Xiangshuishen 湘水神; The Xiangshuishen or Xiang River Goddesses are goddesses of the Xiang River in Chinese folk religion. The Xiang flowed into Dongting Lake through the ancient kingdom of Chu. The Xiang goddesses were daughters of the Emperor Yao, who were named Ehuang and Nüying who were said to have been married by him to his chosen successor, and eventually emperor, Shun, as a sort of test of his administrative abilities: then, later, they became goddesses, after the death of their husband.

Prompt #4: Baleful

Character: Shousan Xu  ♦  Region: Redacted  ♦  Time: Present Hosted by: @sea-wolf-coast-to-coast​

Blade met metal. The sound of swords clashing with each other—razor-sharp steel slicing through air—resounded in this large room they made their dance hall. Their sparring had only just begun, however he had never been more sorely tested than when he practiced with her. She could read the energy; his moves entirely predicted as she came at him with the intent to fell her foe. The best he could manage was dodging and blocking her precisely, and swiftly, calculated moves. Which spoke malms about his own skill. That he was capable of matching her was impressive enough.

And yet, their dance was over soon after it started. He saw her waver, her footing beginning to slip which prompted him to immediately withdraw. In a fluid motion, he sheathed his blade and reached out to grab her as she fell. Her face pale and turned downcast; her limbs struggling to regain energy. This was becoming more constant as the days went on. Each time they sparred, he noticed she would begin to fall sooner than the time previous. Hearing her pant in his arms, he lamented their fate. This was his fault for not breaking her host sooner.

That was because he was under the impression Nobushige’s mentality would not hold for long in the beginning—the Raen’s mind lacking traits which individuals oft expressed. He was wholly malleable and frailly motivated. If he could’ve been convinced that Hers was best suited as the dominant personality, he would’ve been no more. Then, this wouldn’t be happening. But encountering that person changed everything. The person who challenged Nobushige to want for himself and not others.

He had to be careful about where he held her. When she was given a moment of consciousness, she was made to endure a terrible pain. The Raen’s body scarred with injuries new and old. Though he could not feel a thing, she could. She felt it all. This body didn’t belong to that man anymore and he should learn to treat it better for her sake. Damn his skewered morality. He shouldn’t have to worry about the wants or final wishes of his prey. All should be done in her interests even if it means viewing the rest of the world’s inhabitants as worthless cattle.

Eat, kill, and give her your service eternal. She was too beautiful to be left wanting and ever suffering from this hurt. She was his god. An entire life time of devotion to her…only for this to be their outcome? It wasn’t acceptable. One day, he too would waste away like ash, his skin already littered with dark marks of age. Had he truly the time to save her before she was subjected to the same end?

Everything he had done couldn’t have been in vain. He would not allow it.

Believe me when I say that this artist has gone well above any expectations I could’ve had, and without further ado, I cannot recommend them enough <3 Definitely check out Aersade on artistsandclients if you’re able, as their prices are astronomically affordable for what you’re getting back.

The above pieces were both done for my character, Nuying, and these are just two of her most common presentations in the eyes of others. Since her beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder, her true appearance has yet to be seen. Or has it?

Buying a New Car FAQs | What To Expect From a New Car Warranty

When buying a new car, shoppers often consider the appearance, safety and driving experience first. But the details of a new car warranty are well worth a closer look, and may help consumers find the best value and quality available at their local car lots.

What does a typical car warranty cover? And what about extended warranties? Are these additional costs worth the coverage?

Standard Warranty Coverage

A basic new car warranty covers a period of time (often three years) or an odometer reading distance (often 40,000 miles). The factory warranty coverage expires once either of those conditions have been met.

Some manufacturers also offer extended coverage on the powertrain, spread over a longer period of time and longer distance limitations. Most powertrain warranties provide five years of coverage, or 60,000 miles, on vehicle transmission and engine components.

Extended Warranties

Any vehicle recalls and issues that fall under the basic warranty will be repaired at no cost to you. Once you move beyond those limitations all repair costs become your responsibility. Extended warranties provide additional coverage, tailor-made to your concerns and offering several levels of protection.

Extend the warranty on your new car’s powertrain, or opt for comprehensive coverage on hundreds of parts. These programs cost a substantial amount of money initially, but using a deductible system, extended warranties can save you major money later on. Weigh the options for your own situation – and be sure to choose an extended warranty that suits your lifestyle and driving habits.

You may opt for rust coverage warranty protection as well, to ensure the vehicle body lasts as long as the engine. All of these additional investments add value to your car, but only if you’re comfortable and convinced of that value. Otherwise a standard factory warranty is adequate.

Ask your car dealership about the new car warranty coverage provided when buying a new car. Compare different manufacturers and consider extended warranty coverage to ensure your new vehicle offers optimum protection for today and into the future.
