Hello everybody! 

Hope you had a wonderful week!

Mine was uneventful once again;<;

But I mean, the 4th of July is this week, so uh... I am probably not going to be sleeping on Thursday- ;D

Anyway, though, I know what you are here for. 

The lore. 

The lore that I promised last week.

Where is it? 

Well, I shall show you. 

After some art! :D

First, we have the Ancient civilization of Sumer! 

I tried basing his design on some art about Sumer I saw online, which took a while. I mean, the hat didn't come out the way I wanted;-;

But yeah. Here is Sumer.

I also was going to add the Akkadian Empire, but I lost motivation halfway through due to his outfit looking like he was from the wrong era;-;

Anyway then I chose to do art on this:

SO yeah! After I learned that I drew this:

I will just say, IT MIGHT BE A WHILE BEFORE I DRAW VENICE AGAIN BECAUSE, OH MY GOSH, HE WAS HARD TO DRAW.

The Republic of Ragusa is in the front, being happy that he is independent, while the Kingdom of Hungary (I prefer the 1800s flag, but at the time, this was the flag of Hungary) and Venice just watch. 

Venice hates life at the moment. 

Of course, I mentioned the 4th of July, which is an important holiday in America. But this week, another country is celebrating something special. 

You probably already see where I am going with this, but anyways, I decided if I was going to give y'all some America art next week, why not give you some Canada art this week?!

Canada with his Provinces and Territories (along with his capital, which you can spot underneath his hat).

This took a longggggggg time. However, it was 100% worth it. 

My favorite province to draw would probably have been Newfoundland. But as for territories, I enjoyed drawing Yukon. 

SO yeah happy early Canada Day! :)

After I drew this, I decided to draw some historical Canadian balls. Though I may have forgotten a couple so if I did, I am sorry-

New France is on the top left corner, just chilling while the Province of Quebec is on the other side sleeping, then at the bottom, we have Upper Canada and Lower Canada, who are just being siblings. 

In the left corner, we have the Republic of Lower Canada, who is.. doing... idk just sitting there. 

On the other side, we have the Province of Newfoundland being happy, and at the bottom left, we have the Dominion of Newfoundland. 

Finally, we have British North America, and I was too lazy to draw ears because, yes.

 Now the last two aren't historical I just wanted to draw them.

We got Labrador and Newfoundland (tri-color) 

They are so sweet.

Alright, I think I have stalled enough. I know why you are here.. for the Lore.. so let's get this Lore cooking, shall we?

I am sorry if that came out weird I didn't know how else to phrase it ;-;

A country stood on a rocky cliffside, surveying the ocean before him. He calmly listened to the waves crashing against the rocks below as he stared at the watery blue depths of the sea. He seemed to be lost in thought. Not even the squawking birds above could distract him. D̶̛̛̬̤͕̹͇̍̊̎̽̌̕͠ê̸̛̮͉̫̝̱̍s̷̡̯̞̬̺̱̒̽̿̈́̀̂̋͘͝m̷̡̠̦̭̯̙̜̜̟̎͜o̸͈̬̭͉̱͍̫̯̒͂̐̔̎̏̃̕n̵̻̲̠̗̣̩̱̠̾̽͆͐̂͗͋́͝ͅd̸͇͐͌̇͌͆͝ didn't even notice as another person walked towards him carefully and quietly. He didn't even know that she was there until she stopped beside him. He looked around and, upon realizing who it was, sighed and looked back at the ocean.

"I thought I would find you here," she said in a casual, bored tone as she stopped beside him.

"And you were right, it seems," he replied coolly, still looking down at the waves below. Afterward, silence followed before he spoke again, "I am afraid this plan is doomed to fail."

She didn't reply for a second or two. She tried making eye contact but then just looked down at the rocky cliffside and replied, "I know A̷̼͈͕͇͉͚̩̐t̵̡̧͇̪͕̜̰͇͑̈́̎͜ͅh̸̞̦̰̭̰̻͚͚̔ͅa̶̦̳͖͔̟͙̖͖͂ḭ̴̹͙͙̻͙̏̓̋̀̎͆͋̕̕͜r̴̳̞̘͖̙̈̈̾͝. I fear that as well. But we cannot lose hope now. Not after everything we've done to prepare.."

"I know. I understand it took ages, and I want to fight as well I just fear the outcome of this... the retaliation could end up being brutal, we know how HE is." As he spoke, he still didn't look at her; his gaze was still fixated on those crashing blue waves.

