So...
Update post!
We have a Discord Server in the works!! It's mostly set up, and we plan to release it to the general public at a follower milestone (50 as of right now... but your Author is impatient so you guys might get it early!!)
In this server, we plan to have a few special things!!
Added community!! You guys will be able to talk to each other... and to us, your authors!!
Special events!
Exclusive content!!!
And... more regular updates!!! Most of our planning takes place on Discord, so we'll be able to give you content updates right from the source ^^
Again, this is a Work in Progress! We'll see how long it takes.
On top of that!!! The rest of Flock 13 is now on this blog! You'll be seeing intros from them personally shortly, along with (probably..) links to their personal blogs and other websites! Keep a lookout!
Also, we've been having problems finding a consistent posting schedule, along with finding things to post... so much stuff, so little time! We'll try to get that together, but apologies in the meantime.
~Sirius, Flock 13

Lore Post #2!!
Regarding Kin, and part of the lore surrounding the rebellion that caused them.
Astoren, before the course of our (hopefully) beloved story, was divided into two sections in a vicouse civil war. After these battles, the losers were subjected to execution, all their children under the age of 16 forced to bear witness. These children were then labelled kin, and branded on their backs or torsos with the design of a dragon emblem. All kin are forced to become riders when they come of age (20). There are currently 13 years of kin that are serving, the youngest were only 2 when the rebellion ended.
Kin are horribly mistreated in Astorian society, being considered lower than the poorest in the slums. They were spread among the royal family and their close court to be servants.
Kin have had to survive a variety of tragedies in order make it to where they are today. Although these events are important to Kin lore, they are better saved for another day. Be on the lookout for those posts!!
Intro post:
Hello!! I am the author of the up and coming Astoren Saga. Originally, I was posting everything on my main blog (@sirithesillies), but I've since decided to make Astoren it's own blog. We're currently in the beginning stages of production, planning release sometime around 2027.
About the story:
Astoren is a saga that takes place in a currently unnamed fantasy world. It follows multiple main characters a book, however our two "main" characters out of our POV having cast are named Silas and Kylo. The series follows them (and all of the other characters) as they juggle with the struggles of becoming a full fledged dragon rider, as well as finding out about how corrupt their government really is. As the series covers a variety of more mature topics (such as grief), it is rated as a young adult series. We as a Tumblr Blog will never post mature topics unless properly labeled however, so no need to worry there!!
About the Team:
Astoren's worldbuilding and development is still overseen almost entirely by the author (see below!!), but there is a small but dedicated team who works on the project together, in order to see writing can start in earnest as fast as possible. These include dedicated proof readers, Country Parents(™), and other such roles. Labeled Flock 13 for the unimaginable amounts of chaos that goes on behind closed doors.. Luv y'all though <3
A/N: My heart goes out to these guys, this project wouldn't be possible without their help. Even though it's mostly a group of my closest friends, the work these people have done has been incredible.
About the Author:
Hihi!! The person you see writing all of these posts is none other than me: Sirius Bloom, August Bloom, or SLNB/ALNB. I go by many names ;)
Astoren is my first dive into the writing world (officially, I've been around for a while!! If you know my old fic accounts, no you don't..), and I hope to make a splash!! This is my baby, a passion project that I hope to make public and share to the world one day. I hope everyone enjoys it *half* as much as I do. I will gladly be reading all comments, answering as many questions, etc. as this project grows. This blog is simply to share the progress of this project, and to make it known as best we can.
Blessed be!
