Extremely Important Update: in April 2023 the World Bird Sanctuary had an orphaned eagle chick in need of care, so they decided to see if Murphy could live up to his parental ambitions.

He successfully raised the chick, which is now thriving with the other juvenile eaglets!

Congrats Murphy, you made it happen through sheer determination.

The Evermore Grimoire: Potions

Nightlock is a potion that can lock anyone within their own worst nightmare. Due to its harmful nature and the deadly consequences it bestows on anyone who ingests it, makes it a forbidden potion within the magical world. No one knows the ingredients to make Nightlock but some believed it included slaughtering magical creatures for certain magical elements and body parts which was also a forbidden witchcraft practice. The reason for this lies with a family of witches who used Nightlock on their own kind for decades in order to expel those who were not of pureblood status. They perfected the potion so much that no antidote or spell could break the potency of Nightlock. Thus leaving their victims stuck within their own mind suffering their worst nightmares over and over until it eventually killed them. Eventually the family's heinous crimes caught up with them when they kidnapped a powerful witch with the power of telepathy who was able to unlock herself from the poison of the potion. The family were stripped of their magic and records of their existence were destroyed. It's believed that a council of elder witches then forced them to ingest Nightlock reliving every nightmare of their victims as punishment until it killed them.

The full Dragon series!! Each creature from a different biome… I had a lot of fun coming up with the different types of dragons and imagining what it would be like for these warriors to face each one. The fire dragon being particularly destructive. The night dragon near impossible to see coming in the dark. The ice dragons the size of mountains. The river dragon’s keen eyes. The sand dragon’s deadly poison. The mist dragons forcing the battle into the sky. The water dragon hiding in the deep. The garden dragon is chill though. Good lad.
