the guardian of the seal

[crash-tube-the-seawing]

When the love of once tragic lovers mutates the branches of the one loved so dearly, what is left for their creation to do than find the ones its ‘parents’ once knew?

Blind, and heavily scarred, not many know of this Cookie’s origin, however for those that do, its presence only brings horror. Whether because of its misshapen ‘horns’ which are uneven and lopsided, or its dull, lifeless eyes, making it seem not more than a zombie, depends on the Cookie

My take on the Silver Tree as a Cookie (and it’s also a Eldersalt fankid)

[sadbiztv]

Obviously been done before but here's my take on the silver tree as a cookie

It goes by it's/it and doesn't rlly know how being a cookie works or how to act like one

It's kinda like a baby if the baby was 10000+ years old and had elder horrors trapped inside it

It's mute and has no grasp on the cookie language or culture outside the fearie kingdom

I'll deffo draw it and it's weird siblings more after the update lol

Guess who finished Silent salts beast yeast :D

Guess who’s in tears :,DDDD

I need to yap a bit so spoilers below cut

WHAT THE HELL

HE WAS SO SWEET AND KIND NO MY BOY

I do have to wonder how him and Elder faerie became friends, but I will admit Im a bit glad they are not the same person

STILL THOUGH

he was trying to protect cookiekind from the fallen virtues

THEN ALL HIS KNIGHTS DIED

AND HE JUST GAVE UP

HE WAS SO SAD

also I KNEW it was him who sealed them in the tree (I find it interesting that the witches actually had absolutely nothing to do with it, it was all silent salt)

ALSO THE ANIMATION???? THE FLASHBACK WITH ALL HIS KNIGHTS???? THE HOLY FORKS COMING FOR THE BEASTS AND GROWING THE TREE AROUND HIM??????

AHHHHHH I LOVE HIM SO MUCH HE NEEDS A HUG

THE FACT HE WAS THE LAST TO FALL

AGGGGHHHHHHHHH

ok thats all for know but I will probably come back later :3

Lisa Gerrard: Devotion ( The Silver Tree 2007).

    Debo ser el último tiempo    La lluvia definitiva sobre el último animal en los pastos    El cadáver donde la araña decide el círculo.    Debo ser el último peldaño en la escala de Jacob    Y el último sueño en él    Debo ser el último dolor en la cadera.    Debo ser el mendigo a mi puerta    Y la casa puesta en venta.    Debo ser la tierra que me recibe    Y el árbol que me planta.    En silencio y despacio en lo oscuro    Debo ser la víspera. Debo ser la sal    vuelta hacia atrás.    O la pregunta a la hora de partir.    Daniel Faria

Walraven gets hit with the Mastersona beam.

I chose the word "route" as it comes from French and specifically refers to a chosen path, alluding to travelling and suggesting some form of guidance. It also descends from the Latin phrase "rupta via", which is defined in the image as "a path made by force".

..."Route" is also a common term for the direction a game's story takes based on a set of choices made by the player.

Guess who speaks French and Latin, is plagued by prophetic visions and has to make tough decisions as a total foreigner given too much power!

Extra images under the cut:

I studied some pallid bat (Antrozous pallidus) images for this. I want to get better at drawing bats. :}

I did misinterpret something as fluff because the opacity of the image was way down, haha. At least the shapes are there. Also, I took liberties with the fur because the point was more about where it was and how I could convey the fluffiness.

By the way, since Story Nexus has been shut down today, here is the wikia for the Silver Tree, as all the game's text has been archived there.

The Silver Tree Wiki

The Silver Tree Wiki

Honestly at some point I’m probably going to want to go through the wiki and document everything myself since I actually had an incident while trying to make this post where the page kept giving me a bad gateway error, and it was just poor timing but it made me think for a hot second that story nexus shutting down somehow effected this site as well.
