Please bear with me - will update tomorrow, too sleepy to collate and type😳

For Saku (@Sakura24) - if anything that I have mentioned below, is an infringement on your copyrighted story, please let me know and I shall delete the same.




My visualisation for the FF - Vajra written by Saku(@Sakura24).

Well the banner sucks😕, or maybe not but her tale is magical and spellbinding. ❤️


And I am back to write up the credits for the above.😳

Background (absolutely not visible😆)- plain black background downloaded from the net.

Visible background - Fantasy wallpaper showing the Tree of life - the Hertz .

C4D render - downloaded from the free resources on SigTutorials.com

Top left hand corner - the blade Aithne being forged in dragon fire and dragon blood. Both the picture of the blacksmith and the blue dragon downloaded from freely available wallpapers.

Top right hand corner - the snake symbols - The same is a picturisation of Auryn serpent knot

[AURYN is a talisman from the novel Die Unendliche Geschicte (The Neverending Story), also featured in the movie as a mystical necklace referenced as "The Gem - The Glory". A double headed serpent biting its own tail, or two mythological serpents symetrically biting one another's tail form an oval yet are not intertwined, in the book.

The ancient symbol of snakes biting each other, or ouroboros, is where AURYN is derived from. Various cultures contain the historical accounts of such a symbol. AURYN involves one serpent being white, the other black. One eye red, the other green.

Given the complete version as the infinity knot or grief knot appearing as an intricate variation of the figure "8" infinity symbol, or sign of the ouroboros. Duality is what the two snakes represent. The dual nature of the two worlds, one Phantsien (Fantastica or Fantasia) and the other Reality. Also AURYN stands for the twin nature of the two snakes, and their mutual creation and destruction. ]

The Eye (centre) - is the artwork - "The all seeing eye" by_manowar100-d3fdyzp downloaded from DeviantArt.com

The blade Aithne (centre, below the eye)- again downloaded from the net (wallpapers for fantasy swords). [the wording is my addition - using the font- Windings3]

The people / warriors / princesses - are all downloaded from the net, no creators mentioned, in case, any of the stray readers of this post, recognise the work please let me know and I shall update the same. Left to right they represent - Annapurna, Suvanna / Ragini, Laksh, Sanskaar, Mohan and Swara.😊

Title layer style - downloaded (Copyright to Estilo)

Nyna

ETA - May 2, 2017. Changes made as requested by Sakura@24.

Her posting the above banner in her FF is the highest praise I can receive. Thank you, sweetheart, it means a lot to me.🤗

I have not seen the movie, not surprised but I somehow missed reading the book, will add it to my list.

I am not sure if he attributed to Chesterton in the book, but he did clarify in his official tumblr post, which I have included in my post. Once I read the book (maybe the later editions could have it,) I will let you know.😊

And yes, the confusion persists till date, there is a thread on Goodreads, where people literally got into a fight.🤣



I really liked the movie!
Okay, I thought you read the book.
Yeah, I saw, people fight a lot online. I am not sure why. Though it is easy to get embroiled in the nonsense.

Can I post something here Nyna??
I penned down something yesterday. And being slightly low, I dont know how it came out.
I dont wish to go and post on SR forum because I am not even sure if I'll write further.

Absolutely, actually I think I should be angry that you even wanted to ask whether you can post - this is for all of us - go ahead. I am honoured that you think of posting it here.

love

I am accused of having a temper, maybe they are right but is it so wrong to have a temper?


Is temper just an emotional outburst or is it a vehement declaration of firm intentions? Or maybe it is the fire that burns within me, a fire that lights up the path for me. Maybe it is a fire that cleanses all the negativity that rises when I hear what some people say or intend. Maybe it is a flame that burns all those snide remarks -not thin enough, not fair enough not malleable enough not...

Maybe it is the glowing embers of the ashes from which I shall rise, like a phoenix, yet again.



Even if I clap for this 👏, wouldn't be enough.
Even if I salute you for this, ❤️, wouldn't be enough.
To say, I love this, wouldn't be enough.

To say, this fascinated me, would be adequate I guess🤗
Ah, there are certain things, lines, words that just hit you straight in your heart, and no matter what, you can't take them off your mind ever.

This one belongs to that category for me.
I remember to have read this quite a while before, and you wouldn't believe I have screenshot of this in my phone. And almost every next day, I sit back to re-read this...
