I place little stock in those that claim to read portents and omens, those that say they can predict the weather from the fall of chicken bones, or tell of impossible destine written in the stars are just as often charlatans as they are true mystics.
This doesn't mean I don't believe in divination, I've seen it first hand, watched with no small wonder as even apprentice diviners have told me the result of a still rolling dice, or called the correct face of a still twirling coin. I had the rare, and incredible pleasure to watch the Arch-Diviner of the Grand University at work, curling fate around her fingers like a jeweller bends and curls golden wire. But lately, I have been plagued with, visions is the wrong word to describe them, they are, despite my unwillingness to admit it, closer to portents and omens.
From a shifting in a cloud bank to turning of a tree branch in the wind, each one to me seems, seems to foretell something, but what, how or when I struggle to grasp. I find keeping hold of these revelations like trying to keep a grip of damp sand: Too loosely and it slides through my fingers, and if I squeeze tight they go to fragments and pieces. This painfully recent development has me questioning the soundness of my own mind, or failing that the extent of whatever strange new power I've been granted.
What troubles me more than is where these omens come from, what now, after all my years of study and my understanding of magic, what now has caused this ability to appear now. Lieutenant Duffy gave me a set of dice, whale bone dice, before I left the Galleon, carefully carved with beautiful numbers and expertly weighted to roll just right. He said they were cut from the bones of the whale I had hunted with them, although saying I took part in the hunt is woefully inaccurate. Perhaps that is the source of his maddening change, a curse laid upon dice I haven't truly earned, some ancient mariner's curse.
But no, I think there is another explanation, although no one less maddening. There are a number of tales of mages driven mad by exposure to things beyond mortal reasoning, creatures of pure chaos and order both are said to have this effect. And onto that, there are the things that lope and dance beyond the edge of the fire light that is the planes, those strange, impossible inhabitants of the distant realms that poke and prod and probe from beyond the borders that keep them separate from our realities.
As I stare into the dying embers of the fire by which I sit, watching the rain pound the rocks and trees, hidden safe in the small time-worn crevice in the cliff face, and I see the shapes of possibilities I can't comprehend spin and dance before my eyes, another possibility bubbles in the depths of my mind. A brand that sits, still burning in my thoughts. That great, black pearl of an eye and that which took it's place...
What I wish to understand most, is was this meant as a curse for my wrong doing, for my standing aside and doing nothing, or a blessing for helping release it?
Why general entry accounting services is beneficial our business
General entries are the soul and heart of a business's financial transaction activity. It keeps a separate record of the ‘what, how, where, and when’ of a financial transaction. It's interesting to find that General Entries is a brief description of the transaction and the accounts affected. In other words, a general entry is the record of your business transactions in the accounting books of the business. It consists of an accurate date, amount, credit and debit description, and a unique reference number.
General Entries in Accounting
General entries are one of the basic principles of accounting. They are used to record the main balances or transactions in a company's books and keep track of both current assets and liabilities. General Entries have two sides. One is the credit side and the other one is the debit side. Both sides are equal.
1. Credit side- The credit side includes liability, revenue, and equity balances that are subtracted from expense and asset accounts.
2. Debit side- The debit side talks about the expense and asset accounts and gets subtracted from liability, revenue, and equity balances.
General Entries- Fundamental Building Blocks of a Business
It is essential to accurately and completely fill journal data in order. Most of the general ledger and financial reports that are based on this data are accurate and correct. A general entry includes the information crucial to one particular business transaction, such as the date, the amount to be credited and debited, a succinct description of the transaction, and the accounts impacted. It may include a list of the impacted subsidiaries, tax information, and other details, depending on the business. Recurring journal entries can be automatically created using templates in modern accounting software, reducing the chance of error.
The foundation of all financial reporting is comprised of journal entries. As a result, it is necessary to confirm transactions and double-check the accuracy of the accompanying journal entries. Regardless of whether the transactions are finished manually or electronically, the credits and debits on the impacted accounts must be assigned in accordance with accepted accounting principles.

Duskwalker returns to Cybertron, but before continuing down to the planet she speaks with Naomi, her on-board AI, about the planet they’re returning ‘home’ to.
“Duskwalker, is something the matter?” Naomi, the on-board AI, asked in a worried tone. The AI had long ago developed her own personality, concerns, and habits of behaving more like a creator unit to Duskwalker than an artificial intelligence; it made Duskwalker smile despite the gnawing sense of unease in her spark.
