we are just flares
death is the mother of forms ~
there is a third being:
the empty fullness ~
I am the shadow
that my words cast ~

October 31, 1632: Celebrated Dutch painter Johannes Vermeer is born.

Very few of Vermeer's works have survived the centuries, but arguably his most famous piece is the luminous yet unassuming "The Girl with a Pearl Earring" (1665). 🎨

With your golden hair all fallen below your knee
And your face as white as snowdrops on the lea
And your voice as hollow as the hollow sea?’ The Poor Ghost, Christina Rossetti. 🖼️ Aksel Johannessen, c.1920.

Doesn’t understand the ones in the Order that are a bit ‘too into it’. Doesn’t like doing what he’s told and would prefer eating a donut barefoot on a cliff over following any rule the order dictates.Can come off as childish or spoiled. Very powerful mage and druid.
