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.
Tired of being rescued 'cause it's just a gilded cage I must make amends for all the mess my elders made I was born to lead you all away from your crusade Nations held in anguish had me boiling with a rage
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.

Day III: Devotion
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
Let's haunt the narrative together!
