapist fantasy anime like isekai. To see a more dirty but down to earth take on the premise, I highly recommend it.

Lovebrush Chronicles: Godheim Review
_________________________________________
My very long, informal, and definitely biased review. This will contain minor spoilers for the Godheim arc only so take caution. This review is also only limited to the Godheim series so there will be no overall thoughts on the game itself. I followed Otome Kitten's format and I really hope it helps out any beginners to LBC.
____________________________________
Tumblr media
ART:
I found the art very pretty and was extremely glad to see that they did not skip out on giving us CGs either! The sprites all looked good, but I personally have some issues with Lars' outfit (the orange did not look good on you sweetie 💀).
Not all CGs are drawn by the same artist however, which may be off putting for some. The total count number of proper CG's for each route (not including common route) boils down to around 4-5, so that also may be a pet peeve for some.
On another note, there are also mini CG's which appear as small boxes, whether you consider it as an actual CG is up to you. Personally, I enjoyed the roles they played towards aiding the narrative.
Unrelated note, I'm banging on the floor crying and wondering who the hell did Ayn's CGs (the one where he was cleaning his sword was my absolute favorite 😍) and why didn't they come back.
MUSIC:
If there's one aspect of the game that I shall praise to the ends of the earth, it's the music.
Colour me shocked when I listened to the intricate and deep soundtracks for the first time, they just took my breath away! There were many gorgeous orchestral scores that depicted the fantasy setting perfectly. Not to mention the battle ost's which had more effort put into them than necessary.
My personal favorite OST's would be the "River's End", and "Starry Sky", which plays the same tune as the OP song you hear when you log onto the game. It's honestly so iconic. 😭👌
Opening theme:
youtube
VOICE ACTING:
I was absolutely flummoxed by the stacked japanese voice cast, which all included extremely famous seiyuus from the otome industry:
1. Ayn Alwyn
[JP VA: KENN]: Shelby Snail (Cupid Parasite), Yukimaro (9R.I.P), Limbo (Bustfellows)
2. Alkaid McGrath
[JP VA: Tachibana Shinnosuke]: Seiya (9R.I.P), Henri (Piofiore), Rafayel (Love and Deepspace)
3. Lars Rorschach
[JP VA: Junichi Suwabe]: Artem (Tears of Themis), Van Helsing (Code: Realize), Sukuna (Jujutsu Kaisen)
4. Clarence Clayden
[JP VA: Kosuke Toriumi]: Rei Mukuni (CollarXMalice), Ichiya (Variable Barricade), Chojiro (Nightshade)
5. Cael Anselm
[JP VA: Daisuke Hirakawa]: Saint Germain (Code: Realize), Tower Overlord (Psychedelica of the Ashen Hawk), Lucas Proust (Virche Evermore)
COMMON ROUTE:
To my delight, the pacing was done very well. Nothing was dragged out and the introduction to the overall plot of the game was well established minus a certain plot point which definitely could have benefited better by being introduced in the common route itself.
I didn't really expect it to turn out as dark as it did however. The common route + modern prologue took me around a total estimation of more than 4 hours but in reality the prologue itself shouldn't take that long at all.
ROUTE ORDER:
Once you've completed the common route, you are given the option to start either Ayn's or Alkaid's route. After you've completed both, Lars' route is unlocked. And once you've finished all three routes, Clarence's route unlocks as the grand finale.
This was my personal playthrough and I wouldn't have changed it if given the chance. I believe it had the best flow of story progression. Though that was mainly because I wouldn't have enjoyed Alkaid's route as much if I'd played Ayn's first:
Alkaid = Ayn = Lars = Clarence
____________________________________
AYN ALWYN:
- Crown Prince of Godheim
- Tsundere
- Sweet tooth ❤️
Tumblr media
Ayn is Lars's cousin, but you soon find out that there is not a hint of familial love between them. He shows up as a mysterious figure during the common route and portrays a conflicting character, making the heroine unsure of his standing. While he appears blunt and crude, he is a determined young man who's sworn vengeance, and with an unexpected love for sweets.
