Random character having a ciggy and tea break
Inspired by a post about that particular Microsoft logo, here's my laptop's custom boot screen. Just imagine the spinning dots are there too.

big ass lore dump on my worldbuild site
if you ask me wizardry is about hubris.
wizardry is about someone who was once merely a man and now she's a vessel to insane cosmic power.
wizardry is about calling forth the demonic hands of Zulmanos to go put away your laundry because you can't be asked to do it and then getting shocked and annoyed when the foul miasma of the lower planes starts spawning imps in your changing room.
wizardy is about picking fights with dragons and kingdoms and small planets and having 50/50 odds of winning, or of your pathetic mortal frame pop like a fresh grape because you fucked up your defensive runes and now you're a smear of red wearing a very nice robe.
wizardry is the ultimate expression of human power, our ability to shape the world around us to suit our deep desires and our petty whims, and at the same time human weakness, both our physical vulnerability and the various foibles and quirks that make us make mistakes but also make us who we are.
its also about going "heehoo" and scuttling around your tower like a gecko.
Thousands of years is a long-ass time but this provides serious worldbuilding opportunities to a motivated sicko willing to grapple with the ramifications
pro-tip: don't ever use the sentence "thousands of years" in your worldbuilding unless you really know what a thousand years is like
reblog to be eaten by this thing
Large cushions and comfortable rugs adorn the hardwood floor before the roaring hearth. Steam drifts from a freshly filled pot of tea. Stay a while, perhaps. [Mostly reblogs of art and other things I think are neat.]
