Where he had gotten fresh fruit so early in the season Zanja could not imagine, and she had never seen anything quite like this fruit. (Fire Logic, p. 160)

My eighteenth (and last!) work for A Year In Shaftal, the Elemental Logic fandom event hosted on @shaftal

Prompt 1. Visual Art: an illustration of a specific scene in the books & 5. Any type: a work focused on food

there are more orphans from port damali though -- probably just coincidence, but both cali and twiggy are from there and 'orphans' in a manner of speaking. i say that because cali was brought into a cult and we don't actually know whether twiggy is a real child or not -- her shadow was that of an old woman and she had weirdly long fingers so like, who knows. but either way -- port damali is like, orphan capital, from what we've seen.

I forgot Twiggy was from there, but I remembered Cali. That’s one reason I think Port Damali probably doesn’t have a state-funded system to deal with orphans - that an abandoned baby could just be grabbed up and raised by a religious cult.  In places that don’t have state-run charities, religious organizations often pop up to fill those roles, so I wouldn’t be surprised if a lot of orphans on the Menagerie Coast wind up raised in various temples and such.

i wrote a bunch of these for some tumblr prompts! links:

the one where anything written on your skin appears on your soulmate’s skin as well (avengers/MCU, clint/natasha/laura)

the one where your soulmate’s first words to you are written on your body (check please, nursey/dex)

the one where color appears on your body wherever your soulmate first touches you (check please, nursey/dex)

the one where you and your soulmate share an emotional link (check please, nursey/dex)

the one where anything written on your skin appears on your soulmate’s skin as well (check please, nursey/dex, mildly NSFW)

the one where soulmates are reincarnated and keep finding each other throughout their different lives (check please, nursey/dex, mildly NSFW)

the one where your soulmate’s name is on one wrist and your enemy’s name is on the other and you have no clue which is which (check please, nursey/dex)

the one where every lie your soulmate tells you appears on your skin (check please, nursey/dex)

the one where you have a timer on your wrist that counts down to when you meet your soulmate (check please, nursey/dex)

the one where it’s impossible to lie to your soulmate (check please, nursey/dex)

the one where once you meet your soulmate, it’s physically uncomfortable to be apart from them for too long (check please, nursey/dex)

the one where you don’t know your soulmate until you hear them say your name (avengers/MCU, clint/nat/laura)

...so apparently when i said “a bunch” what i meant was “A METRIC FUCKTON” because wow that was a lot of links oops

Crossover Comix: The Priory of the Orange Tree by @sshannonauthor​ meets the Elemental Logic series (book 1 is Fire Logic) by Laurie J. Marks. Between the central f/f relationships, the many queer POV characters, the big worlds, and the subtle, imaginative magic systems... I just think these books should be friends. 🍊🔥⚔👭🔨🐉📚

My fifth work for A Year In Shaftal, the Elemental Logic fandom event hosted on @shaftal; prompts 33: a crossover, and 41: femslash february

I promised myself I would make this so simple, but it ended up clocking in at 26 hours, not counting research or writing 🤷🏻‍♀️

If you like this, you might be interested in my other priory art, my other elemental logic art, and my general tag for wlw book fanart.

Did you decide to add a book to your to-read list because of this comic? I would like to hear about it! Are you one of the rare individuals who has already read both of these stories? I want to be your friend!

Bonus:

Sometimes a family is six adults and one baby.