Ayn's route in my opinion had the best consistent pacing as well as romance. I did find the romance somewhat abrupt early in the story, but the strong chemistry between him and the heroine more than made up for it! 🥰 It was just so enjoyable to watch them banter with one another and watching them just click.
I enjoyed the storyline for this route a lot and I think it had something to do with the fact that Ayn's route provided a different perspective in comparison to the others. In this route, we learn more about the the political situation surrounding Godheim and the royal family.
I also loved Ayn as a character, and not unexpectedly became my oshi ❤️.I do think a lot of people will enjoy him as a love interest. His route also has a wee bit of spice 👀, so for y'all thirsty gamers be sure to savor it slowly, as it's the only bit of spice we're getting here lmao. I did find some of his actions, mostly in the bad ends, to be OOC, but I easily brushed it off seeing as how much I liked him.
ALKAID MCGRATH:
- Member of the Noventrate
- Good, sweet boi
- Tea
Tumblr media
Devoted and caring, Alkaid is the mage assigned to guard the heroine during her stay in Godheim. He's always expressing his concern for the heroine and will do anything to help her, even if it means betraying his mission.
Alkaid is the character who the heroine interacts the most during the common route. His romance with the heroine was sweet, even if it did feel way over the top in it's initial stages when I first played it. But once I got to learn more about him, I realized that he truly just wanted the best for the heroine, romantic feelings aside. 🥺
The route was fine. But I personally wasn't the biggest fan of the direction (?) it took on halfway. Some parts of it felt irrational to me and didn't really feel like it had any real relevance to its own story.
On another note, Alkaid is such a dreamy man. 😩 I adore just how respectful of a man he is in general (women respect juice, bottoms up!), and it was so sweet how attentive he was in making sure the heroine was always out of harm's way. I guess you could say he was someone akin to a hero in fairytales.
LARS RORSCHACH:
- Emperor of Godheim
- Good at combing hair 🥰
- That chest doe 👀
Tumblr media
Known as the "Tyrant Emperor" from the heroine's manga, he immediately sweeps her off her feet, claiming her as his bride the moment she first arrived at Godheim. While his initial impression was flirty and playful, he lives up to his name as a cold-blooded tyrant. For some aspects at least.
His route focused more on the Silver Knight, which was the main (and wrong) reason why I enjoyed his route so much! 😆 On that note, I think that the writers had a bone to pick with Lars. They just had to force him to share the spotlight with an intriguing side character lmfao. The route itself was paced and executed well for the majority, but the quality of the writing towards the end was slightly skewered.
But to be honest, I quite enjoyed Lars a lot as a character, rather than a love interest. It was interesting to see the conditions surrounding his birth as a tyrant and his motivations for his questionable actions.
That's not to say that the romance wasn't enjoyable. I actually quite liked the relationship between him and the heroine. I found some moments they shared together really sweet. I also adored the development of Lars' feelings, and you can see just how important the heroine's existence was to him at the end of the route.
Though I guess I would have found the romance more believable if the heroine articulated her feelings for Lars more. I found it difficult to see the romance from her side. In short, the romance wasn't it's strongest point.
Clarence Clayden:
- Godheim's Archmage
- Get the tissues
- I've never been the same since...
Tumblr media
Clarence has somewhat poised himself as an antagonist, only giving leeway in Lars' route. Distant and cold, he is stubborn in wanting to use the heroine for his goal and is willing to sacrifice anything to achieve it.
This route was an emotional rollercoaster. It broke me down, dumped my heart 6ft underground, trampled on its grave, and then some. It left me broken for a whole week for real goodness gracious...😭
This route can probably considered the "True Route", seeing as how it tackles the problem straight on unlike in other routes. The pacing slows down a little bit for a few chapters, but once it picked itself back up, it picked up HARD.
Now let's get to the romance. Out of all routes, some may say it had the least sugary romance, and a part of me agrees. But do igaf? No! ❤️Clarence turned out to be such a longingly sweet character and despite all the harm and pain he's done, I have no qualms in forgiving him and wanting to love him with all my heart🥺, as does the heroine.