“Naw,” she said, pulling her legs up onto the oversized captain's chair. It was much, much too big for her, sized for Renegade who often stood chest and shoulders above other mechs. Considering she was only, roughly, four meters tall or fourteen feet she looked like a child sitting in an adult's chair. It allowed her to curl her legs around and wrap her tail over top of them so the tip dangled off the edge of the green colored chair. Everything about the ship was a deep green, a color that Renegade seemed to have an obsession with considering it was the same color as his chassis. Of course he was also rather clever; anyone invading the ship would therefore have a difficult time making him out from the rest of the ship.
“You do not seem as though nothing is the matter,” Naomi chided, concerned, “You have not moved the ship away from Cybertron's moon for some hours now. Have you changed your mind? You know Renegade would welcome you back to the colony with open arms and look to the ends of the universe for the best medical instructor for you.”
“No, I haven't changed my mind and I know he would; I don't know that there isn't anything Renegade would do for me, and I appreciate that. It's also the reason I want to make him proud and do this on my own,” Duskwalker leaned back and wrapped her arms around her abdomen, her tail tip twitching as she studied the planet on the view screen in front of her.
“Renegade is already proud of you,” Naomi reminded her and Duskwalker smiled, leaning her helm back and closing her optics. Even though she knew he was hearing someone say it warmed Duskwalker's spark. “But I understand what you mean, I too wish to make my creator proud and I will do that by ensuring you are happy and healthy wherever you choose to roam. I will always stand by your side, Duskwalker,” and Naomi had for so long. To every battle field Duskwalker visited, with all the wounded she helped to transport to safe havens, and the supplies she brought to ailing colonies. Even when Duskwalker insisted they help the last survivors of an organic race that had nearly been wiped out on one of the planets her people had fought for energon on. Naomi had been there for her and Renegade had always been waiting for her to return home.
“It looks fragile doesn't it?” Duskwalker asked, opening her optics and changing the subject.
“Cybertron?”
“Yes,” Duskwalker agreed, watching the planet as it hung floating in space. So many worlds had been described as blue, green, or red jewels floating in space due to their atmosphere, but Cybertron looked like a world like no other. Metal, glowing with energon and life, and tall spires gracing portions of it, but it also looked ready to crumble at any moment. There were areas that were still entirely dark despite the fact the planet was once more living. It made Duskwalker sad, but also determined, and afraid all at the same time. It was really a rather confusing mixture.
“Do you really think it can be brought all the way back?” Duskwalker asked Naomi, concern lacing through her words.
“'Anything can be done, so long as you don't give up and have the will to do it' I believe you once said, Duskwalker,” Naomi told her and Duskwalker's optics, and biolights, lit up brighter in embarrassment. Really what was she doing tossing out fragged-up lines like that? Of course she had been speaking to a mech who was certain he was going to deactivate and, once he had, would never join with the Well of All Sparks due to it being long dark. She was no councilor, but she could not let the mech despair. Duskwalker wanted to be a medic and therefore she had to learn how to heal all aspects of a Cybertronian. From mind, to body, to spark, she wanted to learn it all and that was why she'd come here to Cybertron. She was hoping to find the teacher she needed; she had heard the medic Ratchet had returned to the planet and at his side the Decepticon medic who'd tended to Lord Megatron. What better teachers could she ask for than the ones who saw to the health and well being of the leaders of each faction? Even if they were unable to teach her Duskwalker felt it was important to finally learn what Cybertron looked like, to see where her people came from. She'd only been on the planet for so short a time after emergence from the Well.
With a sigh Duskwalker leaned her head on her hand, fanning her fingers out over her forehead, and puffed air out of her vents; trying to remember everything she could about the edge of the Well, but there was so little she could picture. A glowing brilliance, shining metal, and then that was it. No sensations, no real emotions, just empty blackness.
“What is it that makes you hesitate then?”
“The idea I might be... disappointed,” Duskwalker admitted finally, “I've seen so many planets now, filled with life and so many cultures, what if in comparison I find Cybertron lacking? It's supposed to be our home, shouldn't I be feeling something other then worry over disappointment? I mean... I don't even know what it is to be homesick. I've always lived on this ship, or with Renegade at the colony, I've never not had a home and in comparison so many Cybertronians have been drifting through space, no where to go, no planet to call their own, and now they have a chance to have their home back after losing it. What if I can't connect with them? What kind of medic will I be if I can't sympathize with that?”
“You don't have to have lost your home to sympathize with someone who has, Duskwalker,” Naomi told her, “you have a gentle, loving, spark. One I worry about being hurt all the time whenever you extend your hand in kindness. Your help hasn't always been welcomed, you've been attacked for it, but you always keep moving forward as though it doesn't matter others have rejected or hated you for it. I don't think you will have difficulty connecting with your own people, not when you have such concern for them and their happiness.”
