Mountain come to me

[sovay]

And today Tybalt Autolycus Taaffe, aged seven months and two days, previously thwarted in his quest for the last ginger lemongrass macaron, completed his successful ascent of Mount Refrigerator and was found gnawing on the container at the summit, with the macaron in question inside.

He was summarily removed from Mount Refrigerator, protesting loudly all the while. So was the macaron, although more quietly. A second ascent was later completed by the two-party team of Taaffe and Hestia Hermia Linsky-Noyes, by which time the macaron had been eaten by someone who was not a cat. Descent has not yet been completed without human interference assistance.

Further bulletins as chaos warrants.

And damned well, if she made it to 32 with honor.

Well, she must have lived into her daughter's adolescence if she was to have trained Kynnane as Kynanne trained her own daughter Adeia Eurydike. The dates I could find for her were all estimations—she married Philip in 359 or 358 BCE, either before or after his defeat of the Illyrian king Bardyllis to whom Audate is usually assumed (but not known) to have been closely related; sealing an alliance. It's similarly assumed she was dead by 337 because the dynastic name Eurydike was given to Philip's last wife Kleopatra in that year and Audate had been given the name herself on her marriage. So if you assume she was roughly Olympias' age, going by their close marriage dates, she could have died in her late thirties shortly before Philip's last wedding. Or it could have happened earlier, and I'll never find out, because this entire bracket of history is full of women men didn't see and therefore didn't write anything about.
