🔆 Seljuk Sadık requested by @dreaminglightning and @lemongribs 🔆
The story is, I searched for reference of Seljuk style clothing, saw cool costumes from a Turkish series, then later found a forum topic say” The cloths in the Turkish series are all inaccurate” and the topic also provide drawings of Seljuk clothing from, maybe, multiple history books. I searched for other references to make sure what I am gonna draw is not far from the fact. But later sat down thinking “These pictures surely have copyright… so if I use them as refs I shouldn’t just straightly copy from it. Better safe than sorry”
I end up mixing every feature I like to this young long hair boi 👀 [and, because I can’t even draw accurate pattern and calligraphy so I have to made them sketchy]
Also, I really like the fur cloth thing I see from the series’ costume even it may not a historically accurate piece so I add it here too! 🤣
About Seljuk Sadık theory
consider the official Hetalia story from an age-old Hetalia Drama CD, which said Sadık knew Mama Greece before he fought her, it can be indicated that that is the time before he came to Anatolia, so it is very possible that Sadık is also a personification/soul of the Seljuk as well.
Recently, I have thought of a Headcanon theory about maybe the soul of nomadic nations were born and work differently from the soul of settled nations, because before the world decided to draw the border on the land and made them countries, the nomadic nations were not so rely on a place, they roamed, hunted and settled everywhere they could. They sometime did not even need an official capital for their empire. However, a major city is still require. But as the tribes moved, the major city was gradually changed from time to time.
So did the nomadic souls. They were not tie to a place and could follow their tribes everywhere. They may mainly be in the major city for a long while until it started to decline, that’s when they move for another land.
Sadık may used to be a nomadic soul that move with his tribe, he went from western Asia to Anatolia when the leading power within the nation was shift from the former to the the later, and decided to settled there in Constantinople.
Since his empire also tried to advance further into other regions such as Europe in the meantime, I assume he might not make a decision in the first place about where should be his final home. However, In the present days, as the borders are established, there are very less nomadic races and no nation can roam freely anymore, so everyone fully becomes a settled soul within the border, including him.
