Back when I was young, I showed an aptitude for magic beyond my years. I was trained under some of the masters, my skills grew by leaps and bounds, I was considered a prodigy in the field. Unfortunately, because of the loins I was born with, my potential was severely snuffed. I was expected to give birth to a generation of powerful enchanters, not be one myself. Despite my progress and strength, both my parents agreed it would be best for me to ‘settle down’ and get married to an ‘eligi...

Trauma can cause many changes to a person, most of them can be explained by psychology, and possibly healed with therapy. But after my father passed away, the change that occurred inside me wasn’t one that could be explained. It wasn’t something anyone took seriously, so I learned to ignore it and locked it away.
I didn’t fully understand this until I met my husband. He was performing a s...

Planning for the future and trying to figure out which characters, or even sayings or logos, ya’ll would want to see made into stickers and prints. It’s getting harder for me to decide when commissioning amazing artists and I’d like to be prepared when I do.
Please comment with your favorite characters or even logo ideas of monster sayings that could be made into lovely works of art. Thank you all so much! I hope you’re all staying safe and happy.

I don’t think everyone knows this, so I just wanted to put this out there. I am taking commissions, but there is a wait. Right now I am taking reservations for February and March for anyone who is interested! If you are please look at my commission FAQ sheet or contact me with questions at momoladycomms@gmail.com.

The aquarium is just outside of town, so it’s not busy during the festival. In fact, a lot of local would visit it just to get out of the hustle and bustle the festival brought in. You had always liked this aquarium growing up, you had even had a part time job there during the summers home from school. It was part conservatory as well, helping to rehabilitate and take care of certain marine life.
You were sitting outside waiting on Fionn to get the tickets, rattling around your brain ...

Sonja’s truck pulls up into the driveway, and your excitement spikes again. All day you’ve been cleaning, organizing, doing whatever you can to make the house look nice. The bed is made - not that it’ll matter - and you even got a new comforter. It was a silly purchase, but it made sense to you.
You step outside as Sonja walks up the path with an overnight bag in one hand and a grocery ba...

Every winter, there’s a tradition in your home town where the people will gather around the frigid beach, strip off as much clothes as they are comfortable with, and plunge themselves into the nearly frozen waters. This isn’t anything new or beyond the stretch of the imagination, this happens everywhere, only difference is that, for your town, the Selkies join in.
It all dates back centuries ago when it was a sort of mating ritual, when the men would try and impress the female...

It all starts at the beginning of August - well, it begins way before that, actually. Planning for the pumpkin patch as well as the corn maze takes nearly all year to get right. From the end of Halloween until the following September, planning and preparing is vital.
Your family had been pumpkin royalty in your town since your great-grandfather. It was a tradition passed down to you, as well as...

Hearthway Hollow is a threat, or at least that is how my boss is treating it. Our pack is smaller, but it is one of the oldest in the country. My boss, Aubin, takes offense to Hearthway Hollow and its pack of docile, fat, dogs. How this is a threat, I’m not certain.
Most of my life has been spent with this pack, and we’ve been all over this country. We’ve seen lots of packs trying to adopt this way of life that Hearthway Hollow has. Sure, it seems nice at first. Everyone is so com...

Having left Hearthway Hollow after high school, I wasn’t sure what coming back would be like. Sure, I come home often for holidays, but moving back and visiting are two different things. Things change, though, and after one too many changes for me, I decide going back home would be the best bet.
My family owns an antique store in town, and recently it’s expanded to the point where it’s in...

I was gonna update at the start of the new year, but I couldn't wait for obvious reasons!
First of all, the artwork is done by none other than ChopshopPar! Send her lots of love for the new artwork, she works hard.
Second, the Tentacle tier and the Rakshasa tier have been renamed Mothman and Robot respectively.
I hope you enjoy the new art! Stay safe and have a good day!

The stone Ifrits and the Goblins had a very close relationship. For years they had worked together under horrible conditions, and now in war, they had aligned their kingdoms to become one of the most impassible forces on the Eastern continent. Your home had been decimated by such war, and now, you were leading what remained of your town to the safety of this kingdom.
The high rock walls that now surrounded it were peppered by various stone Ifrit and Goblin guards. They watched from on h...

In the last few months, fed up with your job and needing a break, you’ve started offering computer services from your home. You got to do a pretty big job for a local accounting firm, so you had a few extra bucks to get some necessary things for your new home office.
It’s lucky you and a friend come across an estate sale one afternoon. Whoever owned the place was never there and has recentl...

I walked on, just as I had before. I knew I had to go further and further through the field, until my legs gave out, until my body ached. As it grew dark, I felt an end coming. The path would open and I would find somewhere safe, either at the house or with the god again.
My raven appeared overhead, guiding me until the path went into the mouth of a hole. The hole descended, and in the shadows ...

For a while now, you have made your living working as a housekeeper. You’ve worked for a few people as a live-in maid, recently you have taken up a job as a barmaid. The last family you worked for had decided to move and they did not take you with them. It felt like a slap in the face considering all you had done for this family, and the abandonment still hurt quite a bit.
On a particularly slow evening, you and one of the other barmaids were enjoying a hot cider. There weren’...

The ground was frozen, crunching as I walked over it. Every so often I felt as though something was watching me. I would turn and look around, only to find an endless sea of tall grass behind me. As I ventured deeper, the field turned from grass to corn. High stalks rose further above my head. Soon it became so thick, I could barely see the sky above me, only the purple wisps at the cornstalks’ pea...

I loved my father very much. For the longest time, it had always just been the two of us. I never knew my mother, all my father ever said was that she had run away. It didn’t matter to me, as long as I had him, I was happy. I didn’t need a mom at all, he was everything.
There were times when I was told things about myself. My father would tell me I had nightmares and I would sleepwalk, so he would lock my door for me at night. That way, I wouldn’t get hurt. I just had to tell myse...

Some days people are there and some days they aren’t. I learned this before I could even read, before I knew anything else of the world. I knew people had to go away and never come back. They walked into the field because that was where they belonged.
I remember the day my father walked in. My mother and I stood a short distance away, and I was terrified because of how tall the grass seemed. ...

The pages of the diary are written as if Mrs. Atherton knows she is going to be found. She writes about things that should have been common knowledge to a household. It is almost as if she writes out of fear, to cover her tracks and keep something hidden, perhaps protected. In the few pages that Marni has given me, she reveals a world of torment upon herself, one that could appear to be in her head, but just as easily be a twisted web around her.
The first few pages, which had been sent...

When your grandfather passed away, you made sure to collect the old cigar box that had originally inspired Gentleman Jack. You had often gone back to it, hiding things inside for later. Everything was still intact - the pressed flower from the crown Jack made you, the skipping stone you refused to toss across the pond, the feather you found on a particularly bad day. You took it home, along with some...
