oohhh fuck i'm speechless

oohhh fuck
i'm speechless goodbye

I've said it a couple hundred

I've said it a couple hundred times now but I'll say it once more - gorgeous work, Kee. The amount of creativity, talent and effort poured here just leaves me speechless. Everything just seems to work together seamlessly, the story, the music and the art. Amazing to see this finally! I am looking forward to seeing how Antares will develop as well. Now excuse me as I sob and rewatch. /;

I'm just... gonna sit here a bit... and stare at this amazing thing... O_O The art is so beautiful, the story original, but my favourite bit is still the 'inverted' Gods. Seriously, that one detail I'm loving to bits, as I too am a fan of thing not being depicted in absolutes. It somehow makes the Twins and Antares both more real and more alien, while adding a frightful kind of respect for the power that can conquer deserts. Simply divine. Eye

Amazing, amazing, amazing. I knew it's gonna be good, but... really, that was far better that I could think. You left me with a feeling that I watched a trailer of f...g good movie that is coming to the cinemas and I can't wait to see the rest of the story...so I think I should track her bio, maybe spy her in the forest lol, to see what will be next ;D

It might just be me, but I've found the text really hard to read when on the desert/bright background in the video so uhm ;; what does it say at around 3:49? 'Green hosts a better world....' then some more that I can't quite see X''''D

Rules are made to be broken.

Rules are made to be broken. This work is unfit to be buried in the endless pile of posts anyway.

I am guilty of not commenting on this. But I remember being so flabbergasted that I just don't recall thinking of anything the few moments after watching... Which would include "remember to comment and let the creator know that you appreciated their work, for the lack of better wording". Sorry. :/

And thanks for posting such a wonderful tale.

Illegal rofl. Kay with the old question blogs but other stuff, it's ridiculous.

I'm glad you enjoy this work, thank you, both ♥
