#;m.octezuma II#i put his eye's look as in reference to his name's meaning 'he is the one who frowns like a lord'#maybe its all coincidence and im looking toomuch into it god knows#tezca is there mostly as ref to mocte's color palette consisting on mostly yellow and black#and if he is truly meant to be tezca's representation of earth in f.go's plot#there's also this lil fact; mocte had a room that was all pitch black meant for his times of meditation#i kinda doubt his color palette is a reference to the importance of this room to him and the serenity this color gives him but o k#a lot of the portraits and drawings that have been collected of him feature him wearing clothes that have this typeof knot#me thinks that the cloth tied around his waist is tied in a similar manner#the patterns on the edge are similar in an reverted way to the one of his cloak in ref 2#then the collar area reminds me of the collars of aztec warriors#jaguar bc the ties with tezca and the importance of jaguars in general#did u know he had a zoo built when his reign was arround? they held mostly birds but there were a lot of other animals associated with#figures of gods#they were well fed and taken care of however this zoo latergot destroyed once he died#anyways its late BUT YEAH#;about#about#i kinda wanna do this with my ithert s.ervant muses 😳👉👈
