I'm Feeling Loved
Feb. 25th, 2007 01:52 amAnd this is a good thing, because I have chronically low self-esteem. I know I'm good academically but less good people wise, and I tend to blow things out of proportion in my head. I know that this is a mental thing. I know that I am loved. But telling meself does not help much.
Nearly nine hours of ASRP munchat, on the other hand, does wonders for my frame of mind.
Anyway, things to understand this one:
Heres Tanarill is a witch in the Discworld style of witches. This is because while she was in the Shattering Maze, the Walkers' version of boot camp, she was batshit for a really long time and the only people who could stand to be around her until she got it under control were these strong minded women who also happened to be witches. She sort of picked up the magic along the way.
When Heres Tanarill is freaking out, or thinks she's going to have to perform a major magic, she'll react by going and finding simple, repetitive manual labor to do. It will help to center her, while at the same time building up a lot of power for doing magic with. Right now, she's doing both. And CW has a huge mansion.
She hasn't tried summoning Eska again yet.

Discworld witches are powerful, because they tend to treat things in their sphere of influence as theirs. And Gods help anything that tries to hurt what's theirs.
