👁️ Their Dreams 🏹

☀️ 『 I've always been there, their guide from afar.
Helping their dreams as the light of a star. 』 ♊

[Elaboration down in replies!]

(Not going to use hashtags from now on. Crossing fingers for the algorithm to not screw me over as it has done thus far.) 🫠

Elaboration and composition. :D

☀️ Heaven's Gate ♊

『 At thunder's cry—
In lightning's wake,
the storm draws nigh. 』

[Elaboration down in the reply!] 🫠

Context and composition notes. :D

☀️ An Echo Through the Ages ♊

『 A love that echoes through the ages—
Through tales untold, 'twixt lines and pages. 』

[Elaboration added in the reply!]

Sure! Besides, I do not use this site beyond sharing my work so it is better to catch me on X or Discord. Poke me with an @ over there when you send me the message because I have my DMs restricted so I can authorize you and all that. 🙏

I could send it to you by post, if I print it myself—I have done that before for sending gift prints to a friend. I would have to charge you for the fee but it is not that much, maybe 10-15€? If it is international post and all that. I would need your direction though. :'D

I have never sold once a print because I have zero demand for commissions—I tried, but I guess my work is not to the audience's taste—but, I would gladly sell them. I do not have the monetary situation to refuse. :'D

Normally I do not share my linearts, but I spent days and sweat and blood and suffering just working on this—on Hades's transformed form to be precise—and since the print is rather dark and the inking does not stand out, if you will allow me the flex, I share it here. 🫠

☀️Curtain Call ♊

『 Look at me, my star, one last time bright—
I shed the mask, stand bare before thy sight. 』

♊ Our Tale at Sunset 🌟

『 Come, hear the tale of a vow long ago sworn,
'Twixt the Sun and I, our world to mourn. 』

#MyArt #FFXIV #FFXIVART #FF14 #EmetSelch

If I were to explain this thing, we would be here for a while because the list of receipts is long. It is exhaustive lorediving and theorycrafting work blerghed in visuals, as usual. But I leave the summary of it I wrote on Reddit. 🫠

☀️ Ashes to Ashes ♊

『 One way out, the end I seek—
Death's kiss upon my lips so sweet. 』

#MyArt #FFXIV #FFXIVART #FF14 #Azem #EmetSelch #azemet

☀️ Oathbrand ♊

『 Honor and praise, gilded they shine—
Yet mean naught to me if thou art not mine. 』

☀️ Away ♊

Written work, or rather, Meowth's lorediving and theorycrafting madcap thoughts for Dawntrail onwards made into one-shot format. 🫠

☀️ Sylleblossom ♊

『 When the world falls down
around you, and hope is lost—
when you find yourself alone,
amid a lightless place... 』

☀️ Unbound ♊

If you think Azem would not be the first one to jump at the chance of joining the Passage of the Unbound—without Hades to grab them by the scruff, that is—you are deluding yourself. 🫠

♊ The Hermetic 🌟

Been polishing my design for Eighth Umbral Calamity timeline Hades, or alternatively his incarnation when acting as 'Azem'. Not that it will matter, when it happens and it is different—but want to see how close I get. 🫠

#MyArt #FFXIV #FF14 #FFXIVART #EmetSelch

Thank you so much! I drew this one not long after EnW release. I draw characters as a way to understanding them and Hades is such a complex and fascinating character whose story, by the by, is far from over, DT was not exactly subtle about that—but I guess, I try to portray the man, not the mask. :D

☀️ Sunset ♊

You may call this a form of self-indulgent theorycrafting regarding the end of this new story arc, or alternatively Meowth's brain blerghing excess brainrot. Both are technically correct. 🫠

#MyArt #FFXIV #FFXIVART #FF14 #emetwol

Thank you so much! <3

Here you have the full poem. :)

♊ The Seeker of Truth 🌟

『 In knowledge lies the power to be free,
In truth alone, the soul finds liberty. 』

Also I have spent two days working in the design of two of those damn circles, the alembics and the table. Destroy me.

☀️ Homecoming ♊

『 Home is not where you live
But who cares when you're gone 』
— In the Blood [Hades]

Also yes, Hades has negative IQ when it comes to processing emotion/feelings/affection. 🫠

Thank you so much! I suck at poetry, my field is much more poetic prose, but Hades is narratively tied to William Shakespeare so, I Tried(tm). English is not my native language, so it makes it even worse. :'D

Truth is I had to blergh my post-Dawntrail speculation, and I make things complicated. xD

☀️ Promises to Keep ♊

Most people loredive like normal people. Then there is your local Meowth. 🫠

But yes. One day I will elaborate on E12's theme, I swear. Because it gets deep, you know not how.

☀️ Resolve & Reason ♊

The sundered in contrast would be Ultima's 'progeny' using Hydaelyn as proxy. In that aspect, she would have been the creator of /current/ mankind. Or one race, if we understand the Ancients and the sundered as two different races that as of now, one of them has been effectively led to extinction.
