Summer Camp 2022 Pledge

Link to my progress page!
I am hereby pledging to complete the Summer Camp 2022 on the ¤¤DIAMOND¤¤ level!

Aftermath

I completed all the 31 prompts! Here are some of the articles I wrote, organised by the theme that the article is about.

Black years / Crescent eruption

I wrote up a number of differing descriptions of the Eruption in Accounts of the Crescent Eruption. Mpe-ar is the city destroyed by the eruption, and Ebzim tree is a rare species of tree found on the island that survived the eruption.

Democracy / government of Silford

Citizen of Silford
Senate of Silford
Senate House of Silford
Silford General Elections

Giant culture and the Giant Wars

The culture of Stone Giants is living in Bonehold and guarding the Gates of Waumin. Their king is Femur. The giants practise Man Flesh Hunts, raids to take resources and captives from the humans. They also raise Deep crawlers, that produce the Deep crawler nectar that the giants ferment into an alcoholic beverage.

Underworld

During Ásinnar's Journey to the Underworld she travels through the Gates of Waumin, discovers the Herd of the Underworld (a species of spider demon), and finally meets the Lord of the Underworld himself: Ulalte. I also wrote about a rite dedicated to him: Libations of Ulalte.

Artanan culture

I wrote about a new city of Artana, who are the rivals of Fares (Silford). Their main religious practice is the Cult of Leitandár that worships in the Caves of Leitandár.

Greystone

I expanded on the properties of Greystone, by figuring out the details of Greystone smithing and the Soulessness caused by greystone weapons. I also wrote about one greystone artifact: Uçinyarr Blade.

Goals

My goal is to do some world building every day to keep up with the challenge.

This year I hope to do relevant worldbuilding for writing the story of Daursan and Kauteirin in a novel form. I already started this project for NaNoWriMo last year, and continued to expand on it during WE2021.

Prompts

I think the Leadership prompts could be about the leaders of the War of the Giants, or early Silford (City State).

The Monstrous promts could help me expand the mythical monster catalogue of my world.

Right now I'm hugely inspired by the new Warfront album from Wind Rose.
