Yunda, the matriarch of the clan, has five daughters, each from a different father. She rules with an iron fist, and her daughters are her right-hand women and take care of the economy.

A clan hostile to Yunda wanted to take her lands by force. The clan leader ordered the kidnapping of one of her daughters to force Yunda to surrender. Her youngest daughter, who was still a teenager, was kidnapped, which enraged Yunda.

Her eldest daughters devised a plan to rescue their sister. Together with their mother, they led an attack and rescued Kopin. Yunda personally beheaded the leader, making it clear to everyone that no one would dare touch her daughters.

for the ask game you reblogged, please may i get a (1), (2), and esp (7) or (11)? your blog has piqued my interest and i feel like those are the ones that provide some context to an artist /np /nf ^^

Of course!

My top oc designs are probably a three way tie between Rune (my fursona), a funky little guy named Petrachor, and a dragon lemur named Seraph!

And since I can’t decide who I like the best, I’ll mention something about all three.

Rune is a personification of me while still being a character, so he takes after things I am or want to be: creative, adventurous, silly, optimistic, n the like. In so, his big ol’ fox tail is a paintbrush! His glasses were also fun because I kept having to find justifications to how they stay on his face lol (currently it’s a spring mechanism that grips his snoot).

Petrachor was inspired by the idea of angelic hierarchy, and how if there’s an archangel then there’s gotta be, like, a bottom of the rung office worker intern angel, thus Petrachor. His design is based around, funnily enough, Pain from the animated Hercules, as well as MLP ponies.

Seraph is a combo lemur and dragon from @montesmithart and I liked the vibes so I made one. My favorite bit about her is her horns make a halo, which was a pain to render over and over.

Phew, that was a lot for one! On to two!

kinda touched on before, but I relate most to Rune, because he’s me to an extent. We do differ in ways, I.e. he’s a bit of a mess, clumsy as heck, and would jump tail over ears into a dangerous situation if it was cool sounding without thinking twice, but that all ends up being exaggerated aspect of myself too.

Next!

Rune is…not smart. I mean, he’s intelligent, but he doesn’t do wise things with it. He’d build a toaster by himself but it would be powered by fifty angry skunks that are seconds from breaking free. He’d doesn’t think about the consequences until he’s regretting them because they’re in his face.

Aaaaand finally!

My process for making oc’s is pretty varied! Rune came about after existing in my head for years as a kid long before I was an artist until eventually I put him to paper. Petrachor exists after somebody on magma (the drawing website) made an archangel and I thought ‘you know what would be funny?’ Seraph came around after seeing a cool species and wanting to make one! But the most consistent way I make oc is as DnD characters! So yeah, I do a little of all the above: Petrachor was a role I wanted to see, Seraph was a motherly vibe and a design, Rune was a fox design that evolved over years and years, and a grab back of others came from character ideas for DnD games. (For example, this is Solin, who is a DnD character who started as a faceless suit of armor character, that changed because I wanted to do someone based of fire symbolism)

Aaaanyway thanks for asking! I love to ramble, so if you wanna know more about anyone I mentioned, please ask! They all have lore of some kind!

Temple of Dionysus or Liber

Salona, Dalmatia, Croatia

~1st century CE

The temple of Dionysus or Liber was Tetrastyle Corinthian pronaos temple dedicated to Dionysus/ Liber. The temple consisted of a square cella and a deep vestibule with four massive Corinthian columns.

Walls encircled the town as early as the 2nd century BCE as it was considered an important military center. At the time, the Romans were involved in a series of campaigns to conquer Dalmatia and Salona seesawed several times between local and Roman control.

Sometime between 40 BCE and 33 BCE (the exact date is uncertain) Salona became a Roman colony named Colonia Martia Ivlia Salona. Roman traders and war veterans flocked to the town and under Emperor Augustus it became the capital of the Roman province of Dalmatia.

Throughout the first century CE, Salona developed rapidly. The expanded city was fortified with strong walls and towers, especially on the more vulnerable northern side. In the southeastern side, a Forum was erected and next to it a theatre that held 3500 people. A century later, an amphitheatre was built that held up to 17,000 spectactors. At its height, the population may have reached 60,000 people, making it one of the largest towns in the Roman empire.
