#[ songs of war ]

[sgefrrst]

i added a song shrine into my forever world :)

back when it was releasing, songs of war was a big part of helping me get back into playing minecraft, and i wanted to immortalise that into a world that i love and have worked many hours on <3 the shrine is on top of one of the naturally generated floating islands that i have a lovely view of from my base, and i absolutely adore the overgrown feel to it. i initially had a beacon placed under the centre of the shrine, but i removed it for lack of range. when i get a second beacon though, i’ll definitely put one under the shrine just for visual purposes :)

๑Alright just a heads up, this is gonna be a whole ass rant about Songs Of War๑

I can't be the ONLY one who has a heavy fixation on SoW. Like the animation and voice acting ARE ASTOUNDING. The show was part of my childhood and I loved it. It's a shame that Squared Media(Black Plasma Studios) couldn't work on season 2 & 3, it had good potential. But that's not what I'm going to talk about, I'm talking about the fandom. It's so DEAD, for a show that got millions of views I expect there to be more content about SoW.

I. WAS. WRONG

THERE'S BARELY ANY CONTENT FOR IT AND I AM ABOUT TO EVAPORATE. When I have a fixation, I go to reading FICS about it, specifically a reader insert since that makes it more fun. But when I check there was only ONE (This fandom is so dead it's actually sad)

If I could I would make the fandom revive from the dead, the content posted each year is pretty low for me and usually just a few are public. I'm hoping this can reach other SoW fans who also want the fandom to revive since this is so upsetting Ó⁠╭⁠╮⁠Ò

(Also look at my BBG Ingressus here)

Little note, I know I am a writer and could easily write for the fandom but the writer block is a HUGE thing for me and my motivation SUCKS. Im also not pleased by my writing than for other content written by other people

Hope

An old drawing of Galleous admiring the red poppies that managed to grow after the events of the 1st Great War.

If memory serves me right, red poppies symbolizes hope. It's also one of the flowers in minecraft.

Isaiah 53:1 also speaks of hope of restoration.

Even the wilderness and desert will be glad in those days. The wasteland will rejoice and blossom with spring crocuses.

just realized i never posted this. LOOK AT IT. I LOVE THEM

Thalleous is my favorite war criminal and i always end up drawing him way to young looking. this started as an excuse to give him wringles, baby Senn was kind of an afterthought lol

Thall's braid length is entirely dependent on how much hair im willing to draw. usually not much!

So there’s been an announcement that they’re doing more with songs of war.

There are definitely going to be some stand alone spin-off episodes and they might make a season 2 in future if it garners enough interest.

For those who are unfamiliar, Songs of war is a beautifully animated original fantasy series on YouTube by Squared Media (formerly Black Plasma Studios).

I cannot emphasise how stunning the works building and visuals are. Even if you’re not into Minecraft it won’t really affect your enjoyment.

It got cancelled a while back as there just wasn’t enough interest in it to justify making another series. Most of the original team have left the company now but this new director has gotten permission to work on stuff in the world of Sow.

Please support them by sharing news and watching the video. If you haven’t seen the first season definitely check it out. A fundraiser might come out at some point so keep an eye out if you can donate.
