When you look at him, Y/n was just an average boy but mystically gave you a spark in your life. Apart from his parents and a certain person, nobody knew his past or his secret... Neither him... Forced to always move from town to town and from country to country in fear of someone... But he never knew why and from whom... And the answer was simple... His blood. His blood is different from others, fragile but unique and dangerous... _______________________ LGBTQ+ 18+ Scenes Language Violence

Egypt, Thebes 3rd Intermediate Period, late Dynasty 21 Gessoed and painted sycamore Cleveland Museum of Art This is one of the finest examples of painted wooden coffins made for the priests of Amen and their families at Thebes during Dynasty 21 and early 22. The pharaohs of this time were no longer buried in the Valley of the Kings, but instead built tombs in the Delta, far to the north, where they resided. Security was lax in the Theban necropolis. The coffins and funerary goods of the wealthy citizens of Thebes were placed in unmarked and undecorated family tombs cut into the cliffs on the west bank of the Nile. All the care and detail that in more prosperous times were devoted to the decoration of the tomb chapel were now lavished on the elaborately painted coffins. Every available surface is crowded with religious scenes, images of funerary gods and goddesses, protective spells, and magical symbols. The deceased appears mummiform. An elaborate floral collar entirely covers the upper body, exposing only the separately attached hands (now lost). A pair of red "mummy braces" are crossed over the chest, their point of intersection marked by a winged sun disk. The lower body is covered with tiny figures modeled in gesso against a yellow background, which gives the effect of gold inlaid with glass or semiprecious stone.
Due to a policy of the Japanese government, from November 2, 2021, we will not be able to ship international small packages to the U.S., Canada, etc. without EMS (2,400 yen in Japanese yen). How long this situation will last is yet to be determined. The shipping cost for most of the products are about 3000 yen, so it's very high. Also, the only way to send them to Australia is by sea. We hope that this situation will return to be usual soon. Thank you for your understanding. Thank you very much. This is a craft item using a technique called etching.
