Pardon my french, literally, it is much better on paper than it is when I open my mouth. As with most languages, including my native one. I am simply not gifted with a decent vocal pattern.
If I said anything wrong please correct me, it is very hard for me to reproduce sounds exactly as I’m simply incapable of making some of them. But I try my very hardest. Anyways enjoy this short video of me singing, I’ve been obsessed with this song and I was in a good mood today!
This small prayer book is bound in enamelled gold and gemstones. It was purchased in 1538 by King Francis I of France as a gift for his niece. The gems consist of carnelian (two intaglios and eight cameos), rubies (27 polished pieces), turquoise (24 cabochons) and rhodolite (one faceted stone in the book’s clasp that has been described as tourmaline since 1942). Most of the rubies were mined from the Mogok area of Burma (now Myanmar). Based on historical considerations, the turquoise could have originated from Persia or possibly Uzbekistan, and the carnelian from either India or Saxony. The faceted rhodolite from India or Sri Lanka, was most likely added to the clasp between 1842 and 1884. [view large]
I think Lyney will be pretty interesting especially if he’s the main character introducing us to Fontaine (similarly to like collei and tighnari being the first characters for sumeru). The relationship between magic and law to the truth are very counter to each other, because magic presents falsehood as the truth while law is meant to uncover the truth and judge impartially based on it. I think the fact that we’re seeing a family of magicians in our first banner instead of a judge or a lawyer means a lot of fun things are in store for the Fontaine justice system in terms of how it handles falsehoods presented to it and how it judges what it perceives to be truth.

Set against the backdrop of China's Cultural Revolution, a secret military project sends signals into space to establish contact with aliens. An alien civilization on the brink of destruction captures the signal and plans to invade Earth. Meanwhile, on Earth, different camps start forming, planning to either welcome the superior beings and help them take over a world seen as corrupt, or to fight against the invasion.
i love the french creators and their relationship with bbh. they don’t have a ‘he’s my friend, he can nothing wrong’ mentality about him. they have a very ‘he’s my friend, he can do so much wrong, but i want to be there to help him just as he’s always helped me’ mentality. it’s endearing
