sure on this shining night

so yeah i love everything about our new little durin!! BUT… (unless i understood it wrong) i don’t like how the writers made out OG durin to be a purely “evil” dragon and implied that he was fully dead… when in truth he was just a scared, confused, lost creature, tainted by the abyss and abandoned by his creator… he didn’t want to be evil. his dying thoughts from the text of the dragonspine spear inspired me to make this piece. i want to believe that a part of OG durin lives inside this durin, so he can finally experience all these happy moments, like singing and dancing with venti and getting along with the people of mondstadt, that he desperately wanted in his first life 🥹
