Hall of Echoes - for Magic: The Gathering's Reality Fracture This painting took me quite some time to wrap my head around. The description my art director Sarah Wassell sent me was very abstract and hard to visualize, but I'm very happy with how this turned out in the end.
A floating orb of iridescent liquid metal surrounds a star - the edges of the orb turn into hands reaching for the star. In the background we see floating towers

Post of the year
Reality Fracture seems to be a true love letter to Magic the Gathering, featuring a wealth of well-crafted references to beloved cards and characters. And so, it only makes sense that this year’s world championship will feature Star Trek booster draft.

Three panel comic. Panel 1: a guy is being interviewed in an office. The interviewer, pointing to his computer display, asks, “can you explain this gap in your resume?” The interviewee replies, “uh…” Panel 2: out of thin air a portal emerges between the two men. Rocketing out of the portal is a time traveling dodo bird wearing futuristic gear. The dodo exclaims, “I’m back! I saved us from extinction!” A coffee cup is knocked over. Panel 3: at the edge of the desk, the dodo takes a knee, staring futilely out the window to a metropolitan city. It says, “No… NO!!” The two men observe, nonplussed.

its times like this that i really appreciate mamdani's answer when asked about the concept on irish reunification earlier this year and he was basically just like "i don't know enough about it to make any real comment, but irish immigrants have continued to make NY a great place to live"

sad how very likely nothing will be said about this by any political commentator from either side in the U.S. it was very funny seeing ppl's reactions to mamdani's comments on the issue (or i guess the lack thereof) earlier this year

(1/4) To Bind Our Echoes That We May Be Whole A Hollow Knight Fancomic Chapter 10: Loathe the Way They Light Candles in Rome (But Love the Sweet Air of the Votives) #HollowKnight #Silksong
A multi-panel black and white comic featuring Hornet and Midwife from Hollow Knight, and Shakra and Lace from Hollow Knight Silksong. Hornet, Lace, and Shakra arrive at the Distant Village and the entrance to the Beast's Den. Inside, they find Midwife conversing with a couple Little Weavers and Stalking Devout. Midwife immediately recognizes Hornet and greets her warmly, updating her briefly on the state of Deepnest before attempting to take a bite out of Shakra and Lace. Hornet puts an end to this behavior with one of her iconic slaps. This delights Midwife, and she directs the party on to Herrah's Shrine.

Midwife: Oh ho ho ho! Familiar tremors grace the threads of our nest.
Hornet: You look well, Midwife.
Midwife: Ever considerate, dear princess. Deepnest limps along, but Dola and I sleep with bellies full… and so have little room for complaint.
Midwife: However… I wouldn’t dream of rejecting such tender morsels so generously gifted– ACK!!
Midwife: Heehee! I see your journey has taught you no new respect for your elders. Delightful. Go on then. Best not keep your mother waiting.A multi-panel black and white comic featuring Hornet and the Pale King from Hollow Knight, and Shakra and Lace from Hollow Knight Silksong. Hornet, Lace, and Shakra arrive at Herrah's shrine, a large but simple stone effigy of Herrah on her throne, surrounded by candles, in the room where she once laid as a Dreamer. Shakra asks Hornet to tell her story, and Hornet recounts the story of the plague. However, as she does so, she mentally draws direct parallels to her own actions in Pharloom.

Shakra: Ah. A humble shrine that tells tale of a ruler still esteemed. Will you not speak her to life?
Hornet: I have little skill as a weaver of words.
Hornet: …
Hornet: …. There was a plague. A horrible, desperate play by a goddess scorned, whose festering light fouled soul and shell ‘til all was ruin and rot.
Hornet: …. There was a plan. A horrible, desperate play by a god-king damned, whose vain hope saw him gamble fate to spare a realm beloved.A multi-panel black and white comic featuring Hornet, Monomon, Lurien, and Herrah from Hollow Knight, and Lace from Hollow Knight Silksong. Hornet continues telling Lace and Shakra her story. She describes the Vessel Plan without directly mentioning Hollow, and moves on to the role of the Dreamers. Lace, alarmed at mention of the Void, openly derides the plan for its foolishness, to which Hornet agrees. Hornet posits that her mother, too, knew that the plan would fail, but participated regardless. Lace demands why, only to realize that Hornet, somehow, must be the answer.

Hornet: He fashioned a trap: A vessel of void fit to bind that blinding light…
Lace: !!!
Hornet: An enchantment sealed thrice:
Hornet: “To protect the Vessel, the Dreamers lay sleeping.”
Hornet: Monomon the Teacher. Lurien the Watcher. And Queen Herrah the Beast. My… my mother.
Lace: Foolishness. To think any binding could hold true against a goddess’s wrath.
Hornet: Indeed. Ultimately, the king’s plan proved folly…
Hornet: … and did naught but slow the inevitable collapse. But… I believe my mother suspect that end, and took up the charge regardless.
Lace: Why!? Why knowingly resign herself to death in a failed god’s name? What could she possibly stand to…
Lace: …gain?
Lace: ….
Lace: …Ah.
Lace: Ahahaha! Of course.A multi-panel black and white comic featuring Hornet, the Pale King, the White Lady, and Herrah from Hollow Knight, and Lace from Hollow Knight Silksong. Hornet continues her tale to Lace and Shakra. Hornet posits that Herrah's plan was simply to buy enough time for Hornet herself to mature and defend herself against the imminent threat of Silk. Hornet corrects Lace's assumption that her mother did this to groom her into a god-killer, stating instead that Herrah's only goal was Hornet's survival and happiness--and that in doing so, she had won.

Hornet: My mother bargained not for the eternity promised, but for time enough.
Hornet: Time enough under protection of Wyrm and guidance of Root.
Hornet: Time enough to hone my needle against greater threats to come.
Lace: She bore a weapon, a slayer of gods.
Hornet: She bore a daughter… My god-slaying was incidental. Her only wish was that I live… fully and freely.
Lace: How… magnanimous.
Hornet: How wise.
Hornet: Queen Herrah was no deity, no scholar, no priest.
Hornet: A beast they named her, yet she alone triumphed against both gods and fate. Though she did not live to see her wish fulfilled… my mother won.

Little fun this morning before the slog. A little too cutesy, but decided to post it anyway. Like the new gits anime. It's wild seeing Shirow's old style animated again. It's a little hard to follow because of how jumpy the director's style is. Curious if they will keep up the frenetic pace.

crapped out in the spotlight series event today. played elusive otter prowess which i think was the correct choice, the only issue is after testing with friends on the friday and not getting much sleep i ended up playing on autopilot and made a lot of stupid mistakes. honestly really disappointed 🫤

4-0'd our weekly with sultai living end. i was a little bit off on the consistency of the list before after getting more copies of formidable speakers i think that really helped. but the eldritch evolution package felt sweet into its worst matchups. 2 rcqs this weekend so ill post the list then 👍
