(Left) The cover of Troll Song, by Owen Tyme, Illustrated by Ryan Johnson.

There's a woman in mud spattered white, leather armor crossing a pair of short swords against the neck of a terrified, shirtless dwarf.

The woman has white hair and a darker skin tone on the left side of her face. Her left eye is green and her right eye is blue.

The dwarf's hair and beard are blond.

The background is a green forest, with some flowers among the tall grass.

(Right) The background is a snow-covered forest, with a pair of dark silhouettes in it, one small and the other large, like a giant. The smaller silhouette is of a young woman walking away and the interior is filled with musical symbols, in green, white and two shades of blue. The larger silhouette is a woman wielding two swords and the interior is full of blood spatter. The larger one appears to be chasing the smaller one.

The following text is laid over the scene:

“I can’t die until Lyra takes her last breath! She’ll regret betraying her sisters!”

“There’s no price I won’t pay to see that happen, no pain I won’t endure and I’d sacrifice the whole world to seal her fate!”

The gods are dead. All that’s left are the Players...

The performers of the Playhouse are as worshipped as they are feared, their enchanting shows bending hearts, minds, and even reality itself. Vicious, godlike, lethal. Eighteen-year-old Riven Hesper knows the dangers better than anyone, after her own encounter with a Player resulted in a curse that is slowly killing her.

When the Playhouse announces the spectacle of a lifetime—a chance for one mortal to steal a Player’s immortality—Riven sees her last chance to live. Desperate for answers, she infiltrates the competition. There, she finds Jude, the Playhouse’s brilliant, merciless Lead Player, whose charm is as dangerous as his Craft, and strikes a deadly bargain to save her life.

But with time running out and the Playhouse’s secrets unraveling into a disturbing picture, Riven faces a grim possibility: she might not be the hero of her story after all. In fact, she may be the villain.

Because the Playhouse doesn’t just tell stories. It rewrites them.

And Riven’s might end in blood.

Caraval meets One Dark Window in this lush and dark romantasy.

(Left) The cover of She Hunts Demons, by Owen Tyme, illustrated by Ryan Johnson.

Sitting on the roof of a building in New York City is a teenage girl wearing an old, black dress, fingerless, elbow-length black gloves and a battered, black top hat, with a blue rose attached to the band. The tearing of her clothes hints that she's recently been in a fight. Her hair is short, but messy. Her eyes are blue.

In her hands is a wakizashi, a short sword of Japanese design. The tsuba, or hilt guard, is in the shape of an opening, blue rose. The blade shines blue.

The image is black and white, aside from the details in blue, hinting at film-noir influences in the art.

(Right) An image of a dog with glowing, red eyes, with the following text laid over it:

“Will we ever be safe again?”

“Your people call you traitor, as do mine. Hunted by Heaven and Hell alike, there’s nowhere we could turn for peace.”

“Will our daughter ever know peace?”

“I pray she will.”

Dante and Beatrice before the eagle of Justice from Dante’s Divina Commedia, illustrated by Giovanni di Paolo (c1444-50).

A medieval illuminated manuscript painting on a rich blue background, depicting two robed figures in flowing pink and blue garments floating beside an extraordinary eagle whose entire body, wings, and feathers are composed of dozens of small human faces. The gold-leaf bordered miniature illustrates a scene from Dante's "Paradiso," showing Dante and Beatrice encountering the eagle symbolizing divine Justice.

BIRTHDAY MONTH'S ESSENTIALS $375+ DEADLINE 16/06/2026 June minimum for basic survival: $375 $250 groceries $90 utilities + water $35 internet + phone data This is before meds, and before the building maintenance fee landing this month. Monthly pledges are the most sustainable way to support this. One-off contributions also help. Sharing this post costs nothing and extends reach beyond exhausted circles. This keeps me fed, medicated, and able to sustain the mutual aid infrastructure and writing I've been building. The work continues either way. It's just harder when I'm hungry.

Goddard Broadside of the Declaration of Independence, with "Printed by Mary Katharine Goddard" at bottom.

This is the Goddard Broadside, an early printed copy of the Declaration of Independence, printed by Mary Katharine Goddard in Baltimore, Maryland.

It bears John Hancock's name prominently as President of Congress, with delegates' names organized by state (Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Maryland, Virginia, Pennsylvania, Delaware, New York, New Jersey, New Hampshire, Massachusetts Bay, Rhode Island, and Connecticut).

They found my profile, saw the survival request, and decided that settled it. The visible need was always the weapon. Below are people whose visible need I am asking you to meet, or carry further than my feed can reach.

<h4 class="article-title"> <a href="https://wrzky.com/mutual-aid-requests-roundup-03-06-2026/">Mutual Aid Requests Roundup 03/06/2026</a> </h4> <figure class="article-cover"> <img src="https://wrzky.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/Building-International-Coalitions-Starts-Online--724x1024.png" alt="" loading="lazy"> </figure> <div class="article-body"> 944 words4–6 minutes<p>Happy Pride! And Happy Men’s Mental Health Awareness Month!</p><p>I know that’s right. It’s around this month that I usually fought misogynists and bigots on the internet, who unsurprisingly were both men… and some women, for some patriarchal reasons. And usually around this month, I had inner turmoil about whether or not I should channel my inner murabiyyah to remind fellow Muslims about the moral lessons behind the story of people of Luth (Prophet Lot), which always ended up forgotten and I got distracted by more pressing matters like doxxing and death threats for instance. But those were my Threads days, which also allegedly contributed to my getting permanently banned. Your girl was deranged, and positively unsafe for the harmful.</p><p>What they all had in common, every single adversary across every single conflict, was that at some point they found their way to my profile, saw the survival request pinned there or linked in my bio, and decided that settled it. Either I was a beggar, which meant my politics could be dismissed — I was essentially just an influencer, after all — or I was a scammer, which meant I could be reported to the authorities of their choice, or they thought doxxing me or telling me to die would be cute. The visible need was always the weapon. It still is.</p><p>The idea that you hold a strong principle on certain things while simultaneously needing mutual aid to survive makes whatever your principle is illegitimate and makes you an easy target to dismiss. That’s how you know your presence, with your principles and visible needs in all wholeness, disrupts something. </p><p>Below are people whose visible need I am asking you to meet, or to carry further than my feed alone can reach.
