Description
Under the bark, into the tree
There you return
There you shall be
Blood to the core, pearl on the leaf
I wait for you
Return to me
When you're gone to the roaring clouds
Rain over me
Rain over me.
Funeral theme today. Not specifically linked to an Halfway Home event (even if...). I headcanon salarians to wear dark green during those occasions (blood is a good way to represent both life, death and a cycle idea), at least for important clan members, with a lot of floating veils. I have a lot of headcanon when it comes to death in salarian culture, and I went deeper with the idea of cycles and reincarnations in their religion by linking it to the water cycle; the huge evaporation from tropical forests, and then the diluvian rains as a way for spirits to reincarnate on Surβkesh, hopefully to a higher state.
Quite a simple, roughly-made sketch, but I wanted to get it off my brain. Hope you're all well !

Interesting concept to the Salarian culture. I like your thought process here!

This is so pretty, very melancholy. And I love your headcanon about reincarnation! I'm really looking forward to reading Halfway Home someday when you post it. I hope you're doing well. C:

Thank you so much. <3 I've been making significant edit progress lately, so while I'm afraid I won't manage to post it by 2018 like I expected, I aim for a second draft completed by december.
I'm doing quite well right now, I hope it's the same for you !
