First Line Tag
Tagged by @simonnebethel, thank you!!
The first line of Ephemera (book one):
Nikora's hands shook as he cleaned the dried blood off Anahera's arm. He dropped the cloth and cursed. He had to try twice to pick it up.
The first line of Dissonance (book two) (working title):
Nikora's hands were steady and confident as he cleaned the blood off Anahera's cheek. He almost wished they weren't, that they would tremble the way they used to. That it wasn't a muscle memory he fell into so easily now. That he had to stop and think before he moved.
Tagging (again no pressure, and sorry if you've already done it haha) @shadow-of-tea-and-tea @fincheswrites @chaptersbycaz

Ephemer being forced to "kill" his friend (Player) who got "possessed" by a Darkness at the end of KHUX -> Ephemer's descendant Xehanort being forced to kill his friend (Baldr) who got possessed by a Darkness at the end of KHDR.
History repeating itself, and Eph's line is just destined to suffer, apparently.

creating a spreadsheet of the trio's lines in the webnovel vs webcomic (as one does), and. i am on the FLOOR their characterisation differs so much from the webnovel and webcomic?!?!??? 😭😭 they took away all of hestio's flavour!!! and Ephael is a lot more stereotypical sunshine too i am losing my mind
Gone:
In the toy mansion, Ephael said that Tesilid was not just his friend, but his "best friend", so Ailette gave him more food. Hestio got very visibly sad and angry.
Whenever they're in battle, Hestio kind of talks to Ephael like he's a P*kemon ("Ephael, go and bite them!" / "Uh... okay.")
Ephael is pretty quiet and subdued throughout the toy mansion, while in the comic he's very artificially cheery.
ALMOST THE ENTIRETY OF HESTIO'S LINES WHEN THEY SNUCK TESILID FOOD IN PRISON IS GONE?!?!?!?? 😭😭😭😭😭😭 THE VIBES ARE SO DIFFERENT
Webnovel has BOTH Hestio and Ephael handing over food (in the webcomic only Ephael brought food. I dunno what Hestio was doing there.)
ONLY the webnovel has Hestio's extremely cute "What? Are you going to refuse the food because the rules are important? (annoyed but also genuinely scared)" / ".....I thought I'd have to shove the food down your mouth if you refused. Well, eat up."
The webcomic has Hestio suddenly ruin the entire mood by saying "🙄😒 did you know 🤓 the vatican is taking things out on you bc you refuse to kill heretics. also idc if the heretics are actually evil or not, what matters is that the vatican wants to know if youre on their side." like stfu please 😭 In the webnovel Hestio only brings this up because Ephael went "cheer up! if it werent for the city making a fuss, the vatican wouldn't have done this" and Hestio corrected him bc he wanted Tesilid not to misunderstand his situation with the Vatican.
What did they make comic!Hestio so callous for !!!!! 😭😭😭 Hestio is a SOFTIE with a mean streak and sharp tongue!!!

Nether Spring, nature's Queen. My Artemis — Art by Jung Ephraem.
Artemis, lover of woods and the wild chase over the mountains. You'd sprung from seeds of cypress and fragments of flint with a bow and arrow at hand, the Lady of Wild Things, a sui generis born for hunt and chastity alone. You were the syntax polyvalent your father gifted the earth. You raised your quiver and then warriors of men, then killed the ignorant few for their gall towards your storm. You turned boys into girls because only in this way could you spare their innocence. A champion to the masses, Huntress factotum. Boring many a names, they would forever sit on your shoulders like a volley of silver arrows. They would be yours as much as they would not at all be, however merciful, because you would be slain by your own resolution.
Cynthia, Diana, and Selene. If Artemis be thy name, I pledge to you my loyalty. And then you were Hecate (the goddess with three forms), she who became you in the dark. You embraced her as she did you, a passing shadow on the Moon. On earth you were Artemis or Cynthia, in the skies La Luna. Hecate waited in the lower world, and she would wait in the world above when it is wrapped in darkness. An awful divinity, you would be and I would revere your putridity. No longer lovely, nor pressed warm under branches of cypress you considered most holy. Stags and humanity mattered none in the dark.
Hecate of Hell.
Mighty to shatter every stubborn thing.
Hark! Hark! her hounds are baying through the town.
Where three roads meet, there she is standing.
My Artemis. Shall I be the Torch in your heart?
(cr)

This is pretty nothing without context, but:
In the darkness, his fingers--slick and numb and useless--almost missed it.
I have no clue who's done this because I was tagged... a month and a half ago... but I assume your last lines have changed since then- so I will tag @inkhelm, @writingrosesonneptune, and anyone who wants to do this!
