TIL a family in Georgia claimed to have passed down a song in an unknown language from the time of their enslavement; scientists identified the song as a genuine West African funeral song in the Mende language that had survived multiple transmissions from mother to daughter over multiple centuries (x)

In 1997 Amelia’s daughter, Mary Moran, and other members of the Moran family were invited to Sierra Leone, West Africa, where they were welcomed in Freetown by Sierra Leone’s President and then flown by helicopter to the country’s interior.  There, in the small village of Senehun Ngola, Mary and Bendu Jabati met and sang this song together for the first time.  Years earlier, Bendu’s grandmother had told her that this song, which had been passed down in her village from mother to daughter for centuries, would one day reunite her to long-lost relatives.

In addition to finding out where in Africa her ancestors were abducted into slavery, Mary Moran discovered the meaning of the Mende song: a processional hymn for the final farewell to the spirit, it was sung in Senehun Ngola by women as they prepared the body of a loved one for burial.

(The OP's link leads to a site with a recording of the song sung by both Mary Moran and her mother, Amelia)

I really really love my monk but I am hoping against all hope that blizzard gives us mag’har druids because monk is painful to play for extended periods of time lmao

But anyhow. Ka’tija my Bleeding Hollow babe. Witch of the Wild, shapeshifter, Life-mender and an overall very, very good orc lady.

Sketch of my most beloved character, Ashton in her current incarnation. I’ll probably line and color it at some point idk

Aventurine deAvris. Void tentacles sprouting from her back and a lower metal jaw clamped shut lest she start screaming in the tongue of the Old Gods.

She went from a forsaken to an undead elf....and now she’s going to be a Void Elf.

Nightborne High Astromancer, Reila Astravis. I can honestly hardly believe that I’m going to be able to have her in the game as an actual Nightborne. The downside is...I’m gonna have to re-level her. Oh well!

(Collab between me and @orcbait-art)

My Nightborne lady Reila Astravis. 

She’s absolutely gorgeous and I want to make 53465675 outfits for her and RP her a lot and I just love her and her eternally unimpressed self forever.
