Once, he was a warrior.

There’s stories about this church. Nothing anyone admits to believing, not really, but people know that when they come here when they’re losing hope, when they’re desperate... They say miracles happen here for those who truly need them.

I hardly remember my own face anymore.

We’re both sinners, angel; would you rather serve in Heaven, or rule in Hell? More priest sketches! @alouissever and her demon-possessed priest, Adwell, really make me wish I’d joined Void with my angel-masquerading-as-a-priest, Anriel. Oh well, that’‘s what midnight doodles are for!

More wings ! This time, Gweldas and Azran interacting ! Not really surprising, but if Nisis took the role of the "mentor big brother" for Azran, Gweldas was obviously the "fun careless big brother". As a kid/teenager, Azran would follow him in his silly ideas. They would fly on each other's back and jump from Altea's heights like fucking rockets. Ruining everything Nisis taught about safety, of course.

After Azran's corruption arc, Gweldas was left with a deep wound he never recovered from. He doesn't understand why his relationship with his beloved sibling brutally ended, and is heart-broken by how dysfunctional his family has become. Gweldas is a pure and lovey-dovey person who just wants everyone to be happy and love each other. How naive.

For decades after Azran was banished, he would go visit them and try to put the pieces back together, stating it was not too late and that he still loved them. It obviously didn't work. Eventually he stopped trying when Azran ruined his wife's life and killed their child to be born. Gone too far.

Losing both Hel'norii and his own sibling is a huge trauma for him. Contrary to Nisis who reacted with a pissed off despise and "meh, finally you're just like your father", Gweldas truly is devastated.

WINGS WINGS WINGS !!

Just like Nisis and Gweldas, Azran used to have their own wings and they were reddish since they're the creator of red magic. At the time, they were nicer and had a pretty good relationship with their brothers.

Nisis and Gweldas raised them and taught them everything they needed to fly safely (since their parents don't have wings, they could not help with this).

Unfortunately, growing up, Azran felt upset about the throne and royalty, starting to understand how important it was. They quickly got jealous for not being raised as an actual heir and tired of being the third wheel. This jealousy was feeded by Yevlan, whom they were very close to and who persuaded Azran they would constantly be put aside and loved less than the twins.

Then Azran started to corrupt themselves, getting obsessed with money and power, fully aware that their magic could help them getting what they wanted. Their behavior towards their brothers became cruel for no reason, they tricked them many times and rejected everything about them and their past relationship.

When Azran was banished from Altea after corrupting mortals, they felt angrier than ever and refused to have anything to do with their "family". Thus they cut their wings not to look like their brothers, and sold most of the feathers as lucky charms to mortals.

Nowadays legends tell some feathers have remained and buying or finding one would bring eternal fortune and abundance. Azran really regrets the impulsive act of cutting these wings they truly loved, but they would never admit it.
