hi im alive, heres to js say im unable to finish the art due to having a broken stylus and being a horrible finger player and also being a liar considering its almost october. also i will update the master post but it’ll only have sketches/words instead of full rendered shit so yea
as an apology for my (longer than intended) absence im gonna just write all the au shit summary here below and my new idea for the AU :3 (Pretty Long..)
-Heads up my explanation will probably suck, will contain spoilers for BY:EP11, and not be clear since im writing this at 2am on a monday ANDD the new idea will most likely change especially with EP:12^^-
Alright so the AU premise stay’s the same for both versions: Souljam’s explode due to different circumstances causing the Ancient’s to fall under the control of their respective beasts.. Execpt one—White Lily! ..No more polluted because of episode 11. the episdoe that destroyed all my au ideas.l ANYWAYS:
| Original idea 4 White Lily:
The original idea was, thinking that silent salt was the same as all the beasts, sealed by the WITCHES and each striving for a seperate goal—He would of coursw battle White Lily for his power of silence back to cleanse the world. Until a long battle which ends in a tie, both tired and bruised from eachother! (Go girlboss lily). Well due to the lil’ fight both of their souljams are cracked actually. WL’s being the one fully cracked into 3 pieces, while SS only having a crack but still remaining intact!
SS admires WL’s strength and recruits her to help him spread silence. She’d decline at first- before silent salt threatens to kill her friends :D, so she accepts on a condition:
She will serve SS as a Knight of Silence, but in return she visits each one of her friends in attempts to “Help them with their silence”. But in reality shes actually plotting to save her friends because she feels responsible for their fall so she has to help them get back up- But it ends up being too late because dark enchantr- Actually i’ve said too much 🥀
Overall looking back, decent-ish idea.. i guess- Though I prefer the one below :3
| The New Idea 4 White Lily:
Now because the salt shaker was found out to be the one sealing the beasts. Uhm- Of course he’d hate being out and wants the beasts stopped (including himself) once and for all, right!.
Basically as they were detained by the power of silence- Instead of a cool battle (sorry theres none), SS was preparing to give them a prety new tomb here forever- Until WL ends up bringing up.. uhm- uhh.. something kinda like “elder faerie wouldnt want this” or something to get the salt shaker. aught off guard.
SS was skeptical.. Pointing his blade to her chin. Then she explained yk how “Hey i saw your sad memories and looking at it we have the same goal to seal the beasts rightt! lemme help frfr, for elder faerieee :D.”
okay this is obviously not what i actually made her say but thats the summary.
Shortly after a small talk Silent Salt decides to show her how tough it really is and how much little hope is left by showing her visions of her friends via the connection of their souljams—Showing her each of her friends.. Giving up?.. Giving into Deciet, Sloth, Apathy, And eventually Destruction.. Knowing that this was all “Her Doing”, she of course felt guilty and vowed to do anying to help.. Offering to help SS to seal the beasts and even offered a piece of her souljam. Wonder why she fully trusts him so quickly.
Well- Here’s some dialouge bc i suck at summary:
SS: White Lily Cookie.. as much as i admire our similarities in our goals. They aren’t not the same.
WL: What do you mean by that?.. You and I both agree that we want the beasts banished forevermore.
SS:You seem to have misunderstood… I do not want them to be banished back into the tree.
SS:We’ve done it once, and it has failed. There is no chance it’ll work again especially without elder faerie’s help and with the threat of Dark Enchantress.
WL:..So what are you trying to suggest?.
SS:I want the beasts crumbled, gone from the face of earthbread for eternity. They cannot be redeemed, they cannot be forgiven, they can never change. No amount of punishments or confinements we can ever throw at them will change their beliefs nor doings.. Including myself.
WL: Wait- But my friends.. The visions you showed me earlier- They were tainted by their respective beasts aswell. I do not want them to be harmed in the crossfire.
SS: And what makes you so sure they are the same friends you once knew?.
WL: ..Admitedly.. I’m not certain at all. But before you execute your plan could you bide your time while I attempt to save my friends?..
SS: Save your “friends”?.. You have already seen the visions. They are far beyond saving.
They have been blinded by lies, fallen into a forever slumber trapped in an illusion that would eventually fall into the hands of destruction and dissipate into nothingness.
WL: But i can still feel their souljam’s presence. It hasen’t fully vanished.. The beasts seem to not have used or fully claimed their souljams.. My souljam may be split, but my power remains unwavering.
Just let me try meeting each one of them.. And at least try to change their minds before they get caught in the crossfire.. Whether their mind’s are still tainted by Apathy, Destruction, Deciet, Or Sloth. What matters is I get them out. Please.
SS: …Then I ask of you to do one favor once I fufill my goal..
SS: Crumble me along with them.
(Hehe.. this was supposed to be drawn into a comic but as of writing i thought it’d be cool to js spoil it here.)
Anyways after that whole ordeal, WL herself is the one to shatter of souljam- Only into 3 pieces, giving one of them to Silent Salt.
Now she’s been given [???] to be able to save all her friends to corruption and into the palm of herself. So thats how FSAU starts! Literally just WL visiting each one of them just trying to knock their senses back and “save” her friends from her horrible mistake of falling into a cauldron!..
In order she’ll visit Empty Vanilla, Slumberberry, Soulless Cacao, And Lusterless Cheese from first to last ^^
Well.. I have a feeling shes gonna be too late but- meh who knows until i say any more things or release more art (high unlikely)
Oki thats it 4 now, so like ill update the masterpost but with only the sketches because im a moron who cant make drawings in 2 months, andd opening my asksbox for u guys (will take time bc of hs!)
