@cxilcd continuation from x

Quietly Gwyn listened to the stranger, her lips pressed into a thin line and eyebrows tightly knitted into a frown.

“You know what I am, you know how we wander, how only the coin can change our path…” Weary of the man’s stature her hand wrapped itself around the hilt of her sword. “…and how we wander alone.”

[cxilcd]

Silver gray eyes reflected but a sliver of moonlight from within what appeared to be a black silhouette, most of the pale features of his face clouded by strands of dark hair, with chin crowned by a beard. Those eyes did not miss her hand going to her sword.

“A noble creature indeed,” came his words again, “...if but terribly misguided. Thy kind dost ever want for the perpetually unattainable. Thinkest thou wouldst receiveth the sum of a thousand kings for the head of an undying dreadbeast? Thou’rt not the first to try, Vatt’ghern, and thou wilt not be the last.” He made no move to attack, leaving the choice completely up to the witcher.

“Very few I find have not,” there was no semblance of pride or boastfulness in his voice, but rather minor irritation. He was ancient, this was true, but he had kept fairly quiet in his forest, save for the merciless killings of the vampires that hunted him.

“Akin to thy Brokilon, my forest swallows those who enter. It either kills them whole or becomes their sanctuary,” he eyed the elf with unblinking eyes, glowing slightly with their reflection of the moonlight, similar to a cat’s.

continued from here:

“ Nothing so terrible as that. ” The younger vampire stood some twenty feet behind, small amongst the ancient oaks and yet every inch as steady. He stood with his hands clasped behind his back, making no move to attack or otherwise provoke, simply watching with an unreadable expression. “ You may lower your hackles, good fellow; the Elder has called no hunt, and I have little interest in spilling the blood of anathema. I come at my own behest, and no-one else’s. ”

A rumble of comtemplation emanated frombthe Elder, and the forest grew ever still. "We come to an understanding, then. You let me be, and I spare thee thy life. Speak then, Child of Gharasham, the ill-fated: why are you come to my realm?"

SEASONAL  AESTHETICS  .

bold  what  applies  to  your  muse     /     repost,  don’t  reblog  !

tagged  by :  @upperaedirn ♥ tagging : whoever

𝐖𝐈𝐍𝐓𝐄𝐑.     a chill right down to the bones.   tobogganing.    teeth chattering.    sleeping all day.    sitting by the fireplace.   spending time with family.    layered clothing.   seeing another’s breath.   loving the cold.   a state of inactivity.  cold hands.   blistering winds shaking the closed windows.   a bookcase full of brand new books and all of the time in the world to read them.   cable knit socks.   a bitter remark.   a log cabin in the middle of nowhere.   hating the cold.   full length windows to peer out of.   pale skin.   deep conversations.   watching the snow fall.   sharp edges.   hot cocoa.   smelling every candle in the store.   a wild snow storm. melancholy.    lighting candles around the bathtub.   snow globes.   expressing yourself but never finding quite the right words.  the softest of blankets.   liking, but not loving something or someone.

𝐒𝐏𝐑𝐈𝐍𝐆.      the smell after it rains.   being in control of yourself.   a soft breeze blowing your hair.   lightning when it strikes.  cherry blossoms.   bright mornings. the first sign of hope.  the relief of finding something you lost.   paris in the spring.   birds chirping.    the art of growing.   a kiss on the cheek.   the clap of thunder.  a tornado in the valley.  smiling at a stranger.   planning.   saccharine pinks.   making promises.   trying something new. hugs when you need them most. a bee sting.   sitting on the steps of the met.   coming inside drenched from the thunderstorm.   picnics on a red checkered blanket in the new sun.   that feeling you get when you put on a good dress.   a long hike.   rushing when you can take your time.  going to the gym at ungodly hours.   excitement for what’s coming. becoming yourself. rain boots.

𝐒𝐔𝐌𝐌𝐄𝐑.      lanterns lit around a campfire.  seeing the sunrise like its the first time again and again.  melting ice cream.   the warmth of sun rays upon skin.   fireworks.     the feeling of never wanting something to end.   beach days.   the lone blow up floaty left in the pool, drifting with the warm nights breeze and nothing else.   music blasting at 3am, loud and proud.  palms trees on sunset boulevard.  longer days and shorter nights.   wanderlust.   nights spent staring at the stars.   sand castles.   road trips.    blood orange sunsets.   leaving the laundry to hang outside.    flowers in bloom.    sneaking out of your room late at night.   pure contentment.   barefoot in the sand.   the street lights coming on.   the sound of the ocean in a seashell. freshly squeezed lemonade.   loose clothing.   a cannonball into the pool.   sunflowers.   the hazy pink before dusk.  relaxation.

𝐅𝐀𝐋𝐋.     the leaves changing colors.   a heavy backpack.    the smell of old books.   eating until you’re stuffed.   deep, dark woods.   the silence in loudness.  abandoned houses.   ripped jeans.   crunching leaves beneath feet.    feeling like you’ve been somewhere before. sitting at a bay window.    having endless amount of homework.    charcoal drawings.  screaming into a pillow as loud as you can.  pumpkin patches.   creaky floorboards. accepting that some things do have to change.   museums.   small talk.   being ignored.   procrastinating.   a door slamming shut.  going to bed early.   baking pies.   the fear of walking alone in the dark.   feeling completely and terribly lost.   a twig snapping.   crisp, cool days.  belly laughter after crying.   converse.   foggy mornings at the shoreline.  writing a daily entry in a journal. a lonely day.

“I assume ‘tis nothing exemplary,” he turned not to face the other vampire, voice even in the stillness of the forest, “Dost thou trouble me at thine Unseen’s behest? Does he truly regard the lives of his tribesmen with so little value? State thy business otherwise, or leave me to mine solitude.”

“Vatt’ghern,” the very word slipped from his mouth like fog from the forests, reminiscent of a snake’s hiss on the wind, “Thou’rt bold to venture unto this place alone. Hast thou come to see if thine hearsay holds true? Trouble me not. Thou’lt find nothing of worth in this hallowed place.”

from A Compendium Of Demonology and Magic (c. 1775)

A selection of pages from an eighteenth-century demonology book, the full Latin title of which, Compendium rarissimum totius Artis Magicae sistematisatae per celeberrimos Artis hujus Magistros, roughly translates to “A rare summary of the entire Magical Art by the most famous Masters of this Art.“ Written in German and Latin the book has been dated to around 1775, although it seems the unknown author tried to pass it off as an older relic, mentioning the year 1057 on the title page.
