Inktober day 7

Great worms roiling in the deep, and a needle caught in their storm.

Metamorphosis

II — Savathûn — Imago Unfurl — Verse 8:2 — The Witch:

"My brother's greatest acts of navigation were his metamorphoses. That was his tactic: he would change everything about himself so that he could survive this universe."

Song most listened to: Please by Sydney Valette

Verse Five

You will lie, Sathona, says the worm. If you want to be saved, if you want to live, you will lie.

But Sathona—

Who should be afraid—

Chapter 1: Needle|Worm

Happy Dawning, @xivu-arath!

Since nobody is talking about it, has anybody ever considered just how much trauma Oryx carries from when he was still Aurash?

This poor k i d (I unironically headcanon the triplet as the equivalent of 10 human years old when the whole thing happened) had to witness her father being murdered in her own house, was shoved into a boat for a whole year, in charge of two younger sisters, possibly running away from the assassins that were still on her tracks, got stuck another two years trying to restore an old relic in the attempt to gather enough money to hire mercenaries (because they were exiled princesses and literal minors, so who the hell would have ever offered their support otherwise?)— all of this accompanied only by the incredibly vague warning that the apocalypse was coming and the dreadful awareness that: 1, she was the only one who could save the entire fucking planet because the other person who knew of this catastrophe was, again, brutally killed in front of her; and 2, if she didn't find a way to avoid it, life as she knew it, for how miserable and worthless, would have seen its end forever with no chance of redemption.

It is literally stated that she has a full-blown nervous breakdown in chapter 4 of the Books (actually, it appears to have been multiple of those, in different occasions), to the point were she is paralyzed with fear and Xi Ro has to comfort her. Because they are traumatized kids. And a crisis of this caliber should not be entrusted to them.

Why is nobody addressing any of this?

There is this piece of dialogue in the Nether between savathûn and xixu arath that really hits close to home, it's basically xivu and savathûn talking about the echo of navigation after its destruction, with Xivu screaming about Oryxs being taken away from them once again, and savathûn trying to comfort her by saying it's wasn't really thier brother and that it was disgusted by them and wanted never to do with, savathûn ends the conversation by saying "Xivu, Xi-ro sister, we need to let him go"

This is savathûn acting as a older sister trying to comfort her little sister, after a death in the family,

Of course savathûn is hiding her true furious feeling, as seen in the Worm conversation.

But this conversation is truly a sad one

Because if you strip away everything else it is two sisters mourning their brother, one knowing they have to move on and the other who refuses to.

In this moment it's not Xivu arath god of war or savathûn the witch queen it's Xi-ro and Sathona

And this time there is no Aurash
