Shadowhunters-City of bones.♥

Pubblicato da Unknown alle 02:55 0 commenti


The Mortal Instruments is a series of six fantasy novels, written by Cassandra Clare.
The first novel is called "City of bones" and the story takes place in an urban and contemporary New York City.

Plot

A teenager, Clary Fray, begins seeing a strange symbol, worrying her mother, Jocelyn Fray, and her mother's friend, Luke Garroway.
Later, at a nightclub with her friend Simon, Clary is the only person who sees Jace Wayland killing a man.
Meanwhile, Jocelyn is abducted by two men, but she is able to call Clary and warn her about someone named Valentine and she drinks a potion putting her in a comatose state.
Returning home, Clary is attacked by a demon, but Jace appears and kills it.
Jocelyn, like Jace, was also a Shadowhunter, a warrior that slays demons.

Madame Dorothea, the Fray's neighbor and a witch, deduces that the two men seek the Mortal Cup, one of the tree Mortal Instruments given to the first Shadowhunter by the Angel Raziel.

Clary, Jace and Simone go to the Institute, the Shadowhunter's hideout, where they meet other two Shadowhunters:Alec and Isabelle Lightwood and their leader, Hodge Starkweather.
He reveals that Valentine seek the Mortal Cup to control all Shadowhunters and demons.
Hodge instructs Jace to take Clary to the City of Bones so the Silent Brothers can probe Clary's mind for the Mortal Cup's location. The Brothers uncover a connection to Magnus Bane, the High Warlock of Brooklyn.
Bane says Jocelyn had him block the Shadowhunter world from Clary's mind. 

After that, Clary realizes  the Mortal Cup is hidden inside one of Madame Dorothea's tarot cards what were painted by her mother.
The group goes to Dorothea's apartment but she has been replaced by a demon sent to steal the Cup. Simon and Jace kill it and Clary retrieves the Mortal Cup.
Clary gives the Mortal Cup to Hodge who betrays them by summoning Valentine Morgenstern and giving him the cup. Valentine reveals he is Clary's father and wants her to join him.

Clary and Jace fight Valentine, who falsely claims both are his children. They refuse to join him and, following a battle, Clary pushes him through the portal after giving him a fake Mortal Cup. The portal is destroyed, and Jocelyn is rescued, but she remains in a coma at the hospital.

Then, Clary uses her new-found powers to repair the apartment and Jace appears, confessing he needs her. Realizing she belongs in the Shadowhunter world, she goes with him.

☺Saint George's Day☻

Pubblicato da Unknown alle 00:01 0 commenti
St.George's Day is on 23 April, in honour of Saint George, the patron saint of England.
His embleme is a red cross on a white background and it was adopted by Richard The Lion Heart and brought to England in the 12th century.



St.George was a brave Roman soldier who protested against the Roman's torture of Christians and died for his beliefs.
The popularity of St George in England stems from the time of the early Crusades when it is said that the Normans saw him in a vision and were victorious.
One of the best-known stories about Saint George is his fight with a dragon. But it is highly unlikely that he ever fought a dragon, and even more unlikely that he ever actually visited England. Despite this, St George is known throughout the world as the dragon-slaying patron saint of England.



A traditional custom on St.George's Day is to wear a red rose in one's lapel, though this is no longer widely practised.
Another custom is to fly or adorn the St.George's cross flag in some way:pubs in particular can be seen on 23 April festooned with garlands of St.George's crosses.
