This past couple of weeks I've been considering heavily to do a small revamp of the blog on a different one, mainly to keep everything organized (and also so the tags stop annoying me to hell and back, Tumblr's tagging system can be awful like that). I will be working on migrating some posts here and there so that I don't flood everyone's dashes with all the content that is relevant to the blog. In the meantime, please do like this post and I'll make sure to follow you from the new blog ♥︎

Would you kindly leave a ♥ or ↻ if you’re interested in interacting with a low activity Cartethyia / Fleurdelys blog of Wuthering Waves? Crossover friendly and multi-verse. Mature content warning ahead due to the nature of the game and heavily headcanon based.

I finished moving all the posts I found relevant to be on the revamped blog. All that is left to do is queue other thingies like musings and the like and draft the things I owe. Since it's a bit chaotic with all the posts I copy-pasted, I'll wait a few hours or until tomorrow to follow the peeps that liked the other post / I talk regularly with ♥︎

WUTHERING WAVES "I am the Beginning, and the End; the First Breath and the Final Sigh.. I have ever been Rinascita's sole Divinity. By my Gospel alone didst thou arise, United and Reborn. And now thou dare lift thy hand against me?"

[lmperatrium]

𝐗𝐗𝐗𝐈𝐈𝐈. It's beautifully ironic how deeply connected Cartethyia is with Rinascita as a whole, starting from the symbolism of its name as «resurrection» [insert Jesus joke here] even though I feel like KRG pressed the abuse of the death topic with her, but also the three main paths of the Order of the Deep's teachings: Salvation (the one she personally chose to follow and which she actually did on her "own" during the second Dark Tide, and then after with the rest against Leviathan), Unity (not only because of her ties with Leviathan, but because she literally asked for the people of Rinascita to unite and she did bring all their hopes and wishes together in that battle) and Ascension (I yapped about this in the past without having nearly as much foundation as I do now, but she did ascend to divinity on her own right).

To further expand on the last point, it's very nice that eventually she stopped hiding who she is and actually stepped in to undo the Order's wrongs alongside Phoebe. She doesn't have to be a leader figure, just be there and help the people to rebuild Ragunna as she has a notable authority to command within the Order. All in all, if there were to be an analogous to the Sentinels as humans, I'd say that this would be her. A divine entity in all her right that chose to live as a human and be there for humans.

Currently, I'm struggling with a burnout of everything™, which I think that is mostly because of class as that's my biggest source of daily stress alongside family things. I don't know when I'll be properly active again (it might drag on until the end of February, which is when classes will end) but if I do in some manner, it'll be dedicated to the people I've plotted the most with as those replies come easier for me. On that vein, IMs are always open to change that for those peeps who aren't on the same page!

Remember the wings talk from some time ago? To think that I was stretching it...

This comes from Fenrico's use of the lantern given to Napoli II, which holds part of Imperator's frequencies. So I wasn't too far-off into thinking that Thyia could pull these off, since she's in possession of most of Imperator's divinity within herself— that being said, very gorgeous wings.

[lmperatrium]

Some time has passed since the first OST compilation I have made of soundtracks linked with Thyia (as of June 2nd, actually) and there have been more of them released that she is connected to. So without further ado, here are the soundtracks ordered by albums:

「Unending verses」

☥ We pray, here and now ☥ The sinner's solitary shadow ☥ Glorious sanctuary, merciful light ☥ Suspended twilight ☥ Requiem for the river of tears ☥ For all eternity ☥ An unattainable dream ☥ An undying promise ☥ No light for the sanctuary ☥ At the edge of light and darkness

「Duplicitous tower」

☥ With glory shall I fall ☥ Chains of oath, echoes of promise

「Against the tide」

☥ Against the tide

「Glory in revelry」

☥ Fate and circumstances

「An untitled long poem」

☥ Daughters of Rinascita

「Dawn breaks」

☥ The dying wind ☥ Ode to the indomitable ☥ Chasing daylight

Spice-related thing under cut, more because of spoilers rather than the level of spice.

No but seriously— in what moment did Leviathan look at Fleur and said "if one day I cosplay as her, I'm gonna make it spicy"?? If evil why hot.

𝐗𝐗𝐗𝐈𝐈𝐈. Considering Cartethyia's unique situation as a Resonator of both Sentinel and Leviathan and now that the Rinascita arc has reached its finale, I think it's important to determine and set to stone the convoluted circumstances she's been in terms of external influences within her, as well as explain what had happened during 「The Bygone Shall Always Return」 and 「Dawn Breaks on Dark Tides」 and why it developed the way it did.

