the sun does not bow. she rises.

For a sorcerer, the world of everday life is not real, or out there, as we believe it is. For a sorcerer, reality, or the world we all know, is only a description.

⸻ carlos castaneda ( journey to ixtlan, 1972 )

Born on a solar eclipse as the promising heir and only son amongst six sisters of the SOLAR COVEN, Zeev was known to be loyal, diligent and destined to become the leader of the coven. With an earnest heart and a hunger for knowledge, he immersed himself in the arcane arts from an early age like his ancestors. His loyalty to his family was unwavering. Yet, as fate would have it, the path he tread upon was not one of light alone. Temptation beckoned from the shadows, whispering seductive secrets of forbidden power and untold potential. In a moment of weakness, driven by desperation and a desire to protect his family, he delved into the forbidden depths of dark magic. The repercussions were swift and merciless. Betrayal seeped into his very core as he was cast out from the coven, branded a pariah among his own kind. The pain of rejection stung deeply, leaving Zeev with a hole for which there was no cure. In his secluded home shrouded in illusion, Zeev spends most of his time honing his knowledge of black magic to gain the ability to rewrite his destiny and ensure that his absence was the Coven's greatest mistake.The rumour of the witch in the woods, capable of fulfilling the wishes of all who find themselves hopeless, roams the forest like a whisper in the canopies.

Zeev is generally a good person. Raised in a close-knit family, he learned positive values such as compassion, helpfulness and loyalty. In most cases, he is in touch with his emotions and has no trouble expressing or verbalising them. Those seeking advice will receive it.However, he finds it difficult to expect good intentions in others—especially humans—though he always tries to recognise them. This stems from the fact that his natural presence is inviting to others, but deeper intentions are rarely expected. While Zeev is confident in his outward appearance and, to some degree, proud of it, he longs for deeper connections and mutual understanding. His desire for harmony and unity comes from his connection to nature and the values his family instilled in him.After his exile, Zeev suffers from the fear of rejection and the pain that these connections can cause. He had been loved before, yet he had been punished regardless.His enthusiasm and thirst for knowledge make him open to new experiences and adventurous. Those who manage to reach Zeev's heart and see beyond his attractive face will find a witch willing to do anything for his friends—even if it means reopening old wounds.

repetition of the name wren, wren, wren, wren, wren, wren, wren, I didn't save you, little light, sister, sister, i'm sorry.But what else is there to do? I need to save my family. If no one else is willing to do it. It is our birthright to remain. How are we supposed to survive if we are just shushed away like the sin their dull belief makes us seem? We are natural, we are necessary, we belong.repetition of the name wren. Please mother forgive me. I just wanted to save us.

Since using black magic, Zeev suffers from something akin to narcolepsy, a consequence of maintaining balance, even when redirecting the damage. Moreover, the use of black magic is comparable to a drug, which has made him dependent on it. Which will, if not stopped, lead to his untimely death. The fulfilment of his greatest wish is also his downfall.His mother’s decision was not only due to her resenting the dark arts, but because its consequences were far-reaching, thus unforgivable. While Zeev's use of magic saved them, she lost her youngest daughter, and Zeev, in turn, lost the sister he loved the most. Burdened by the guilt of this loss, which he hadn’t forseen, Zeev lives in isolation and loneliness, which neither helps him nor improves his condition.

a light that never goes out.

In a picturesque and quiet british town called sundawn, a sisterhood of witches thrived, bound together by their reverence for the sun and their mastery of green magic. For centuries, these women have nurtured their craft in harmony with earth and its wonders. Founded in the era of the 18th century, their coven flourished in secrecy, shielded from the judgmental eyes of ordinary humans who harbored fear and mistrust towards their practices. Uniquely blessed, or cursed, they bore only daughters into their ranks, a lineage steeped in the mystique of feminine power and resilience. But as the decades passed and the world outside their sanctuary grew ever more hostile, the shadows of prejudice and persecution loomed large. In the waning days of the 1920s, a wave of bigotry and hatred swept through the lands, driving the coven from their homes and into the depths of the woods, where they sought refuge amidst the ancient trees. For generations, they lived in peaceful seclusion, tending to the needs of the natural world and nurturing the next generation of witches with care and severity. the coven gathers a diverse array of approximately one hundred witches, each bringing their own unique gifts and talents to the fold. From the seasoned elders filled with the lore of the past to the young descendants eager to explore the mysteries of the craft. The witches live and learn as one, their days filled with honoring rituals and the gentle hum of arcane energy. Together, they weave spells of healing and protection, tend to the needs of the forest, and honor the ancient traditions passed down through the ages.

