A graphic displaying the work of an artist and a writer. The left side features Ryn, a writer who loves the themes, gunplay, & visuals of Marathon. Their writing excerpt reads- "//These early interruptions are unexpected, yes, but hardly large enough to upend the S3 program in its magnificent entirety. You have constructed a vast architecture through which information flows like oil through a refinery, like blood through a soldier’s trigger finger, and its foundations are sunken deep into the fundament of the country from which you emerged. You do not feel confident—confidence is a human emotion—but you have calculated with 99.78522% certainty that S3 will shape your subject’s behavior as you see fit. A single variable, even a volatile one, is ultimately as insignificant as a single nail in an imperial palace.". The right side features Chaos Witch Val, a freelance artist & musician who's been obsessed with Marathon since 2023, whos featured art shows a painterly drawing of durandal from marathon, rendered in strong brush strokes and shades of yellow, green, and blue.
