Going on a date to the ruins of a lost city that was destroyed by the gods themselves, but the place is filled with terrifying lethal crimes against nature, and then your hot boyfriend is turned into a salmon.
I am FEASTING on the bits and pieces Essek is dropping about him and Caleb's relationship and adventures! 🧡💜
And the implications surrounding the fact that Essek was turned into a fish at some point by the raging wild magic in Aeor cured my artblock. 🙏
Essek watching Orym and Dorian fall in love in Aeor and getting hit with his own memories of traveling through the ruins years ago and wondering if there was a future for him and Caleb
This scene inspired me to pick up a pencil after quite some time… it’s no artistical masterpiece but I couldn’t stop thinking about Caleb making awful puns after a certain day in Aeor and teasing Essek with a new decor addition in the towers library…
my thoughts go out to all the mighty nein fans who don't watch/are behind on campaign 3 and are now seeing all the fish!essek fanarts, probably wondering what the fuck is up with that and how did campaign 3 evolve into shadowgast shenanigans
