The plants around me respond by swaying in rhythm, weaving a thick, green tapestry of life, And I swear by the holiness of nature I will use it for good!" ______ Layla Buyunni’s quote

Her lore is inspired by Anne Jefferies and the fairies but I decided to make it darker and bloodier hehe 😝.

[The Lore] CW: Blood, Death.

Across the north where the wind from the south meets the northern sea of Ma’chilga town as if they were lovers from different parts of the world, There, was a happy little girl called Layla Buyunni, She works as a florist and a caregiver to an old lady called ‘Granny Mira’

Layla is known among the people as a happy and carefree girl, let alone a very beautiful and popular girl in the town too. Every day, she finishes her morning chores in Granny Mira's house then she goes to the market to buy groceries so she can cook and prepare a meal for herself and Granny Mira.

This was her daily routine for years until one day, she was cleaning the backyard with a broom, when she heard a rustling in the bushes, at first she didn’t care at all, she continued to clean the backyard until the rusting became more frequent and annoying, she decided to go and see what is hiding behind the bushes and she saw nothing at all, confused, she decided to head back to the yard and continue cleaning it.

This time, she heard a lot of voices and more rustling in many bushes near her, she was beginning to freak out. She clenched her hands onto the broom as if it were a weapon, she gasped with utter shock when she saw 6 dwarves dressed in green and white garbs coming towards her way. They stopped when they came face-to-face with Layla. They looked at her and smiled.

“Hello, Fair Maiden,” The leader of the dwarves greeted her.

Layla was so shocked that she didn’t reply, she kept looking at them and said nothing, at first, she thought she was dreaming or something. Until one of the dwarves climbed on her feet and she yelped in shock as she backed away from them.

“Worry not, fair maiden,” Their leader said, his tone genuine and soothing, Then six dwarves dressed in green and white outfits came to meet her. They all stood in a row in front of Layla and smiled up at her.

“A-a-a-are you r-real?” Layla finally spoke, she was stuttering and her tone was scared and shy. She was in disbelief, still not believing what she was seeing, she rubbed her eyes with her hands and looked at them and they were still there.

The dwarves laughed at her; They nodded their heads while doing so.

“Of course, we are, fair maiden,” said their leader, It is a dwarf who wore a white hat while the other green ones.

Terrified, she fiercely swung her broom at the dwarves, They dodged her attack and looked at her in complete confusion, Their leader, Mattan, raised her hand at her in indifference so that he could explain the situation to her.

“Layla, stop it!” Mattan declared with a firm tone.

In complete bewilderment, Layla dropped her broom, she lifted a surprised eyebrow “How did you know my name?”

“We know you, but you don’t know us,” cane his vague reply.

Layla only blinked twice or thrice at this, she didn’t know what to do or say; Dwarves appearing in your garden isn’t something you see every day or something you can barely process. Layla swallowed hard, trying her hardest to understand the situation she was in.

“Okay? And what do you want?” Layla inquired.

Mattan stepped closer, he gently raised his hand and touched the hem of her dress. He didn’t say anything in the least, He only did some hand gestures. A thick white fog like a cloud in a clear sky enveloped them and in fear, Layla covered her eyes.

It didn’t take long for Layla to take her hands from her eyes and see what happened. She is in a different place now – a jungle — a forest, She is in a forest-like place, full of thick trees and green grass. As if she is in a perfect forest in some fairytale.

The dwarves started to walk and Layla trotted behind them. Mattan was talking about the history of this glorious forest while Layla was eagerly looking around the place. She smiled as he mentioned something about ‘willow trees’ she loves them so much.

In a flash, Mattan and his dwarves came to a halt, Mattan looked directly into Layla’s eyes as he pointed a finger at her.

“Layla, You are the daughter of the mother forest,” Mattan announced suddenly.

Layla, bewildered at his claim, she calmly shook her head. “No sir, I’m no such thing,” She replied.

Mattan, still determined to prove himself right. “You are!” He said determinedly.

Layla shook her head. “No, Sir.”

“You are!”

“No, Sir.”

Mattan breathed to calm himself. Layla is as stubborn as a mule to accept the truth.

Mattan sat on a big rock. “Haven’t you asked yourself, where are your pare?” Mattan asked.

Layla’s eyes fixed on him. “I have, many times to count,” She said in a quiet tone.

