"I'll burn through any darkness that stands in my way—nothing can extinguish this flame!"

Some of the main Runhir characters. Athrel,Syeran and Rayeger are the newest, the rest are here since the day I designed Runhir race (: They are top tier ones, with most experience in stealth, fight, freerunning and knowledge of Kryt (only Rokkr and Athrel are quite above with these). I also wanted to show their rifts and how they are unique to each individual. More about these characters in future :)

Runhirs are my complex alien sapient race.

Firstly, thank you for your visit and for reading this, if you do! It's always pleasing to have a slight visibility on socials, but alas, internet is quick and stuff rarely catch our eyes nowaday. Secondly, for those who were already following this tumblr or other medias, you might have noticed i did delete all the posts. Mostly because i felt like i wasn't going anywhere with this blog... Not reach-wise but even project-wise, i felt struggling and felt like even my own interest went flat. Various happenings and emotions took hold of me this year so i felt like i was even losing myself and my bond with my own project. Some stuff went downfall, in some part i teased and wanted to realise. But lesson learned, i'll just not tease before being one hundred percent sure of the happening. With all this said, i do warmly welcome y'all for a new journey, i'll try to make something more convenient for me to post but still catching up your interest! Trying to prepare stuff to post, while working on both drawing & writing on the Rioteers Project as i've done before! Though, with a slowed pace, not overwhelming myself or diving too deep, trying to stay realistic in my expectations! Thank you for reading me and enjoy the new content!

Okay Guy's . New aesthetics. New concept. this is me, giving you what a song feels like inside my body. through words, moods, grief, hope — whatever spills out.

first one below. read it slowly. feel it if you can.

Theme: The Intoxication of a Ray of Sweetness

Masterlist of this Concept

The song we're going to dissect today :

The visual of sound.......................* ੈ✩‧₊˚* ੈ✩‧₊

Emotion that sound gives off.......* ੈ✩‧₊˚* ੈ✩‧₊

There are nights when even breathing feels too loud.

You're lying there, in that room that no longer feels like yours. Bare feet on a cold floor, breath caught on Mari Froes’s voice. The guitar holds you like a trembling hand — the kind no one ever gave you, or gave too late.

Gabriela doesn’t tell your story. It whispers what you stopped saying out loud: the need to feel free, just once, without having to pay for it.

You close your eyes. Imagine another version of yourself. One that isn't shattered. Not at the edge. Someone who wakes up without gathering the pieces. Someone they didn’t force to grow up too soon.

A life where you don’t have to fake being okay just so people leave you alone.

In that version — the one you half-create just to survive — you move slowly. You laugh. Like, really laugh. You’re not someone’s emotional void-filler. You’re someone that matters. You hold a hand, and no one lets go. You don’t hurt yourself just to feel seen. You don’t fake joy to be left in peace.

And still… deep in your chest, something clings.

The will to heal. To love. To start over. To exist for real — not in a dream, but here. Now.

Because with this song playing, you remember:

Even broken pieces can dance.
