Challenge #04581-L197: Attitudes Adjusted While You Wait

Wraithvine {who may or may not have a companion} has found Hirself contractually obligated with escorting a truly wretched individual to safety. A Lordling who pisses on the common folk, believes himself superior, and is guilty of a few actual crimes no one dares arrest him for.

No locals, anyway, and while Wraithvine needs to bring the Lordling to a certain location…there’s nothing that says the journey must end there. Why not continue on to a jurisdiction where the Lordling can face arrest? Jail is quite safe, after all. -- Anon Guest

Sometimes, species of Alfarell have an easy time making enemies, whilst openly wondering if it was something they said. For most of recorded time, that species was the Elves. They entered the mortal plane and immediately took umbrage with Dragonkind. As other species evolved, either the Dragons or the Elves attempted to dominate them. Thus creating more umbrage all around.

You'd think that species that long-lived would learn more lessons in their lifetimes, but no. They kept repeating the mistakes they refused to learn from history.

Case in point, the Lordling Liacaryn, a mere septuagenarian[1] who had a checkered past since his Tormentious Twenties[2]. They were entitled, arrogant, openly disrespectful, and hornier than a Geep[3]. He'd already caused a lot of lawsuits and nearly triggered a few wars as a result of his neglected by-blows.

Wednesday, Rant Due and Video Things

I figure that, if I edit on the days between posting day, then I have extra time windows to manage that thing. So I'm recording a thing today and wrangling stuff tomorrow so I can post on Friday.

I'm also doing a thing on my rant blog and I think I shall rave and recommend (surprising nobody) K-Pop Demon Hunters. I have a lot of love to share about it. And some words to spend on the best character in the whole

Challenge #04580-L196: The Best Kingdom in the World

Kind and wise and magnanimous King Nydon's daughter has run off with a bard. Obviously she was tricked, as his castle is a happy place.

“Wraithvine is the name? Yes, you’ll do. Take along anyone you need. Here’s the princess's picture. Ignore any of her pleas, they’ll be the man’s magic. Just drop her off with the gate guards when you bring her back…” -- Anon Guest

Something was rotten in the nation of Bevuran. The key was

Tuesday, Patreon and Extra Owwies

Yesterday, I could barely walk because of the ankle. My opposite knee doesn't like supporting the extra weight, so I've been wearing a knee brace there for at least four days.

After yesterday, my achey shoulders have been worse because supporting my weight with the cane has set the knots there into a worse tangle.

As I said to MeMum, I need a big burly bloke to wring the knots out of my shoulders with a bucket of Deep Heat.

I have

Challenge #04579-L195: Devoured Conflict

After having too many “brownies” Edward and flora stare at the starry sky above. “Hey Flo, if a vampire drink a fae’s blood, would the fae becomes it thrall? Or the vampire becomes the fae servant due to having fae food without permission?” Flora gaze at her undead friend. “That’s kinky… and how my parents got married…” -- Anon Guest

Monday, Owwies

As I type, I now have bracers on three of my joints. One on the ankle, one on my opposite knee, and one on my right hand. My left wrist is threatening to act up as well.

Mayhem can't go to work because the family resposible for taking him on the last leg have the dreaded Rona. Prayers for wellbeing appreciated

Today, walking is painful. I'm getting Chaos to help gather my daily doses.

This might be painful.

Challenge #04578-L194: When Prey Turns Around

The body lays beaten and bloody on the floor. They were breathing, they would not be killed, but they'd had plenty of chances to back out.

"I have to bring you in alive. I even offered you the chance to come peacefully. Why do you guys always insist on doing things the hard way? You want to kill, fine, but missiles like you need to be launched at the proper targets." -- Anon Guest

Sunday, No Streams

Two hours up, ten minutes "icing" my ankle. Lather, rinse, and repeat. For as long as I can stand doing that cycle.

I've taken loads of time to do my minimal offering output. I don't know if I can move things along quicker. I can try but...

The ankle is distracting even when I'm at my debatably most comfortable.

Add to the interesting times the fact that I'm lacking good quality time with the QPP and feeling a little lonely because of

Challenge #04577-L193: Some Who Wander Are...

Wraithvine (and perhaps companions?) comes upon an inn near a foggy forest where a young knight and his half-wolf lady are struggling to return home. It seems that the hail from another world entirely, one with low and different sort of magic, which may make getting them home a real hassle... -- Anon Guest

Saturday, No Parkrun Because Ankle

I have a maximum of two hours to do things before I have to spend twenty minutes with a cold pack on and under my ankle. Plus I have bread going on. I thought one batch would be enough, and it looks like the kids are back to predating upon it.

Mayhem's off to work this Monday, so I may have to get Chaos to contribute to the bread supply.

I have NO idea how I'm going to deal around shopping time.

Challenge #04576-L192: Sacrifices For the Cargo Cult

The Machine towers over the city, a gargantuan maze of steel, cogs, and steam. Thousands slave away to feed the beast lumber, coal, and blood to build it bigger. No one knows anymore why it was made, who made it, or what it was meant to do. But if anyone is heard questioning The Machine, that individual can expect no mercy. Those who came before can't have dedicated their lives for nothing, they can't have! They cant! -- Anon Guest

Friday, New Routine and Bread

On the advice of my physiotherapist, I have a new way of working. It's a cycle of about two hours and twenty minutes. Two hours sitting up and doing things, twenty minutes with a cold pack juggled around the ankle. Ten minutes under, ten minutes over.

It's... workable.

I have enlisted Mayhem to help me bothering the bread. Just in case I have other bullshit going on.

The starter's incubating, I measured everything but the salt [my bad] and all is more

Challenge #04575-L191: What Price a Wish?

All around the world have opened strange, white colonnaded buildings like banks or fancy law offices. Except these "Exchanges" are entirely empty save for shadows behind the frosted windows at the back who never speak. Here a lucky few can redeem gold lettered coupons for any wish the heart desires. Though the mouth had better word the request carefully, as those shadows listen carefully and there are no refunds... -- Anon Guest

Thursday, Physio and Catching Up

Getting all my nonsense for the household cost me money and energy. So I'll be catching up on my videos at some point today.

I take off at a quarter to ten so I have a hope of writing some ADT before I get on with the rest of my daily nonsense.

I honestly don't know how I'm going to deal because my right heel has started stinging for no apparent reason. Fun times.

Adorable has a headcold, Mayhem has signed up

Challenge #04574-L190: Tools of the Trade

Barber/Doctor Tynmalin has handled plenty of sicknesses, carefully studying the humors of her patients and applying sharp things when needed. However this BD comes upon a delicate case of separating two conjoined twins which will test her finesse and medical/cutting prowess to the limit. -- Anon Guest

Some things are healed with a spell or a prayer. For the outliers in which power cannot help, there is surgery. A job for Barbers once upon an era past. Thus, the League
