Inspired by Ace of Swords (Deviant moon tarot)

My million dollar idea

Thinking about Gilbert (Giselbert) and his time as the representation of the Teutonic Knights.

Thinking about how representations like him, of military orders instead of duchies and kingdoms, were seen or treated as a servant of their orders, a servant of God.

Thinking about how Gilbert was expected to be their greatest warrior, their greatest follower, because he was "sent by God" to fulfill the Order's mission.

Thinking about how Gilbert's early introduction to love was through conflict; how he was rewarded when he excelled in battle, punished when he limped home crying.

Thinking about the budding animosity when he sees representation of kingdoms, towns, republics, etc. loved unconditionally by their people while Gilbert literally has to fight tooth and nail about it.

Thinking about the betrayal he feels when his efforts were eventually rewarded with banishment, and orders like him were later on apprehended and burned at stakes.

Thinking about his own mortality and existence, questioning why he couldn't die and if that meant he actually couldn't go to heaven.

Knighthood sure is rough.

Would want this as a poster!! (I love both manet and blue period🙏) Very cute fanart!!🩵(⁠◕⁠ᴗ⁠◕⁠✿⁠)
