Another Thing About Garlemald In EW: The Irony Of The Empire Being Destroyed Not By An External Enemy

another thing about Garlemald in EW: the irony of the Empire being destroyed not by an external enemy but from within, first by civil conflict and then by the Teleophoroi.

Many of the Garlean leaders, inlucing Varis and Gaius, were what we might call "principled villains", who thought they were doing the right thing - if only for their own people at the expense of literally everyone else. But then the works of these people who did terrible things believing they were justified get brutally dismantled by Zenos and Fandaniel, who proudly claim not to believe in anything.

It's this that makes what Zenos says to Jullus in that one cutscene make sense. No "good reason" would have made the violence the Empire inflicted on others right, just like no good reason would justify Zenos destroying the Empire and it's people in such a terrible way.

need more fic exploring the hilarity of Bruce being the one to pilot the JL planes and spaceships when Hal Jordan is RIGHT there. or perhaps the inherent sensuality of Bruce painstakingly building a prototype plane and then handing it off to Hal who’s salivating in the corner.

It’s done \o/   it was kind of a new thing for me, big groups and a different type of lighting but I just love the idea of the Convocaton’s prayers turned them into this mass  Mostly based on Drakengard 3  also some isolated shots cause I like how some of the individuals came out as well

black and white doodle comic, except way higher effort than i usually put. Also it's not comedy this time.
This comic features my WoL OC Jarvis and his Azem.
The last scene of shadowbringers before the final boss.
Emet selch gets a glimpse of WoL's soul after fusing with Ardbert, for a second, resembling Azem.
the body itself burns shining hot as a white silhouette, while the robes are dark gray, as the ancients usually have them. Over top their head is the symbols of Azem
Emet-Selch looks to the WoL as for a split second he sees Azem. In shock of what he is seeing.
"No, It can't be.... A trick of the light, nothing more..."

Let's haunt the narrative together!
