You go to eden, give one of your wing light to each of the statues, then you die, because you lost all your winged light, and become a statue too. You fall into darkness. But what's that over there? A glowing thing? You go towards it. Though it looks sort of different, it's definitely a winged light. You take its hand just like you've taken so many other winged lights hands. But then you give it a hug and it merges with you. Not with your cape, but you. You break free from your statue, and all the statues you gave a wing light to break free too! You fly to orbit together.
So.. where did that winged light come from? I don't believe it's the prince Alef like some say. It's a winged light. It was - figuratively not literally - given to you by another skykid running through eden. And that skykid will lose all their light, die, and find a winged light. That winged light was given to them by another skykid, who lost theirs and died.
It's an endless cycle of self sacrifice. A cycle of love. A cycle of I would die for you, will you die for me, or rather, someone else like me? And the answer is yes, over and over.
sorry for the inactivity but here are more sketches
I might paint some, I like the first and the second one, I will also do the "less moth" version of Berk, which is in process (if the commissions don't make me disappear again).
lore things, a lot of text ;v; vvv
Orion and Berk are "siblings" cared for by the same veteran, although in the case of orion it is the second veteran to adopt him. You can tell they were raised by Reah because they look like they came from a tribe in the forest.
Hearth took care of Serene, Serene has many siblings but few have decided to continue her journey, part of her elegance comes from Hearth's influence, thanks to him her life as a skykid has not been difficult, but she can be a bit fearful when she has to do things on her own.
Icarus did adopt a moth, but to prove that he could take care of one too, since everyone seemed to have one but him. When you ask him the story about what happened to his moth, he changes it every time…
Marine doesn't hate veterans, but now that she knows more about the world, she will be the veteran who accepts the candle from every moth she sees.
So I want to reboot beyond incandescence, problem there was far too many skykids last time, so now I will open 5 slots for Skykids to be submitted.
What I need info wise is
Your skykids name, mental age and pronouns
A little bit of backstory
A personality and brief explanation of behaviours and mannerisms
Are they close to anyone in particular, be it animal, other skykids or Spirits?
Do they have a goal?
A clear image of your skykid from all angles
To make sure I'm not being bias against which skykids get into the reboot, all submissions will be put in a poll, the top 5 skykids will make it into the comic, this is to keep it fair.
