30 days of horror/day thirteen: favorite zombie movie

“it started as rioting. but right from the beginning you knew this was different. because it was happening in small villages, market towns. and then it wasn’t on the tv any more. it was in the street outside. it was coming in through your windows. it was a virus. an infection. you didn’t need a doctor to tell you that. it was the blood. it was something in the blood. by the time they tried to evacuate the cities it was already too late. army blockades were overrun. and that’s when the exodus started. before the tv and radio stopped broadcasting there were reports of infection in paris and new york. we didn’t hear anything more after that.” - 28 days later (2003)

Some tips for using a few words to describe voices:

1. Tone Words: Use tone words to convey the emotional quality of a voice. For example, you can describe a voice as "melodic," "soothing," "sharp," "gentle," or "commanding" to give readers a sense of the tone.

2. Pitch and Range: Mention the pitch and range of the voice. Is it "deep," "high-pitched," "raspy," or "full-bodied"? This can provide insight into the character's age, gender, or emotional state.

3. Accent and Diction: Describe the character's accent or diction briefly to give a sense of their background or cultural influences. For instance, "British-accented," "Southern drawl," or "formal."

4. Volume: Mention the volume of the voice, whether it's "whispering," "booming," "murmuring," or "hushed."

5. Quality: Use terms like "velvet," "silken," "gravelly," "honeyed," or "crisp" to convey the texture or quality of the voice.

6. Rate of Speech: Describe how fast or slow the character speaks, using words like "rapid," "slurred," "measured," or "rambling."

7. Mood or Emotion: Indicate the mood or emotion carried by the voice. For example, a "quivering" voice may convey fear or anxiety, while a "warm" voice may express comfort and reassurance.

8. Resonance: Describe the resonance of the voice, such as "echoing," "nasal," "booming," or "tinny."

9. Timbre: Mention the timbre of the voice, using words like "rich," "thin," "clear," or "smoky."

10. Cadence: Highlight the rhythm or cadence of speech with descriptors like "staccato," "lilting," "rhythmic," or "halting."

11. Intonation: Convey the character's intonation by saying their voice is "sarcastic," "apologetic," "confident," or "questioning."

12. Vocal Characteristics: If applicable, mention unique vocal characteristics, like a "lisp," "stutter," "drawl," or "accented 'r'."

Bit of a light question this time: Do you believe that the Iron Throne was forged with Balerion's dragonfire? Even taking into account the size of the book!Iron Throne, given that Balerion's throat was large enough to swallow a mammoth whole it seems like the equivalent of writing a book with the tip of your tongue.

Yeah, but it's cool.

Is it realistic from a world building standpoint that the Rhoynar cities were never rebuilt? They were burned 1000 years ago and the Valyrians have been dead for 400 years + the Rhoyne is like the in-universe Nile river

The real question is, who would be willing to fund colonies to rebuild the Rhoynish cities? Cities like Ny Sar and the Sorrows (formerly Chroyane) are fairly far from bases of financial power that might be able to expend the liquid capital to fund a colony as it gets off the ground. Small settlements along the Rhoyne are a given, but rebuilding the Rhoynish cities as opposed to just squatting in the ruins and salvaging them for quarried stone might be a tall order without significant financial backing.

Thanks for the question, Anon.
