Yr octopath art gets me fucked UP. the comics feel so real that i honestly can't imagine them not existing in the game. Also it made me think of something hope u dont mind me sharing it. I have therion and olberic brainrot i hope it shows
"What is pride, honor?" Asks Therion.
Olberic startles at the question. The two had been walking, silently, for however long it took the sun to go from noon to sunset. The rest sat comfortably in some inn at some table in Saintsbridge, but Therion had needed out, and Olberic was himself restless in its calm.
He thinks, quiet footsteps and an expectant gaze. "I do not know, to be quite honest. I lost mine when Hornburg fell," Olberic all but grunted. The memory was rawer, now, the meeting with Erhardt in the desert grit in the wound. He hoped it did not show on his face.
"Yet you are still honor-bound," says Therion, tone still the careful flat of indifference Olberic knows the thief uses when he is defensive. "You're a knight of a fallen kingdom. You say you've lost your pride, but to loose you must've had. What was it like, when you had it?"
"Everything I ever did was for the throne. The king was my liege, and I was to protect him. My pride came from every challenge I was his champion for. My honor from the strength of our country, from the stability I could provide," Olberic found himself clenching the hilt of his blade, its rough leather biting into his hand even after all these years. "I cannot claim to have pride or honor when I failed to protect my home. I am honor-bound the way you are greed-bound, a motivation to find where I fit."
Therion is quiet, then. He stares off, picking absently at the hem of his poncho. Olberic has to wonder if the hair blocking his eye impedes his vision at all. He speaks again, after a time, near whispering, "There's no honor in the cliffs. There is no pride in falling from them. I was just wondering what it felt like, 's all."