“Both of your parents are gone, sadly,” Mattan told her, his tone is soft and mild. He paused then after long moments. “But, You must know your heritage, You are a verdant, a being of the forest and we need to protect you until you grow up into a powerful Sylvan!”

The dwarves nodded as they looked at Layla.

Layla was still in disbelief and she refused to believe any of this. “No, I’m no such thing.”

Suddenly, five dark creatures rushed towards Layla but Mattan easily blocked their path from Layla.

Layla gasped in utter shock and horror. From the look of them, they are dark dwarves, evil beings of chaos and evil. They are dressed in black and red clothes and they carry axes with them.

Mattan looked at Layla, He used his abilities to transported her back to her home. Layla was thankful to him for saving her life.

After days of this event, Layla discovered that she has some abilities, she can grow plants, flowers and everything that is plant-based. She told Granny Mira and the latter was shocked and scared.

“Please, Do not let the king know of this!” Granny Mira begged.

“Why?” Layla asked innocently.

Granny Mira breathed. “He hates magic, Because ‘magic’ is the reason for his wife's death,” She answered then she paused as if to remember what she was going to say. “Also, He will punish anyone that is doing magic or complicit in it!”

Layla was shocked, she didn’t know about this at all. No one in town said such a thing about magic.

“Okay, I got it,” Layla muttered as her head hunged down.

She was so happy about her gift, she wanted to help everyone and make their life easier, but now? She has to keep her gift a secret or everyone she knows will suffer.

Layla decided to look at the bright side. Granny Mira is right, she needed to keep this secret. Because if not: everyone she cares about is threatened with death. She decided to use her gift in secret and she won’t tell anyone about it except for Granny Mira, she already knows.

Days go by, and the dwarves finally come again to see Layla and to talk with her. They brought with them food and bread.

They sat in Layla’s room and surprised her. Layla smiled at them, it was the first time she smiled at them and she greeted them.

“Hello, Friends,” she greeted them happily.

The dwarves smiled and greeted her too, both were happy about their friendship. They decided to celebrate at little and the food they brought.

Layla took a bite of the bread, it was delicious and sweet, It was as if angels were singing in her mouth, she never tasted something as delicious as this. She thanked them for the food, she ate slowly and with manners, savouring every taste of it.

“This, this is delicious!” Layla spoke after she swallowed the bread.

“Glad you like it, It is called fairy bread,” Mattan exclaimed happily.

Then, The dwarves left, they brought with them so much food that Layla decided to put it on the hall table.

Later that day, Granny Mira invited her other friends, who were all older women just like her, she offered them the food that the dwarves brought to Layla. They took a bite of it and they were happy, they were praising Granny Mira for the delicious food she offered to them.

“This is delicious!”

“I have never ever tasted something like this!”

“This is out of this world!”

Granny Mira's smile flickered with a hint of bewilderment as she listened to their enthusiastic claims about the bread. Doubt crept into her mind, but curiosity got the better of her, with a determined nod, she reached for a piece and brought it to her lips. The moment she took a bite, her eyes widened in astonishment. The flavours exploded on her tongue, sending waves of delight through her senses. In a frenzy of hunger, she devoured the rest of the bread, savouring every delectable morsel as if she were a ravenous beast.

All her friends nodded. “See?” They chuckled at her display of hunger.

Granny Mira chuckled in agreement. She was embarrassed by her own inability to control herself. She is a well-mannered lady and she must show it.

When Granny Mira's friends left. She told Layla about the delicious bread and the food that was on the table, she laughed at how her friends, devoured it all, as if they were starving for days.

Layla smiled at this, she was happy but she was a little concerned since Granny Mira mentioned they ate the food that the dwarves gave her, and she was terrified that her caregiver friends would ask more of that food.

“Wellness, Granny,” Layla chuckled, trying her hardest to push her nervousness and concern away.

“You made it right? You always make delicious food,” Granny

Layla sighed. “No, I didn’t make it,” she confessed.

Granny blinked her eyes in pure confusion. “Y-you didn’t make it? Then who?”

Layla sat on the sofa. She looked at Granny and smiled “The fairies, or the dwarves, whatever they were,” she shrugged her shoulders. She was nonchalant and she didn’t know why.

“Layla, Tell me the truth,” Granny said as she sat beside her on the sofa.

“I told you the truth, It was the dwarves who made it for me.”

“That’s ridiculous!”

“It is the truth!”

Granny crossed her arms. “Layla! There are no such things as ‘fairies’ or ‘dwarves’”

“Fine! You want me to prove it to you?” Layla stated as she got to her feet and went to a different spot in the room and she started to move her hands as if to summon a paranormal creature.

