Is 'We Met In The Mist' Based On A True Story?

For me, the mature material in 'A Court of Mist and Fury' shows up mainly once Feyre leaves the immediate aftermath of the trials and starts her life in the Night Court. The romantic and explicitly sexual scenes are woven through the middle and latter parts of the book rather than front-loading the story; they're integral to character development and the relationship that forms, so you’ll notice them appearing in multiple chapters rather than a single single spot. Beyond the bedroom scenes themselves, the book contains other mature content worth flagging: descriptions of trauma, PTSD triggers, references to physical and emotional abuse, and violent episodes tied to the plot. Those elements are scattered through the narrative and sometimes accompany the intimate scenes, giving them emotional weight but also making a few passages intense or upsetting depending on what you’re sensitive to. If you’re choosing for a younger reader or want to skip explicit sections, skim carefully after the point where Feyre moves to Velaris and begins spending more time with Rhysand—the tone shifts and the book becomes more adult in both sexual content and psychological themes. Personally, I found those scenes raw and necessary for the story’s arc, but I get why some readers prefer to step around them.

Creeping white mist is like a soft curtain that I love watching get tugged across a scene — it muffles reality and invites the imagination to fill in the gaps. I think it does a few things at once: it simplifies visuals so your brain stops trusting what it sees, it refracts light to give lamps and moonbeams a halo that feels uncanny, and it blurs depth so figures can appear closer or farther than they are. In 'The Others' and some foggy shots in 'The Witch' that subtle ambiguity makes every silhouette a question mark. That uncertainty tightens my chest in the best way. Beyond cinematography, mist also affects sound and movement. Footsteps get swallowed, breath becomes visible, and the world seems slower and more personal. To me, that slow reveal is the magic — a little reveal, then a freeze, then another tiny reveal — and it always leaves me with a satisfying little shiver.

Fog and mist on film sets feel magical, and I love how precise the whole process can be. Practically, most crews mix a few tools: hazers to give the light something to bite on, fog machines for denser pockets, and sometimes a chilled ground effect for low-lying mist. The hazer creates a very fine, even particle field that cameras pick up as soft atmosphere without obliterating faces, while fog machines pump thicker vapor that you can sculpt into shafts and layers. Controlling airflow is everything. We use fans, ducts, and sometimes tents to shape where the mist goes; a little breeze can turn a dreamy scene into a mess in seconds. Lighting decisions—backlight, sidelights, and colored gels—do half the visual work by turning invisible particles into visible rays. Safety and comfort matter too: crews monitor density so actors can breathe, and they avoid overusing glycol-heavy fluids in tight spaces. I always find it satisfying when practical mist, smart lighting, and a couple of well-placed fans make a scene feel alive and cinematic.

I get a little giddy thinking about gear shopping, so here's the long version: for white mist and low-lying fog machines filmmakers have a ton of options. First stop for me is always specialty pro-theatre and stage suppliers — brands like Antari, Chauvet, Le Maitre, and Rosco make reliable units and dedicated low-fog systems. Those vendors sell machines tailored for film: quieter pumps, DMX control, and fluids optimized for camera work. Next, I look at large photo/video retailers like B&H or Adorama, which stock pro and prosumer units and often include specs, customer reviews, and bundle deals for fluids and hoses. If budget is tight, I also check used-equipment sources — eBay, local marketplace listings, and rental houses clearing old kit. Rentals are great if you only need the effect for a day or two and let you test different machines on set. Personally I always match the machine to the shot: hazers and foggers for soft ambiance, low-fog chilled units or glycol-based low-lying systems for that thick white ground mist. Safety matters too — ventilation, correct fluid, and checking for glycol vs. water-based compatibility with actors' makeup and lenses. I usually finish purchases after testing a rental and reading threads from other filmmakers, and I end up happier that way.

Quick heads-up: mist runes don't exist in 'Old School RuneScape', so there aren't any OSRS quests that unlock crafting for them. If you're trying to craft runes in OSRS the basic thing you need is the 'Rune Mysteries' quest, because that opens up the Runecrafting skill. After that you use rune essence or pure essence at the various altars (or the ZMI altar for faster XP) and meet the level requirements for each rune. Mist, mud, smoke and dust are part of later updates to 'RuneScape' (the modern version) and were not carried over into the nostalgic OSRS ruleset. I always tell newer players to lean on classic runes — air, water, earth, fire — and get comfortable with altars and pouches first; it saves a lot of headache. Feels weird that some cool elemental runes are missing, but it keeps OSRS close to its old-school vibe.

If you're asking about Old School RuneScape specifically, the short reality is: there is no mist rune in OSRS. I had the same confusion a while back because the modern RuneScape (the updated RS3) has combination element runes like mist, dust, smoke and steam, but OSRS sticks with the classic air/water/earth/fire runes. So in OSRS there’s nothing called a mist rune to try to 'stack' with other elemental runes. For clarity, in RS3 the mist rune is a combination rune that can substitute for either an air or a water rune when casting — but it only counts as one component, not both at once. That means even in RS3 you don't get a multiplicative stacking effect; a mist will fill one required rune slot (air or water) but won't double-dip to satisfy two different requirements on the same cast. Personally, I find that design neat because it simplifies bookkeeping without breaking balance, but for OSRS players the takeaway is simple: use the vanilla elemental runes and don't worry about mist stacking here.

Okay, this is one of those little fandom rabbit holes I love diving into: for the 2007 film 'The Mist' directed by Frank Darabont, yes — there is an alternate ending, and it’s been released as a special feature on home media. I remember watching the theatrical cut at a friend’s house and then switching to the alternate ending later on the Blu-ray; it’s wild how much the tone changes. The theatrical ending is famously bleak, but the alternate one (and some extended/behind-the-scenes bits) softens things and gives you a different emotional payoff. Darabont has talked about both versions in interviews and commentaries, and those commentary tracks and featurettes are the best place to hear why certain choices were made. When people ask about the Spike/TV miniseries 'The Mist', the situation feels more scattered. The show didn’t get as many collectible releases or big special-feature packages, so there aren’t stacks of officially released deleted scenes like you’d expect for a big, long-running franchise. You can sometimes find short clips, promos, or actor-posted outtakes on social channels, but complete, official deleted scenes are rare. If you care about seeing unseen material, I’d check physical Blu-ray/DVD extras for the film first, then hunt interviews, director commentaries, and the cast’s social pages for the series. Fan forums and script archives can also point to scrapped plot beats or scene descriptions if you want the deeper lore vibes.

Anakin was around 9 years old when he first met Padmé in 'The Phantom Menace'. It was a pretty intense moment for him, even as a kid, seeing someone so regal and confident. That early meeting laid the foundation for their complex relationship later on.
