Oh, so you draw living weapons huh?

Do you ever let them talk? Be depicted as characters instead of props? Give them a chance to be themselves?? Just because the lore says they're alive isn't enough. I want Caliburn arguing with Sonic. I want Galaxia to give Meta Knight sword tips. These are people, not objects, and you should treat them that way.

What is your interpretation of Meta Knight's Sword the Galaxia in your headcanon?

oooh I love Galaxia! It's funny -- she doesn't even really exist in the games beyond being an object with a cool name, but I still think about her lots.

I will occasionally pull lore bits from KRBAY to supplement areas the games haven't explored, and this is one of those occasions. I do change aspects of her lore to make it fit in better with the rest of my interpretations, though, so you won't find any "Photron" here.

I'm gonna skim the timeline so as not to get too bogged down, but there was a great expanse of time between the Kirby universe's creation and the eventual rise (and fall) of the Ancients. This period predated the evolution of Dream Matter-based life, and was therefore dominated by the two lively Matter-types that did exist: Dark Matter, as themselves, and Heart Matter, as puffballs. There are some differences that exist between these early puffballs and the ones that would come later, such as Meta and Galacta Knight, but for the purposes of explaining Galaxia's origins they are effectively the same.

Puffballs of this time period operated under a highly honor-based warrior culture that I have, very anachronistically, been dubbing the "Star Warrior" culture. They were around for a very, VERY long time, and had literally billions of years to create all sorts of secrets that would be lost to the ages. One of those secrets parallels the real-life lost art of forging Damascus steel -- many of the golden weapons that serve as endgame abilities, such as Galaxia and Rainbow Sword, were made using a technique of the Star Warrior culture that has been lost to time. I generally call this golden metal "Heartsteel".

The heartsteel objects forged this way house both the Heart Matter and Soul Matter of a dying Star Warrior, though the latter may deteriorate over time. These objects may also be enchanted to more effectively channel certain types of energy, usually in ways that reflect how the Star Warrior chose to wield magic in life. In Galaxia's case, she favored using magic to unleash fire upon her enemies as a living warrior, so now she channels a sacred flame as a sword that burns all who are unworthy. Also, because the material contains Heart Matter, it is especially effective against Dark Matter-based opponents, as the Matters will "cancel each other out".

In life, Galaxia was one of the most fearsome and clever warriors of her day, and was remembered for her many victories, both in tactics and pure strength. Later Star Warriors effectively deified her through exaggeration through the generations, and the watered-down version of the Star Warrior culture that persisted in the time of the Ancients still acknowledged her as the goddess of victory. However, the fact that she became a sword is long-forgotten; they only acknowledge how she was in life.

It has been, at the ABSOLUTE least, many millennia since Galaxia was forged, and longer since she lived as a puffball herself. Although heartsteel objects like these were super common to make and have in the pre-Ancient days, they are unfathomably rare in modern times, and only Galaxia herself retains the ability to telepathically communicate with her wielder. Galaxia's previous wielder was actually one of Meta's parents, but that gets into OC territory that I'm not sure I want to get into here. Regardless, Meta eventually retrieves Galaxia from where she'd been contained by Nightmare and has been her chosen wielder ever since!

okok so you know that "goddess of victory" that Commentator Dee talks about in the ultimate cup z right

i thought that was oddly specific to put some kind of religious(?) figure as common speech for dreamlanders, but like. what if that was galaxia. it's made pretty clear that galaxia is a she/her spirit/thing/enchanted item, so what if she was the goddess of victory imbued in the sword, or the sword is the goddess itself.

Meta Knight's Journal

The squel

Small warning for Meta Knight going insane

Also MK questions reality hard at the end so,,, yeahh

Day 32

Time as of writing: Some time between noon and afternoon

Weather as of writing: Snowstorm

It's been a month. It's been a Nova damned month since we got here.

I don't know what to think. Should I be happy? Sad? I think I'm going insane here, really!

Nothing matters anymore. Most of the waddle dees have lost hope. Even Bandee.

Kirby should be here by now. Kirby should be here by now. Kirby should be here by now. Kirby should be here by now. Kirby should be here by now. Kirby should be here by now. Kirby should be here by now. Kirby should be here by now. Kirby should be here by now.

It's so cold.

My fire isn't helping at all. Neither is Galaxia's.

She's the only thing keeping me sane. She's the thing that lets me fight against the possession. Their trying to possess me.

It's so cold.

The only rations I have are the GSA rations and Cafedee's cooking. I'm starving, but I can't eat everything in one go.

Will they miss me if I di

The shelter is gonna collapse any minute now. I'm scared. I shouldn't be.

Galaxia is telling me it won't. But the ceiling is creaking so much, it's going to fall.

Galaxia told me she doesn't hear anything. What's real anymore.

Galaxia is telling me not to worry. Galaxia is telling me I'm just hearing things. Galaxia needs to stop lying.

I threw Galaxia away. Good riddance. She was telling me lies this whole time.

Everything that comes out of her mouth is a lie. All of it. She has to stop.

The shelter is going to collapse any minute now. And with that lying idiot inside. Good riddance.

That lying bastard tried to come up to me. Tried to get more lies in my head.

It's telling me I'm not thinking straight. I am. It is not.

It told me I couldn't survive the storm. That must mean I can.

I'm going out tomorrow. And leaving that lying bastard behind.

Good riddance.

Kirbtober day 24 - AU

[azumetapraline]

Galaxia & Lor Starcutter orbs, designed by @giantchasm! 🥰

(I have no idea why I didn’t post the drawing earlier! I drew it in mid-July!)

Long story short, these two were in love looong ago. After unfortunate events, both had their turns in getting transformed into magical objects.

Thankfully two “mature” & “responsible” people found them on their own. Now that they’ve got wind of a story between them, they’re trying to make them TALK. I mean… come one girls, you haven’t had a proper heart-to-heart since you broke up! Maybe the sparkle still exists somewhere? 🤔

at with @miniiieevee !!! love galaxia so much

[rbs appreciated!!]
