“…Do I have hair?”

“I must admit that the sculptor is very talented, they’ve gotten all the intricacies of your outfit down, Jaania.”

“Yes, not to mention the skilled magic of ensuring the balance of the fire and ice, to keep them controlled and stop them from affecting each other.”

“I have hair.”

“I must say, this is really quite humbling in a way my first statue wasn’t really.”

“First statue?”

“Ah yes. It was made for my funeral in Falconreach after Nythera killed me.”

“…WHAT.”

“Long story.”

“Hello? Is anyone listening to me? I have hair!”

“Yes Alex, we heard you. Also I don’t remember seeing you wear robes like these.”

“As far as I remember, I haven’t. I like them don’t get me wrong, but I can’t think of where they got this design from. Any ideas, Jaania? …Jaania?”

“What a lovely bit of grass I’m looking at, most fascinating.”

Warlic, about Valen, the Hero, and Jaania: Heroes only come in three kinds: dead, damaged, or dubious.

[hdarkcon]

A Dragonfable AU where the Rose took over Swordhaven and Jaania become Queen. She transformed the former Princess Victoria's soul into her Soul Ally, Hesperrhodos.

[thatvampireenthusiast]

the proclamation plotline is great bc you get to slowly see jaania descend further and further into what one might argue are some Very Bad Decisions and perhaps also Madness

[7yd1a]

Everyone should play DragonFable there's a Wizard Polycule in it

Bonus (The Hero) :

Convergence Part 2 (spoilers)

Let's get into it.

Honestly, I fell in love with this full synchronization animation alone and I can see from the quality, as well as everything that comes after, is the reason why the release had to be delayed.

Truth be told, prior to this release, I was expecting Jaania's fully synchronized form to be quite the visual abomination. What with her soul being in tatters and the circumstances regarding Hesperrhodos' creation. So imagine my surprise to find a certain level of beauty in this form and it's one that perfectly encapsulates Jaania's character.

The way I see it, if Uaanta's transformation was the last stand of a hero offering up all her devotion and faith to her gods through her body and Remthalas' transformation was that of an eldritch monstrosity puppeteering its slave, then Jaania's transformation is that of a scarred woman, hence her face scar being highlighted in the transition, frantically control the order of the very world itself. Her many hands meant either guide or cut away whatever she deems fit in her eternal era of perfection.

I like how in spite of the noble intentions that's clearly driving her, these few lines really reveal the egotism that's mixed up in her reasoning. It's "her" perfect world we stand in the way in and it's our fault for wanting to stop her from a plan that could doom the very world she wants so desperately to protect. And that is reason enough determine that we don't have a future worth preserving.

I love how Draco tried to pull the same little attack on Jaania that they did to Voyna, but she just doesn't even react to it. Never change little fella.

The entire boss fight that ensues after this is truly something. Very thematically fitting in terms of Jaania's character while also somehow managing to be a step up above even the last one in part one. I'd say in spite of it being elevated to the complexity of the Inn at the Edge of Time, it still felt pretty manageable even as a Chaosweaver, so I get the thrill of kicking Jaania's butt as a weaver twice.

In addition, I feel like a lot of the pop up text and status effects that Jaania has, or gives, really cement my thoughts in that she is rather similar to Notha's character, but unlike Notha, who existed on the side of Doom/Chaos, Jaania is the epitome of Order and Destiny. Which makes her vision for Lore all the more terrifying when she shows us what a world of perfect order looks like to her because it's a complete nightmare for the Hero.

A frozen stagnant world, forever kept in stasis. One that keeps everyone from ever being hurt again but one that also keeps people from growing as they should in this world.

Fortunately, we once again prove we are more than a match for Jaania rejecting her delusion of control.

And honestly, this just as much of the sorry sight I expected to be. All that time and effort she put into the Rose, to trying, in her very misguided way, to protect everyone and everything and it's all down the drain. Her hair is almost completely white now, meaning her soul is on the very brink and the people that were sacrificed along the way have essentially been wasted.

One of these days I would like to take a further look into how the Hero views, well, heroism and how they've struggled with because it's an interesting sight.

I'm not sure what comes next for Jaania at this moment. She didn't die in her fight but it's clear her soul is not in good condition anymore. Even if she survives the trek back to surface, the Magesterium made it pretty clear they wanted her in their custody for judgement. Not only that, the judgement that remains back home in Greenguard for her actions and that of the Rose. Even if she's kept from any harsh punishment, where does she go from here? Will she sit in a wallow in misery? Try to atone for what she's done, provided she can be made to see the error of her ways? Perhaps Kara could help with that but beyond that I'm not sure what lies ahead for Jaania but I'm curious as to what comes next. I am satisfied with this conclusion.

However, there's that one little wrinkle to deal with.

THIS BUTTHEAD IS STILL BREATHING AND ABOUT TO DO THE THING!!!

....AND HE'S JACKED. I mean seriously I know the experiments made him strong as hell but good lord! I suppose it makes sense it would end this way though as our band, and even the hero, has no means of actually subduing or harming Akanthus and so it's a race to ensuring that bomb does not go off in the Mana Core as there is still no telling what it might do to the Core though my guess is still that it might corrupt it with doom energy.

As for Akanthus himself, I'm not sure. It's starting to feel like he might actually just straight up and try and bathe in the core itself to connect with it at this point. Either way, this is ending in a titan fight. >:)

We are soon to reach the end of this saga Loreians. Get ready.

A collection of the shitty gifs I made for @7yd1a

[theloverofdragons]

“Today I thought we’d try something new; draw someone you admire.”

“Drawing?” Jaania folded her arms and raised her eyebrow at Warlic, who was standing before them holding sheets of paper and… “Are those crayons?”

“Well we only have one set of magically reinforced pens, and I was intending on giving those to Alex.”

“Makes sense,” Alexander nodded, taking a sip of his tea. “Although couldn’t you ask Cysero…wait nevermind I heard it as I said it.”

“I…okay fine, it’s worth a shot,” Jaania sighed. “One question though; why is Nythera here?”

“I like drawing. I’m allowed to like things.”

“Okay!” Warlic interrupted quickly, passing out the paper and crayons before a row threatened to brew. “No time limit or anything, just have fun.”

**** “Okay, time to see what everyone’s got,” Warlic stood up. “I’ll go first, I drew Lady Celestia. She was a good friend, and very wise, even when we were both younger, and has guided many heroes. Jaania, you’re next."

“I did Trèsjoli Louveteau, the First Lady of the Paladin Order. She stood up for what was right and made Lore a safer place, which is ultimately what we all want.”

“A good choice. Alex?”

“I drew Jaania.”

“Oh,” Jaania picked up the drawing as it to examine it closely, but mostly to hide her reddening cheeks. “Thank you Alex…”

“And finally Nythera…Nythera that’s a self portrait.”

“I am big enough to admit that I often admire myself.”