Starting from the beginning, Cartethyia was conceived by Leviathan post-merging with Imperator by using the Returning Pod of the latter and after claiming the Sentinel's powers, which puts her in a position where she acts as a confluence between both beings since her birth. To further accentuate this concept, she is categorized by the Black Shores as a Congenital Resonator, meaning that she was born with innate Forte (not to mistake with a lack of need of awakening of the same, which aren't the same— one may possess innate Forte and use part of it but not awaken it in full from the very beginning). To put an example, she already exhibited traits attributed to Imperator such as telepathy —when she communed with the Laureates, one of the things she's remembered for is suggesting to eat healthy food like Laurus Salad— and her sentience of people's prayers, hopes and will in the strict sense (whether she showcased other abilities is up to debate, but these two were officially stated).

On the day of her official coronation as the Blessed Maiden (after having already been acting as one for a few years), it is said that her Forte was awakened and with it, the second Dark Tide erupted. This was a result of all the faith that Fleurdelys has accumulated from the people, which in turn strengthened Leviathan and gave It the perfect chance to assert dominance over Rinascita. During this major event, two relevant scenarios happened: Cantarella, the one who was genuinely chosen by Imperator to act as Their resonator forsook her Second Resonance Awakening and gave that power to Imperator, which helped Them regain some agency and control over Themselves. This led to the following scenario which involved Fleurdelys fighting against Leviathan. Thanks to Imperator's involvement, she was able to strike the Divine body and kill the Sentinel. However, Leviathan, in order to not remain in a dead body, abandoned it and merged with Fleurdelys instead.

From this moment forth, there has been a constant fight for control between Fleurdelys and Leviathan. As a countermeasure to weaken Leviathan until she came up with a way to deal with It permanently and to put a stop to the second Dark Tide, she created a Sonoro Sphere where the entirety of the Dark Tide would be contained and fragmented herself in order to lessen the Threnodian's strength in various sets of frequencies: Haultir (herself + Imperator), Hognis (herself + Leviathan), the part of herself that she wouldn't bear to lose (amnesiac Cartethyia) and what remained of herself, the main body of what encompasses her existence and what would continue to be affected by time.

The succession of events that happened in the Inverted Tower where Fleurdelys confined herself for two decades was key for two more eventualities: 1) Fleurdelys allowed herself to be killed, which technically should've caused a great dent in Leviathan's power —dent, not permanent death— but 2) because she was revived by Imperator and Cartethyia chose to not lose the memories she had lost upon Fleurdelys' fragmentation and her experiences for the following decades, she's back to square one. Leviathan hasn't been dealt with at this point yet and It'll continue to be a problem.

Moving forward, Cartethyia is in a position where there is some semblance of balance between Imperator's divinity and Leviathan's. Nevertheless, there are moments where she unconsciously absorbs Dark Tide energy surrounding her and this only accentuates during the events that befall in Septimont at Cristoforo's hands, all a well-crafted plan to throw Cartethyia off-balance by having been too exposed to the Dark Tide and the growing influence of Leviathan over the frequencies of Imperator that linger within her. Most of Leviathan's godhood is within her, while only a small portion materialized in the form of a gem that has been in the Fractsidus' hands.

「The Bygone Shall Always Return」 begins with her "death", which was no more than a meticulous plan crafted with Galbrena's help. While she's been resting in the Sonoro Sphere she originally created to keep the second Dark Tide (all of it impregnated with Imperator's frequencies, so the point of her rest there was so that she could continue to absorb through her unconsciousness the Sentinel's frequencies in order to return to that balance of external forces), she was tracking the location of the last fragment of Leviathan's frequencies within the gem. She splits her humanity —frequency— from the godhood within her, nearly fused to completion with her humanity —body—. Galbrena shoots her body in order to consume her frequency —humanity— and send it to Leviathan's heart through the following reasoning: given that Leviathan won't distinguish whether It will absorb Its godhood back or something else from Cartethyia, they make Leviathan absorb her humanity so that she can become an Anchor and shackle It while her body —which contains most of Leviathan's godhood— will be kept under the Fisalia's safety after.

When the final showdown comes, Cartethyia's mind stirs awake and separates herself from Leviathan to join the fight along the rest. In the end, Leviathan's fractured being is split apart from the gem and part of it is absorbed by Galbrena —later on to be sent to the Black Shores and be monitored by them within the Tethys system—. Nevertheless, there is still another part of Leviathan that lingers within Cristoforo, little as it is. Cartethyia's humanity returns to her body, now free from Leviathan's influence over her given the aforementioned events and the change in the Rinascitans' collective consciousness due to the Civilization Capsule. Given that most of Leviathan's godhood still remains in her body and it is implied that she's currently back in a healthy balance (absorbing the contents of the gem would only throw that balance off again), the same applies to Imperator's godhood.

To summarize Cartethyia's current situation, she's unburdened by Leviathan and completely unfettered from It while simultaneously holding most of Its divinity within her. Similarly, the same amount of divinity from Imperator (could've been that way from the very start through her conception, arguably heightened when They resurrected her with what little remained of Their frequencies) is inside of her, as well as her own being. All three of them nearly fused with her being, if not completely at this point after the recent events.
