“‘It never gets old, it’s always thrilling,’ said Celia Ackerman, a naturalist with American Princess Cruises who captured the images. As a child growing up in Brooklyn, Ackerman couldn’t wait to move out of the city so she could study marine animals. 'I would have never imagined I could enjoy them here right in my backyard.’”

Ocean Ramsey and her team encountered this 20 ft Great White Shark near the island of Oahu, Hawaii. It is believed to be the biggest ever recorded

When 99% of the time you only see sharks in sped-up footage accompanied by threatening orchestral music and some narrator dude ominously intoning that it is “the most perfect killing machine the world has ever seen”, you tend to forget sharks are such beautiful creatures. This video doesn’t show a “monster shark” or a “killing machine”. It shows an animal - and a fucking beautiful one at that.

Mielomancy is a form of hedge-magic practiced to some degree or other by beekeepers throughout the realm who have the proper knack for it. Like other hedge-magics it is considered base and plebian by academic mages and is thus poorly documented. What is known is that dabblers in the art, generally termed "Apicultists," are capable of communing with and commanding their insectoid charges as well as exerting rudimentary noetic control over honey. Full-fledged Mielomancers have developed these skills to the extent that their consciousness exists in a symbiotic communion with their bees and they can shape honey into fearsome weapons or purifying balms. Such powerful mages often take up lifestyles as itinerant warriors or miracle workers.
