Ilangoria s Secret Messages and Hidden Clues!

Undead, unclean, olua, witches, dreamers, beauties, fae, moles, and other magical stragglers — plus all those “neither here nor there,” or from the cursed and unindexable roots!

The little Magical World still lingers in the shadows but sends its greetings!

Who are you, and what are you? Over the past month I’ve had +645 new reads — odd, isn’t it, that you’re choosing Prose instead of Patreon, where everything’s just as free, only with sound and pictures. (And sometimes even a video or two gets conjured up there, if it’s Palm Sunday… or if the pancakes turned out particularly good.)

Wherever you’ve found me (even if you didn’t tell a weary witch to go sleep and stop being ill), I’m endlessly glad of you all the same.

Now then — to business!

What’s happening here, you ask? We’ve scattered all sorts of tiny hints wherever you might stumble upon me.

For now, they either lead to hidden fan-lore or theories, or to certain keys. With these you can either read and seek the important bits, or — once the sites ilangoria.com, deadipedia.com, vampirado.com, and the rest are ready (they’re still ripening for now) — you’ll be able to use those keys in the search boxes to uncover secret trails and missions.

And while this sickly creature (the author) keeps on sneezing, don’t expect grand updates just yet — but the little ones, like mushrooms, are sprouting here and there.

For instance?

I’ve just added a teaser for the second musical chapter (QR below), and through it, here’s your next hint:

Did you know that the yh-olua, tiny though they are, have always known their certain sorcery? So our wee Ilangoria, frightened by an uninvited guest, suddenly slipped into the “black speech,” awakening the ancient coven of Witches' Ridge.
“Seven by Seven — as it was, as it shall be,” whispers another witchly clue to all who seek magic…

And how do you greet uninvited guests? Seven by seven is the price of entry into our world of magic, adventure, and witchcraft!

So what does that mean? Ilanke hasn’t yet been trained in olua magic — and yet, what sort of song is this, that awakens ancient witches from their sleep?

What’s the difference between sorcery and magic, then?

You’ll find out very soon in the brand new 17th chapter, which is just about to arrive.

And one more little tease — we’ll soon have special Fan Lights appearing! Don’t miss them!

So, since you’ve all gathered here for your little “read-along,” I suppose I’ll have to start writing here again too!

(And yes — to all new beings without a licence from the Emerald Hills — the Ilangoria Guidebook, maps, and collection are down below on the author’s page, with six or eight chapters so far! And on Patreon there are already sixteen, all free!)

That’s all for now — I’m truly glad. The music’s being written, the sites are being conjured just for you, and though I’m still under the weather, I’m working away like a slow little snail — fuelled by coffee and scratching two heels.

Happy Toloche Festival to everyone! ;;
