"A Heart hardened by War,
Crushed under waves of Guilt
and Mountains of Sorrow,
Yet Always so Tender
And so quickly rebuilt,
As its essence is her."
Mini impromptu verse to accompany these, boy do I have things to say about them šš ( seriously, who allowed me to hold a pen? I broke my own heart)
And closeups because yes
Two Halves and One Heart ā¤ļø
I can't stop drawing them and I have so much to say about them š also how much it ties into the series I am working on and all the lore . . . o<= the second picture is a bonus, it would've been angsty as usual but I thought, let's be merciful and give them so happiness first šā¹ļø
Moments Before the Shattering
found this sound INCREDIBLY fitting, whether regarding Resh, or the Elders concerned by his words . . . i do imagine that Resh must've known about the Elders' inability to get along, and constant disagreements, especially regarding darkstone. when they come to confront him and stop him from attempting to use the eternal Light Beam to become god, it is already too late, and he doesn't hold back from mocking them about their slow reaction, let alone their stupidity in handling their powers. i believe it is also a point where Resh has come to accept the Darkness within him, as part of his "godly" power, which he, due to his corruption, doesn't really see as something bad. at least, not anymore.
that being said, amazing voice work by @doofguyva on tiktok !!!
The Shadow of Darkness
this video elaborates more on how I picture that after the King becomes corrupted, the darkness gains "sentience", and it grows the more Resh "listens" to it. In a sense, Resh's body is like that of a puppet, and Alef is imprisoned somewhere inside, his voice and light getting snuffed out more and more as Resh falls into Darkness. I believe that around the time of the Shattering, Resh (the body) and the Shadow become one; an all consuming Darkness which has a consciousness of its own. and the more it is fed, the more it grows. so basically, as the Elders attempt to seal him, he cannot be defeated due to his power. so the Darkness is sealed within the mountain of Eden, thus rendering it "alive" to a certain extent. it doesn't have a human body to manifest through anymore, so the rage is perpetual through the storm of Eden.
sound belongs to the very talented @doofguyva on TikTok!!
War and Heartbreak
"Has the Lord sent you to War to keep you
Away from me?
Has the warmth of my love filled the Sun
With Jealousy?
What wrong have I done by putting my
Heart into your hands?
I promise, I never would let you carry
the weight of my guilt.
But you are acquainted with the rain
that pours out of my eyes,
and all of the words that remain
unspoken.
The Sun is too cruel to be merciful,
and my skies shall remain darkened.
If only I could rid myself of the knowledge,
that you will be torn apart, reduced to a shell.
My heart is made of glass,
Hidden within a cold forest,
Yet every single shard reflects
None but your face.
I long for you to come back,
But War won't leave you unchanged.
You promise you will be alright,
that it should, in no way, add to my guilt,
but day by day, my heart turns to stone,
and tears flood my rivers."
Impromptu verses to accompany the images š©· I love them so much šš©·
i think being part of their symphony was teth's last straw
bless the reshcord, best decision of my life (I have lost all braincells)
Cover them up, slut
I can feel my brain cells leaving me every second (every second Iām in the reshcord)
