its obvious who the Archmother is based on, but who the Hidden King is supposed to be appears to be a deep cut...

this video contains a lot of firsts for me. i've never written a true video essay like this and i learned a lot about what i will and wont do going forward here. i've also never animated anything ever before so that was a really fun thing to try. i think i wont be making videos this long every month, especially not ones where i need to read a whole book in order to finish the script (my dyslexia hates me for doing that). i'm really excited for what i have in store next, and i cant wait to share it with you all (: 🩷 - gemelli
