Ink & Lore is a series of stylistic LoRAs designed to evoke the visual spirit of old-world myth, memory, and legend through hybridized folk art traditions drawn from ancient cultures.

Forgotten Tales

Forgotten Tales (the first LoRA in the Ink & Lore series) evokes the visual language of lost Northern myths and ancient storytelling traditions. Drawing from Nordic woodcut prints, Anglo-Saxon manuscript art, and early medieval symbology, this model renders images with a bold, ritualistic aesthetic. Expect stark silhouettes, ornamental detailing, and compositions that feel unearthed from a bygone age — as if painted with ash and memory.

This LoRA excels at producing layered, textural images with centered figures, mythic posture, and weathered elegance. Great for generating scenes that look like they were etched into oak, woven into banners, or scrawled on the walls of long-forgotten halls.

Usage

To use the most recent version of the LoRA, use the following settings:

Trigger word: trained with dijldflklr, but it isn't always necessary.
Other tokens that work well: Anything works, though it seems to like it if you tell a story in your prompt.
Lora Strength: A strength between 0.8 and 1.2 is recommended. 1.0 seems perfect for most generations.
