The Conquerors

[bayofwolves]

rereading spirit animals and realizing that the devourer wars are so much more nuanced than i used to think

like, feliandor was definitely wrong for starting the first one in order to colonize land for his nation. but when it was over, the greencloaks -- the supposed good guys -- carried out a genocide on the people of stetriol.

and in the second one, shane had every right to feel how he felt. the greencloaks had abandoned his people to centuries of torment and i agree with him for fighting back. but once again, the conquerors' methods were inexcusable. the atrocities they committed were just as horrible as their enemies'.

but of course, even though both sides had their faults, the greencloaks were never held accountable for what they did to stetriol. they were persecuted for their involvement in the war with the wyrm, yes, but what about before that? when they wiped out a nation and continued to hide what they'd done? when they used the nectar to dominate the world, withholding its lifesaving power from anyone they deemed not worthy?

the greencloaks allowed stetriol to be forgotten, and forgotten it still seems to be.

When in doubt, when a little low, when a little anxious, I look for the open sky, a little gaze longer into the outer sky and I'm assured - no, I'm not alone in this, though it may appear to be. I've got an entire army by my side - hidden, invisible - yet, the battalion is there, always, unseen forces in the universe filling up the heavens and the earth, aiding my cause without I even realize. I stare a little longer up in the sky and I regain & restore & revive my lost faith. All it takes is that one little divine smile right into our worn out faces and souls - and here we are rejuvenated, pumped up, like never before, ready to take over the world. Who's here to march out, let's conquer every known and unknown world!

I will be taking your city and your body, beloved emperor.

(Mehmed the Conqueror x Constantine XI Palaiologos in the Hagia Sophia. Don’t come at me, this is what happened according to Greek historians 🌚)

It will be the anniversary of the Fall of Constantinople soon, and I hope to draw something for that too.
