A commission from @waferwyyan / @artwaferwyyan for me! I love "Die Legenden der Albae" / "The Legends of the alfar" so much since 15 years already! And I finally got fanart for it!

The original scene is different of course but I was thinking "What if Sinthoras was there instead of Timanris?

There’s never anything wrong with what you do, Albert~ <3

Green, slimy, beach balls.

This is a photo from Dee Why Beach, on Australia’s East Coast north of Sydney in 2014. Yeah, it’s covered with small green balls.

This is actually a bloom of a unique type of algae called marumo (or marimo depending on who is spelling it). The name was given by a Japanese botanist in the late 1800 s and translates to “bouncy play ball” or something like that. In Iceland they’re referred to as kúluskítur, which I’m told translates to “ball muck”.

The algae is growing on rocks. The algae grows around the rock mostly covering it, and then on occasion the algae/rock will be hit by the right current to knock it loose, sending it rolling around the ocean floor and possibly up onto the coastline.

These algae balls have been seen around the world, but only on rare occasions, sometimes with years in-between sightings.

I tried to draw the baes Caphalor and Sinthoras from the legends of the alfar! I love them and I hope you like the drawings.

°•° My June bestfriends °•° . I started to read the series all over again. I... I can't stop fall in love with these characters again and again and again... It's almost a torture! 😅 . I feel Caphalor's pain every single time and it's... absolutely, beautifully, heartbreaking. I love that part. Maybe more than anything. . Guys, if you enjoy fantasy just a liiiiiiiiittle bit, you NEED to read this series. Ulldart sagas' also a really great one. But I love the dwarves and albae's (I think it's "älfar" in English...?) adventures more 😍 . . . With love, - E . . .

The Queen’s Reign event was a total bloodbath but I’ve been in love with the possibility of more rich red attire ever since.
