I've been really enjoying Vintage Story: Torch playthrough and of course thought of the idea to draw the progression of the Ashen Oak settlement. And like my last fanart of the Oak tree, I added more quails and a hidden quail & fish

if there's a Paul Atreides out there, anywhere, i'm so fucking sorry i never knew about the Gom Jabbar. your mother went behind my back and let that woman torture you. i'm sorry. it was my castle, my house, my walls. it was my job to protect you and i failed and i'm sorry. you were so brave but you shouldn't have needed to be. you were fifteen. just a boy. you should have been safe and warm in bed or reading about those desert mice you loved so much.

watching those movies is painful for me at times. seeing everything i couldn't help you through. i get sick to my stomach seeing Jessica standing next to me on that screen because now i know just how badly she betrayed my trust. it's a little ironic, really. in this life i practice my own form of witchcraft, yet despise the Bene Gesserit. i should have been there for you. i'm sorry. i love you, my son.

*loud ass sigh* so turns out i was wrong abt kinning Paul Atreides. yeah no it's his dad. it's Leto. which explains why i feel so protective of the little shit (Paul). like every time my mom says that the story of Dune isn't a tragedy i want to bite things [negative]. wdym this isn't a tragedy. Paul is 15 and being told he's a messiah. he's 15 and the first thing he does is beg for help. that is a tragedy. gods i miss my Paul.

i have lived for so long carrying this source as a matter of quiet and personal knowledge, and struggle now to grasp that it has fallen under the eyes of all the world. every day i hear casual discussion of dune, of arrakis and her prophet, and every day i must remind myself that no one knows of my own part in that tragedy. worse still, what has been captured in the screen is only the shadow of the body; i see now all the time images of that life, even images of "myself", which i know to be the play of puppets behind the fire. and yet, there is no way to explain this to those innocents who behold it; and i have no right to do so, when i myself painted that world in so many lies.

even so, i know my beloved ones did walk the sands of eternity. i raise my hand to trace the line of their passage, and my heart remains the tomb of that boundless and heavenly martyrdom.
