Wips of the same project I think (I no longer know how to draw, what a tragedy)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Both say roughly the same thing but in different ways:
"Lord Demanitus and his pupils decided to trap the great demon Zhan Tiri in the only possible way: keeping her prisoner inside Demanitus' mind. Through their wills and sacrifice the world remains intact."
"Lord Demanitus & his pupils work together to trap Zhan Tiri in the only place she could never escape from: his own mind."
I've been playing too much Hollow Knight. I'll be describing the concept I had in mind under readmore because it's a long-ish post hehahhe
I headcanon that Zhan Tiri's "true form" is her spirit ghost form, so even if her physical body was trapped or destroyed, she could just reform in a new vessel if she had enough magic to do so. So, logically, I made an AU where sending her to the Lost Realm didn't work/couldn't work and Demanitus had to find another way to keep her in check, and the only way to trap a being who can canonly manipulate/enter dreams is by trapping her in your own head. Forever.
It does also remind me of Gravity Falls, hehehe.
This AU would fundamentally change lots of things. The only viable way for them to be able to keep Zhan Tiri trapped forever is if they were immortal, and so far the only ways to do so were to [change bodies with an immortal monkey apparently], [use the Sundrop to stay alive for millennia] or [pledge themselves to Zhan Tiri and become spirits]. I do think Demanitus might be able to use Science™ to put them in a state of [cryogenically frozen], but even then I don't know how they'd stay alive for Eternity unless they were actively using the power of the Sundrop to keep themselves alive.
Zhan Tiri is currently trapped in Demanitus' mind, but he isn't strong enough to keeo her bound all by himself. Hence, the aid of his Pupils is essential for their plan to work. All four of them should be in a state of comatose, as they would be sleeping in the physical realm and Fighting To Keep A Demon Trapped in the dream realm.
For a while everything was perfectly fine; Demanitus and the Pupils were able to keep ZT in check. But, a couple thousand years later, Queen Arianna got very sick while pregnant, and the King felt as though there was no other choice other than use the Sundrop to save his wife, despite being warned not to... Little did he know that by removing the source of power of the Dreamers (yes I am calling them Dreamers too), he'd be unleashing not only the Black Rocks, but also Zhan Tiri herself.
Isn't that just so fun?
The other massive change to the story is Cassandra. If Gothel is in a state of comatose, basically, as she's helping her master and pupil fight a demon in the dream realm, then she wouldn't be able to make Cassandra at all. So, either Cass outright doesn't exist, or she is the daughter of someone else. My vote is to make her Edmund's daughter. Moon child!
Maybe I'll play around with the concept another time. For now this is what I had in mind!
