Songs from the Path, by Rion Sanura:

It’s the last Bandcamp Friday, when all proceeds go to the artists!
You may have noticed that I jumped headlong into the Witcher fandom, andbomberqueen17‘s magnificent Meet Death Sitting series, particularly the 5th chapter of The Ancient Sea, inspired a tudor-style dirty lutesong the story mentioned in passing: Love, Stay Thy Hand.
Then, I felt like just writing the big ol’ plot outline of three of the threads (you can probably guess which three) of the multi-book-and-game story, so I made a jaunty little tune out of that: The Lilac, the Wolf, and the Dandelion.
This evening I felt the need for a slightly disturbing ceremonial country round dance with drone and the occasional Balkan-style ornament, and I knew Bandcamp Friday was coming, and I knew I had two other Witcher-inspired songs I could put it with, so I unearthed some alchemical herb names from my memory of potions and wrapped them in mysterious advice for use: Alchemy Dance.
Like my other Bandcamp Friday releases, this little fandom-soaked EP is a fundraiser, this time for the ACLU. Here are just a few of important things they’re currently working for:
racial justice
voting rights
preventing mass evictions
disability rights
immigrants’ rights (and more immigrants’ rights)
trans rights
So I hope these weird little fandom-blooming, Witcher-adjacent songs tickle you enough to consider spending $3 on some civil liberties. I like to think Geralt and Jaskier would both approve. And so would Yennefer.
AH look at this!!!
I have had Love, Stay Thy Hand stuck in my head for like, however long it’s been since you first sent it to me, and I have a handful of tabs open somewhere that I was going to make a post about how amazing it is but never did because what is linear time. It is amazing. I need the rest of this pronto.
