#SummerCamp Stuff!   So I ended up having a bit of a mini-theme to the articles I did during the final week of #SummerCamp24 (none of which were actually final week prompts...) - focusing a bit more on the cultural quirks of Amaya, which is my primary setting.   A Myth about Food
Guest's Uprising
Myth | Nov 18, 2024

A legend built on a mostly-probably historical basis that chronicles the rise of the House of Asther via betrayal at a 7-day welcoming feast.

Well, a myth about a feast anyway? The Guest's Uprising - the story of how the great House of Asther came to seize power from the previous royal family... via betrayal during a welcoming feast week.   [B]A Profession Considered Dirty
Samael's Network
Profession | Nov 18, 2024

The network of pets and vermin that keep the Imperator up to date on everything.

A dirty job (spying) done by "dirty" things (...rats... insects... pigeons... raccoons... cats are pretty clean, though.)   A Ritual that represents moral decay.
Luto's Gambit
Tradition / Ritual | Mar 3, 2025

An decennial holiday in Amaya, celebrated with a week-long masquerade ball, numerous feasts and cultural events as well as a great deal of both decadence and debauchery.

A week-long festival celebrating the Guest's Uprising event. Includes a good deal of usually illegal activity, debauchery, general decadence and, of course... the celebration of a betrayal.   Finally, I have an index of all the SC'24 articles that I did!
'24 - Summer Camp Articles!
Generic article | Dec 2, 2024

Articles created for Summercamp '24!

  The last three articles are far rougher than the previous ones, since I didn't finish them until 9 hours before the event ended! But they're still there, and fairly important for the culture of my beloved Amaya. I'll have to clean them up and fancy them up later.   It's also always interesting to write things around Samael because there's just a lot going on there. I'm gonna need to take a week off from work to write his article, clearly.   I don't normally do global posts, and I don't know if I'll continue to do them on a non-event-related basis as they make me a bit nervous.   I might!   But if not, see you all in... I don't know, WorldEmber?
