As a special addition to the RuneQuest Adventure Tokens, @katrindirim.bsky.social has kindly drawn a Moon Cat! Feel free to use this feline in your games.
A piece of WW2 anti-fascist folk art. My grandfather brought this back after serving in North Africa and the Levant. I assume it was made by one of his comrades from a bit of spare wood.
I've been studying the Oxford Cognitive Screen (OCS) tests I did on Thursday. I am obviously very lucky as I only made one or two small errors. The tests are a disturbing, fascinating, and frightening insight into what a stroke can damage.
That's my Covid vacinnation booked. Next week, a trip by bus and train to.... Colchester. Convenient in a way, as I still won't be allowed to drive, so it will be a day out.
This time last week I was wondering what was happening.
Today: legs almost normal; left arm still heavy and hand stiff. Odd having a pain in the hand when there's nothing physically wrong with it. I feel a little 'odd' in myself.
The village sits on a mound; the site has been occupied for at least a thousand years. It is protected by a ditch and thorn hedge, and the houses form a protective wall. This is a small village, with maybe 200 inhabitants who work the surrounding fields.
I realised that was the wrong title, so Mark has kindly reworked the lettering. It's not a story about the storyteller, but mostly consists of myths and legends he tells.
Believe I have a good excuse for being befuddled this week.
As some of you know, I have had a medical adventure this week. I hope to create the booklet towards the end of the month but will have to carefully work out how many copies I can bring to Dragonmeet.
Very tired, and oddly emotionally distanced. May be the tablets or the effects of this week. Typing is still difficult so I won't be writing long replies. My left leg is 95% there but my left arm is at 80% and my hand still feels as though it isn't mine, and I am very left handed.
An update: I'm home. About 80% functionality restored in my arm and leg - stroke deep in the brain. I've been lucky - no apparent speech, memory, or personality damage. I was the only one walking up and down the Ward corridor - exercise is a way of rewiring the brain to restore control of a limb.
A draft by @marksmylie.bsky.social - captures the atmosphere and culture of this Esrolian city. It really pleases me to a ridiculous degree that I can point to this place on the map and identify many of the people. I intend to use this as the cover of this year's Dragonmeet booklet.
Orana and her husbands by @katrindirim.bsky.social . Again her husbands are smaller. I would have liked there to be more husbands (Orana has many many husbands in my Rhigos) but my art budget has flown far far away!
It's too hot to do much, so I am playing at the positioning of some of @katrindirim.bsky.social pieces in the Myths booklet. For fun I decided to make the husbands smaller than the Earth Goddesses. So, Ernalda.....
Filled with annotations - typos, printing issues, changing the copyright and price for the second edition! I'm surprised my friend didn't want to keep these with the paintings, but....
