I have journals coming out of my ears, so though it is nice, I can't get it. XD I'll have to use the ones I have.

𝓣𝓲𝓷𝓾𝓿𝓲𝓮𝓵 Those all look really cool. Also sorry I haven't mailed you the bloodstone yet. I've been gathering a few other things you may like to go along with it, since the package is going to cost the same to mail either way I figure I might as well pack it with goodies. mintedstar/fur🦇 Hey!! I love your new avatar. That hair is <3.

So, I'm currently struggling with finding names for the gods in my story and recently remembered that one of them is already named after an actual goddess. I was thinking of doing the same for some of the others, but I'm uncertain since I'd hate to seem disrespectful.
For example, let's say one of the countries is inspired by a Slavic country and one of the goddesses is named Morana. Like the Slavic goddess she is named after, the Morana in the story would also be the goddess of death and winter. Keep in mind that the story is still being set in a fictional world.
I'm probably just worrying over nothing and I've already been told it wouldn't be disrespectful, but I'd still like a second opinion just in case. What do you guys think?

Story time: So, a few weeks ago I bought myself a rather large quartz point and that book on programming crystals. Shortly after, I decided to actually go about programming it by cleansing and wiping it and then I left it alone to do something. Except, that night was my bad night where I had some unfortunate memories come back and stuff Happened that was... no bueno. And ever since then the quartz hasn't felt right and if i even hold it it feels like i'm wayy the hell out of wack.
Which is when Dakota suddenly started seeing a thing in the house. He describes it as some sort of light wispy thing and he actually caught a couple pictures of it moving from the bathroom to the closet.
But of course, I carefully had chosen that quartz point and i am still determined to figure out wtf to do here y'know? So I've tried keeping t around. But every time i try to carry it on me or have it in the same room or reprogram it something nearly equally bad happens again. and again. and again. So I've just kinda kept it stored away. Except I can't store it with my other crystals either because when I tried I suddenly felt like my other stones were... distressed? about it being there?
So today here I am trying again and I'm holding the point in my hand and my new staff in the other and am playing with the cat and not paying attention and somewhere in that time frame it vanishes. A whole, rather large quartz. gone out of my hand. I don't know how. We dug EVERYWHERE for it and cleaned the whole apartment. I don't remember putting it down and it was in no logical or illogical places. Just. Poof. I don't know how it happened. I'm confused and a little bit intimidated by it's disappearance.

Those all sound like pretty cool ideas. I've been wanting to make my own staff or wand, but I wouldn't even know where to start. Also late reply but if you want to make one just... do? For me, I waited until I found a particular few sticks that just resonated with me so I knew i had a decent base, and then i just started envisioning assorted things on it and made it happen ig? Like my wand is very special to me even if it doesn't look like much because it's crafted out of things i liked and just seemed to go there or things that held a significance. For one: the wood is from a tree that was in the backyard of my grandmas house/the house i grew up in before she lost it. (Which is also the setting that probably 80% of my dreams take place in....) and for two, the wrap on the handle is cloth that fell off of my overly-loved blanket. (The poor thing is in shreds and I'm too attached to get rid of it.)

And hopefully you'll find your quartz soon. Anyway, there are certainly parallels to our world, and the countries in the story are inspired by real countries, like Russia and Austria for instance, but the setting is still fictional as far as the actual setting goes. Plus, the humans have powers.

The usual way you'd make another arts and crafty thing? Mine uses a few bits of wire and some glue. And I shaved off the rough bits of bark and the notches with a knife by hand and carved out the hollow for the pommel stone. Some people decide to use machines but doing it by hand always made it feel more personal because a bit of your energy is already going into making it that way. Which is also why I was surprised a completely smooth cut stick was what was like "hey, you, yeah. i'm your staff now so you gotta buy me thx."

I'm not sure what to do if i find my quartz again and at this point I almost want to get rid of it now. It makes me so uneasy maybe it's better that its gone even i i did spend quite a bit of money on it. I guess there's my lesson on don't screw it up next time.

In that case, it probably is for the best. What kind of quartz was it? Just plain clear quartz. In fact it was he clearest one i could find, which is probably why it channels the negativity so hard repeatedly and is so difficult to try to undo because my mood really tanks when i hold it so I can't channel it out or try to overwhelm the bad with good when i just get drained. I'd ask my mentor to help IF HE EVER TALKED TO ME. //exasperated sighing.
