Worldbuilding:
- Myeinus: 32-day long month of Spring in the Heartland Calendar. Named after the Goddess of Magic and Magnificence.
- Aurorinus: 33-day long month of Winter in the Heartland Calendar. Named after the Goddess of Dawn, Love and Wisdom venerated in the Heartland nations. In the North and South, recognized as the Goddess who heralds new beginnings, the Lady of Hope.
- Snow-Scaled Coven I: The largest coven of the North, rivals to the Black Rose Order. Founded in the first centuries of the First Demonic Crusade, established by the skielfrith house of Dreahal who first befriended their winged cousins, rode them into battle against the fiendish hordes. First started out as a knightly coven of their kin, worshipping Aurhmangr, the Great Dragon God of Heleion, mate of Myelia. Though he remained chief amongst their worshipped deities, once they grew in power, gobbled up the smaller covens, incorporated the worship of their deities.
- Hvirtvia Host: The greatest branch of the Snow-Scaled Coven, ever present in all their heimrads (holdings). Created by Ragnaerh of House Dreahal in the last centuries when his own brother turned against his own family, his own world. For 27 centuries, he led the Host into myriads of battles across the north, before he fell as one of the many who attempted uniting the north during those tumultuous eons. A task which he failed when Freianna withdrew her coven and aid, for reasons lost to history. Presently, it is led by Hersith Sigenoroth, Husband of Lythienne, a daughter of House Dreahal, Hersith of the Black Roses.
- The Higher Court of Night and Darkness: Higher Court ruled by the Countess of Night, Darkness and all that lurks under Her Veil. Including the bestial predators hunting during the night, spiders who lurk in the dark recesses of Heleion, and the indigenous folk of Eoran, blessed by her essence. Their realm is recognized as Duskfall, a realm of endless night, where the leaves emanate a tenebrous light, a gargantuan silvery disk replicates the grace of the Moon. Known to descend upon the Umbrillien Hinterlands on every 24th of Veitrundur, where her worshippers flock, challenging themselves on a long pilgrimage through the hinterland. It is believed by the native feyfolk of the North, that amongst her many gifts to them, the longer nights each winter and autumn were her greatest.
Weekly Updates:
- So, as of now writing (Saturday that is) the Spookinktober story is almost finished with its unedited version. The last tale remains, one a bit ‘experimental’ in its structure. An idea I wanted to do for a long time in a short story format. Just never put myself to it, believing this structure fits longer stories better. For reasons.
- Then next week I plan to upload early access to the unedited tales first, then start editing them. The unedited early access will come in one day, the edited as I finish editing them. Story sits at almost 10k words. So, it may take a little while.
- And lastly, the December story, I hope to finish too, and move on editing the last three or four chapters, then add a few more segments.
- Speaking of which, these segments of the Deal of the Revolution will focus on secondary characters or minor, practically red-shirts in the Umbrillien Hinterland. The early ones are all ambushes between the Black Roses, Dusk Weavers and the Separatists hiding there. As the story ramps up, these ambushes shift into skirmishes, battles as the goal of the Separatists lie in the old and renovated forth in the heart of hinterland.
