Nous avons rencontré des canards, des cyclistes (!?), des bateaux, des dragons, des serpents, des châteaux…
Une belle première étape jusqu'à Frossay sur la #LoireAVelo de 23,5 km, un peu longue vers la fin (mais en fait non parce qu'une glace et un sirop de fraise et c'est repartiiiii ! - merci aux personnes du Quai vert d'ailleurs)

So gerade die #Pathfinder Kampange beendet und #Ydersius getötet; das Schwert der #Azlanti war dafür aber mehr als nutzlos, daher habe ich dann doch lieber weiter mit meinem Hammer gekämpft.
Damit ist das #SerpentsSkull Abenteuer leider zu Ende :rm_crying:

Owning animals continues to fascinate me.
I've been a python owner now for maybe just over 6 months. Both my serpents shed nice and regular, and I usually catch the signs within the fortnight. But I've never actually seen the process. Usually, in the morning, there's a sparkly snake and a lovely shed waiting for me to remove. Just now, Armie, my #StimsonsPython gave me a viewing, which I had no sign off! I totally missed it, only just the last few days thinking maybe he was going to and I'd missed the key indicator. Their eyes stop sparkling and go an opache, milky blue colour as secretion is released from the skin under the dead skin to facilitate the shed. Took him only a few minutes. So quick! Very smooth and easy, the shed itself is perfectly intact.
Seems like nothing, but after such a short time, I feel encouraged in terms of how I'm doing as a reptile owner. It shows me he is healthy and that he has everything he needs in his environment. Trouble with simple, regular things like shedding is one of the few times you get an idea that something is wrong, since reptiles don't emote very much, and are remarkably robust in many ways.
And now I've seen a snake shed in real life! Which is fucking cool.

Útgarðar – Fire Smoked Upon the Wolf’s Back Review
By Dear Hollow
Norse mythology pervading black metal is nothing new. Due to the style’s Scandinavian origins, it would not surprise me to see Lucifer and Odin taking swigs of Christian blood together in a burning Waffle House in like Tromsø, for instance. Norse Paganism has always been the wingman for anti-Christianity under Metallum’s profile lyrical themes, so the slaughter of Ymir and the rise of Yggdrasil across the yawning void Ginnungagap, the rivalry of Loki and Thor, and the fierce matchups of Ragnarök have long captured the imaginations of the western world. In this way, Útgarðar offers little new, as you’ll find the nine worlds, the great frost-giant Ymir, the trolls, and the formidable ferocity of the wolves Fenrir, Sköll, and Hati all play a part. A tangible thread of storytelling courses through the thirty-two minutes of debut Fire Smoked Upon the Wolf’s Back.
You may recognize Útgarðar’s two members, as American instrumentalist Niðafjöll (Nathan Verschoor) is known for his work with recent Uada, Veiled, and Altars of the Moon, while Swedish vocalist/guitarist Seiðr (Andreas Westholm) features a storied discography with acts like Blackest, Seid, and Serpent Omega. Both members offer a distinctly down-tuned sound, heavier guitar tone, and more “deathened” snarls adding to the rotten sound, but Fire Smoked Upon the Wolf’s Back is black metal through and through: Útgarðar offers their caustic and vicious interpretation of unholy trinity of blastbeats, shrieks, and tremolo. Refusing to settle into monotony, the duo manages a ritualistic flare and doomed atmosphere that makes it hard to shake, as the frost of the Scandinavian pines and the solemnity of the setting sun are felt in every movement.
Útgarðar utilizes a powerful and simple approach, balancing memorable melody, caustic blackened attacks, and ritualistic doom – tied together into dynamic songwriting. While intro “The Pyres of Utgard” offer the former two in a vicious track whose only reprieve is the haunting clean vocals buried behind slower passages, “Ymir Awakens” and “Trolls of Muspel Trolls of Frost” are clear centerpieces, brimming with tension between its ambient lulls, vicious tremolo, and doom weight – even the ambient passages feature subtle percussion injecting a fire throughout. This continues into the more subdued closers, “Fire Smoked Upon the Wolf’s Back” and “Under Soil,” in which ritualistic atmosphere takes front and center, such as in the pulsing percussion and shamanistic chants of the title track or the rotten ambient sprawl of the album closer. While balance is a clear priority for Útgarðar, each cut features a distinct melodic motif that adds to the memorability of the album, as the cleans of the title track or the guitar/vocal melodies of “Under Soil” elevate an otherwise despondent set of tracks.
There are no directly negative tracks within Fire Smoked Upon the Wolf’s Back, and largely Útgarðar’s only sin is its inconsistent mood. The contrast between the fiery second-wave of “The Pyres of Utgard” and the shamanistic despair of “Under Soil” is stark. While the best-of-both-worlds “Ymir Awakens” and “Trolls of Muspel Trolls of Frost” smoothen this transition in what would be an album-long dynamic, they settle neatly into three separate approaches instead. The highlights are so because of their haunting blend of energy and atmosphere, while the closing tracks dispel with much of the energy while the opener foregoes atmosphere. In a way, the album then feels like a Viking Venn diagram, with the centerpieces constituting the near-perfect overlap.
That’s not to say that Útgarðar shoots themselves in the foot, because I haven’t quite experienced the haunting and evocative quality of Asatro-themed black metal that actually feels authentic and organic the way Fire Smoked Upon the Wolf’s Back does. It plays it relatively safe in terms of the second wave, but its infusion of doom filth and ritualistic primacy simply adds up to this: a damn good black metal album. While moods are disparate, you won’t care because every one of them is accomplished with rotten grit and otherworldly darkness undergirded by tense Norseman violence. Furious black metal, ritualistic menace, and mammoth weight have a weapon in this particular Ragnarök, and you’ll be glad to die by Odin’s side for Útgarðar.

(And a little snippet more)
Emily looked at Gwen in horror "Did it hurt?"
She got a twisted smile in return "Unless you are an egg, like these ones", she gestured at the serpents, "being born always does. But yes, 'Len, I am still your sister in my heart, even if the heart itself is a little different now. And as the big sister..."
"Nope! You're the little sister now. You got born a second time. And after me, that makes you the little sister!"#GwenAndGrey #SFF #Fantasy #Dragon #Ghost #IAmWriting
