#wanting the deities to reside in a different realm altogether

[tvrningout]

here's some lore regarding eyða that you would just never known unless the deities themselves told you <3

eyða is the only deity that came into being at the same time as sunna. whatever caused sunna's creation caused his, too, and he is the only deity that can truly be considered sunna's equal. her children have always failed to kill or subdue her, but eyða would not have the same trouble.

he was ( and i suppose still kinda is ) a patient, understanding person before endir's birth. he knew his sister would regret killing him, knew that her actions did not hold true malice, knew that it was only a matter of time before she brought him back and apologized. but then she never came, and a castle appeared in the spirit realm. endir appeared. eventually, eyða understood that he was never going home. he understood he was replaced and betrayed and thus became bitter and resentful.

the spirit realm is, in truth, eyða's domain. it is constructed from his soul's essence, and endir's castle splits it in two. one side is tainted by eyða's darkness that grew and festered once he realized what sunna had done. the other side is untouched and where souls waiting to be reincarnated reside; should endir's castle ever fall, it would be consumed by eyða's darkness within minutes, and its residents twisted into dark spirits and fiends.

endir is literally eyða's replacement. sunna eventually came to understand that death must exist, but her shame and pride and fear prevented her from simply facing her brother. this betrayal is, in part, the reason that the spirit and mortal realms must endure the evils of dark spirits. any souls who resided close to eyða were tainted alongside him.

to be specific, eyða is the god of destruction, death, and the end, whereas endir is spefically the god of death and the afterlife.

eyða does not have a physical body nor contact with the mortal realm, but he is a god like sunna, and like her, he is able to influence the mortal realm to an extent. when a great calamity occurs or a mortal falls to the temptation of violence/destruction, it is his doing. hurt and filled with an old darkness, eyða wishes to bring an end to sunna's beloved creations -- the world and all its inhabitants.

i'm contemplating that it is eyða who edmund makes a deal with, possibly promising to become a vessel for his soul once edmund dies. i can't remember if i talked about this here yet bc it's a recent edit, but edmund is a vampire, so he would think that he's tricking a god into a deal that only he would benefit from. maybe it works or maybe it doesn't... i'm undecided bc i do want eyða to be the true big bad, but he might be an atagonist and conflict for another story :' )

   OKAY BUT CONSIDER THIS A COMPREHENSIVE EARTH VERSE                                                                  POST.

                                                      _____  . ( 🞮 ) .  _____

An Earth verse exists just to make interactions with ‘average’ muses more easy--  however, my kiddos still aren’t human.  I came up with a whole crossover idea that basically stems from my central-plot muse, Jon Valor, a muse you may know if you followed me over on forvalor.  Though he isn’t centre-stage anymore as a muse, he’s still had one hell of an influence on the realm that my kiddos reside in, and he’s exactly how I can make an Earth verse work:

Basically, after completing his journey around TGU, Jon was granted the ability to travel interdimensionally from a deity.  Though he has grown to control these powers, there are still unavoidable blips that occur because of the fact that he shouldn’t technically have these powers at all  (  how fitting that they were given to him by Crow, the God of Chaos  ).  These blips are unintentional, but they happen regardless because of the gravity of these abilities.  Unwittingly, Jon alters the world around him as he travels, accidentally messing with time and space and the concept of world barriers;  creating residual portals that lead the average Joe into a different plane of existence altogether.  The one that opens up in Huron just so happens to go to Earth.  There’s no rhyme or reason for it;  maybe something loose like “Jon has travelled Earth before, therefore that gateway exists in him” but nothing factual.  It’s also pretty obvious that Huros aren’t human, but only because of their horns;  ironically, they mostly resemble people despite them being from another plane of existence altogether.  Like I said though, their horns give them away in most cases.

I’ll mess around with technicalities, but basically:  I WANT THREADS/RELATIONSHIPS WITH EARTH MUSES TOO, AND IF AN EARTH SETTING IS MORE CONVENIENT FOR YOU THEN I CAN MEET YOU IN THE MIDDLE!

