King of the dark elves, most powerful mage in all of Svartalfheim.

With his kitty.

“I don’t know how to tell you this, but there’s a dead body in Hallway 12A. Nobody I recognize.”——Lost Night, by Enfilade

Actually Requiem was found lying face-down in the corridor, but first, I think it would scale up the scariness if a lifeless body was propped up against the wall, and second, I wanted to see him sitting cutely like a doll. (Wait what kind of doll? Chucky? )

Trying to depict Requiem, the amazing oc of @warlordenfilade !

“That night, I relocated Elegy’s brain. I keep it in Elegy’s cold spark chamber, haloed in the wreath of tendrils that creates my sapience, protected in a cocoon of techno-organic flesh, guarded by the thickest metal I can grow, supported by the strongest armour plating the Decepticons produce. If I lose Elegy’s brain, if I damage it, there goes my capacity for higher thought—there goes my entire personality—there goes my sense of restraint. A feral and mature sovereign electro-leech loosed upon Cybertron is the no-win scenario for everyone. ”

——Dark Assassin, Devourer of Souls, by Enfilade

So scary yet surprisingly romantic 😭

I mean, Requiem is like an apex predator, who is surrounded by FOOD yet exhibits humanity (Cybertronianity?) and self-restraint, just because of emotions such as loyalty, friendship, or even respectful brotherhood (that lands perhaps a little bit close to love).

Him and Deathsaurus somehow reminds me of the little prince and his fox (I am still crying for the latter pair’s eventual parting of ways). The wonder and terror they both evoke in everyone including the readers, plus the affection and protection for their own people, it’s impossible not to feel moved and love these characters!