It didn’t take long as a green glow sparkled in the room and six figures emerged from it. They were short and dwarves-like, unlike dwarves who were known for their green skin and ugly features, these dwarves had fair skin tones and good-looking facial features.

Granny placed her hands on her lips in pure astonishment. “Oh my! You are right! They are real.”

“See?” Layla grinned at her.

Granny Mira nodded and smiled. “Of course, But you must not tell the people about them Let alone the King,” Granny declared.

Layla nodded at her. “Of course, Granny.”

Times go by, and The dwarves continue to visit Layla and bring food for her, Granny’s guests enjoy the food and tell Granny how talented her daughter is for making the food, They were unaware of the dwarves or the fairies or even of Layla’s new gifts.

Unfortunately, One day, one of the King’s advisors heard some voices in the house of Layla and her Granny, They weren’t human and they didn’t belong to Layla or Granny, He heard of local stories of witches and glowing creatures, etc; he decided to take a permit to investigate the house.

He took a permit and he is heading to investigate Layla’s house. He saw things, He didn’t wish to make accusations without evidence.

Layla and Granny welcomed the King’s advisor. At first, He didn’t find anything regarding the ‘witches’ or ‘the glowing creatures’ that he heard or saw.

Unbeknownst to Layla or Granny, The King’s guards were awaiting the advisor's word so they could enter and capture Layla and Granny. but he didn’t give his signal at all.

The King’s advisor still didn’t see anything out of the ordinary in the house. He is still looking for clues and he sees glowing green spots on the floor. He raised an eyebrow as he looked at Layla and her Granny.

“Oh, that? That is some rare herbs I found deep in the forest!” Layla lied. She smiled as she looked him in the eye.

The King's advisor nodded. He didn’t know that it was a lie, her tone was genuine and sincere. and her body language didn’t show nervousness or lack of expression.

But the unexpected happened and one of the dwarves blew his cover as he fell from one of the top drawers of the kitchen.

The King’s advisor looked at Layla and Granny, He immediately lifted his finger and gave a signal towards the King’s guards. They came by kicking the door open and arrested Granny and Layla.

“Please! Please let us go!” Layla begged. “It is not what you think!”

His reply was a slap to her left cheek as he looked at her with disgust. “Silence! You witch!”

The guards took Layla and Granny to the King’s Yard for judgment.

At this moment, Hadi and Arouj were walking around the town, They heard people talking about a girl named Layla and her Granny, and that they were accused of witchcraft and magic.

Hadi’s interest was piqued by this. He knew there was more than meet the eye, He decided to do a rescue mission for Layla and her Granny, So, He pulled Arouj’s hand and they were running towards the King’s yard.

By the time Hadi and Arouj reached the place, the judge had said his final verdict and he saw Layla and her Granny were tied and ready to be executed.

His hand already glowed with green magic, With a snap of his fingers, the ropes on Layla and her Granny loosened, Layla quickly saw her chance and used her chlorokinesis, she shot out her palms, Thick hard vines curled themselves around the guards’ ankles and they were thrown away as if they were stones thrown by a catapult.

People gasped with horror and shock. They were scared of Layla’s powers, They ran at the sight of it. The King ordered his guards to kill Layla and The Granny.

So far, The King’s guards couldn’t get closer to Layla at all, until the King himself took Granny by surprise and killed her by decapitating her head with his sword. Layla gasped in shock and anger. The King’s sword is coated with blood, her Granny’s blood, She used her Chlorokinesis once again, she killed all the guards as her ravenous and scary monster plants killed the complicit in her Granny’s death.

Hadi magically pushed the guards away while Arouj used his lashers to kill them quickly, He didn’t want to but they forced his hands.

Layla growled with anger as she shot her palm against the king and his remaining guards. She commanded the ravenous vines to attack the evil King and his guards.

The King fought for his life till the end, But Layla decided to finish him quickly, One of Layla’s plant vines pierced him his heart, He yelled and gurgled as he placed his hand on his heart as if he was trying to lessen the pain but he couldn’t and died.

Hadi decided to intervene now. He slowly and carefully walked towards Layla. “We need to go,” He said urgently.

She smiled at him and nodded. “Let us go.”

Layla, Hadi and Arouj left the town, Hadi’s hands wreathed in a green glow as he conjured a portal to his home. Layla, Arouj and Hadi entered the portal before they were followed by the King’s guards.

