Have you imagined having more machine-based outfits in Horizon? 👀👀 We did!

Here is the Nora Tallneck armor, drawn by me and wonderfully rendered by @kelsochronicles

This is the start of a new fanart collab series ✨✨✨

Potential Horizon 3 Map

I’m throwing this up as a reference. It’s just fun speculation and I know a lot can happen during development. Horizon is known for leaving little bread crumbs leading into the next game. So, in going off this, and a statement from writing director Ben McCaw, I believe these are mainline quest points for the next game…

Before you speak with Sylens at the end of BS, he’s looking over specific spots on a map of North America. I’ve done my best to surmise what those specific locations are.

Location 1: The northern most point in Canada I could not find any significant settlement names (Canadians help me out here if you know). It all looked like a huge wildlife park preserve. Potential Ban-Ur location?

Location 2: The spot below to the left is very close to Edmonton or Calgary. Maybe Banff? Most likely candidate for Ban-Ur.

Locations 3&4: The two close together is Salt Lake and I think Boise, Idaho. Or some other location in eastern Oregon. Salt Lake is the FAS facility mentioned in the data point collected from Londra (Dagger in my Boot). Most likely Boise is The Claim homeland of the Oseram, and potentially, Elysium. As Elysium was stated to only be “miles” from GAIA Prime.

Location 5: And at the very bottom we have Houston. Hard to pinpoint that because of how much the coastline has changed. However, that’s a very important NASA base so I’m very curious to see what that could entail.

Anyway! If we do get a map this size, WOW. I’m deeply excited at the prospect of finally visiting the homeland of the Oseram and Banuk. Banuk especially.

#OOOH I LOVE THIS #I hadn't even clocked Houston #a NASA angle would be SO COOL especially if we get a quest in space! #god the waiting is going to be so hard

Fic Author Self-Rec!

Fic authors self rec! When you get this, reply with your favorite five fics that you've written, then pass on to at least five other writers. Let’s spread the self-love 💗

Thanks for the tag, @foibles-fables

Here's a list of five of my current faves, even though I don't have a super long list to choose from lol

Going Down in Flames (Baldur's Gate 3, E) Karlach/Female Tav, mostly self-indulgent smut/expansion of the first canon love scene because I needed MORE

Duality (Horizon, E) - my very first Horizon/Ereloy fic, mostly just post-HFW wish-fulfillment with a bit of plot thrown in. There are some things I'd like to fix about it now that it's two years old, but it will always be near and dear as it's what got me into this fandom!

Love Games (Horizon, E) - The fake marriage fic I swore I'd never write and my contribution to the Horizon Big Bang! Was lucky enough to collaborate with the amazing @sorbetowl on this one, and her incredible art is spread throughout

Kindling (Horizon, T) - Angst with a happy ending, featuring demi-Aloy who can't figure out why she has these annoying feelings for Erend and can't think of anything to do but get mad at him about it.

Gathering Flames (Horizon, E) - Smutty post-Love Games one shot. my attempt at a chase fic but with extra feelings

TAGGING: @imamandajulius @emtazer @souls-that-have-senses @littlelionpaw @boobaloof @nerd-artist @i-heart-thunderjaws and anyone else that wants to join in! I'm just terrible at remembering everyone but if you see this consider yourself tagged!

A couple of you wanted to see this Karlach just of her and unfinished. I also love this one too without the background and Gortash to it.

also, our website says a taking longer to update than we thought it would. We should have all of these prints and more ready soon for all of you to purchase. We have quite a few in stock that you won’t have to wait for pre orders too! Thank you again for all of your support. It means so much to us and we look forward to making more soon.

Any Ereloys looking for a discord family?

It's been a VERY exciting and productive Ereloy week so far - all of you creators are amazing and we've been GORGING on your beautiful work!!

In light of the celebration week, we figured this might be a good time to welcome any new (and existing!) Horizon fans into the fold and let you all know about the Two Minutes discord server! HFW just released on PC and is bound to bring in new faces, and we know how vital it can be to connect with fellow fans when you have The Brainrot™.

We're always excited to make new friends, and would love to have you in our community! We are primarily an Ereloy server, but eagerly welcome any Horizon fans that love Erend and don't mind us screaming constantly about our blorbos. 😂

If you'd like an invite, feel free to comment here or send a DM to this blog. We are a warm, friendly bunch and would love to see you there!

(Please note that the server is 21+ only)

Ereloy Week 2024 day 4: Tranquility/“I feel like I can breathe again.”/A place that feels like home

WIP

I didn’t get it done in time, but I wanted to share what I’ve got so far anyway.

This one is basically a visualisation of the things I personally associate with all of the prompts. But I don’t think Aloy and Erend would mind.

#ohhh Laura this is so lovely and peaceful #I’m in love with it!! #you have such a gorgeous style
