Next, "die" does mean "day," though nominative singular is "dies," i.e. "dies irae." It could be conjugated "die" if it was in ablative or locative case, but "die ad die" would mean something more like "day to day." "Ad" is in a "to" direction and "ab" is from, i.e. "ab urbis," and ablative case is used to indicate the movement of a thing. In short, "by" is not really a way to translate "ad"; we might want "per" here? (Through, by means of, etc.)

I'm sorry, I never noticed how FREAKING COOL Jinu is here!?!?!?!?!?!?!

HIS EYES GLOW YELLOW WHEN HE ATTACKS.

HE'S GRINNING LIKE A PSYCHO.

AND HIS HANDS TURN INTO CLAWS.

I LOVE WHEN PEOPLE'S HANDS TURN INTO CLAWS THEY'RE MY FAVORITE FIGHTERS.

Silly Trahearne & Malyck sketch to warm-up my hand. Just for fun/my personal amusement, don't take it too seriously. :p

-> I have made a Google Docs compiling a list of works posted by Arena Net employees on Art Station! <- It includes model sheets, early concept art, 3d models, you name it!

I compiled these for myself and my friends at first, but I thought I might as well share! Hope it's useful to someone or that you learn something new about the behind-the-scenes of Guild Wars 2. If you have any suggestions to add and see any mistakes as well feel free to throw a DM!

If the Golden Honmoon was ever achieved, it probably wouldn’t know the difference between demon and half-demon. It sees what it’s meant to banish and forces all of them below the Honmoon. Rumi could’ve ended up on the wrong side after spending her whole life building the very thing that sent her there. So much self-sacrifice, for a goal that damned her, and Rumi will only blame herself for not being human enough to be spared instead of realizing it never mattered in the first place. And a lone Hunter in the demon realm, right after the Honmoon is sealed? That’s, unfortunately, the perfect scapegoat. Even without Gwi-Ma ordering retribution, many demons would want it anyways.

On the flip side, if Jinu got what he wanted and lost such a core memory of himself? Forgetting his shame and god knows what else Gwi-Ma decided to wipe? Probably would have some pretty drastic changes in personality. How much would Gwi-Ma would take in response is another thing, because if he can remove memories, why not cause Jinu to forget the things that make him human? He asked for it, didn’t he? Why not take advantage of a newly mind wiped Jinu and mold him into someone loyal to him? Why not do whatever he wants? Jinu could be free of the shame that haunted him for centuries, but god knows what mistakes and vulnerabilities that would open him up to in return.

Two goals that could’ve (and probably even would’ve) gone very poorly for them but they were chasing anyways. And two goals, with each other’s influence, they learned to let go to embrace better things (change and acceptance; forgiveness and redemption).

Imma be real they were so extra for singing Jinu's Lament / Hunter's Mantra. And waiting for the most dramatically opportune time to crash the party. Like Rumi ily but I swear to god everyone was about to walk into fire

Also not her keeping her demon eye out for a good 45 seconds while giving Gwi-ma the light of day when she could've reverted at any time. Just to bait and switch him. As with Jinu mocking him. Lmao Bonus:
