|| Whisperer [Neirthum] ||

Alt. Versions

"I find it funny, that to protect, is in itself, a selfish desire", he whispered with the softness of a gentle breeze, and yet it rang so loudly in their ears.

...

He hummed, "Please. I know you want to rest, so take it", he pleaded, "This moment of respite might not ever return".

For the first time, she remembered him. For the last time, she'll agree.

"I'm sorry for what I did", she apologised quietly in that moment of clarity as her body finally began to fade.

"And I forgive you"

"I had already forgiven you"

An honorary member of Iridisto. I wonder if he ever found peace with the deaths he witnessed.

Notes:

|| Lin Expression Sheets ||

Notes:

The excited Lin I drew is so fucking precious, I need to PROTECT THAT 😭 ← girl who took said smile away from him,,,,

You can rlly see me giving up on his hands lmao

I rlly said give him 3 arms,,,, man why do I do this to myself? Must I suffer with drawing 3 hands every time I include his hands in the scene? 💔

The angry one. Hmmmmm EHEHHEHE

There's 2 confused faces here. One is the one where he's wondering what the fuck the other person is trying to convey and the other one is innocent oblivious confusion

The curious but terrified look one was...um...well ok

Lore Notes:

Lin, despite being 1000+ years old is kind of...emotionally immature at the start, mainly because:

1. He didn't have anyone to teach him emotional regulation

2. His ahh was doing trial and error with the added baggage of guilt because he did end up killing some of his first 'friends' by accident

3. Him constantly looking for knowledge is also partly because his want to avoid mistakes. If he knows how to deal with something, he won't stress out,,,,

So uh yeah

He's aware though and does make a conscious effort to be better

By the end of the story he does grow a little bitter thanks to the Qyi'tyr actually dying out,,,, BUT him finding baby Galei a while later helps with the loneliness,,,,,

Did I mention he was 200 when Zara's whole family and friends died? Yeah he was the cause. He got them in trouble that led to some issues and uh well

Ykno

So he spent 800 years basically sulking in guilt and trying to become more aware of things,,,,,

|| Moe ||

An ever creeping entity. Often bored out of its mind.

Notes:

Mole is now called Moe :D

Much better than the original design I gave it, which was a gelatinous blob creature

Which i have done several times and it was getting repetitive

The 'mole' on its 'face' is a callback to its og name lol

I like how the colour in their cape looks, wasn't supposed to be that way but it looks cool so I'll keep it

OG Mole looks so bland compared to this lmao

|| Lin [GL2] ||

Notes:

I'M SO FUCKING HAPPY RN I MANAGED TO MAKE LIN IN GL2 AND HE LOOKS FABULOUS OMFG AGHHHHHHHH

He looks much better in gacha now, pls do NOT remind me of what his old gacha self looked like 💔

Had to make a custom mouth for him, so unfortunately, since idk much about making custom faces, his expressions are mostly gonna be via eyes(if I use gacha anyway)

IM SO FUCKING HAPPY THOUGH, LOOK AT MY, GLOW UP AND ALL!!!!
