AMAB (Assigned Malik At Birth)

So here's my bookmark for 'The Secret Crusade'

I thought it would be a retelling of the AC1 and Bloodlines, but the additional context in some scenes was very interesting

Also they did my boy Malik so dirty. I grieve his loss every day. He did not get to taste a full day of freedom after years of suffering 🥀

You see this?

That's not a river. That's the South Canal in Mesa, Arizona (Phoenix metro area).

This is a view of the East and South canals. At least half of all the Phoenix metro canals were originally built by the Hohokam (from roughly 200-1400 CE), and are still in use (restored) today.

Phoenix, Arizona actually has more miles (kilometers) of Canals total than both Venice and Amsterdam. No, really. Phoenix has about 180 miles of canals, many of which are built on ancient canal foundations.

below is an aerial view photo taken in the late 1930's of one branch of Phoenix's canal systems:

Also have the "Montezuma Castle," if you need a castle:

The Taos Pueblo, Orayvi, and Sky City (Acoma) were all founded sometime before 1150AD and have been continuously inhabited since then.

There’s the Medicine Wheel in Wyoming - called Annáshisee by the Apsáalooke, who also say that it was there before they arrived. We don’t know how old it is. Oral history from several different indigenous tribes say it was built by ancient ancestors who lived without iron.

And then there’s the Serpent Mound in Ohio, which, by the way, is the largest serpent effigy in the world.

Radiocarbon dates it back to at least 300 BCE. (2300 years ago), so, you know — the time of Ptolemy and the Punic Wars, and was later repaired by indigenous people about 900 years ago.

Finished around a month or so ago— Inspired by the look of Conrad Veidt’s Gwynplaine from “The Man who Laughs” 1928. Gwynplaine is a much more sympathetic character, but I couldn’t help but draw something inspired by the look and later wardrobe change with Monsieur de Charlois :))

Yes I’m

Yes hmmms ow

Eh

It matters that we resist.