I honestly don't want to say too much as it may ruin the experience. I went into this route completely blind and boy was I glad. All I can say that this route was the most popular out of all the routes for good reason. Got me playing up to 2 am with no regrets.😆😭
CAEL ANSELM:
- The Silver Knight
- The bias wrecker
- The sus
- He ruined me...
Tumblr media
He is known in Godheim as the Silver Knight as well as the leader of the Rebellion. Decisive and apathetic, the heroine is unable to affect him emotionally in any form.🤡
Cael does not have an actual route, but a personal story, labeled as Expedition from his POV which may serve as an epilogue to the Godheim series. In his story, any unanswered questions are explained here, as well as the many actions he took that did not make it on screen.
If this wasn't a review I'd spend one whole section brainrotting about him so be grateful I'm trying to keep this short. 😅 Cael is a surprisingly interesting character by nature and it was very liberating to finally get a glimpse of his true feelings and thoughts throughout the heroine's journey in Godheim.
I'm scared to say more in case it may ruin any surprises. In my opinion, I enjoyed his story a LOT! It definitely made me feel depressed and empty in its own way and it hurts my heart to see that he never got a route of his own for reasons I won't get into right now. Absolutely amazing and one of my favorite parts of the Godheim series!
_________________________________________
TRUE EPILOGUE:
Tumblr media
Once you've finished all routes, the game will give you the option to choose one "True Ending", wherein you choose one of the boys to have a happily ever after with and by your own accord.
"One can only paint a world in which they believe in." 🥰
Please note that you can only choose one boy at a time. Your choice will then give you a Pictura based on which boy you choose.
To change your "True Ending", buy the Diadem from the shop to change your choice. You will not receive a different Pictura however.
I think the best thing about these endings were the music.😆 Each soundtrack was unique to each character and drop dead gorgeous to listen to. 😩
HEROINE (LITTLE PAINTER):
- Cheeky
- Anonymous manga author
- Needs a therapist (rly tho)
Tumblr media
Despite China's strange attempts at creating self-insert heroines by leaving them nameless, the Little Painter was far from a blank slate! She's extremely relatable when it comes to her reactions and actions. Often times I would react a certain way to something an LI said or did, only for her to do the same thing! 🤣 I guess that could also count as a self-insert personality.
But if there's one thing I admire her greatly for, it would be her drive and determination to save Godheim. Her journey was far from easy and I doubt I could ever stay sane the way she did. Tbh, I didn't like the fact that her sufferings were never truly addressed properly, or rather, professionally ig?
I also found her quick adaptation and flexibility to her new environment extremely impressive. That goes the same to the way she wielded her powers for the first time. And how she grew stronger to go head to toe with even Clarence in his own route! You👏 Go👏Get👏 Em👏 Girl!
That said, she's not perfect. Some people found her to pushy and annoying though I personally found it okay. I was really glad how she didn't force herself to tolerate any crap and got that anger out rightfully.😆 (Asmoran deserved it...)
Tumblr media
_________________________________________
Final Thoughts:
Tumblr media
I have enjoyed my journey immensely! The whole premise and setting drew me in, and I was surprised with the impressive narration which absolutely pummeled me to the ground (mostly on Clarence's route and no I'm not shutting up abt that).
The localization was also really superb? Yes it had a few typos + mistakes here and there, but they really pulled out all the stops when it came to making the dialogue natural and relatable. Not to mention a few large words that even I don't understand. 😂
It's not without it's imperfections of course. There are definitely some issues with the writing. And if you're looking for heavy romance or even fluff, Godheim is not the place to go to. 😅
Playing the Godheim arc took me about a week-ish, considering I had to level up and such. It may be a tedious process for some, but for me, it was an iron gate which I violently shook every day, screaming for the next chapter.
All in all, it's definitely worth playing! You don't lose much anyway considering it's free, so just give it a try. You can always drop it if you don't like it. My rating for this game is also very much biased and should not be taken seriously:
8/10
