Old Gods in the Dark Wood @loki-erlking - Tumblr Blog

Velkommen

I'm Loki, 26 years old, I love my Wife, My Son, and Wolves.

I enjoy drawing, writing, reading fanfics, and fucking about in the woods

I enjoy Mythology, Folklore, FolkHorror, Werewolves, History, Art, Paganism, Catholicism etc...

I’m currently working on a couple books. Including but not limited to a novel, 2 children’s books, and a collection of short stories.

I enjoy reading fanfics primarily about Harry Potter and Percy Jackson

Remus and Sirius are amazing, though the hyper feminization of Sirius will be the death of me.

I may make posts about Dark Forests, Old Gods, Werewolves, Wolves, Vikings, my personal life and other such things.

My DMs and Ask box are always open, so feel free to send me a message and I'll try to reply, but can't promise that I always will.

Sooo yeah, also....

If you see something on my page that you don’t agree with, please simply block me and don’t interact, and I’ll do the same should I see something I don’t agree with. We all have a right to our own opinions, and along with that, the right to not interact and deal with said opinions.

Blood Moon 🌕🩸

I had the honour to portray one of the characters of my long time patron @lycan--carcass The name of this character is 'Prokletý Pán' which could be translated from czech as "Cursed Lord". He fits the narrative as a beast entity who creates werewolves when the blood moon rises.

Saw 6 turtles at work today on two logs….3 turtles per log….

Very big day for Elmo

House Shopping is a stressful affair regardless of where you are or what your situation is. But currently I am torn between looking at houses that are park of a good community where there are many other kids, so mine would have some friends.

Or looking at places further out in the sticks away from everyone, so I can raise my kid the way I was. Out in the woods and amongst the wildlife that you don’t get in the cities.

Community or Privacy

Convenience or Homesteading

"A fucked-up family's a fucked-up family, whether or not werewolves are involved." - Carrie Vaughn (Kitty Takes a Holiday (Kitty Norville, #3))

There is something very comforting about my Rosary.

The weight of it in my hands, the click of the beads. Tracing the pattern of the triskele or feeling the raised cross on my thumb where I press it against the Vargkors.

It feels sturdy, and constant.

Reliable.

It feels reliable. The wolf head Our Father, followed by the ten Hail Mary’s.

It’s a single decade. But it’s mine.

My Rosary. I physical representation of where I came from, and where I am now.

My Rosary, that rests in the old leather pouch that 14 years ago old me found in the garage of the house my mother moved to after he second divorce. The leather pouch that I’ve held onto for 12 odd years. It once heals hag stones, and before that it held dollar coins.

But now it holds my Rosary.

Tomorrow night I will be engaging in on of the most well documented of pagan traditions…

Converting to Catholicism

As such, I have made myself a single decade paracord penal rosary

Incorporated into it are the following…

1. The Icelandic Wolf Cross, also known as the Vargkors or the Fossi Cross (where is was discovered in 1910) that serves as a reminder of my roots, my path going forward, and as a version of Saint Peter’s cross, which is fitting as I’ve chosen him as my patron saint.

2. A wolf’s head in place of the Our Father bead. For out of all of gods creations, I love wolves the most. For though they are often misunderstood, viewed as evil, and dangers to the livestock tended by Shepards. They set an example of leading their families, caring for their young, and keeping balance in the environment where they reside (Ex. Yellowstone)

3. The Triskele. An ancient symbol, and one often associated with Pagan practice and history. But ultimately it is a symbol that represents trinity’s. Life-Death-Rebirth, Mind-Body-Spirit, Earth-Sea-Sky, Maiden-Mother-Crone. So why would it not also represent The Trinity of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

I am happy with the symbolism behind my choices. And I am looking forward to Baptism and Confirmation tomorrow night. There is a long history held by the Catholic Church. Both good and not so good. But they keep excellent records, and I am looking forward to learning more of their history and practices.

'The gloves are off' Gniewosz, also known as Gotard, sat down for a moment to rest and catch his breath. Since he lost his horse two days ago, this pursuit became much more of a struggle and with every step through this frozen wasteland his armor felt heavier and heavier. He has been following the Teutonic raiding party through the frozen Baltic for many days. They were heading north. Among the dozens of those poor souls captured by rejza, was his beloved Milena. Gotrad had once visited these area with his father and recognized the coastline of a land known as Courland.Those damned Teutonic Knights are heading towards Alschwangen Castle - He thought. He knew had to do something before they got there or he would never see his golden-haired Milena again! Thoughts were swirling in his head, a strange rush took over his body. Heart started pounding. Blood in the mouth, pain, sweat, panting and growling. He was beginning to lose control! “Pull yourself together! You are a knight, you made a vow! You swore before your Father, before God! You mustn’t! Naaaaaagrrr!" He howled, curled up, his body tensed so much that every part of his armor began to creak. "Agrrrrrrr!". He threw off his armored gloves, tore off the sleeves of gambeson and ran through the forest. Driven by his inner beast, by his curse.

Otto - an experienced Teutonic soldier - focused his gaze on the tree line. Something was lurking there. He shook the shoulder of his comrade, Ludolf. "Ludolf, hast du dieses furchterregende Heulen gehört?" Ludolf didn't even raise his head. "Nein. Keine Ahnung, wahrscheinlich Wölfe. Warum regst du dich so auf? Hast du Angst vor Wölfen?" Otto stood up and nervously grabbed his spear. Something inhuman was rushing toward them. "Gott schütze uns. Wërwolf!"

multiple times in this series we see james say something, watch how it lands, and then decide that it is a joke, which is a) a fucking fantastic character beat for a pre-villainous arc and b) puts some real interesting light on him calling sherlock pretty

Some days I pray for silence

And Some days I pray for soul

Some days I just pray to the gods of Sex and Drums and Rock an’ Roll

#meat loaf #I’ll do anything for love but I won’t do that #these lines just scratch that itch in my brain real good #rock n roll

God I love how physical James is in this show. Dude is an animal. And just enjoying life to the fullest.

Crashing parties

Breaking windows

Punching people

Flirting with everyone

Fighting everyone

Sleeping with his best friends sister

Throwing goons into walls
