Losing this off of my blog was a major blow, I put SO much work into this
Inktober day 12. Dragon. I've had this idea for quite some time, and just could never get it to work out how I like. This still isn't exactly what I was trying for (ended up too messy) but oh well. Have a minion battle!! Hraesvelgr vs. Niddhogg! The tides have turned since the actual battle between the two great wyrms, as it appears mini-hraesvelgr has the upper paw!
Inktober leftover. Day 13: Paleontology/Ash
Rebirth of the world tree, with a serendipitous flare of a prism.
Only a month and 3/4 late. In my defense, there was a fire and I had no power.
Love Nikki. Stop Pushing Lunar The Useless!
Love Nikki Dress-up Queen.
Contains Spoilers
So I ploughed through the dreck that is the last chapter of Campaign. Just Niddhogg to go.
He is so gorgeous! Evil. But gorgeous. Especially in his uniform.
And frack, was it boring!
So that bloody wet Lunar dies. Really stupidly. Avoidabley.
Behold
Yes. Fight the soldier while wearing a mermaid skirt. Such a good idea!
Go Niddhogg!
What a shock!
Not!
She died. Stupidly.
I don't care. I hate her.
Niddhogg did us a favour.
Go Niddhogg!
...................
Lunar is horribley pushed. Overhyped, overated, obnoxious.
They really desperately want to push her.
She is so wet a light breeze would knock her over.
Apparently. She is inexplicably the Head Designer Of Cloud City.
They don't have high standards. Can't have been a lot of competition.
I know Clouds wet but come on!
How we meet her.
Don't waste your time, Bobo. You'll regret it. She's a bitch.
That sums it up. Just forget her. She's useless.
Well OK THEN!
Some fuckery later.
That's right.
Miss precious got mugged by Mela.
The supposed Head Designer.
The girl who owns swords with such a ridiculously and stupidly dark story Drakengard and NiER would say
'FUCK NO!!!!!
What the bouncing fuck is wrong with you?! Why would you do that?! '
Got mugged. No joke. It wasn't a fashion fight. No. She robbed her.
You get the feeling Lunars story has snowballed massively. And ridiculously.
It's completely unconvincing.
She's a horribley unconvincing Mary Sue. She never stops simpering!
Every Dreamweaver she has is vapid and dragged out.
They really think you will care the more they pile it on.
Not how it works.
At least she is dead now. Thank goodness.
It won't let me put all the first meeting. Plus captions. Too many pictures.
She is one of the worst characters ever!
Okeydoke, so a while ago, I drew The World Tree, well, the story is; The World Tree was the most ancient dragon, made from the very fibers of life itself, and it was so massive that it was said to hold the very world on it's back. One day, a lone hero stood against it, to ensure that mankind would never face its wrath. Little did he know, in attacking the tree, he unleashed the dark dragon, Niddhogg, who would end all life as it is known.
Niddhogg
Origin: Norse mythology
Type: Giant serpent
Habitat: Underneath the world tree, Yggdrasil
Niddhogg is a gigantic serpent with dragon scales and claws residing under the earth. It feeds on corpses and chews at the roots of the world tree, Yggdrasil, in hopes that the Universe will fall. The damage is undone everyday, due to the action of three wise beings called Norns who pour sacred water on the roots.
