Daughter of Ivory
Dec. 30th, 2018 07:51 pm(moved over from tumblr)
So one of those random ‘your fantasy book title’ generators popped up on facebook a few weeks ago, and like many humans, I took a glance but didn’t really intend to think hard about it, because it is what it is, right?
And most of those things have a list for your first name and a separate list for your last name, but this one… did not. And since ya girl’s got double initials, I ended up with ‘The Daughter of Ivory and Ivory’. And of course my brain ran away with it.

(and yes, that is one of our cows, that’s Derpy Horns)
Anyway, I haven’t written in a while, so I might start actually playing with this idea. I’m not sure what I’m going to do with it yet, so far I’m thinking two main characters who would each qualify for being a Daughter of Ivory (one the child of an ivory merchant, the other some kinda ivory golem), and … some sort of plot. I mean, something’s probably gotta happen at some point in the story, probably. General disillusionment with the status quo of some folks stockpiling large amounts of ivory from various creatures, and other folks being made from said stockpiles.
Just gotta figure out what.
