State of the Kingdom - 27.05.2023

Story

I actually managed to finish "The Court Wizard" - didn't think I would but that's how this usually goes. I say "there is no way I get this finished in time" publicly and then my brain goes  into stubborn "but what if I did?" Mode. And here we are. Some 50k words of Zargothrax mischief. 

The Covers are all sketched out, but there are 23 of them and only 5 are outlined yet. Since the story itself still needs some edits for sure that checks out time wise. So nothing today, probably next week too since I won't be around much next week in the first place (some minor hospital stuff)

Will try for the 10th of June to start uploading this one. 

Website

I pushed out a major update to the side last month, including:

Addition of all Gloryhammer / ULF pictures uploaded so far (aka. Like 250 pictures uploaded which drove me near insane by monotony despite writing a dedicated mass upload function for it) - now only the Story Covers are missing.

Updates to the look and feel of the gallery

Major additions to the Wiki, including a now extra page for all Characters. I added a lot already, not all of them have info yet, but they grab all the relevant pictures from the gallery and display them for each character which I think is pretty neat! 

Also added files for some other things like the Hammer and the Planets Hatir and Tyr!

Major overhaul of the Theshvo Page - now ordered with sense. Disclaimer; I have no clue about grammar. I barely know what word is what kind of word on the best of days xD

Art

The last of the more random art is getting out now, after that there is a whole set of ones I'm really happy with. Seemed like I had an episode there xD One RttKoF art thing too is queued for the release week of the album!

Anyone with a Bible and a platform can stand up and talk to others about how they should live their lives, how they should respond to challenges they face, and how they ought to handle themselves. It doesn’t take a special person to preach. However, it does require a real love for God to practice it. It does require real loyalty to God to not turn on Him when things doesn’t suit us. It does require a real believer to live in the light of His truth no matter how uncomfortable it makes us.

Oh no poor Cao Pi and his doomed crush on the empress

[drivingsideways]

ok, all the Villains (TM) need to stop with the heinous cackling laughter every two minutes it doesn’t make you sinister, just ridiculously annoying

[thafourth]

I say again, your love cannot save them. Your love cannot heal their pain. Your love cannot free from their captivity. This world needs Me, says the LORD. Give them Me by letting Me fill you, expand you, enlarge your heart and increase your capacity to love

Nothing can derail God’s plan for your life. Whatever you’ve been through, it has only made you better, stronger and wiser. So don’t be occupied in your mind with regret, but rather be thankful. Don’t live in the “what if’s” of the past, but rather be thankful, for God will make it benefit you and someone else going through the same experience. God will make it work for you, not against you, and the devil can’t stop the restoration power of God.

Fear

“Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.” Joshua 1:9, NKJV Three times God told Joshua to be of good courage and to not be afraid. That is the same thing God is saying to you. Don’t be afraid of your circumstance because He will deliver you. Don’t be afraid of where He is taking You because He is with You. Fear will keep us in the same place and we don’t find ourselves experiencing anything new in life. Fear will cause you to accept being comfortable where you are, instead of being excited about where you are going. It will tell you that you can’t do great things, so you have to settle for what you have. Like Joshua, your promise land is ahead and only be of good courage. Go get what God says is yours. God is commanding you to go get your blessing! Go get what He has for you. Keep God’s word before you and do it, because it will be the key to your success. Prayer: Father, you have told me to not be afraid, but be of good courage. I can do what You are instructing me to do. It is time to enter into what You have for my life and I will be unafraid. Through You, I can do it! I am designed and equipped to do what You have called me to do. I will go forward and possess the land you have for me. Help me keep Your word before me, and I thank You for it bringing me good success. In Jesus’ name, Amen. (Scriptural reading: Joshua 1:1-9, Philippians 4:13)
