Ruan Meili-Jia

I HAVE FINALLY DONE IT! I have drawn Meili-Jia in a way that pleases me!!! And she looks good! :D

Here’s baby Bik!!! Yes, she exists in the FoTE universe. But instead of being the Emperor’s baby, she’s Yuan Jing’s baby! (Since Meili-Jia is technically not a concubine.)

I know that this system is in place in the game so you can, you know, KNOW WHAT THE BABY WANTS/NEEDS. But what would be more accurate is one word sentences for food and play. (It would be something like “mik” for milk and “drum” for play.) Everything else could be crying and gestures. While every child is different, body language is pretty telling. Bik holding up her arms and looking up is pretty universal for carrying or hugs. Her crying between nodding off is for being tired, and scream/crying and rubbing where it hurts is an indication for being hurt or sick.

But at least it’s not in the same place as Royal Chaos, where the 14-month-old is already toddling and speaking full sentences. Babies typically develop speech or walking first, and then work on the second when they have a good hold on the first. But if a child hasn’t developed either by the age of 2-years, it’s a good indication that something isn’t right. (For example, I didn’t walk very well until I was about two and a half, and this was because the bones in my hips, knees and ankles are all twisted inward; so I had zero balance. Second example, I didn’t speak until two because of my learning disability and autism.)

So, I got this book from the Library because it looked kind of interesting. (I wasn’t sure why it was in the adult section, but whatever). And I started looking through it. Each page has a picture/painting of a famously rebellious woman through out history. But one seemed familiar.

Now, I suck at remembering names, but I was positive I had seen this name before. So I decided to look on a certain app. And low and behold, I found it:

She is one of the legendary hero’s you can obtain in Royal Chaos. Now, before I was like “Eh, she’s pretty, but she seems like a lot of work to get…” But I gained MASSIVE respect for her after reading her story. (Which I’m gonna sum up because like hell am I gonna type all that up.)

So, Wu Zetian came to the emperor’s harem at 14 and climbed her way up to being a Consort. Then she killed her baby daughter and framed the current Empress at the time who ended up being executed and replaced by Zetian. After her son became Emperor and she became Empress Dowager, she over threw her son and his wife to be the sole empress of China, thus creating the Zhou Dynasty at the age of 65. She then recruited soldier and other staff based on their talents rather than their birth right.

I started following Xiran Jay Zhao because she made her channel to critique the “new” Mulan movie. And I have never regretted it.

Ming Dynasty Hanfu | Plum Blossom | Beauty

‘Cause this movie is a rainbow of beautiful

Even one of the antagonists is pretty

Royal Chaos wishes it was this pretty, dude.

I’m aware that I’m a year late to this party but screw it, it’s pretty and I’m happy I watched it!

Minor spoilers ahead, nothing really plot spoiling more than just world building.

I got bored and decided to make a gif from battle scenes.