Layla thanked Hadi for saving her and offering her a new place to stay, one where she could freely express herself and be herself.

She knew that she had fallen in love with Hadi Because he was the only guy who didn’t look at her as the guys would. He saw her as a friend and a great one. Layla fell in love with him and she likes him.

Aliyaa, Hadi and Arouj welcomed Layla and thus she stayed with them, as her new family. Layla also decided to look for answers about who she is and what happend to her parents.

Another Thing About Disappearing Office Geniuses

As the structures that had under-appreciated admins holding things together get cannibalized in favor of technical fixes that make things worse, navigating those systems becomes much harder and more time consuming, which both leaves more vulnerable people without the resources they need and leans on under-appreciated and underpaid or uncompensated support from other people to try to carry people over the gaps in service.

So, you’ve got students who can’t figure out classes or get accommodations or finish their degrees; you’ve got people trying to apply for jobs or purchase necessary items or trying to get a wildly overcharged bill corrected; you’ve got the entire mess of navigating health care.

Then you have the librarians, doing their best to connect people with resources on public computers while conservatives with too much time on their hands try to get the librarians jobs eliminated. You’ve got starving grad students and paid-per-course instructors who have to choose between setting boundaries for their well being and helping students whose plight they know all too well. You’ve got family caregivers who risk their own livelihoods and relationships and health because of all the running around and being on hold and 12-hour emergency room visits.

Losing the holding-it-all-together people is a symptom, not the entire cause of the problem, but I think it’s all connected to inequity of valuing the time and talents and wellbeing of the people around us.

I wanted to share something I found while working on a project for the hospital I'm doing an internship at.

There are very few resources* about Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder that are aimed at kids and teens who have FASD themselves. If it does exist, it's usually so old it just says "Fetal Alcohol Syndrome" and/or is quite bleak in tone. But I found something good! It's current and has:

Information on FASD in plain language and in Easy Read format

Coping skills people with FASD can use to help with a variety of things

Emphasis on support and understanding

Specific people with FASD credited with providing extensive input, rather than a vague "board of advisors" (read: caregivers).

(If that link doesn't work, let me know so I can try and wrangle Tumblr into cooperating. In the meantime, Google "Me and my FASD" as a stopgap.)

*When I say "very few," I mean the real librarian and I both looked hard. Counting the stuff we already had, there were at most five substantial resources that met recency criteria, weren't horrendously ableist, and were aimed at people with FASD themselves. Five. At most.

#fetal alcohol spectrum disorder #fasd #autism adjacent #because lots of people with FASD are also autistic or have autistic traits #disability

Was just browsing your skirts and trying to decide which one to order when the medical bills are finally paid.

And was texting with a friend about caregiving for a difficult parent and reminding her she needs to take care of herself and occasionally give herself something fun and sent her the link to your shop.

She was very excited - you can put the children's librarian in a different job but that doesn't make the urge to have the coolest skirts disappear :)

Thank you for helping me make my friend feel brighter about life!

aww that’s real sweet! 🥺🥺 good luck with your medical bills and thanks for spreading the word!

Something About Archetypes

So... Jungian psychology is littered around Psychonauts, but honestly, one of the biggest dissonances between the fandom and the psychology is the use of Archetypes.

I'm guilty of this too, my Razes from RRR are RIGHT THERE. But I want to spitball some new ideas for Archetypes depending on what the characters want/need.

I am taking my information on Archetypes from this site.

Cassie O'Peia - I want to talk about Cassie's archetypes first because I think that each CAN fit into a Jungian archetype. Writer = Hero (leave a mark on the world through mastery for your own ego) Librarian = Ruler (provide structure to the world through control for your sense of self) Teacher = Caregiver (provide structure to the world through service for your own ego) Counterfeiter = Innocent (yearn for paradise through safety for your own ego)

Razputin Aquato - Archetype = Jester (connecting with others through enjoyment for your sense of self)

Coach Oleander - Magician (leaving a mark on the world through power for your own sense of self)

Sasha Nein - Creator (providing structure on the world through innovation for feelings down to your soul)

Milla Vodello - Everyman (connecting with others through belonging for your own ego)

Lili Zanotto - Explorer (yearn for paradise through freedom for feelings down to your soul)

Ford Cruller - Sage (yearn for paradise through understanding for your own sense of self)

