Foundation 1.08 "The Missing Piece"

First Ice

The early light of dawn illuminates ice forming at the edge of this pond in Vermont. Caught after a frigid mid-November night, the ice is some of winter’s first. The interface between seasons reflects the interface in water phases. (Image credit: A. Raeder; via CUPOTY) Read the full article

media with healing magic really ought to get more in the weeds about it tbh

get kinda Icky and Medical about it, how does the healer stitch flesh and blood vessels and nerve endings back together, does it hurt when those nerves reconnect? is it euphoric? is it a little bit of both?

if the healer can manipulate the living body like that, what stops them doing it in reverse? can a sufficiently skilled healer yank the nerves out through a victim's pores?

if 'necromancy' exists as a concept in the setting: how is that any different? should it be? is schlorping a severed limb back onto its owner's body _really_ meaningfully different from resurrecting the whole body as some kind of undead creature?

can healing magic be used to do ~weird shit~ with the endocrine system of a person? could a healer just juice someone with a shitload of estrogen, for fun or pleasure?

I was going to post this for Cloud's birthday, but well, it is what it is. Belated happy birthday little dude ‧₊˚ ☁️

As always, prints available at INPRNT

☁️✨🩵 Inspired by scenes from FF7 Rebrith and also an homage to my last Cloud piece after Remake [x]. I personally STILL love the direction they are taking the story! Agonizing wait for part 3...

reference sketch for chapter 5 of At Dawn.

lowkey love the visual symmetry you always get because they're opposite-handed. did fuck up the height difference though - we're gonna say Cloud's in the foreground

I originally called this 'a gently Sefikura epilogue' and then went and sketched out 10 chapters and now it's looking like an *aggressively* Sefikura epilogue haha. (Note the ratings bump.) We start with a speculative stab at the Remake/Rebirth universe final battle and go on from there with some ✨Cetra magic✨ and eventual warm fuzzies.
