The Pendragon Tales — Episode 9 just dropped. And Arthur’s journey takes its most haunting turn yet.

A sky crowned in pale fire. A dying messenger whispering the name Mordred. A prophecy circling back for blood. And a young king standing alone before the Maker, speaking the vow that will shape the destiny of Britain.

EPISODE 9 — “The Oath at the Edge of the World” is live now. This is where the march to Badon truly begins.

If you love myth, meaning, Celtic atmosphere, and stories that ask what leadership really costs— this chapter is for you.

Stay bold. Stay Gold. And keep listening for the whisper of destiny.

With your touch

I find relief

from suffering,

and I heal from my pains.

With your fingers

you create treasures

from the dust of the earth

and the flames of the forge.

With your hands

you tell stories of distant lands,

and give voice to the soul.

With your prayer,

clear as water,

you take me to heaven

with a serene soul

and maternal love,

while you place in my hands

a straw cross.

🍄 Kelpies - Celtic - Shape-shifting water spirit that can take the form of a human, but most commonly appears as a horse. They live in the lochs and pools of Scotland, and drag any unsuspecting humans (usually children) underneath the surface to drown.

🍄 Centaurs - Greek - A creature with the upper body of a man and the lower body and legs of a horse. They are seen as both wild and untameable (like wild horses), but also clever and wise, and are frequently depicted in Greek mythology as teachers and wise companions.

🍄 Gnomes - European - Small, subterranean goblin/earth spirits that guard mines of precious stones and treasures hidden well beneath the earth. The Gnome King, Gob, ruled with a magical sword and was said to be able to control men’s emotions (particularly melancholic or sad ones).

🍄 Sirens - Greek - Dangerous creatures living on small islands in the middle of the ocean that lure sailors to their watery deaths by singing magical, spellbinding music. They originally appeared as part human, part bird, and could be either male or female. However, during the Middle Ages, male versions were dropped from all artwork depicting sirens, and they adopted their signature mermaid form.

🍄 Minotaur - Greek - A creature with the head and tail of a bull and the body of a man. The original Minotaur was a monstrous creature that lived in the centre of a Labyrinth designed by the architect Daedalus. It would be fed seven Athenian youths and seven maidens each year as it could only eat human flesh. Eventually, a boy called Theseus went along with the other six youths, and managed to kill the Minotaur and escape the labyrinth with the help of some red string.

Graphtober, semaine 3 - Mythologie

Jour 19. Celte

that sways calmly in the wind of August.

Only you will see the summer sun,

that batheth the ears of corn with its light.

And after hearing all of this,

you will take your last breath

while the scythe falls on the harvest

and the torrid heat of summer,

will abandon you.
