hello ! i saw ur cute chibi lilia (DEVOURS) from one of your oc arts and omg! anan intrigues me a ton…ur intro post abt him states he’s from a fallen kingdom, i’m so interested in the kingdom’s tales! like its culture, what’s it inspired by, etc etc and maybe why it’s fallen? if u don’t mind these questions ofc <3
HELLOOO AAAA TYSM FOR THE ASK!! And I’m happy you like how I draw chibi Lilia hsjjsjhdjj🫶🫶 (I’ve been following you for a while and I see you liking him 👀✨/lh)
This is a really good question!! I’m still building/shaping what the homeland is like right now, but I got some details down! The Homeland finally has a name now: Attidaya, but people usually call it East of Scalding Sands!☀︎︎ (the name comes from อาทิตยา which is a synonym for the sun! It’s an old word I think, so I don’t hear people say it often— maybe in poems they do.)
Since my OCs are based on Thai literature, the homeland will also be based on Thai culture!
I made some notes on what Attidaya has that other lands don’t, which are Yakshas! Yakshas appear a lot in Thai literature (maybe some, but the popular works have them!)
There’s water nymphs here, a bit uncommon but they’re there! They give off a more pond-ish, swampy vibes— but they’re really pretty! I haven’t designed them yet thooo :,))
Also a place that has merpeople! In Thai literature/mythology, mermaids are usually top naked and wear lots of gold jewelry. I tweaked those details by removing it (I do not wanna draw top naked people💀🖐️) but kept the same design of the tails!
As for why it’s a fallen kingdom, OHOHOHOHO just wanna start by saying that this is a sneak peak to the big project (which will be a comic) that I’m working on!🕺🫶
Back in ancient times, around 1000 years ago, Attidaya was known to be a very prosperous land.
No one really knew what happened to the fall. And there were many rumors speculating around this topic until one day it became a taboo.
However, everyone can agree on one thing that could possibly relate to the fall of the kingdom; a segment of the country. The only remains of that entire segment is burnt remains, and ash covered soil. Nobody goes there, but it’s not forbidden to visit. Though, you might get some strange looks if you do visit.
Everything was burnt to ashes there. Well— maybe you’d see some pieces of wood standing or a pile of burnt houses but yeah.
Till today, no one including people (or should I say Yakshas) from Attidaya knows what happened. It’s like a big question mark for the topic. Many theories are floating around from time to time, but people don’t usually speak up about it.
✰ the lore may be changed since I’m still shaping the whole plot up!! so when the comic releases, some things might not follow what I typed in here(⊃。•́‿•̀。)⊃
