Parvena: Bishop of Peaceπ¦π§‘
Interesting facts:
- Parvena is the opposite of Shamura.
- Parvana is a "monarch butterfly".
- Parvena is the second most senior bishop (she is older than the Bishop of Fertility, but younger than the Bishop of Order).
- The cult of Parvena is located on the treetops in the "Red Forest", because the followers of her cult think there are a lot of dangers and enemies on earth, so the cult is located in trees and hidden by dense foliage.
- Parvena, despite her status as an "Elder Sister" and "Second Bishop," is the calmest and most balanced of all, she always tries to avoid conflicts and quarrels in her cult and between her brothers and sisters, trying to get rid of them through words or compromises. Because of this, Parvena's brothers and sisters treat her with kindness and affection.
- Parvena loves her older brother like a Ptah, because he is always ready to protect his older sister and worries about her life.
i was too busy admiring the art style that i missed the BIG ASS WEEZER LOGO OHH MY GOOOD
whats with these heretics dissing our faith
as someone with a lot of experience taking antidepressants and dealing with family members who Do Not Understand how depression works, it really struck me how octavia deals with discovering that stolas has been taking antidepressants.
presumably, he has been taking these for a VERY long time and based on the evidence in this episode, nobody in his life knew about it- clearly not blitzΓΈ or octavia, at least.
i don't see stolas as someone who has been to therapy - this reads to me very much like someone who saw "happy pills" and decided to self-medicate because he thought they would fix him, not as someone who was prescribed a medication and a dose to take (we've seen him downing handfuls of these pills on several occasions in past episodes)
octavia is (understandably) unsettled when she finds this giant box of pills, and despite all her complicated feelings for her father she IMMEDIATELY goes to find him to bring him his pills
octavia is smart!! yes she is pissed off at her dad and this implies that she could have gone to see him at any time when he was calling her, but this discovery kind of goes beyond any argument- no matter how she feels, she ultimately doesn't want stolas to suffer
then we get the big fight scene, which ends with the devastating argument between octavia and stolas where she says "was this my fault that you needed these?"
i adore the amount of nuance in their interaction here for so many reasons, but specifically this vein of "i love you but clearly you don't love me or else you wouldn't be depressed" hits very close to home for me and i love the way it's shown as messy and neither stolas nor octavia really understand the way their words are hurting one another
so it kind of breaks my heart that she closes herself off to him but leaves him with this bottle of happy pills because he does need them. and she knows it, and she cares enough to want him to be happy.
she just doesn't think that happiness includes her, because in her mind she's nothing more than an obligation to him.
ugh the day these two reunite i will be reduced to a pile of mush i just love how complex their relationship is it's so tasty
*sniffs art* ..yeees
The fact that Lamb frees the bishops from Purgatory is quite strange in light of what happened. I don't believe they didn't try to protest, although it's unlikely that their new angelic friend really gave them any choice.

MY AU IS FINALLY POSTED GUYS! XD
Summary:
Ancient prophets, here βfore your land had name
Your time has come to a dooming end
Five siblings of everything but blood
Shall have the crown and take you from your throne
Purple for the one that hangs the skies
Blue for the one that drowns all doubts
Red for the one that shows you the way
Yellow for the one that starves in the land
Green for the last, green for the youngest
Far too young, their innocence gone
Far too young, fate for them is close
Like a moth to a flame, they will come
Together theyβll change the world
May you find your fate, for it always does
OR
Before the bishops of the old faith were gods, they were mortal children, someone must have took care of then, but who?
OR
My take on how the bishops turned into gods <3 only has the prologue for now but I'll soon post the first chapter and hopefully it'll be longer π
lil 'eep
OOOOUUUGHHH
i will literally never get over narinder being shamura's favourite btw.
do you think shamura had times where they forgot what had happened? they become so accustomed to his presence, even if it waned in the centuries past the religious purges, that their first thought is to try to find him. a strange sort of sickness crawls through their skin and clenches at their lungs as they search and only find rooms that have been entirely rearranged and every aspect of narinder scrubbed or scorched or scratched or or or just seemingly erased from existence. and when they finally gather the courage to ask their other siblings just what exactly is going on, they're met with "you forgot again, didn't you?"
