I feel like I have to mention this every time lol. Yes, I will plan to make an actual tarot deck when this is complete. But it's a long way to go so please bear with me. 🥰
The Queen of Wands is a supporting and nurturing archetype, making sure that everything is running smoothly behind the scenes. She is challenging and encouraging, but practical in her views of people and their uses. She will nurture those who will be helpful to her kingdom and to her King, but will not hesitate to weed out those who hinder her cause.
As much as I would have liked to put this as Edelgard and said the black cat is Hubert, I actually have to say Hubert von Vestra is the Queen of Wands himself. As usual, gender expectations are reversed for the Black Eagles, as Hubert is the one that supports Edelgard, instead of a woman supporting a man. He runs everything behind the scenes, including espionage and procuring demonic beasts. While his supports with Bernadetta and Linhardt showcase a caring side to him, it’s still important to remember that he won’t hesitate to dispose of others if he deems them a threat to his King, Lady Edelgard. In addition, he very practically sees citizens as pawns for his and Lady Edelgard’s cause, using them as fodder or shields against their enemies.
I like that inspecting Hubert through this lens allows him to take on some of the gentleness and tenderness that touches him in other parts of the fandom. I think I agree that he is more of a supporting character and a queen figure to the rest of his classmates. I do think that some of the aggression and fierceness of the Wands cards in general doesn’t quite fit Hubert. But the Queen of Wands is described as the “Water of Fire”, so perhaps he is demonstrating the more underhanded and fluid ways that ambition can play out in a leader.
What do you think? Who would be the best fit for the Queen of Wands in your eyes?
This will be the last one for a while!! Next week, March Preorders will start on 3/21 & then run until 3/26. Shortly after that we'll be closing the shop for a break (exact dates TBD. I'll announce it soon tho)
Also! Last call for these maxis with a hem border color. We've got 1 A Size each for Mage & Wizard, and 1 D Size for Sorcerer. In the future these maxis will just have the all-over pattern without the edge color.
