Wild Light, Broken Free | Chapter 1

✨Read on Ao3!✨

This is the yawning maw inside his ribs, come to life. Calligos drags the light of her against him, all to slake the hunger under his skin, the depthless void that’s gnawed at his nerves for time untold. What came before was not enough. All that could come after might not ever be enough.

Summary: When Castilla von Valancius disappears somewhere in the Atlas Reach star system, Calligos Winterscale's world is split into before and after. Before she vanishes, in the months after her Magnae Accessio, she breaks the bounds of the possible and captures his interest, his curiosity. After she is reported missing, Calligos realizes she claimed so much more of him than that—and he will tear the Koronus Expanse apart, to recover what he has lost.

Owlcatober - Хаос ٩(◕‿◕｡)۶

I recently reached 1K followers on Bluesky and did a little giveaway for a fully rendered bust commission! This was the painting I did for the winner - a portrait of Rogue Trader Gwenllian Von Valancius

Nomos for @owlcatober day 2.

"To simply live, comprehending yourself and the world"

I got a bit carried away, but oh well.

Chaos

Well, in terms of gameplay, my Rogue Trader is Lavinia, a void born psionic telepath and part-time death dancer in the service of the Imperium. She's a schismatic by nature, unafraid to exploit chaos for her own ends. At the same time, serving the Imperium weighs heavily on her, but she can't say a word outright, or she'll be burned at the stake. The rebel within is always there, and her faithful raven, Third Eye, a Warp entity, always flies by her side. They're practically teetering on the brink of heresy, waiting for it to finally kill them.
