a tribute to the old Wakfu that I trutly loved. rip.
Okay, so my Wakfu Season 4 artbook should arrive tomorrow, and if anyone's interested, I'll gladly share some pictures. However, for those who prefer to wait until they can either buy their own copy or are waiting for their own copies to come and don't want to be spoiled, I will be using tags such as "wakfu artbook", "wakfu season 4 artbook", and "wakfu artbook spoilers". So feel free to blacklist those tags so you won't have to see my posts and get spoiled.
Let me know what you guys think and, if you want me to post some pages, what you're most interested in ❤️❤️❤️
Petition to give Nora this type of pixie cut.
I would never forgive them for giving these 2 barely any interactions together :,) <\3

Chapter 8: Hostile Takeover
Word Count: 28,297
Chapter Summary: "What was supposed to be a success story takes an unexpected turn when Amalia is faced yet again with Efrim's clear distaste for her, much to his sister's chagrin. But as conversations are held, bad memories revisited, and secrets are revealed, Amalia will find out that the most hostile member of the Council of Six's animosity towards her might be rooted in something much deeper. But the real question is, will she be able to come out unscathed from it all?"
NORMALIA SAVE MEEEE 💔💔
Paswg art style is actually really fun, might use it more 😼😼👻
The siblings ever!!!!
They literally carried s4😭 I need more interactions between these three so bad but Ankama straight up ⚰️ one and put the other in cryosleep😀
Ankama better cough up an apology real soon
hello everyone, I'm making this post because I have the impression of being the only one to notice all the weirdness around Amalia and what's more, no one in the community talks about it so I'm lending myself to this mission by listing all that
s1: -She had a prophetic dream where the god Sadida told her to go to the forbidden forest and that her “destiny” was there
-She managed to heal a legendary tree
- She did the impossible (fused with the tree of life, something new in the Krozmoz)
S2:- She literally creates a new species of plant with a tear something that no average Sadida can do.
S3:- She does not age in the time bubble. Many say that it was Oropo who wanted this except that this bubble is xelor magic while Oropo is an eliotrope. So in theory if Oropo activated this spell, Oropo therefore has no control over it (besides it seems illogical since if he would not have wanted to make her age why then destroy her psychologically with his father at the bedside 🤔)
-She knows Dathura's story. So yes it seems strange said like that but Dathura herself is shocked that she knows her story and besides there is a weird shot of Amalia's face when she talks about the sadidas dolls
S4:- Episode 9 Qilby tells him that it is an “artificial flower” (in the french version) An insult which literally means nothing because if he meant that she was without depth, well the superficial term would have to be used and is the exact term in his case (even if I think quite the opposite). Superficial and Artificial are clearly two different things.
And a point that I like to say is that artificial flowers do not wither just like Amalia who does not “wither” in the time bubble 🙃
Here I am speaking in a theory but EACH CHANGE OF ERA and linked to sadidas dolls. To move from the primitive era to the era of dofus it took the 10 sadida dolls, the transition from the era of dofus to the era of Wakfu was made because of the sadness of Ogrest sadness caused by Dathura ….
While I maintain Amalia didn't age because Oropo was the one to set the time trap and he didn't want to see her grow old, serving as foreshadowing of his true nature and interest in her, it is also undeniable that Amalia has to be the most special Sadida around. Greatly surpassing both her father and brother despite all three having the strongest connection to the Tree of Life.
@cocogum and I talked about this in length back in the day. As you pointed out, our girl is surrounded by a lot of unexplained mysticism, so much so, it's not far-fetched to believe she either shares a special bond with Sadida himself, or she's a Divine Doll.
I've joked about this before, but the more I think about it, the more suspicious it is that all characters that have been attracted to her were demigods. If she is no mere mortal, then maybe Yugo, Harebourg, Oropo and Nora were drawn to her due to her divine nature.
(*cough* Which may or may not be something I explore in length in my Divine Doll! Amalia AU *cough, cough*)
And you raise such a great point by saying Divine Dolls have been crucial in the ending and beginning of the different eras! Especially with Dathura now living in the Sadida Kingdom and spending her time alongside the Tree of Life.
As much as the idea horrifies me (as it implies a bittersweet, at best, or tragic end to Yumalia), it's still far too soon to rule out the possibility of Amalia taking the Tree of Life's place as life source to her people, and thus, ensuring their survival after the Great Wave even if their kingdom and the original Tree are ravaged.
And who's to say it won't be Dathura who'll either reveal the truth to her or offer the solution of becoming the next Tree of Life when the time comes?
If we were to be right, then, indeed, Amalia would mark the beginning of a new era.
More drawings of the little swap experiment I'm doing. Its actually really fun to speculate and design :)
Also season 4 centric pieces too
The thing about Noramalia, besides how cute it is to see Amalia being the only Twelvian Nora feels comfortable around and trusts, is that they're 100% that couple that judges you together. Imagine them dealing with Armand and Aurora and rolling their eyes like, "Ugh, straight people..." Lmao
She loves everything romantic as long as it's not about her brother (it's cringe)
So relatable, though 😂
Maybe I'm reading too deep into this, but I get the feeling it's tradition amongst the women in the Sheran Sharm family to wear their hair up in a high ponytail. After all, that's not just how Amalia's mother wore her hair, but her daughter's own princess outfit in season 2 (a clear, more age-appropriate copy of her mother's) included a ponytail as well, whereas Amalia herself used to wear her hair loose when she was in more casual clothing back then.
In fact, whenever Amalia was seen serving her role of Sadida Princess, she was seen with her hair tied up. From her design in the OVAs to her season 3 design, which she kept with only minimum modifications when she ascended to the throne.
And let's not forget, while more practical than her 13-year-old outfit, the whole top and pants combo is the look she wore around the palace, where Yugo went to look for her and ask for help, which already implies said outift was actually her princess outfit, as she is seen wearing it all the time and to all kinds of events, even dilomatic ones, such as the assembly or in the throne room with Master Joris, her brother, and sister-in-law as they listened to Yugo and Nora's case regarding the Nécromes.
(On a meta level, this could also be another visual key as to how Aurora was never the true Sadida Queen, even when Armand was still alive, as she never once tied her hair up, always wearing it loose. Just like she never wore white, one of the Sheran Sharm's signature colours, only red and even black, further making her stand out as an outsider).
I don't know, I just found this to be a fun, little cultural detail. Like how Eliatropes hide their wings even amongst their own kind or how the Osamodas royal family seems to decorate their horns with gold, most likely as a nod to their god.
Gorgeous gorgeous girl/s :> <3

Chapter Summary: "Tensions rise when an emissary from Bonta invites the Eliatrope King, his siblings, and especially the Divine Doll living with them to an official event in Bonta, and the fact that Yugo and Amalia's relationship hasn't been quite the same since they came back from their little adventure certainly doesn't help. But things only get more complicated when the appearance of a new rival makes Yugo's blood run cold."