I'm sorry nobody knows what a tumblr job is

if you aren't missing a comma or a "but" there. thank u i love u

if i had unlimited characters and thought people would bother reading context associated with a poll, (i am pretty sure they usually do not) and also had some foresight about some of the specific things people would interpret differently than i intended, here's what this would have looked like:

[begin post]

[begin poll]

which of these listed tumblr job types is yours?

retail, grocery, consumer-facing service and sales (excludes call centers and food service)

food service (includes restaurants, cafes, coffee shops, bars, cafeterias, food trucks, commercial kitchens, food kitchens, etc; cooking + serving + hosting)

teacher, professor, tutor, teaching assistant, childcare provider, but not educational administrator, if you do another kind of education read the rest of the options first because one of them might be a better fit

engineer, developer, technical designer, data or computer scientist, not including technical writers

parks and wildlife, outdoor research, animal care (including animal boarding and veterinary care), animal keeping (such as zoos or aquariums), animal husbandry, farming, ranching, environmental conservation, gardener or plant nursery worker (but not florist), field archaelogist, equine therapist, outdoor camp counselor if you work with and have knowledge around plants and/or animals

librarian, archivist, docent, tour guide, curator, patron-facing researcher, consultant historian or sociologist, community educator at a cultural or knowledge (probably nonprofit) institution (including but not limited to historical reenactors); reception or guest services related to any of the previous, excepting food service, which is the food service option

writer - content, technical, proposal, marketing, fiction, nonfiction, educational, research, including editing, but has to be actively working and receiving pay from a company, an organization, and/or clients/commissioners including publications/publishers, even if income is inconsistent or not received at regular intervals. does not include captioning or transcription. translators use your best judgment

artist, illustrator, graphic designer, but has to be actively working and receiving pay from a company, an organization, clients/commissioners including publications and galleries, may include visual marketing but does NOT include ad sales, also does not include video editing unless you do like, speed paints or show off your art in videos

patient healthcare, caregiving, and advocacy. does not include animal care, pharmaceutical research or dispensing, or medical coding/billing

you are not currently working as / do not currently have any of the Tumblr Jobs listed above

[end poll]

a "Tumblr Job" is decided based on the following criteria, which is based on my own dashboard/Tumblr experiences, and tumblr searches:

either many Tumblr users have or have had that job, OR, one to a few high-profile Tumblr users have or have had that job

posts are made about that job, either about the day-to-day work itself (positive or negative), as an appeal to authority ("librarian here!"), or about the concept and/or vibes of the job or having that job

posts are reblogged about that job, and reach an audience of people who do not have that job; posts go viral about that job, even

Tumblr users might aspire to have that job, or be studying toward it

it might require a high level of interest and/or personal investment with limited positions available, OR, it might be a very common job in the world

the job is NOT one that many Tumblr users would perhaps complain and/or rant and/or criticize about other people having

the job is NOT one commonly associated with things Tumblr tends to skew away from, like industries known to contribute to climate change or jobs that tend to be associated with ultra high earners with wealth inequality in the same industry (editing to plug my other poll that 6 & 7 apply to that nobody is taking)

a "Tumblr Job" is NOT just a job anybody on tumblr might have or even a job most people or many people on tumblr might have. it's not even a job that is necessarily common on tumblr (common on tumblr != common tumblr job), that's something i am interested in finding out via the poll.

just because tumblr users you know also have your job doesn't mean it Is a tumblr job. and just because your job type isn't listed doesn't mean it is Not a tumblr job. there are only 9 job hodgepodge types here. there are more jobs in the world than this and there are more tumblr jobs on tumblr than this. these are also not and are not intended to be standard industry classifications. they are grouped by tumblr vibes, not necessarily by job role or duties.

if you do not have a job at this time, you do not currently right now have one of the listed tumblr jobs. being unemployed or being a student, even if you once had one of these jobs or are studying to obtain one of these jobs, are not jobs for the purpose of this poll.

the purpose of the poll is to see how many respondents actually have and are doing these specific jobs that i have identified as "tumblr jobs". nothing more and nothing less!

