Fishbourne Roman Palace's Bluesky account posted this adorably scuzzy owl mosaic for Superb Owl Sunday. I feel him very deeply, so I drew him.

Andrée Chedid, from “Terre et Poésie,” quoted in Women of the Fertile Crescent: An Anthology of Modern Poetry by Arab Women (edited by Kamal Boullata).

Some men will say I meant to kill my brother. The gods know it is a lie, but I will hear the whispers till the day I die. And it was my mace that dealt the fatal blow, I have no doubt. The only other foes he faced in the melee were three Kingsguard, whose vows forbade them to do any more than defend themselves. So it was me. Strange to say, I do not recall the blow that broke his skull. Is that a mercy or a curse? Some of both, I think. — A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms | The Hedge Knight
