Nott & Fjord!

[rashenditrash]

Also each visit to the hut showed character development.

Fjord, for once, didn't push the red button. He listened. He asked useful questions. And then he went back to the group to consult. Look at our low WIS himbo go!

Beau's offer was self destructive and I don't think her thought process behind it was healthy, but it also showed maturity. While it was a form of self harm I don't think it rose out of self hatred. I think rose out of self awareness. Beau has been alone before. She knows she can handle it. She knows how far she's come and believes (perhaps erroneously) that she will be okay. She sees how much the rest of the M9 need each other and decides she ie the best suited to bear this weight.

Yasha. Yasha sees Beau about to pull her move for what it is immediately and says "No F'n way!". Every step she takes from that initial step in is choosing the M9 over self sacrifice, over her past, over her wishful fantasies. Yasha has always been caught by her past, pulled in different directions and here she says "I choose a future for myself and my friends".

Before I get to Jester I also want to mention how Caleb held back. Caleb, who has been accused in the past of acting too decisively and not considering the group. Caleb who made those incredible decisions to cast wall of fire on Avantika's ship or to save them all by delivering the beacon to the Bright Queen, decided to wait and trust his friends with Nott's salvation. I just think it's beautiful because he loves Nott the most and he trusted the rest of the M9 to take care of her too. Old Caleb would have just mapped out the odds and acted. New Caleb trusted his friends with the possibility they might figure out something he couldn't.

And then there's Jester. I could go on and on like we all are, but in that moment Jester let go of her insecurities and said "Yes I am that bitch". She even tested Isharnai. "I'm so happy, right?", testing if she could see some of the struggles hidden by her sugary exterior. Then she baited her trap with herself. Yasha (and probably Caleb) were already too miserable eh? Well what about a sweet cute teifling girl with no misery to speak of? And then to top it all off she ends up exchanging the exact opposite of misery with the Hag and gets away with it. She proves that even if she doesn't always understand the world or has doubts about her place in it or with the traveller, her way is VALID and awesome.

22nd edition - August 25th, 2017

Although summer isn't over yet, we figuratively bid it goodbye with 22nd edition of Sofar Sounds Krakow. It was a very special day because for the first time ever in history of Sofar Krakow's gigs, it was held in a private house with a decent-sized garden in Łagiewniki, Cracovian district. All of the instruments were set up in the garden. The weather was perfect for such a concert, and mosquitos were having quite a fine supper later that evening.

FJORS, a four-piece band with a wonderful feeling of what they are doing. Usually, they combine the sounds of classical instruments like cello, kalimba or a harp with a bit of electronics, but that day the band played a semi-acoustic set. The songs they prepared for that evening created an extraordinary climate of closeness, and a wonderful and pure voice of the singer filled the air with charm. One can say that people basked in those magnificent tunes. FJORS played songs written mostly in English, except one with Polish lyrics - “Sen” (“A Dream”). It seemed, at the beginning, as another simple love song, but alternatively turned into a strong confession of a broken-hearted soul, and because of those lyrics some people in the audience probably felt the goosebumps on the skin of their arms. When the band ended their set, people were in rapture.

And the good spirit took over the place. The second to play was Leepeck, the talented musician, composer and a songwriter from Warsaw. As he said, his pseudonim derrived from combination of Lee Marvin and Gregory Peck (famous Hollywood actors). He described his music as alternative folk. Leepeck released his debut album “BORDERLINE” in April 2017 and despite a numerous musicians playing on the album on various instruments, at Sofar he played in a duet with Piotr Czajer who played on banjo. Folk connotes with telling great stories on a vaste range of topics, and Leepeck took the greatest and nondepletable theme of love playing and interacting with the audience. Subtle love songs floated in the air and the musician casted a spell on the audience making them feel the summer atmosphere of peace and joy. All of it combined with a soothing voice ideal to ease the pain. If it weren't for the mosquitos, one could lay in the grass, look at the sky and dream.

MITKA with a guest singer Helaine Vis ended the event with a touch of magic. Halaine Vis amazed the audience with her jazzy feeling as well as clean, gentle and captivating voice. The musicians involved in the project, including a trumpet player whose part was exceptionaly good, created a unique mood, a cheerful and peaceful vibe of summer. What a performance! Their set was ideal for the venue and the weather that day. One cover they performed, a song “1335” by Dillon, was so skillfuly played that one could think it was their original song. Vis felt it perfectly. Once again, it was a splendid moment to lay down and enjoy the last warm evenings of the year. The summer may be over in a month or so, but the good spirit will prevail in memories of such events as the 22nd Sofar Sounds Krakow, thanks to the incredibly talented musicians that played on that event and took all of the people gathered there to a one-of-a-kind place where music lovers can find happiness.