[end post]

but nobody is gonna fucking read all that & tumblr polls have character limits. if the poll was as specific as i wanted it to be it would not have however many thousands of votes it currently has. curse of my autisms <3

#poll #also i specifically went with ''knowledge'' hospitality because ''''knowledge worker'' hospitality and tourism'' wouldn't fit #''knowledge worker'' is an actual phrase people say and it applies to the group of people i was trying to describe #the population i am trying to get at is more narrow than people who work at cultural organizations which someone in the tags suggested.#bc that would include like religious institutions and performing arts and stuff.#for ''engineer'' which is another criticism area it is not that deep i assumed the software developers and technicians that followed me #would know to select engineer. and engineer being on its own as the shortest option was funny #having thought about it since getting a ton of notes asking where IT is. IT is a common industry on tumblr #but it is too broad to be A Tumblr Industry #so i actually don't regret not explicitly calling it out #even though the description above in this post WAS my initial intention

redid the Codex/Keystone guardian Pixies’ designs! they needed to comply with the rest of the Pixie redesigns. Redone info for them below! as in, I actually bother to describe them this time lmao. Harmonia’s an OC, as a reminder!

The Five Keystone Guardians are the five Pixies in charge of, well, keeping the Keystones to the Gate of Relix protected and safe. In order, they are Concorda of Alfea, Athena of Red Fountain, the late Harmonia of Magica City, Ninfea of Magix’s Pixie Village, and Discorda of Cloud Tower. These five locations hold the pieces of the Gate Keystone, a mystical stone holding the power to the gate to Relix, a planetoid that was sealed away by the Order during the First Age of Magic, as they deemed its high energy dangerous to manipulate and knew it would be abused. Darkar is in search of said Gate, as a leftover of Darek’s deepest desire fused with Argulus’s insatiable greed for power. Aside from that, each Pixie helps run the school or village in certain ways.

Concorda is the Pixie of Information, who takes residence in Alfea’s Archives. She also acts as its librarian, occasionally helping Barbatea as some books are only under her jurisdiction. She has Livy as her messenger and helper, as well. Concorda, true to her Calling, is very reserved and studious, and can always be seen reading a book and enjoying some tea. Her powers usually translate into Sound-based magic, as well as occasional Wind and Earth. Her original post of safekeeping her Keystone was Lake Roccalucce.

Athena is the Pixie of Strategy, and usually assists with Fonterrossa’s classes herself - she’s considered the true Strategy professor, which sometimes annoys Alabaster, the ACTUAL Strategy professor. Prideful, but never boastful, and she’s known to have a bit of a softer side shine through from time to time. She never quite moved on from Harmonia’s passing, but she’s pragmatic enough to not let that cloud her judgement. Her powers usually manifest as Metal, Fire and Light-based magic. Her original post of safekeeping her Keystone was in the mountains, where the Order of Mana’s Paladin Academy would be settled years later.

Harmonia was the Pixie of Echoes. She was sweet and kind, and also incredibly skilled in combat for a Pixie - only Athena rivaled her strength. She was killed by the then newly formed Darkar to steal her Keystone, but didn’t go down without a fight - managing to weaken Darkar severely and almost disrupting the spell that keeps him in a semi-corporeal form, so that he could then be finished by the then brand-new Company of Light. As all pixies, she dissolved into Essence Dust when killed, and her Dust was used to keep Magix’s Tree of Life (which back then was on the verge of dying thanks to Dakrar) alive, making it grow healthy. Her conscience is believed to still be inside the Tree, but it’s mostly just a rumor. True to her Calling, her powers conveyed Sound-based magic and had amplifying effects on others. Her original post of safekeeping her Keystone was in the then budding Magica Village, soon becoming the biggest city in the planet.

Ninfea is the Pixie of Forests, and acts as head of the Council in Pixie Village’s politics, essentially being its mayor. She’s kind and just, qualities found in a good ruler, but she feels she lives in Harmonia’s shadow from time to time and as much as it pains her, she can admit she has grown to resent her slightly. Her Calling’s the most direct, manifesting as Flora, Fauna and Water-based magic. Unlike the rest, she was always stationed in Pixie Village.

Discorda is the Pixie of Traps, and is the caregiver of Torre Nuvola itself, keeping the school healthy and pious. Appears grumpy, but is very amicable and talkative as long as they don’t do anything that makes Torre Nuvola do more work or be put in jeopardy, having a couple vendettas accumulated over the years, most particularly with the Trix but also with Professor Hecate, who might have been careless in her years as a student and wishes Discorda would just forgive her already. Her Calling manifests as Fauna, Earth, Healing and Water-based magic, and it helps her with ensuring nothing goes bad with her “dear Tower”. Much like with Ninfea, she had always remained in the same spot of safekeeping her Keystone - she also assisted with Torre Nuvola’s “birth.”
