This is my first edit I made today. In this edit, Elsa is shown crossing the Dark Sea and battling the Nokk. I really struggled to cut the different Elsa positions because the pics are so dark but I managed it! I love the result! 🤗

About Seelies, their Palaces in the Dark Sea & how they're Probably Related to Andrius (TL;DR)

Their palaces are in the Dark Sea, where The Seven have no jurisdiction. They brought wisdom to mankind, & probably so to other entities like the Andrius, "the Wolf the North".

Their palaces are in the Dark Sea, & Enkanomiya is also exactly there, but there was no Seelie civilization there; there were just humans from the Unified Civilization as far as we know. It's quite interesting that the Seelie courts are eroded by the time all around Teyvat, but in Enkanomiya they aren't.

For a while, I used to think that the ruins that are around all Teyvat's surface, were the architecture of the Seelies, but this isn't the case at all bc according to the book "A Drunkard's Tale" the Seelie palaces are in the Dark Sea.

And now that we're talking about the Dark Sea and the "A Drunkard's Tale", there's smth pretty interesting I'd like to mention about...Columbina.

In "A Drunkard's Tale" Vol. 3 we learn the tale about a lone wolf, that once wandered in the a "cruel" wasteland; a place that seems to be far beyond the dominion of Celestia, with the remains of fallen gods and others that escaped there after the archon war, (ex. Orobashi).

According to the tale, once the lone wolf passed by a palace where he heard music. Within there, he found a "fair maiden" using an instrument, with a skin "ashen white" & playing a "long-forgotten and mournful melody".

"The chirping of insects on a long-gone autumn night is the chorus of exiles, singing mankind's most ancient song as they live out their plight..." she sang.

"Stripped of all that the body once held close and the soul once held dear, song and memories are all that now remain of yesteryear."

"The last singers, the first Seelie, they played their final tune in the halls of angels."

The Seelies in the area approached the pale white maiden to listen to her music. The wolf asked about the song to the maiden, and the maiden replied "A song of the Seelie".

"Long, long ago, we wrote this song for the human savages. Yet now, we sing it to mourn our own fate."

This maiden was clearly a Seelie who seems to still maintain her human form, & we're told that Andrius received his powers from an ancient god...could this god be the Seelie from the tale? he has a very icy windy ghostly anemo form, just like Seelies.

The twitter user named @nanbeidou7 also talked about this before me.

Here's a link to a thread she did about the topic.

I'd like to also talk about a possible mention of a Seelie (maybe even Columbina, asuming that she's a Seelie), in the artifact set "Adventurer" in the "Plume of Death", there's a mention of an adventurer meeting a "girl so beautiful" that even her appearance felt surreal.

And do you all know what else did the girl had? that's right! a cluster of feathers!! the similarities are too coincidental tbh...but who knows! anyone in Teyvat could be incredibly beautiful girl with a cluster of feathers, right?... right??

Under the Dock

Do you go somewhere and think

“Man, I bet there is a body hidden here”

What does that look like for you?

I found my spot

It is dark

It is cold

It is wet

What would tall pillars make you think;

“You could probably tie something to these”

Maybe? Or not that would be crazy.

The pillars are covered

Covered in oysters

Covered in barnacles

Covered in seaweed

Why does this spot give off this energy

“It feels like a trap”

What is the cause?

Maybe because,

It is dark

It is cold

It is wet

The Death of Sappho

Artist: Antoine-Jean Gros (French, 1771-1835)

Date: 1801

Medium: Oil on Canvas

Collection: Musée d'Art et d'Histoire Baron-Gérard, Bayeux

DESCRIPTION

The painting depicts Ancient Greek poet Sappho's alleged suicide by jumping from a cliff in Lefkada, thus accepting the legendary claim that she took her own life as a result of an unrequited love she had for the young Phaon, who is actually a mythological character.

The figure of Sappho stands out on the edge of a cliff, in a nocturnal landscape illuminated by the rays of the moon, which appears reflected in the dark sea in front of her. The scene seems to anticipate the one illustrated by Italian poet Giacomo Leopardi in the poem "Last Song of Sappho" of 1822. She takes with her transparent veil, her lyre, which she helds high. Behind her, there is a sacrificial altar. In contrast to a static vision of the neoclassical ideal, Gros therefore outlines the traits of a romantic figure, who entrusts the end of his life for love to nature.

You are a bored teenager on the backseat of your parent's car, driving by the beach. And then you see him: A tall, lanky man in a black suit, standing by the shore, occasionally gazing at the watch on his wrist as if waiting for someone. He looks at you. Who is he? And what is he doing there?...
