These doodles were entirely spawned by me doing the latest Archon Quests and thinking Varka and Addam would get along great

Every now and then, I like to do a study on the art style of an artist I enjoy. This time, I drew Mòrag and Brighid from Xenoblade Chronicles 2 in the style of https://www.tumblr.com/atomic-marshmallows

Happy Imbolc!

Imbolc (pronounced im-bulk or em-bowlk) is an ancient Gaelic festival marking the halfway point between the winter solstice and the spring equinox. It’s a time of "hidden spring"—the moment when the Earth begins to stir, even if it’s still freezing outside.

Traditionally, Imbolc is a festival of light, purification, and fertility. While it feels like the dead of winter, the days are getting noticeably longer, and the first signs of life (like snowdrops or the birth of lambs) are beginning to appear.

The word likely derives from the Old Irish i mbolg, meaning "in the belly," referring to the pregnancy of ewes and the upcoming lambing season.

It’s less about "spring has arrived" and more about "spring is coming." It’s a season for internal spring cleaning—clearing out the old to make room for new growth.

Imbolc is deeply tied to Brighid (Brigid), one of the most beloved figures in Irish mythology and history.

The Goddess In Pagan tradition, Brighid is a triple goddess of fire, poetry, healing, and smithcraft. She represents the "fire of the hearth" and the "fire of the sun."

The Saint As Ireland became Christianized, the figure evolved into St. Brigid of Kildare. Her feast day remains February 1st, and she is a patron saint of Ireland.

Whether viewed as a goddess or a saint, she represents the protective, nurturing force that brings the world out of winter’s darkness.