Born and raised inside the Sundawn Woods, in reverence to the earth and living beings of his home, Zeev is following the teachings of his Mother, Londra, and leads his family alongside her. His sisters, loved and taken care of, thrive in the sun as they grow as a union. The townsfolk however isn't fond of the "cultists" living close their grounds, claiming evil-doing. besides seeking solutions and protecting his family of a looming doom, something seems to echo off the luscious canopies of his home. A whispering of potential slipping out of his grasp.

The narrow-minded town of Sundawn serves as a prison and home for Zeev alike. unable to leave his family behind but also incapable of returning, Zeev offers his help to the distressed, wandering through the woods in hopes to see the rumours being true. what they may find isn't only the charming and dashingly handsome Scotsman, but also someone who doesn't shy away from the usage of forbidden knowledge to ensure their wishes to come to fruition. He, however, suffers tremendously in the eye of his own dispair.

After moving to the States and thanks to his very inviting and alluring presence, it didn't take long for him to be spotted by a Model Scout. Zeev, knowing fairly well he's got what it takes to charm any camera and model agency, took up the offer and his career started immediately. Skyrocketing within months, pushing him amongst the top of the game with bagged names like Gucci, Prada, Hermés, Louis Vuitton or Versace. But a runway ain’t just a straight line, as the fashion industry is as beautiful as it is merciless. It's easy to lose yourself in the attention, he always had thought to enjoy.

Cirque du Sol Mysterium is a patchwork of people with undeniable talents, put onto display at the travelling Circus, one that is praised as it is frowned upon. Some deem them tricksters, others bath in excitement to just have a glance at their wonders. Supposedly necromancer, the strongest of the strongest, mentalists and ghost whisperer, veiled in colourful linen and silk, glistening in wealth they don't inherent and fame that only reaches till the borders of the jolly grounds, all to uphold the impression the entertainment of others is their greatest of treasure. But for Zeev, the young man who radiates like the sun, whose hands promise lights and fire, whose smile charms beyond the first row, nudges the want for more. Something genuine. A life led to his terms in a world that fears difference when it's uncaged.

𝖆 𝖘𝖙𝖚𝖉𝖞 𝖎𝖓 : found family, being the attraction, performance instead of living, the fear of freedom, hiding inside a cage, find yourself in a society that has no space for you, pretty privilege, a pawn in a puppeteers game

Set in the year 1895, in the fictional town of Wickerdale, everyone goes about their business. At the centre of all lies the office of Zeev and Isaiah Spindle, who have set themselves the task of uncovering mysteries that no one else can spare the attention for. Zeev, a naturalist who knows how to interpret his teachings, and Isaiah, well on the way to realising his dreams—both cherish the desire to bring about a resonating change, and to do so they embark on paths whose darkness they only overcome through shining in each other's light. They publish their discoveries and observations in monthly issues of “Wickerdale's Phantasmagoria” and leave it to their loyal readers to judge their veracity. | can be written as a trio upon request, but is not required or promised.

Born as a sorcerer under a black sun, he harnesses his innate power, strengthened by sunlight. Zeev harbours an insatiable urge to practice magic and finds great joy in doing so. He follows his own moral compass and constantly tries to do what is best for himself and his family, but this does not always result in good for everyone else. Although his mother shares the teachings of the sun, the sorcerer is often drawn to other realms of arcane wisdom. In the hope of indulging in his thirst for knowledge, he opens paths that should have remained sealed to him. He is never seen without his sun amulet, nor far from the woodlands where he feels most at home.

“Of all the things I’ve lost already,” the witcher mumbled at some point, intertwining their hands with loving gentleness. “I can’t bear ever losing you.” An intimate vulnerability, easy to share with him and easier to overcome as he knew Isaiah would always wrap him in care and understanding. (...) Affirmation didn’t need grand words, more often than not Zeev found it in the way he was held, in how their foreheads pressed against one another and how their hands lingered on reachable skin, their touches speaking languages that surpassed words. Their love was pure. A good one, a steady one, a trusting one. A natural come together that had left an impact and never had let him go ever since. Seeking one another and revolving around, drawn to the same energies and inspired by the cosmic force of attraction. Like double stars. Like particles.
