The Omen of the Blind Hound:
Émile felt a chill. “A blind beagle revealed our tricolor,” he whispered. The Prodigiae’s voice echoed in the dim chamber: “An omen urging France to stand alone; alliances will falter.”
…TO BE CONTINUED IN THE COMMENTS…Explanation: As noted, the ancient Romans were very fond of portents, good and bad, whose form could take essentially anything mildly unusual. From how many birds you saw, to tripping as you step off of a boat, to being met by an unexpected person upon returning from a trip. This, of course, is CLEARLY an omen! But… is the omen good or bad…?
Huh, now I know where Robert Jordan got it from for the Seanchan
Well it’s French, so clearly bad.
What’s the red and blue bit then?
(Sorry French folks, I love you. Except some of the ones in Paris. I only tolerate you. I seriously can’t eat bread so stop being dicks).
So bread causes pain?
👏👏
Nicely done
(Also yes. It sucks so much)
The face. Oh my God.
Would it be taken as a sign to invade France, not invade France, eat a French bread sub sandwich for lunch, or …?
All of that. Just to be safe.
Lemon beagle.
Awful Taste, But Great Execution