"What happened to the person who used to tell me fear was a great enemy of mine and that I should never be afraid? Oh and also that if I run out of a battle out of fear, I should probably just allow myself to be killed." She joked and glanced over at D̶̛̛̬̤͕̹͇̍̊̎̽̌̕͠ê̸̛̮͉̫̝̱̍s̷̡̯̞̬̺̱̒̽̿̈́̀̂̋͘͝m̷̡̠̦̭̯̙̜̜̟̎͜o̸͈̬̭͉̱͍̫̯̒͂̐̔̎̏̃̕n̵̻̲̠̗̣̩̱̠̾̽͆͐̂͗͋́͝ͅd̸͇͐͌̇͌͆͝, who still wouldn't look at her. She had a wide smirk on her face now.

"I did say that didn't I? Though, I don't recall the last part," He replied, chuckling slightly and ending his sentence with a tired sigh. Silence followed once more. She opened her mouth a couple of times in an attempt to speak and make conversation but nothing came to mind. That was until D̶̛̛̬̤͕̹͇̍̊̎̽̌̕͠ê̸̛̮͉̫̝̱̍s̷̡̯̞̬̺̱̒̽̿̈́̀̂̋͘͝m̷̡̠̦̭̯̙̜̜̟̎͜o̸͈̬̭͉̱͍̫̯̒͂̐̔̎̏̃̕n̵̻̲̠̗̣̩̱̠̾̽͆͐̂͗͋́͝ͅd̸͇͐͌̇͌͆͝ spoke, but he looked at her this time.

"I need you to make me a promise."

She tilted her head. "Well it depends, what kind?"

He sighed. "Look. I just need you to promise me... promise me that if something goes wrong in this rebellion or if he decides one day he wants me gone, please kill me."

"What?!" She replied, shock etched in her voice. She fully turned to stare directly at him. Her eyes were wide; she seemed to think he was joking. How could he be serious? 

"You heard me."

"No! Are you insane?! How- why-?!" She didn't even finish her sentence. She didn't know how to respond to this. She felt like this was some cruel joke that was being played on her. D̶̛̛̬̤͕̹͇̍̊̎̽̌̕͠ê̸̛̮͉̫̝̱̍s̷̡̯̞̬̺̱̒̽̿̈́̀̂̋͘͝m̷̡̠̦̭̯̙̜̜̟̎͜o̸͈̬̭͉̱͍̫̯̒͂̐̔̎̏̃̕n̵̻̲̠̗̣̩̱̠̾̽͆͐̂͗͋́͝ͅd̸͇͐͌̇͌͆͝ knew why she wouldn't. How could she? She refused to be like HIM. But she was stuck there wondering if this was a mind game. She couldn't figure it out.

"I know you're reluctant but listen, I would rather you kill me than anybody else around us." He raised a hand and tried to put it on her shoulder. Instead, she pulled away and took a step back.

"And that makes it okay, does it?! You know I could never do that I don't want to be like..." Her voice cracked and trailed off. She looked away. She couldn't face him. To her, he was asking the impossible. She never wanted to be like him. 

"I know we've never always agreed on everything," he said, speaking up; it seemed he was trying to be sympathetic.

"Yeah you think.." she muttered under her breath; if he heard this, though, he probably ignored it.

"But if you could do only one favor for me this would be it. So please forget the past for a moment so that I can be at peace knowing it will be your hand that kills me in the end and not anybody else's, specifically you know who.."

Silence followed these words until she spoke, her voice a calm, deadpan tone. "Fine. I promise."

End.

I CAN'T BELIEVE I AM POSTING THIS AGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

But, uh, yeah, that is your lore. 

If you are wondering who the other character is, all I will say is that A̷̼͈͕͇͉͚̩̐t̵̡̧͇̪͕̜̰͇͑̈́̎͜ͅh̸̞̦̰̭̰̻͚͚̔ͅa̶̦̳͖͔̟͙̖͖͂ḭ̴̹͙͙̻͙̏̓̋̀̎͆͋̕̕͜r̴̳̞̘͖̙̈̈̾͝ translates to something in English. That will give you an answer about who it is. 

But also, again, I CANNOT BELIEVE I AM POSTING SOME WRITING. FOR ONCE, I AM USING WATTPAD FOR WRITING A STORY AGHHHHHHH- 

I have a strong dislike for my writing, even though I read through it a couple of times;-;

I might do more of these, though, to work on my writing.

Before I go I will give you two memes in my camera roll.

Welp, that's all.

Hope you enjoyed it and see you all whenever! 

Goodbye!
