I have been editing for what feels like 10 years. The file corrupted twice somehow 😑 I eventually had to switch to cloud backups BC autosaves were not fixing it
I am just adding too many pictures of my beautiful friend the moon 🌚🌝

Arianrhod the lady of the silver wheel is next on my gwyndolin triptych 🌚🌝
Last will be finalising the design for Manannan Mac Lir, the shapeshifting sea god of magic, illusions, and the mystical Tír na nóg (where the tuatha de Danann, the old gods, were said to live)

My next video I'm planning is on Aengus Mac Óg (Angus the young)
"Angus hath come - the young the fair,
The blue-eyed god with golden hair"
He oversaw: youth, poetry, love, sleep and dreams and was known as the “greatest and wisest of magicians of the Tuatha De Danaan” - Daragh Smyth

Progress update on my Emerald Herald video:
I have been very sick the past few weeks, thankfully I've managed to chase Aldrich off with a large container of salt, so should be able to record this week!

Fun Elden Ring fact: Jar Bairn's name means "Jar Child" - Bairn is a word from Old English (bearn) which is now mainly used in Scotland and parts of Northern England!
In Northern Ireland, you're more likely to hear Wairn/Wean meaning the same thing! 💗

A preview of the title card art (by me) for my next video - The Emerald Herald from Dark Souls 2 and her possible inspiration from Saint Brigid of the Sacred Flame - based on a mural depicting Saint Brigid and her linked Goddess, Brid,
in a similar pose.

I would love to know who people relate to most and why. There are some deep ones but also I really relate to the classic FromSoft Floor Boys - little guys who wiggle around on the floor. They're just like me!

People keep saying that X or Y in my videos are not based on real world languages but on pieces of fantasy media where they also used the same real world languages to make up the names.

I had this mental image in my mind and it made me laugh so I had to include it. Fashionable AND functional for supporting today's goddess on the go!
(Seriously tho the thing that bothers me about Gwynevere's OG fit is the lack of boob support.)

Fun fact: there's an unusual amount of Frampt and Kaathe looking little guys in Irish iron-age art - which could mean nothing 🕵️♂️