QUOTE/SCENE

Jing Mi: That one’s so ugly. Why did you bring it here also? Phoenix: I feel that one is the most beautiful of all the Phoenix lanterns, because it contains our memory. Jing Mi: This is the memory of Saint Girl and King Yi. [pause] What a beautiful view!  It’ll be great if we can drink some self-made osmanthus wine. In fact, before I descended to the mortal world, I buried some osmanthus wine I made here. Phoenix: I dug it out several days ago. Let’s try  your wine today. [next scene] The wine you made is indeed savory and mellow. Jing Mi: I must have some skills amongst the six realms. Why are you staring at me like that? Phoenix: Its great that I don’t have to look at you through the veil. Jing Mi: Isn’t it beautiful?

STORY

Ashes of Love is essentially a love story and its where it thrives at its best. Much like the structure of 2017’s Eternal Love (review) and background, this one is set a little different  in the actual fairy world where this one has six realms however, the Sky realm is still the highest one (as it usually is) and the story resides in these different deity/fairy ranging from flowers to nocturnal creatures to celestial creatures and all kinds of animals and even inanimate objects. In terms of creativity, the story is full of them and that is one of the many highlights of this one and can bring so much fun to this as it makes for some leaps of beliefs but in a fantasy world like this one, its more about learning about it first. And that is a lot of the charm especially as it starts off fairly light-hearted and fun.

The realms here are really where the many past dilemmas have ignited from the past generation between the Floral Goddess, Heavenly Emperor, Water Immortal and all the other people linked to them. Its created essentially what happens to Jing Mi to have been given the Unfeeling Pill when she was born to prevent her from meeting her curse of love with the first 10,000 years of her life, which ends up being the catalyst of all the events that end up happening as misunderstandings happen as the truth unfolds. But that said, each of these realms of the three focused on among the six is different in its own way and has its own traits reflective of the place but yet still has their own good and evil characters.

At the end of all this, between war and feuds and misunderstandings and realm battles for power, it all dials down to the romance and the love triangle between Jing Mi, Phoenix and Runyu instigated by jealousy and unfairness on one end and then creating revenge and hatred, making things worsen. Its all a story of the basic philosophy and belief in Chinese that what is meant to happen will happen regardless of how you plan on changing its course, that act alone is also destined to happen. Also goes along with you reap what you sow at the end of the day especially as what is given off from one generation can affect its next. Its all very common plot points and themes in ancient Chinese fantasy TV series as Eternal Love has about the same kind of plot point (as an example since its the other one in the same genre). What does work here is that once you get past those similar plot points and embrace what they do different in building this new world and its characters, Ashes of Love has a stronger bond with its love story and leads (for myself) whereas in comparison, Eternal Love is entertaining well-rounded but perhaps didn’t quite connect as much in terms of the main leads and their love story. I don’t mean to compare but I did watch them almost back to back.

Before we jump to pacing, I need to mention that the costume designs here are really nice. There’s a lot of thought of each one from the Birds Realm to the colorful Flower Realm to the dark Demon realms outfits as as well as the gold and white and more royalty colors in the Heavenly Realm. Its one of the elements that make me love watching Chinese Fantasy TV series. The costumes and the hair ornaments and hair styles are just so beautiful! While I’m talking about this, I do have to mention that when they do close-ups of the props, fake flowers and such, it is pretty apparent, maybe one of the lesser elements of this series. But then, I guarantee you that there is one “sex” scene in this (its public TV so nothing explicit) and its filmed so poetically and beautiful that I was really impressed by the whole thing especially when you remember the true forms of the leads on hand.

LENGTH/PACING

Episodes: 63 Episode length: 40-45 mins approx.

Its incredible how long Chinese TV series are sometimes especially these big production Chinese fantasy ones. Ashes of Love is surprisingly long at 63 episodes and yet, the script is done so well that the story progresses in phases that gives time for each stage of these characters to grow and develop individually and together in their different relationships, friendships, family, brothers, etc. It doesn’t take a break from this other than maybe the secondary couple from the demon realm which ends up being a rather touching story as well by the end.

