Chronic Headaches are Ruining my Life

That is it. I am done letting my damn headaches ruin my life. I have put in for disability and am still working with my doctor to get my headaches under control. I have lost another job thanks to my headaches. I have nearly strained my relationship with my dad to breaking because of my headaches and the fact he does not believe they are not manageable. (this is apparently my own fault).

I am going to move forward and be successful, despite these fucking headaches. I have emergency commissions open. My book is available on Tapas to read. I also have a Patreon to support my work. I want to move forward. Here is a linktree to all of my stuff and my commission prices.

Edit, apparently the links were broken. The issue has been fixed.

Apologies

I wanted to apologize to all of my followers for not posting many faerie facts in a while. You see life has gotten complicated. I have a new job, health problems, a wonderful boyfriend, I may be moving soon, and I'm currently writing my very first book.

I honestly don't think I'll be doing anything more on this blog for quite a while. However, if you like the Faerie facts I write, or just like my writing in general, then I would love for you to follow me to my new lore blog for my book.

Lore From The Shattered Realms covers Fae, Undead beings, Deep folk, Dragons, and Mystical beings. All of which will appear at some point or another in my book series, Tales From the Shattered Realms, which can be found on Tapas.

I'll leave links to both here.

I do hope to hear from some of my longtime followers on there, and I apologize again for letting this blog fall to the wayside. Maybe someday I'll return to it, the world works in mysterious ways.

Reblog from my main blog, not fairy facts but is about faeries!

~Mod Frost

So, I’m writing a book series called Tales From The Shattered Realms, and the first book currently has the first few chapters up on Wattpad. It has magic, faeries, peril, adventure, and is super gay! Maybe read it if you like!

In the deepest woods, there are doors. Not doors you would recognize. They are hidden in the arches of trees, in the swaying branches of a willow, in the dark cave, behind the waterfall.

Do not seek the doors, for they may not lead where you wish to go. There are more places than the Underhill, and not all are nearly so pleasent. Or easy to escape.

Fairy: Hey I didn’t get your name.

Me: Yeah that was on purpose.

Fairy: Oh my god stealing people’s names has been categorized as a war crime for like a hundred years. Do I seem like the kind of fairy that would do war crimes?

Me: Well yes, but that’s just my impression of you personally. Not fairies in general.

Fairy: You’re smarter than I thought.

“Lady Tilda and the Dragon”

Or “Mom Knight” which is what I kept calling it for most of the time I worked on this. This was my story for Valor, a fairy tale anthology I was in last year! It’s a really great book, and I’m so glad I got to be a part of it. You can purchase a copy here.

What do you think of the Icelandic Christmas fuckers called the yule lads

“Icelandic Christmas folklore depicts mountain-dwelling characters and monsters who come to town during Christmas. The stories are directed at children and are used to scare them into good behaviour.” is it just me or is using stories to scare the absolute shit out of children apparently a universal instinct? also, i would be so remiss if i didn’t include the absolutely astounding illustrations. introducing:

THE YULE LADS

ALSO PLEASE BE AWARE OF THE YULE CAT WHO EATS PEOPLE WHO HAVE NOT RECEIVED NEW CLOTHES TO WEAR BEFORE XMAS EVE

tag yourself i’m “uses a hook to steal meat”

Go on the! We’re all pointy ears!

Deals

Never try to strike a deal with one of the fair folk, it will never end well. Some say that the worst deals come from demons, but the Good Neighbors are just as cunning in their trickery.

For example, if one were to wish freedom from responsibility, they may find themselves suddenly transformed into a tree, or a stone, or even a puff of cloud.

And of course, if they have their own desires, they may just lay cards on the table that favor them and not the mortal. Though they will make their desires seem as trivial as a bowl of cream.

Fairies will sometimes disguise themselves as cottonwood seeds floating through the air to travel long distances quickly without being seen, so, if you see a good number of cottonwood seeds flying by all at once chances are one or more of them could be a fairy~~

Oh Goodness Gracious!

I do want to apologize for not being here in such a long time!

I am pleased to announce that we are back! Though some of us have returned to the underhill. We are on the lookout for some fresh fae to help us answer the questions of curious humans. Please, feel free to send us questions about fae and possibly reach out to me to apply to be a Mod!

Quick, send us some questions and we’ll get right on them!

So, a very good friend of mine is going through something awful. Anything will help if you can spare it.

Adder Stone

It is a stone with a naturally occurring hole through it. They are commonly found across the North and Baltic Seas. They are said to have magic powers.

Magic

They were believed to:

Provide protection against eye diseases.

Repel evil charms.

Prevent nightmares.

Cure whooping cough.

Ability to see faeries, witch disguises, and traps when one looks through the hole in the stone.

Recovery from snakebites.

Popular belief states that a true adder stone floats in water.

There are several claims to the origin of the adder stones:

1. Hardened saliva of large numbers of serpents. 2. Made by the sting of an adder. 3. Comes from the head of a serpent. The stone was held in high esteem amongst the druids. It was one of their distinguishing badges, and was accounted to possess the most extraordinary virtues.

Pliny describes the stone as an amulet (Natural History book xix):

“There is a sort of egg in great repute among the Gauls, of which the Greek writers have made no mention. A vast number of serpents are twisted together in summer, and coiled up in an artificial knot by their saliva and slime; and this is called “the serpent’s egg”. The druids say that it is tossed in the air with hissings and must be caught in a cloak before it touches the earth. The person who thus intercepts it, flies on horseback; for the serpents will pursue him until prevented by intervening water. This egg, though bound in gold will swim against the stream. And the magi are cunning to conceal their frauds, they give out that this egg must be obtained at a certain age of the moon. I have seen that egg as large and as round as a common sized apple, in a chequered cartilaginous cover, and worn by the Druids. It is wonderfully extolled for gaining lawsuits, and access to kings. It is a badge which is worn with such ostentation, that I knew a Romanknight, a Vocontian, who was slain by the stupid emperor Claudius, merely because he wore it in his breast when a lawsuit was pending.“
