Not an artist: Six swords from Oracle of Seasons that channel the power of the elemental sovereigns.

Six swords from Oracle of Seasons that channel the power of the elemental sovereigns.

Magical Boomerang: The magical boomerang is recovered from the Ancient Ruins, the sixth dungeon Link explores during his adventures around and under Holodrum. The magic of the boomerang allows Link to control its path after throwing as well as making it fly longer strike harder than the mundane boomerang.

While the magic boomerang is obviously a magical wind weapon, I was struggling to come up with an evocative item to draw. I had already drawn Trueflame and didn’t want to exclude its sister weapon Hopesfire. Since Hopesfire has a shock damage enchantment, I decided to channel the wind theme from the Elemental Fury dragon shout or the Windfury totem. Since I had already drawn two elements at that point, I decided to just finish out the rest of the elemental damage types. I also just included a blank ebony scimitar for good measure.

Given only to the most trusted and skilled warriors in service to the elemental forces, these scimitars are able to channel the powers of the elemental sovereigns the warriors serve. The power of each sovereign manifests differently on the blade, but they all clearly show the bearer's allegiance. The connection to the elemental power is instantly severed if the warrior is slain or if they lose their master’s favor.

Brace yourself, election day is coming. 

Please vote.

Voter turnout sucks in the U.S. I feel like a lot of that is to do with the fact that so much is done to make voting hard, but it is so important that you use your power and vote. Take the country's future in your hand. Help guide the ship to better waters.

I don’t want to tell you how to vote, but again, I implore you to remember that all people deserve equal rights and dignity. We should also all have the chance to lead full and healthy lives.

Be excellent to everyone.
