A drawing of Camilla and Palamedes against an ornate art nouveau type background. Camilla and Palamedes are drawn from the knees up. Camilla has brown skin, brown hair, black eyes and Palamedes has reddish brown hair, brown skin, and grey eyes. Camilla is wearing a dark cloak over a light grey shirt and beige pants, and she has a long knife hostered to each trouser end with ropes and straps. Palamedes is wearing a dark sweater and khaki pants, and he has a book holster running down each shoulder, to which are holstered two books each. He has his hands in his pockets, while Cam has her right knife drawn and her left knife is half out of its sheath on her leg. Behind them is a background in greyish blues and purples. On the top left is a wooden puzzle sphere with on wooden piece sticking out. In the middle is a three dimensional S. On the top right is the sixth house skull holding a scroll in its mouth. On the bottom left are flowers half obscured by clouds. On the bottom right are thorny vines half obscured by clouds. There are bone fragments flying everywhere in the background.ALT

the sixth, the emperor’s (t)reason, because i haven’t drawn my faves in a month and that’s illegal

#THE IDEA OF ANY OF THE HOUSES DYING OR LEAVING… #shall the emperor’s strength be killed as the second house perishes on the field? #shall the emperor’s mouth be shut as the line of the Third’s heirs is cut off? #SHALL THE HOPE OF THE EMPEROR BE LOST as the children of the fourth are given away as martyrs? #shall the heart of the emperor be lost to the river! #shall the joy of the emperor die a slow withering death! #shall the forgiveness of the emperor be hard and unyielding as dogma! #SHALL THE REASON OF THE EMPEROR BE LOST AS IT FLEES FROM HIM UTTERLY [x]

well damn @takiki16

wait wait i missed it. what part confirmed anastasia/alecto? that is huge

i personally would not say confirmed, but i took the passages below from Nona the Ninth as a tazmuir-style narrative clue that something’s going on between the two of them. i’ll admit it’s not conclusive though and i fully know other people interpret it differently and that’s fine bc it’s just a ship at the end of the day ¯_(ツ)_/¯

quote from nona the ninth: She had said, (begin highlight) There are almost no beautiful things left. (end highlight) Where is Anastasia? (begin highlight) Let me talk to Anastasia. (end highlight)ALT
quote from nona the ninth: She looked back beyond, and she saw Anastasia, tucked where nobody would find her: Anastasia, all bones. Not really Anastasia. But Anastasia's body without the meat on it, snuggled right into the curve of the rock, ready to close the door whenever it was opened. (begin highlight) she remembered Anastasia. Her vision swam: her heart was in her throat. (end highlight) "Well, happy birthday to me, I guess," sighed Nona. And Nona tumbled forward onto the icy dead breast of the Body.ALT
quote from nona the ninth: Alecto said, (begin highlight)The line of Anastasia is unbroken yet.(end highlight) The child answered, Through sin and iniquity, yes. (begin highlight)Alecto said, I am very sorry about Samael.(end highlight) The child made no answer. Alecto said, I remember my vows. (begin highlight)As I swore to Anastasia I swear to you. I am in your service until you bid me the favour,(end highlight) and whatsoever you appoint I shall perform, and consider the vow rendered. This is what I promised, until such a time as you deal with me as you see fit. ALT

Younger Cam and Pal. Cam is wearing a cropped grey sleeveless training tunic, grey pants, elbow length grey gloves and she had bandages on her tummy and right arm. Pal is bandaging up her right arm and he looks very focused. Cam has brown skin, brown straight hair, dark eyes and a gap tooth. Pal has brown skin, reddish brown hair, and large round glasses whose reflection hide his eyes. He is wearing a long sleeved grey tunic and a grey cloak thrown carelessly over his shoulders. Cam is look at him and saying "it's just my right hand, palamedes."ALT

an art trade with alisandre7. they asked for young sixth house shenanigans. i like to think pal has always been overprotective when it comes to his cavalier.

(check out the beautiful mercymorn they drew for me in return here!!!)

bonus:

The cartoonishly simplified figures of Camilla and Palamedes are standing on a blank background. Pal is holding a roll of medical tape and at his feet are dropped two more rolls of tape. Next to him Camilla is standing covered from her neck to her feet in bandages, so that only her head is peeking out above it. She has brown skin, dark eyes and brown hair. Palamedes is a little taller than her, has reddish brown hair, brown skin, and large glasses that are reflecting the light. He is wearing a light grey cloak, a long grey tunic, baggy pants of a darker grey, and even darker grey boots. He is saying "Acceptable" and has a stern expression on his face.ALT

Panel 1: On the left side is Ianthe. Ianthe has pale and sallow skin, pale blond hair, shadowed violet eyes and a gilded skeleton right arm. she's wearing a light purple shirt and an iridescent robe is haphazardly thrown over her right elbow and left shoulder. she has her skeleton hand up to her mouth and she looks thoughtful, as she looks away from corona to the right side of her. On the right side is Corona. corona has tan skin, reddish-golden hair, and she's wearing a tight-fitting high collar black shirt that shows off her muscles, and a orange coat that's unbuckled and tumbling haphazardly down her arms. There are holes in the tight black uniform-like shirt, through which parts of her skin peek through. She has violet eyes, and looks a little concerned. Ianthe is saying "I lost like, twenty seven pounds" and Corona is saying "Oh my god what is your secret?"ALT
Panel 2: Exact same as previous panel except Ianthe has her skeleton hand bent outwards & says "I got my fucking arm ripped out." while looking very deadpan. Corona looks the same but now she's looking at the viewer awkwardly.ALT

loved reading the reunion of the uh-oh sisters. powerful stuff
