#tinebaille

Ooh! 👀😏

Calliope would love it for both herself and MC. In fact, she’d want matching ones, or maybe corresponding ones like intersecting gears.

Corinne wouldn’t get one herself. She’d take issue with the term “tramp stamp”, but if it was simply a meaningful tattoo in a secret spot on MC that only she could find, she’d find that very hot.

Vicente could be convinced as long as it had symbolism behind it, no meaningless decorations. And please god, no matching ones. They’d also find it very hot on MC.

Bayram would totally be down for it, and he’d find it incredibly sexy on MC.

Yup! See this post here.

Hello Nicole. He’s actually a good reference for Bayram!

Tinebaille, like all of Cantata’s cultures, is a mish mosh of several influences. The physical features of the people of Tinebaille would most resemble Polynesian, correct. However, the language and architecture is more similar to Turkish/Ottoman, with geometric mosaics and patterns like Iranian architecture. And the clothing is similar to Indian attire.

Below are a few reference photos for Tinebaille.

One funny story about this song is that apparently one time the Hussites started their singing the enemy forces decided basically "HELL NAH" and left the battlefield in a fast fashion also known as tactical retreat or running away

I am not a Hussite myself but I do think Bayram would be respected by the great Jan Žižka and even others if they weren't racist which is sadly unlikely but such is irl history

Ooh, I love this little bit of history, I did not know this! Bayram’s koro was inspired by the Māori haka, but this was impressive, too!

Can you imagine Bayram leading thousands of Tinebaillese warriors into battle, each one chanting the koro? Imperial army be just like that, “HELL NAH!”

The Tinebaillese language is based on Turkish, yes! Bayram’s name, too, is Turkish. I have a couple Turkish beta readers who have been positively INVALUABLE to me! 🥰

But you don’t have to pop it in Google Translate. Every word and expression Bayram uses can be found in the in-game codex, along with pronunciations. ☺️

Ah, the requisite beach episode. Gotta have RO reactions to seeing MC in a bathing suit (or the in-world equivalent). 🤭

Maybe? I had planned for Tinebaille to be only one chapter but the amount of stuff I want to fit in is steadily growing, lol. I may stretch it over two.

And if you don't have an answer for that or aren't comfortable with the question, I have a much more wholesome ask. That being, Would Bayram have spent much time with the Iredicci refugees in Tinebaille? I can see him going around to any settlements they may have and making sure they have everything they need. I can also him being interested in learning about Iredicci culture. In way simialure to Jonah and Thaleia did with MC and Tellus's camp. To me, Bayram comes across as somebody who is very clever and has a extremely keen mind, though he tries to hide it behind a happy go lucky and somewhat himboish persona. Please, at your convenience of course, feel free to answer either or neither of this. Until next time, stay happy and healthy and do be sure to take care of yourself and those you hold dear.

Hi Lilith! 👋

I did not know that about HRT; but no, I wouldn’t include that. If the topic of pregnancy or kids comes up, it’ll be in the epilogue, as I did with Viatica. And I wouldn’t put up any barriers to it except your own personal choice.

As to your second question, the short answer is yes. For a long answer, you’ll have to wait because this most certainly comes up in story! 😉
