Pease Pudding

Pease Pudding าจ This is a story of Felurian. Lady of Twilight. Lady of the First Quiet. Felurian, who is death to men. Where to start? So much to consider Her name? Her song? Her magic? perhaps her titles! Words that tell us what she actually is. Words that we can work with? Yes, minds over hearts it is. A. Lady of Twilight is easy. This is colour where she lives. She can go wherever she wants to of course, even to mortal, but she is the undisputed boss of the twilight zone. She is famous and immortal and very dangerous. B. Lady of the First Quiet is more interesting. You could break it down in many ways, not least by suggesting that the first letter of her sentences is almost always written quietly in lower case. But I’m more drawn towards two of the definitions given in my Terran Dictionary for first and quiet, namely ‘Before all others ~ Peace‘ Since first means that she was there at the beginning of the Fae, that means she was a founding faerie, and before that time, when there was...

nameless

If everyone has had their name changed then keeping track of who's who might get complicated. Anybody could be Anybody, and they probably are since very few of them would Not now wear New names.

A Beautiful Game

To understand god's plan to defeat demons better we are going to need some props to explain how it was meant to work.   Imagine a standard Terran chequers board, which is at first glance probably the simplest game board that there is. It has 8x8 squares in B&W checks and uses 12 counters of each colour that fight for dominance over the whole board. Now you may or may not know that checkers is a game that is played only on the black squares. All of the pieces (of both colours) can move diagonally from one black square to another black square sometimes jumping over a blacksquare en route meaning that 50% of the game board is actually obsolete. Now imagine that in a parallel universe, the rules of the checkers dictate that it is a game played only on the white squares instead. Same rules, same board, same pieces, same moves but with this one tiny difference. This means that theoretically it would be possible to use these unused white squares to be the game board for a separat...

Game pieces

1 ~ A-Gender . Welcome back, we have now pretty much mapped out the first Corner , but our storylines are starting to pull apart now, we have our Lockless family tree rooted in Newarre and our trunk rises from Vintas but now the choice of paths before us want to branch off in different directions at once, but we can only follow one path at a time and the wise student will follow The path of the Book before them. That is of the Lethani. We shall follow Kvothe's journey a little further then and investigate the Adem. They are probably the strangest of all the races of man that we encounter and they hold their secrets tightly. Stillness and silence are the heart of Ademre, something no barbarian could understand. Still, we can but try. Man Mothers When approaching a puzzle that goes against the grain, it is natural to adopt a guilty until proven innocent stance. But you must always remember that this is Fantasy Fiction, not Fantasy Fact. That's a whole different ball game. Therefo...
