[=10]“So?”

A single word. It came from Azalea, who was just as lilting and ethereal as her voice. She and Vipin were alone, in the midst of a clearing, at the end of the forest—Vipin loomed. In his stay in limbo, he had regained much of his lost beauty. Some of his scars had faded and others had defined themselves. The markings on his sides shimmered white, and his eyes were forever that calm, mild blue. So common, but entirely too beautiful, and entirely too wearied.

“We’re going to stay here, indefinitely,” he responded, after a pause. He was staring off into the trees, his gaze drifting idly, searching. For what, he knew not. Searching for answers to questions he still did not know, perhaps. The wind hissed through the leaves, as if to deter him.

Azalea seemed surprised, if not bewildered. She looked around, quickly, like a joke had been played, or like she had misunderstood. When she looked back, Vipin had not moved. His jaw was clenched. The dame struggled over her words, and they came in stumbles. “But…Her. And Magnet, and Spade and Devi, and Vessel, and Chanse and Ketan—“

“We know.” Despite himself, Vipin wore a smile. It was vague, and sad. Azalea had seen it many, many times before. “We know, and we know very well. Of course. But we’ve done all of them, collectively, more harm than we could ever do good. They watched as we ruined ourselves over things we could not help. Not only them, but the others. The bystanders…the friends. Them, as well…it’s better like this. We never fit into that world. We tried. And we couldn’t.”

His eyes fell to the ground immediately before him. Poppies. They had been wrapped around his antlers so many times, in times of mourning, in times of battle. They mocked him.

They were martyrs, he and his sisters. They fit into the gray world of limbo, not the stark black-and-white of the other. They were not inherently good or reputedly evil. They were a wash of gray.

what you guys think?

Stalsaris Stag Concept

So I am in the midst of deciding what I ultimately want my stag, Stalsaris to look like. I got a stag template from DA (thank you Animals-and-All), and I just did some doodles on it in Photoshop until I got what I wanted. Overall I want him to have deep, dark blues and greys all over, he is somewhat undead so I also want him to have a skull for a face (obvious inspiration from the Zombie Set there) but also look somewhat cheery. He has bright glowing blue eyes in the sockets of his skull. I'm still not entirely sure where I am going with his antlers though, I sort of want them to look regal but very aged. Maybe I will add some moss or plant life growing on them?

Keep in mind this is a very quick, basic idea of what I want him to look like. At some point I will upload some actual art of him, but only after I know for sure what he is going to look like.



Suggestions are welcome and appreciated.

Connection Issues T~T

I have been having connection issues getting online on TEF this morning. I know that this is on my end because the internet connection here isn't great and I never have problems connecting to the forest anywhere else. I can still roam the forest and jump about but there are no other deer for Stalsaris to interact with, which is sad.

After lonely hopping about for a while Stalsaris seeked out the weeping statue for comfort.



Hopefully we can get connected properly again soon.

Return of the Stag

I returned to the forest today after a long time of wandering elsewhere only to find I had forgotten how to do even the most basic manuevers....a kind deer showed me the ropes for a while and then I had to unexpectedly leave without being able to show thanks. I can't even recall the pictogram, I only know that we swapped masks and antlers for a good while and had a number of laughs. So thank you, mystery deer. Smiling Wish I had remembered how to do screenshots before my sudden departure so I could post your kind visage.
