Parul is dressing her cute Nirala up all pretty.
Madhubala in Nirala 1950
I CAN FINALLY INTRODUCE YOU GUYS! Honestly I want to make custom accents for these two. I can’t find ones out right now I like for them... *blows raspberry*
@diveremblem @avalonianrising IT IS TIME!!
Please me Parul, a young princess of the Sirenia Empire and the current ambassador to their new allies, the Clan of the Den-Tree. Awkward at first, Parul is finding it progressively easier to relax among her new friend. She loves dancing but feels she’s no good at it and gets embarrassed if anyone were to catch her dancing by herself at the rives edge.
She met Nirala the Kelpie Herder, at the river that breaks the border between the forest and the plains, as the Naiad lead her herd across the shallows where the large beasts are uncomfortable fully submerging themselves. Nirala is a part-dragon river spirit who hails from the Mists, lured away by a fellow child of the Mists, Alona, she brought her small herd with her to roam the rivers picking up dirt and scavenging around. While her Kelpies move and hunt, they push the currents they have melded with, kicking up loose dirt and herding fish. Nirala, moving in the currents behind them, will pick up interesting items she finds in the river, bringing them to the clan.
Parul was enamored at first sight. As Nirala passed the same spot at a set time every other day, Parul began to wait for her and talk with her. Nirala even began waiting for Parul in turn, taking breaks at a specific spot, excited to hear more stories from the young Guardian. As Parul got close to Nirala she increasingly ended up butting heads with the only male Kelpie and Nirala’s right-hand-man in the herd, Ekuriv. Literally, at one point. She headbutt him when he charged at her and got in her face. The two girls still laugh about it, tho Parul made Nirala swear secrecy, getting embarrassed at the idea of that story getting spread around.
Nirala is a Naiad, a water spirit similar to Dryads, but her heritage is a little unique, as she, like her parents, have draconic heritage. She was even born from an egg laid while her mother was in her own draconic form, leading to her true form having a unusual appearance for an elemental spirit. Her soul attuned to the constantly flowing energy of river waters, she has the ability to disperse her body seamlessly with fresh water and travel as a current, but in salt water it pains her to use that same natural magic and so she reverts to her true-born form when she wishes to play and chase her girlfriend, Parul- who can effortlessly take Maren form and enjoys taking Nirala out into the Sea just off the coast of the Plateaus.

saw this today and it stuck with me.
"कोटि-कोटि नमन" — Col. Rajyavardhan Rathore, remembering the poet Suryakant Tripathi 'Nirala'
a soldier saluting a poet.
it feels significant.
the man of action honoring the man of feeling. the defender of the land remembering the guardian of its soul.
nirala wasn't just a poet. he was a storm. he broke rules, fought against social injustice with his words, and poured his heartbreak onto the page. his poetry is raw, powerful, and free.
in a world that often asks us to choose between strength and sensitivity, this tribute is a quiet, powerful reminder that both are essential. they are not opposites; they are partners in building something worth defending.
so here’s to the rebels. the poets. the soldiers. the ones who feel deeply and the ones who protect fiercely.
कोटि-कोटि नमन。
(if you’re curious, go read his poem “Saroj Smriti” or “Ram Ki Shakti Pooja”. you won’t regret it.)
