#Lore24 Catchup

30.04 The Mouth of Litanu
Near the Islands of Lotan, tiny rocky islets south of Cnuic Ghlainne, a monstrous whirlpool is said to surface and disappear without warning. It comes and goes with no apparent pattern, no warning that it is due, and no care for who it ensnares in its currents. Many sailors believe the whirlpool to be the mouth of a hideous sea monster, Litany, opening and closing as she seeks to feed. They say that she is trapped beneath the Islands of Lotan; a...

...punishment from the Gods for attempting to overthrow them. Others say she is a former lover of Lernan-Bashmu, cast aside after her unfounded jealousy almost destroyed innocent lives, and chained to prevent her from bringing havoc to A’arde’s lands. Regardless, all sailors agree on this: steer clear of the Islands of Lotan. Be not tempted by the promise of treasure on those rocky shores. The mouth of Litanu is all that awaits you there; a hunger unending; a rage unstoppable. A calamity...

...without warning. Steer clear of the Islands of Lotan, sailor; lest ye meet your doom in the Mouth of Litanu.

#Lore24 Monthly Prompt Ideas

#Lore24 is a daily challenge I picked up on Mastodon that encourages participants to generate a piece of lore content every day, be this for their homebrew game world, for their novel world, or simply custom items chosen at random. There are no rules for how your #Lore24 entries should be created, what order, or how much you should write. That sort of thing is entirely up to you! For me, I like to have themes to work by, so I decided to create my own monthly themes.