Looking at the phase, the first part (as I mentioned) before is about the meeting between Phoenix and Jing Mi and her introduction from the Flower Realm to the Heaven Realm and gradually the reveal of her true identity as well as her growing relationship in their few hundred years as the helper and disciple of Phoenix. As her true identity gets revealed, it jumps into the next phase of the story where it shares about the past and the characters involved and what actually happened, throwing the hatred of the Heavenly Empress and her desire to split up Jing Mi and Phoenix while Phoenix’s brother, Runyu gets pulled into the mix and he learns about his mother and it builds on his revenge and his plot slowly conspire. Things gets more messy here as this also get intermitted with Jing Mi’s mission to become an immortal by going to the Mortal Realm to experience the suffering of mortal life to gain knowledge where she ends up connecting with her feelings more as a turn of events takes Phoenix to have a rather intense romance. Finally, the third phase appears after all the plots of phase 2 unravels and Jing Mi unexpectedly breaks the Unfeeling Pill’s effects and realizes her real feelings and makes up for her mistakes to Phoenix. That turns into the most painful, emotional and heartbreaking moments of search and hopelessness and this last part is just such a ode of how the beginning builds up its characters and relationships so well that this part ends up working a lot. (I mean, I bawled my eyes out a ton in the last 8-10 episodes or something)

CHARACTERS/CHEMISTRY

Leads: Jing Mi & Phoenix

Ashes of Love takes a lot of time and attention on building these two characters. Its great because the focus never quite leaves them even when they are apart and doing their own thing. There’s a lot of factors that work here. The first is that its not dubbed voices and the actual actors are voicing these characters because both Andy Yang and Allen Deng are really talented actors and in their respective roles as Jing Mi and Xu Feng (aka Phoenix, as I keep referring to him), they are incredibly convincing and hard to not ship them, to be honest. These two characters are strong individually as they both have their own family, relationship and realm issues to deal with and consider in all their choices and their own secrets to uncover. Its what makes their love story so heartbreaking and bittersweet altogether because each of their own issues and it all comes down to Jing Mi and the Unfeeling Pill that stops her from realizing her own feelings until its too late which makes their relationship take a very heartbreaking turn of events. The chemistry between these two characters are fantastic especially in some scenes of how the director uses close-ups to the dialogue around them where they both are able to act with their eyes and interpret some genuine feelings without saying anything.

Brothers & Family Feud: Phoenix & Run Yu

All royalty has their own conflicts and Phoenix’s family is the Heaven realm’s family which creates all kinds of crazy as the Heaven Emperor reveals to be a rather unloyal man where his past creates the Empress’s hate and jealousy making a lot of issues become unfair to the older son, Runyu the Night Immortal. What starts off as a rather good brother relationship despite the parent issues ends up turning sour as Runyu’s character ends up having a subtle villain type of change full of plot and schemes, creating this character that flips from the nice guy at the beginning.

Love Interests, Villains & Other Characters of Interest

Love Interests for Jing Mi is mostly Runyu as well as some other characters that don’t really have too much to mention however the main villains of the series is one, the Heaven Empress, aka Phoenix’s mother (as mentioned before because of jealousy) and the second is Phoenix’s “cousin”/crush who likes him a lot and believes she is the one destined for him and does increasingly evil acts. The two villains in the end are the main cause of Phoenix’s “demise”. Everything comes in full circle in Chinese philosophy and nothing proves it quite like how TV series stories work. You can’t say these two villains don’t do a great job. Empress is portrayed by 90s Hong Kong TV actress Kathy Chow who does a fantastic job that its hard to not dislike the character much like Faye Wang as the love interest who plays on the more annoying side of things.

Of course, the more fun additions do go to the Green Snake and the other colorful character of the Flower Realm just like the Moon Immortal (Phoenix’s uncle) who are comedic but in desperate times, knowledgeable and contribute to the dilemma in their own ways. There’s a lot of characters in Ashes of Love so its hard to talk about all of it.

OVERALL

Ashes of Love is a really great series. Its one that takes its sweet time to move through its different story levels to gradually connect with each of these characters as they develop and learn about the different secrete in their life, especially with the main female character, Jing Mi. The magical elements and this new world and the possibilities gives it the space to believe in all the twists and turns and thats because its already given it such a creativity to begin with which also sparks some deeper thoughts on how certain plot points would work but never quite doubt its possibility, leaving space for the audience to draw their own conclusions. The different worlds have beautiful CG effects that make them unique as well as their own kingdom and rules as well as different worlds and their feuds with each other.

Aside from all that is crafting these characters that work so well on their own in complexity. Having 63 episodes to do it definitely feels like it would be a drag but it isn’t most of the time because these characters need it and its because of that, it makes especially Jing Mi and Phoenix’s story so much more emotional to watch whether its happy moments to the extremely heartbreaking moments. Fantastic series that makes me want to watch and rewatch and notice those little story plot details more.
