Wisdom Saga athena trying to be the mentor to telemachus that odysseus deserved... giving him positive affirmation instead of brushing him off ("you're a good kid" vs. "we'll see where it ends")... immediately claiming him as a friend instead of insisting that their relationship is strictly business... much to think (and sob) about.........

Poseidon calling Odysseus and his men a ‘pack of wolves’ (swimming with the sharks, now).

Telemachus being called ‘little wolf’ because he is his father’s son.

#I see you Jorge. I see what you’re doing.#it’s about Odysseus being viewed as a wolf #perhaps for his ferocity #his followers as his pack and son as a ‘little wolf’#wolf like him perhaps as ferocious but either with or without the strength to back it up #idk #epic the musical #epic the wisdom saga #the wisdom saga #telemachus #my post

(guy who has never played cotl) haha au time

#this started as a design exercise bc i couldnt get sphinx/devon rex narinder out of my head #but the whole time i was thinking man imagine if the lamb brings him in as a follower but nobody knows he was actually. you know #and the followers are like haha wow our leader channels the power and wisdom of the one who waits almost as if they were them #would that be cool or what. anyway heres narinder reassuming his pre-bishop form and everything his flesh remembers before godhood #ok now im gonna ramble abt design notes #the singe marks were inspired by fallen angels like how some ppl say they burned while falling from heaven. i wanted smth like that when #the lamb is resurrected by nari.. their outfit is inspired by papal cloaks while narinders is based on crusader armor #the lambs name 'bellwether' is also a term used for sheep that wear a bell and lead the flock and i thought that was cool #idk what the thuribles do yet but i do have smth in mind where theyre linked together. and ofc the lamb has a shepherds staff #very proud of nari's little devil tail!! and it was hard to see bc its so dark but he has wrinkles around his forehead to conceal his #third eye. even he isnt aware of it (for now)#idk where im going with this au i just have a bunch of ideas?? basically the lamb is keeping nari's identity a secret from him so he doesnt #go down that path of powerhungry destruction. smth like trying to lead him down a better path but feels guilty lying to do that #also theyre in love with each other and theyre stupid pining idiots abt it. mwah #cult of the lamb #cotl #cotl lamb #cotl narinder #the one who waits #cotl the one who waits #narilamb #art #au #myart #my art #character design #cotl au #false prophet! au

I know there's alot of things everyone is talking about from the new Echoes of Wisdom trailer, but my personal favorite so far is that Zelda can and does hide in pots

Like look at her! She's so tiny and adorable!

#legend of zelda #loz #zelda #echoes of wisdom #this definitely follows my theory that this is one of the games where they're just kids

Okay I think that one thing we're really not talking about is how Telemachus adds something to the end of each song, the exact moment we think it's over.

"If I fight those monsters, is it you I'll find? or "Tell me Athena why you came to my aid"

He's setting up for the next song, telling us that there's still more to it. In the Wisdom Saga, he figuratively acts as a reprise to Odysseus, through his relationship with Athena and the riffs Jay pointed out in We'll Be Fine.

That's why I think it's especially important that in We'll Be Fine, Athena is the one adding to the end of the song.

"You're a good kid."

Though Telemachus technically has the last line there too, it's not one that provokes action. Instead Athena adds a line, which in theory didn't need to be there. In all technicality, the song had ended. The next song, she takes action.

She's giving herself a reprise. A second chance.

#sirjoing #epic the musical #epic the wisdom saga #telemachus #athena #jorge rivera herrans #i have a lot of thoughts about this #the way telemachus is just constantly setting up for the next scene #the way he's *adding* so much to the narrative #i know im using the word reprise very loosely btw #also like #the way in the following songs athena is doing the same thing #she ends love in paradise #she ends god games #now its her who is telling us *there is more*#her who says *the story does not end here*#really important because odysseus is #infinitely stuck on calypso's island

I just can't stop thinking about Athena at the end of God Games. Really bringing me back to a lot of stories about child abuse, ngl.

Like, she was given instructions, she followed those instructions, and then Zeus took her doing what he told her to do like it was an insult and PUNISHED HER.

LITERALLY PUNISHED FOR DOING WHAT HE TOLD HER TO DO.

And in the main animatic in the live, she doesn't even really fight back. She just defends as she's repeatedly struck down by lightning over and over, her shield breaking, her armor shattering and she still dares to approach while she is literally ON THE GROUND AND BLOODY.

The goddess of war begging the king of the gods and god of oaths to keep his word

A girl pleading with her father to keep his promise.

#the silence that follows her pleas chilled me to the bone #Epic the Musical #the wisdom saga #athena epic #zeus epic #child abuse mention #epic the wisdom saga

This is sort of salty but one of my tumblr/social media pet peeves is when people assume the cause of a lack of engagement is anything and everything other than "people are not picking up what you're putting down." Like, yeah, there are people who like and don't reblog your fic or your long post, but sometimes it's because people liked your post to save it for later, read it and said "hmmmm I don't care for this" and then never cleared out their likes. I'm a big proponent of reblogging your own work that you're proud of but sometimes you have to admit that people are seeing it and saying "hard pass". And to be clear, I cannot judge with any objectivity if you are a misunderstood genius or a massive idiot, though I'll certainly have my own thoughts on it, but usually a post not getting notes isn't a conspiracy against you or other people's fear of being uncool or them not knowing how to use the website; sometimes people just didn't like what you said or even were merely totally apathetic to it. At the very least if you're incapable of humility and self reflection you should just assume you are a misunderstood genius and move on instead of sulking. If you are, in some cosmic truth, a massive idiot, this won't improve that situation, but you'll probably feel better and won't alienate people further by being both an idiot AND a sulker.

#whenever people get excessive or overwrought in volume or tone about reblogs not likes #i block them if they're not someone i follow already because i find this irritating. now you'll get even fewer.#like. sure sometimes a post flops because you posted it when the vast majority of the fandom is asleep #or because it flies in the face of conventional fandom wisdom but is actually a huge banger and people aren't ready for it #but like. sometimes it's just not very good a take #or it's a valid point but is poorly written or expressed or your tone is weirdly hostile #or you blocked like 90% of people who would have reblogged it if they could which is your right but like. there's your problem.
