Let me tell you a tale of the swan prince and princess
Two young lovers by the name of Caer Ibormeith and Aengus
He searched the globe to find her and she sent him dreams
Yet when he laid eyes upon her he found she is not all she seems
She turned into a bird and looked up at him with deep black eyes
And so he made himself a swan as well, and swam off with her into the sunrise
This celtic tale is thought to be a basis for many swan tales including Swan Lake and The Swan Princess, but finding hard evidence for this is difficult as many swan tales exist. as always I encourage you to do your own research.
Caer Ibormeith is a goddess of dreams and prophecy, and she marries the god of beauty and youth Aengus Og after they "fly off together in the form of a pair of swans." Source: The Dictionary of Celtic Mythology by James MacKillop.

Inktober Day 13: Rise
Day 13 of my first @inktober. The prompt was Rise. Rise and shine to Qwertational (Twitter and Bluesky), well, metaphorically, since bats are nocturnal. Happy Birthday Qwertational!

Inktober 2023
Jour 13
Hausse
J'avoue, j'aurais aimé trouver comment illustrer "grimper dans l'estime de soi" mais à la place j' ai choisi le classique grimpeur d'escalade.
🧗🏼♀️
Encore une activité sportive qui me fait fuir, tout simplement parce que j'ai le vertige sur une chaise.
🪑
J'avoue que pratiquer un sport où l'on risque sa vie est un concept qui m'échappe totalement.
🪂
Je ne sais pas encore quel sport extrême me fait le plus angoisser entre le VTT dans les canyons, le saut en wingsuit.
🚵🏼♀️
Selon vous, quel est le sport le plus flippant ou le plus dingue ?
