Inktober Day 31 2023: Beast! A Drawing Of A Chimera! I Don't Think I Have Drawn A Chimera Before, Surprisingly.

Inktober Day 31 2023: Beast! A drawing of a chimera! I don't think I have drawn a chimera before, surprisingly. Inks: Diamine Autumn Oak, micron brown and sepia. 

really really love how Destiny handles the topic of redemption and redemption arcs, because Destiny doesn't even bother with the question of "Have they earned it?" and instead asks "Do they want to change?"

For all the chances Calus has been given to turn back on the path he's on by us and even his own daughter who he abused, he never does. He's stuck in his ways and adamant that he's correct and dies for it, forgoing all the chances he's been given. Savathun was given a literal second chance with becoming a lightbearer, but chooses not to change a single thing.

Meanwhile, Eramis seems to be taking that chance (albeit very slowly lmao). She's at the other end with Calus during Beyond Light, but the deeper she finds herself in with the Witness, she starts to realize this isn’t what she wanted at all (personally I believe it started with seeing her dead eliksni friends being turned into scorn as a “gift” but it could easily be a multitude of things) and she takes the hand that Eido and Mithrax hold out to her. She’s done horrible things, of course, but it wouldn’t be a redemption if she hadn’t. Eramjs just needed to realize what she’d done and have the capacity to change.

It is really sad hearing about the layoffs over at Bungie. Good luck to all of the amazing people who were let go and have made Destiny a great game over all these years! Hopefully you find new work quickly.
