Heya ! I am fine thank you
I guess the easiest for me to tell about Leiftan is his all backstory who was actually and unfortunately never correctly exploited and explained in game.
Leiftan was a toddler during the time of the Blue Sacrifice.
The aengels didn’t want to sacrifice as planned, and for this reason they ended up being persecuted by the other faes.
Leiftan’s parents were killed, but before they died they put him in a stasis spell to hide and protect him.
An aengel survivor, Verom, ended up finding him. (Mowgli style XD )
Verom was weak after the persecution and he decided to establish himself at the Fountain of Youth in company of the Naiade nymphe who guarded the fountain. (She is linked to her fountain as hamadryades are with their tree.) She was a good soul and offered her help.
They cared for Leiftan, still in stasis at this point.
After some centuries, Leiftan’s soulmate was born and Leiftan not destined to be alone anymore, the freezing spell broke. Toddler Leiftan slowly awoke and started living again.
So he grew up with his adoptive parents. As soon as he could, Verom trained Leiftan into using aengel powers, and taught him about the Blue Sacrifice etc.
When he was still very young, a group of exploring humans found the fountain’s place by pure luck. They ended up trying to steal its water but in the fight they killed the Naiade. The fountain dried immediately and she turned to stone. There was just a little bit of water left, she could rejuvenate with a lot of time and patience, and hope.
And then we arrive when Leiftan was a young teen, some humans found the fountain again, but this time they knew what they were looking for. And these humans happened to be... leaded by Erika's father. He was looking for that youth fountain discovered years ago, Erika was sick and dying from some unknown disease (certainly related to her Fae genes), and that was the only way he knew that could save her. He wanted the remaining water.
They fought for it, of course. Charles kills Verom (he is an old man by now) and by taking the last drops of the fountain he also kills the Naiade.
With that bit of magical water with him, he and the soldiers left as he came. Thinking everyone dead.
But Leiftan was not, and he is left as a young daemon, partially trained and able to hide his nature. Full of anger and hate. Hate for both faeries and humans and this is his villain origin story.
(And so, Charles is the person who killed his parents, but also the one who saved his soulmate in doing so. How so tragic hehe.)
———————
Another thing is the potion they make Erika drink later in the story so they would forget about her on Earth.
It was Leiftan’s idea all along, he suggested it to Miiko. With this solution, he was sure Erika would have to stay by their side and he would do anything to keep her close to him. He then acted innocent around her.
And for those who might be mad at this revelation, sorry but don’t forget Leiftan has always been a villain and a good two faced one at this. (Especially in the earlier story)

I had done this edit a few months ago, but I decided to re-do the Spica after improving it a lot and it became one of my favorites, I don't even know which is the best. I really love this concept of colors that involves both, a more delicate blue and white for her and a more brusque red and black for him, since the concept of both is that she is more of a pure being and that he is more grotesque as a soldier. I love these two so much, really.
I really loved Mathieu's illustration, so much so that I think it suits Nevra more than his original... I changed the setting because the lighting in the alchemy room is horrible, so much so that I didn't really like her skin but I gave the my maximum. I think this position has more to do with them, because I perfectly imagine him holding her for the height difference and her fumbling with her heels, and they only kiss lightly (in my headcannon, he likes it when he stands still and she kisses him lightly). ♡
Erika: Okay, we'll do our best to make this work, but I still want to know something. Why you hate me?
Erika: (She made a tedious expression as if asking for patience, and I could hear Nevra clear his throat).
Spica: Hearing you claiming to be the last aengel makes me angry. It's just that it's so lame it makes me want to roll my eyes whenever I hear you say it. Did you know that we spent centuries running away from various faeries who wanted to kill us just for existing?
Spica: We've suffered prejudice for generations and it's not just because we sacrifice that this will change. Also, saying that phrase in front of our enemies will make them think they need a bigger army to attack us, and then we'll be at a disadvantage because you don't know the extent of our powers. Did you know that our organs can explode if we use all our power?
