#evo smp

I just saw a comment on YouTube (by someone called purplef0xx mentioning how Etho/Gem/Grian have like different/replaced/missing eyes) that just gave me the random thought of imagining the Watchers being like the Graeae from Greek Mythology where they have one eye that they share among themselves just putting this out there cuz I think it's great fanart idea if anyone wants to try (maybe someone already did this before idk)

I've started watching the EVO SMP to continue on my quest for Watcher Lore and I was expecting to sit back and meander through maybe thirty episodes of Grian Doing Daft Stuff In Old Minecraft before we started getting into spooky stuff. Nope, episode 2, right off the bat: spooky symbols in bedrock and signs that say We Are Watching. Good lord. I am scared already.

Something that I wish was explored more in Watcher Grian content is the fact that the Watchers were always meant to represent the viewers. We all count ourselves among the Watchers' ranks! We are not just passive observers, but rather active players within and without the story on account of that very observance. You, dear reader, are the cosmic horror that your favorite characters are fearful of, the eye they always feel staring at them behind their back. You, fanartist, are the one who forces them to bend to your will, who forces them into impossible situations and laughs at their suffering. You are a Watcher.