“Naomi you make me sound like a sentimental idiot,” Duskwalker complained.
“Better a sentimental idiot than a cruel genius,” Naomi pointed out.
“But sentimental idiots are normally manipulated by cruel geniuses and end up hurting people,” Duskwalker said with distaste.
“Well then it is a good thing you are not an idiot. Perhaps a little too trusting, too willing to give second chances, but I don't think you would be tricked into hurting someone,” Naomi reassured her. Duskwalker nodded in half-sparked agreement. Still she wasn't sure she much cared for the description Naomi had given of her. Duskwalker wasn't some kind of Saint, she was just a medic or she wanted to be a medic; she had yet to earn her seal, her sigil. Sure she had a dream, an ambition, to prove you didn't have to be someone of significance, or a Prime, to make a difference in the world around you, but she'd never let that dream bring harm to someone else even if it meant Duskwalker had to give it up.
“M'sorry, I should just have us move on to Renegade's workshop... have you been able to pick up on it? Is it still functioning?”
“Yes. I've scanned the area and the doors should open upon my approach. I can remain hidden there while you go out and about, exploring, before you decide to go speak to the Autobots.”
“You know me too well,” Duskwalker said wryly. She hadn't planned on going to the Autobots first up, she wanted to have a look around the planet and learn a little bit about her own people's home before she tried to integrate herself with it. She still couldn't decide where to explore first; Iacon, Crystal City, or Vos, three places she'd had described to her in such detail she could picture them in her mind. Would the ruins measure up to her expectations of how grand these three cities had been?
“Yes, but I hope you will be careful. Cybertron may have been dark for a long time, but there are still creatures on the surface that would be all too willing to have you as a snack,” Naomi reminded her, “also we do not know that the Decepticons and Autobots have stopped fighting all together. If a battle breaks out I expect you to find cover, furthermore you remember which mechs you must avoid at all costs?”
“Yes,” Duskwalker said, smiling, “Renengade had me sit and stare at their images for hours when I first told him I wanted to go out and act as field medic.”
“Good,” Naomi said, “because we cannot be certain they have not returned to Cybertron,” Duskwalker flicked her tail admittedly a little nervous at the idea. She wasn't defenseless, but she specialized in close-ranged combat only. Her primary strategy was to knock the opposing mech off balance and, if she could, knock them unconscious with her batons or connected staff and run away. If she was caught at long distance she was to use her surroundings to fade away. Her matte paint in dark browns was meant to help swallow any light shining down on her and she could close off her biolights to hide herself. That she was so small played to her advantage as she could wiggle her way into smaller spaces and better hide herself.
“So,” Naomi continued, “shall we move on?”
“Yes,” Duskwalker said, straightening herself up and moving to the edge of the chair, “engines ahead full, landing coordinates set...” she hesitated and then, with an odd sense of joy in her spark she hadn't thought to experience, she said:
Looking forward to the next semester (general, 14/12/11)
After all the stress of deadlines gone it now gives me some time to reflect on what I've learnt this past semester. Most of the lesson objectives have been new to me and I feel that under the pressure of having to learn all these new skills I've done quite well and learned quickly. I feel I am strongest at CAD as I am already quick on computers I had a slight advantage. I find I am weakest at sewing, I still need to quickly and effectively thread a machine and wind a bobbin but I know this will come with practice. My illustration is getting increasingly better the more I practice and I am now feeling a lot more confident about drawing than I was when I first started. I have learnt a handful of new handy skills to use increase my knowledge of the industry like how to create mood boards and colour boards by hand an on the computer. I am really looking forward to all the new things I'm going to learn next semester!
So, one of my so-called friends insisted that I join Tumblr as a less annoying option than making a fake fb account so I don't feel so self-conscious fully expressing my views on certain things...
Thus, this Tumblr account is born.
Thing You Should Know About The Author:
I are one of those flighty woman nerds. I have a subscription to Discover magazine, play vidya games of various types and genres, and I have this pipe dream to someday finish a fantasy novel.
Dungeons & Dragons will forever be my first love.
The second love of my life is this really cool guy I'm planning to marry and stuff. His name is super badass.
I live in a very conservative town, and work in a very conservative environment. I myself am of a very liberal outlook.
I am not religious. I'm one of those wishy-washy trendy people who goes by the mantra 'spiritual'. And as such...
Self-righteous religious people drive me nuts. Good for you if you believe something, I have no qualms with you. It's when you start flaunting it, shoving it down peoples' [or worse, kids'] throats that I start to get pissed off.
In summary: You're allowed to have your beliefs, and I'm allowed to think it's a load of tripe.
I think dinosaurs are about the coolest things ever.
