Ciri, the Lady of Time and Space✨🌌

This is the first look at Ciri from the second volume of the comic "Ciri: The Child of Destiny" as the Lady of Time and Space.🌌

I've revised Ciri's design and decided to keep her hair loose, as she admired how sorceresses, being free women, don't braid their hair or hide it under headdresses. I think she might well have chosen to do the same. ✨

Also, I didn't forget to give her the white streak on her right temple, which appeared after her battle with Vilgefortz and his gang. ⚔️

I've also revised the design of Ciri's sword, and now it will look like in the illustration below. 🗡️

This panel came across my dash and I had to go look it up again:

And oh man is there a lot to unpack with it.

First: that shift in POV from Ulquiorra to Ichigo via how Inoue is viewed.

Ulquiorra:

Ichigo:

For Ulquiorra she's the whole focus, a panel dominating the page and her expression and humanity are fully on display. She and her attention and thoughts are important and vital. For Ichigo she's a distant figure with indistinct features in a hesitant, needy posture, she's more of an object than a person.

Also like how Ulquiorra's panels are consistently between Ichigo and Inoue, and with Ulquiorra shown in the closer, more intimate position related to her.

They're talking about her, but Ichigos speaking as if she isn't there, eyes and attention wholly fixed on Ulquiorra. On the other hand, Ulquiorra looks at her even in Ichigo's POV - and you can tell that tiny, faceless image of her is Ichigo's POV because it's behind Ulquiorra's tailcoat.

Then of course, putting this page in context we have a flurry of Ichigo wordlessly fighting Ulquiorra bookended by these two pages:

Then they finally speak:

When Ulquiorra asks why Ichigo is stronger he suggests fighting Grimmjow, Inoue and protecting his other friends. Ichigo doesn't answer, but physically, the person at his back at that time where he's standing, the person in a position of being protected from Ulquiorra's blows is Rukia - the exact person in their last clash he tried to turn to leave for.

Even with Inoue right in front of him, even arguing why it's not up to Ulquiorra to decide if Ichigo's wasting his time trying to save her, Rukia is undeniably there simply because she's on Ichigo's mind and an equal or greater priority.

I think Ichigo is at bare minimum subconsciously, but most likely very consciously aware that Inoue is safe with Ulquiorra even if Hueco Mundo in general isn't safe. There's never any of the urgency to get to her or get her behind him or away from Ulquiorra like there is with Grimmjow and even moreso Nnoitora.

He knows Ulquiorra isn't going to hurt her, just stop him from taking her back to the human world.

Inoue knows it too. She's never afraid of him, only afraid for Ichigo. Ulquiorra is no danger to her.

The only one that probably doesn't know it is Ulquiorra, but he's in the middle of realizing his feelings and that the orders for her safety are an excuse and a safety blanket to deny the fact he not only doesn't have any inclination to harm her, but is unable to harm her or see her harmed.
