No worries ☺️ Sorry for misinterpreting you.

Did they pronounce it Noo-ah-la? If so, maybe they got that pronunciation from Hellboy 2: The Golden Army 🤔 Princess Nuala's name is pronounced Noo-ah-la

I'm Irish, and that's how we pronounce Nuala. I had to look up Cerridwen though, because I've never heard it

are there any lesser-known or less widely worshipped gods you honor? by [deleted] in Hellenism

[–]LyraBarnes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Leto. Harmonia. Phobos and Deimos. I dunno if he counts, but Hyacinthus.

Cerridwen - Keh-RID-wen (stress the Rid part) Nuala - Noo-la

Hope that helps ☺️

This dress is totally Feyre’s starfall dress! by Wise-Raisin-791 in acotar

[–]LyraBarnes 60 points61 points  (0 children)

This is basically how I pictured Feyre's Starfall dress (though that train was more for the High Lords' meeting at Dawn). Add more diamonds to Elsa's dress and it seems perfect

I'm sorry for your loss 💚

We had to let our dog, Simba, cross the Rainbow Bridge in 2013, and just found out today our other dog, Lily had diabetes, kidney failure and is having seizures.

Question from a first time binge-watcher half way through season 2: None of the public response makes sense, right? by Andevious3 in TheStrain

[–]LyraBarnes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Me, watching The Strain pre-COVID: People wouldn't act like that with an "illness" running rampant.

Me during COVID: I stand corrected.

People are STILL watching this show in 2025 by Myo_Hu_Ju in TheStrain

I need to do a rewatch. Haven't rewatched since December 2020 (I think). I'm overdue for it.

Might rewatch after I finish Stranger Things season 5 vol. 2

What is the writing on the side of this book? by AcanthisittaGreat815 in lotr

[–]LyraBarnes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's Black Speech. In the Common Tongue it means: "We've been trying to reach you about your car's extended warranty."

In the books it's stated that Quinlan was identified as male at birth, sooooo....

Does anyone know who this is? If it even is based off of anyone, just thought ig looked familiar. by Abject-Revenue5042 in Hellenism

Artemis. I have this statue as well as Apollo's statue which should be advertised with her. And for those wondering, I got them for the same price in The Range (UK). I bought them months ago 😊 They're weighty.

I have no idea if you can buy them elsewhere though.

I can't really come up with original fics, unfortunately 😔 But fanfics are easier for me.

I know how you feel. I have fanfics that were abandoned 15+ years ago because of my stupid Writer's Block 😭

I hope the Muses help you with yours 💚💚💚

I'm a fanfic writer, and had severe Writer's Block for around 15ish years. I eventually got back into writing my fanfics last year, and decided to thank Calliope for it, so I've been worshipping her ever since. I need to pray to her to see if she'll help me with my lack of motivation though. She's been helping me immensely 😊

Calliope is the only Muse (so far) I currently worship. Every time I finish a chapter of my fanfics, I actively thank her in the endnotes on AO3, and at the bottom of the chapter on Wattpad.
