SWEETBITTER SONG by Rosie Hewlett
- f/f

which is rather insidious because the author , i'm pretty sure, is central european or british 😭 cus Colchis is current time Georgea so she would've looked like any other greek

on colchis nurgle specifically being worshipped as a mother goddess makes me feel insane. motherhood and creation of life being an aspiration close to godliness… this is a core tenet of the faith he grew up with even amongst the less piously educated…!!! (crazy)

My second Word Bearers Wardog, "Vharadesh", named after the City of Grey Flowers, the capital of Colchis.

Grey flowers were my first idea for a Knight's armor, they did not come out perfect but I love it nonetheless.

of all things to cause me brain damage from Bearer of the Word i wouldnt have expected "prayer verse where it's mentioned for like 1 second that on colchis nurgle is a life/mother goddess" to be one of them that i keep coming back to. thinking about it feels like electrocuting myself a little

And lost her grip on the Ram. She plunged to her death; The region was named Hellespont in remembrance of her. Today, it’s named Dardanelles Strait. Prince Phrixus made it safely to the island of Colchis where he was welcomed by King Aeetes (later an antagonist to Jason and the Argonauts).

🏺 Who was Medea, the terrible enchantress? In Greek mythology, Medea is the daughter of Aeëtes, King of Colchis, and Eidyia. She’s the granddaughter of Oceanus, Tethys & Helios, and niece of Circe. She appears in Euripides’ ‘Medea’ & Apollonius of Rhodes’ ‘Argonautica’. She’s also Jason's wife.

🏺 When Jason had to retrieve the Golden Fleece for King Pelias, Aphrodite persuaded her son Eros to strike Medea with his arrow to make her fall in love with Jason. This led Medea to help Jason steal the fleece from King Aeëtes, before murdering her own brother Apsyrtus as the two escaped Colchis.

Regardless, when Phrixus arrived at Colchis, he either sacrifices the Ram, or the Ram itself chooses to give up it's fleece and becomes a constellation, the spring is a time the seas are rough and grain is sown; the king Aeetes gave his daughter Khalkiope with whom he had four sons who Jason rescued
