we share a warriors bond (we were both in the same fandom at the same time and now neither of us are in that fandom anymore but we’re still beloved mutuals)

I will always prefer Wizards Is A Job over Wizards Is A Species as a trope.

Wizarding should be something you work towards. Being a wizard is like being an architect, or a painter, or a chemist. It’s something that makes your relatives ask “So are you still doing that or do you have an actual job now”

And please tell me why you'd want your chosen studio to take over in the tags!! :] Orrr why you don't trust any of them >:]

This is a recreation of The Meeting on the Turret Stairs (1864) by Frederic William Burton. Credit to the wonderful @soulhollow for giving me the brilliant idea and commissioning this 💚

The costume design for Alfred

They said they wanted to see Alfred in purple/gold tones, so I self-indulgently designed a costume for Alfred (though again not necessarily trying to be historical accurate)

-

Details for archaeology nerds (So it happens again I guess)

1. The tablet-woven bend

Design is loosely taken from an actual archaeological find from the Taplow Barrow in Buckinghamsire, dating to the early 7th century. The original piece really had the gold threads on it by the way. You can see the modern reconstruction here.

2. Pattern on the tunic

Taken from a part of an arcade illustration in the Royal Bible (Royal 1. E. vi, 4r.) c. 1000-1025 in British Library, London. Added some vine patterns that are quite common to see in insular art for reasons.

3. Pattern on the shawl

Taken from a part of the stole and the maniple in St. Cuthbert’s coffin, dated to early 10th century, now in Durham Cathedral Museum.

4. Embroidery on Alfred’s sleeves

The pattern is from an illustration in the manuscript of Bede’s Life of St Cuthbert (MS 183, f. 1v) c. 937 in Parker Library, Cambridge, which depicts King Æthelstan showing the book to St Cuthbert himself.

The process

Such a pleasure to work on this one! Thank you again for giving me the chance✨

I just finished avowed

Another great entry by Obsidian! I love the lore and plot- how they make you feel that there is no choice that leaves you with a clear conscience, and yet choose is what the envoy must do. The theme of colonisation and tradition Vs change are also very well done.

I am also pleasantly surprised that the choice of killing Sapadal or not is not tied with whether the living lands will be free. My envoy chose to kill her, but she was able to unite the lands against the empire in the end.

(The reason for her action is that she couldn't trust Sapadal to not make her mistakes again. No matter how remorseful she seemed, she was still a god that held absolute power over people in her domain, and that power imbalance alone made the entire situation dangerous. The envoy was but a mayfly compared to her existence; what would Sapadal do after the envoy was dead? Could they still learn and listen to the kith under her influence? What if they make another mistake?

Like Iovara from poe1&2, I too believe that nothing should hold such power over kith. It's simply too easy to veer into an abusive situation with no way out. Besides, the Ekidan didn't have a god at the first place, and they were doing fine.)

I am so fucking tired of people looking at a fantasy world and saying "But in medieval Europe...". Fuck you. This game has Polynesian shark-people with firearms and globe-trotting Inuit dwarves. Reincarnation is a verifiable fact, and someone blew up one of their several deities last week. This isn't Europe.
