The song lyrics are from "The Moon Will Sing" by The Crane Wives.
Some context under the cut.
The woman with glasses is Amynta Price, who my friend Jace (@jinnynotjenny) created. The little boy in her arms is Hayden Price who is mainly Jace's oc, but we both worked on him. The man in the ushanka is Dominic Fernsby, who I created.
All you really need to know for this doodle is that Amynta and Dominic were high school sweethearts who had a messy breakup after Amynta was being toxic and pushed him away. They did both love each other.
Hayden is Amynta's adopted son. By pure chance, it turns out that he's secretly Dominic's biological son from a drunken one-night stand that he doesn't know exists.
If anyone wants any more lore about these two, feel free to send me an ask or dm! I'm sure Jace wouldn't mind questions either :)
Imma have to carry around cheese on my back just for you cuz of how often you show up
Why are there suddenly so many cursed Amulets in Circulation?
Which mad enchanter is Creating them all? Is it a whole workshop of you? Are you training and failing to do anything productive?
If that is the case why aren't you disposing of them in a more sensible manner other than putting them where other People can find them?
I find it more likely that a Mad mage is making and distributing them on Purpose, do we need to do an intervention on someone? Maybe a Hunt?
Any facts about crows
Crows are a type of "Bird," which is itself a type of cloud. We know they are technically clouds because they live in the sky. Crows are a type of dark storm cloud, or "Birbulostratus." Being capable of rain, it is unwise to walk under many crows, or they may rain on you.
Crows are playful and intelligent animals capable of complex vocalizations. They enjoy collecting objects, giving gifts, and helping each other roost, thrive, and heal, with crows being observed literally covering other cold birds with their right wings, making them far more socially advanced and ethical than most right wing humans.
Because Edgar Allan Poe had already hogged Ravens for the goths of his own time, James O'Barr used a crow for his famous modern goth comic book entitled "My Boyfriend's Back And You're Gonna Be In Trouble," later retitled "The Crow" to avoid copyright difficulties.
A group of crows is called a "Murder" because Francoise Dremeigneo, who coined all the modern terms for animal groupings, saw his mother thrown off a roof by several crows, leading him to a career in fashion where he could make an all-crow-leather suit.
Yay! :D
Today is the day, and your overlor- *cough cough* crow friend deman- *COUGH cough cough* requests... Ah hell. PAY TRIBUTE.
Raptors would have been really silly, this is my scientific opinion
