200 years later the swords and bows are still visible on the ground??? how???
In that dry enviroment the dust should've buried them by now, am I right?
Yeah, this is very much like that scene in Lord of the Rings where Gollum is leading them through what had one been a terrible battlefield...Yes you're right. It should be like that.
But in this case, the author is probably just want to add a spice to show how terrible the eight king war was. There is no complicated reason behind why it defy common sense, and we definitely will never get explanation for that case.
Common thing in high fantasy. Tolkien is already mentioned, but Howard, Burroughs, Lovecraft, Leiber. to name a few of the Greats, used it as well...Thank you for the chapter!

Please correct me of I'm wrong, it's been a few decades since I've read any of the Tolkien books, but Sauron was a necromancer, so in addition of his many other talents, the preservation and animation of the dead seemed to be something he should be capable of.Yeah, this is very much like that scene in Lord of the Rings where Gollum is leading them through what had one been a terrible battlefield...
...And the bodies of the deceased were all perfectly preserved in the water.
Here on Earth, as long as the enviromental condition in a region are correct, metal and some organics can survive for a rather long time. A low humidity wasteland would be one such environment. Add in a bit of magic to further sterilize the region, and I could see objects maintaining a recognizable form for centuries.Common thing in high fantasy.

Old battlesites that saw such terrible battles and temples that saw such foul rituals that Time nor Nature would touch them since.
Curious….was it actually written as banirulala or did LHT fuck up vanilla out of all things?
Thank you for the chapter!

Have you seen what Christian and Muslim had done with personal information of their prophets?Why is Ophelia disappointed at being told to NOT include Yuuki's personal information?
That is way worse than Chernobyl. The only thing that could no longer live in Chernobyl after the meltdown were humans. Plants still grew and most animals were unaffected. Here they turned what was most likely a beautiful prairie into a wasteland that not not even bacteria will enter.So they literally used nuclear magic in that war and now became fantasy Chernobyl.
Ah ok. I was thinking it’s a typo. LHT has been know to occasionally slip on the banana peel, after all.![]()
『バニルララの花』
Banirurara no hana
A made-up name for fantasy vanilla flower.
shame there's no full cooking process to be shown but it seems to be like some sort of drop cookie like a pecan sandie but instead of a powdered sugar topping it's a basic cookie glaze which is usually 2 cups powdered sugar, 3 teaspoons of lukewarm water, and a teaspoon of vanilla extract for a light glaze.but... where's the exact cookie recipe???
you gave me something to do for the next weekend. very nice!shame there's no full cooking process to be shown but it seems to be like some sort of drop cookie like a pecan sandie but instead of a powdered sugar topping it's a basic cookie glaze which is usually 2 cups powdered sugar, 3 teaspoons of lukewarm water, and a teaspoon of vanilla extract for a light glaze.
but there's also this icebox cookie recipe:
- 4 cups sifted flour
- 3 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 cup butter or other shortening
- 2 eggs, well beaten
- 1/2 cup brown sugar (firmly packed)
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- 1 cup nut meats(example: walnuts/pecans), chopped
- 1 tbsp vanilla
Sift flour once, measure, add baking powder & salt and sift again. Cream butter thoroughly, add sugars gradually, and cream together until light and fluffy. Add eggs, nuts and vanilla. Add flour gradually, mixing well. Shape into rolls 1.5 inches in diameter and roll in waxed paper. Chill overnight or until dough is firm enough to slice. Cut into 1/8 inch slices. Bake on ungreased baking sheet in a hot oven (425°F) 5 min or until done. Makes 7 dozen cookies.
