New this week at Torn World
New Stories:
City of Lights: Ithai, by Ellen Million
An incident at a celebration dinner for the City of Lights raises many questions.
This follows City of Lights: Ithei.
Ithai cover art also by Ellen Million.
An Afternoon Made of Stories, by Deirdre Murphy
The winter afternoon started out dull, with lessons in repairing tack. That changes when Ivara suggests that they find something fresh to add to the cook-pot.
For Torn World supporters only.
Travels, by Jessica Douglas, portrays Pumice, a snowy seen in this story.
Licensing Interview, by Deirdre Murphy
Lalya, having agreed to get relicensed as a woman so he and his boyfriend, Dini, can get married, submitted all the proper forms. Then he returned to his job, processing license requests regarding zoning and building. When License Master Baison called him to his office, his first thought was that they were going to discuss someone else's application forms.
This follows Building a Home.
New Art:
Size Comparison Chart, by Holly Hutchison.
A comparison document showing relative sizes of a snow-unicorn rider, a snowy, a mountain goat, a silk-hare, a Southern domestic horse, and two yiirks.
And the cover for Ithai, above!
New Articles:
Northern Storytelling Conventions, by Deirdre Murphy, with development by Elizabeth Barrette
Long winter nights leave the northerners lots of time for entertaining each other--and ample reasons to have conventions for avoiding unintentionally giving offense.
Duurludirj, by Elizabeth Barrette
When the Empire met the Duurludirj, both peoples were thrilled, as they recognized many opportunities to strengthen each other.
And a character who isn't new, but snuck past me when he was:
Karavai: Karavai is a furshirt who lives in Itrelir, also capable at many wilderness skills and some crafts. His handsome features and outgoing personality endear him to friends and lovers alike.