Spica: Not wanting to demean you, but you're a mestizo who doesn't even know how to make any other type of shield than the same as always. I can even help you expand your powers, but I'm not taking it easy if you want to use the least and not die with every trip.
Erika: (Embarrassed, I looked at the others present. Karenn seemed to have lost the will to talk about her, as Koori mumbled indecipherable words at seeing Spica speaking so quickly. Nevra, as always, seemed to want to get out of the way to help the other guardians in training).
Erika: (She didn't even look like that frail, understanding woman on prom night, she looked like someone else).
how do you edit the illustrations and what program do you use? could you make a tutorial explaining it better please?
Hi!
I made some tutorials here and here. I'm not good at explaining so I'll make another one so I hope you understand better.
!!! I advise reading the whole tutorial first before trying it.!!!
This tutorial is for PC/MAC programs but can also be used for phone programs.
I'll make this in 3 parts because Tumblr won't let me put more than 10 images per post and I need a lot of images to explain what I'm talking about.
Part 2
Part 3
First, the main program that I use it's Paint Tool SAI. This is a program mainly for artists, but it's also good for editing. it's not free (unless you're a pirate), but you can go with some other programs that are free like Paint NET, Krita, GIMP, PIXLR, etc. I tried them all at least once and I think are also good for editing, especially Paint NET and PIXLR which I use regularly.
So, for this tutorial, I'm going to edit this image using Paint tool SAI but I'll also explain a bit for Paint NET.
First, insert a new layer, so you can easily erase something if you make a mistake. Press the icon that I encircle it with red.
Now, we can actually start editing.
I'll start with the hair. My gardiene's hair looked like the wig from Music Event 2017:
We will clean the place first. In Paint tool SAI you can do that with a brush. I use mostly the airbrush with different densities and while regularly right-clicking so I can copy the colors around, and blur, so I can make everything smooth.
Airbrush
Use small strokes if you have places where you don't have to clean much and bigger ones where you have to clean a lot.
Blur
I forgot to mention something here before you use blur, there's a couple of things. Depending on what density (the level of visibility) you use, you might stomp on something like this. So, chose a low level.
A way not to worry about this is if you copy the original image and paste it over, like this:
Now, in Paint NET there's a tool called Clone Stamp.
This basically lets you copy a small portion of an image in another place. To move the place you just left-click once while pressing CTRL, move the cursor and when you are sure of your place, let go of the CTRL button and left-click again to claim the spot. The semi-transparent circle is the place where you take the image part and the bold one is where the part goes. I get them close to each other obviously. The things marked with red are the hardness (up) and opacity (down). Those together are helping in making different types of brushes.
Ok, so I've cleaned most of the things. If yours looks messy don't be scared, it's ok to look a little messy. You'll cover that up anyway.
Next, we can finally actually start with the hair part. Here you have 2 options: you draw the hair manually or use the wig from the game. I'm going with the second option. The thing here is that the wig is very small in comparison with the illustration, so we'll have to use some drawing anyway (this depends mostly on the part of the image and how close is the character to the camera).
I'm my other tutorials I mentioned something about cutting pieces of the clothes you want to convert in order to have a better result. I'll do the same here.
I'm going to split it thin 4 parts:
Some parts may be even used multiple times to "fill" the head. You can blame the perspective here. You can use the Lasso or there's a brush named Select to copy the part, then you can paste it on your image. On Paint tool SAI, it will automatically add a new layer when you paste something, but in Paint NET you need to insert yourself a new layer.
"He took a deep breath as he leaned against the wall in the second floor hallways, listening to the low chuckles of his partner as she slowly walked out of the main hall. And she knew she was being expected, so she played with her husband and his worst flaw: impatience."~
Leiftan has a very nice colour palette, the white, the green, the blue, the two different colours in his hair... I think he had so much potential designwise to make him A MALEWIFE. AN ABSOLUTE FUCKING GRACIOUS ICONIC MALEWIFE BUT THEY GAVE HIM THE UGLIEST GARB
