Dark son, Gwyndolin
Quick sketch of a very normal Cleric who lost his M’lady in a very normal and not suspicious way.
I’m thinking about how Artorias had ‘not a touch of dark’ in him and thus was taken over by the abyss. Because I, and I assume most people, immediately took this as ‘Artorias was an extremely good and perfect person and thus was easily corrupted.’
But now that I think about it, since the dark is humanity, perhaps it can instead be interpreted as Artorias having lost all of his humanity through service to Gwyn.
Not necessarily having become evil, but just numb to all the atrocities he had to carry out for the king to keep his power.
If anyone knows about how this line is translated in other languages I’d be curious to know which interpretation it leans towards, especially in the original Japanese.
I’m replaying ds1 with a friend, here’s something spawning from my rage this session.
Enjoy!
I thought this looked like a lot of fun, hopefully I can push myself to finish it!
Suggestions are okay! But I’ll probably only do Elden Ring and Souls characters.
