The Dragon Age games have been and are many things to me – starting with it (Thedas) being my favourite fictional world. These stories and characters have made my re-think my opinions and have actually influenced my spiritual beliefs. They have made me laugh, cry, feel just about everything that’s possible to feel. They’ve been my escape, and my companionship back when I was too unwell to see real people.

I did not expect Dragon Age, however, to become the inspiration to start my own shop. But here we are. 🙂

A while ago I was gifted an empty little glass bottle, with which I ended up making a little lyrium* potion necklace for myself. I got some nice feedback on it, and thought “hey, if I like this and would pay for this sort of thing, other people might too”.

I really enjoy creating things and I enjoy geeking out, in particular with other people. 😀 And as such, I like creating things that appease my inner nerd. xD So, creating things for this shop is making me incredibly happy. 🙂

I am learning so much doing this—I have learnt so much about running a business, writing content, and prioritizing my time! And I have learnt many useful things and new skills when it comes to my actual craft work. It’s exciting!

I am going to continue to create new things, and explore new skills, and just enjoy the fruits of my labour– Regardless of how much money I end up making from this. 🙂 I believe that if I genuinely enjoy what I’m doing/creating, other people will too.

Thank you for reading, and I hope this gives you an idea of who I am and what I am about. 🙂

*In terms of game mechanics, lyrium is the Dragon Age equivalent of a generic mana potion.
