The Mallorn Trees of Lothlórien

"That is the fairest of all the dwellings of my people. There are no trees like the trees of that land. For in the autumn their leaves fall not, but turn to gold. Not till the spring and the new green opens do they fall, and then the boughs are laden with yellow flowers; and the floor of the wood is golden, and golden is the roof, and its pillars are of silver, for the bark of the trees is smooth and grey." - Legolas, Lord of the Rings

Did you know that most plot holes can be fixed by making your characters canonically stupid

"This doesn't make any sense, why would he ever-" my man hasn't stumbled onto a thought in years

[rhysintherain]

Fun and easy ways to temporarily make your smart characters stupid:

Sleep deprivation

Drugs

Pretty girl

Pretty not girl

Hungry

Stressed out

Got bored and stopped listening

[brain-deadx0]

Im pretty sure Avatar the Last Airbender did most of these to Sokka

[hdgnj]

Also, someone else lied to our protag.

[ailithnight]

Pain can also temporarily nerf intelligence. : D

The Istari

Radagast is moth inspired, while Pallando is inspired by the Tuareg people. I also made a mood board for each wizard, except Gandalf.

The size of the ball of light is determined by how much power they have, as I HC their staffs as a manifester of their Maiar power, since they are "trapped" in their mortal bodies.

the reason that wounds that break the skin hurt is because its always supposed to be dark inside your body and when your blood sees sunlight for the first time it gets scared. and that causes the pain. or maybe it doesnt

My woke take, as someone who has worked in both a public library and a school library, is that we desperately need both more books that are at a higher reading level but a less mature subject matter, and more books that are at a lower reading level but a more mature subject matter, because 8 year olds who are advanced readers are still 8 year olds and don't want to read about graphic violence and torture, and teens and adults who have learning difficulties or who are just later readers for whatever reason are still teens and adults and don't want to read about Billy the Bunny going to school or whatever the hell.
