Soooo... funny story.
Given how Silver Eyed Warriors seem to always have strong symbolic association with Death, I was thinking about how what we now know about Summer could play into that trend. Particularly her weapon, which we now know is named 'Sundered Rose'.
Now as I've discussed in previous posts theorizing that Summer was at least partially a Sniper much like Ruby, the rifle portion of SR definitely has symbolic association with Death. Just look at how many famous snipers throughout history have been given monikers that include 'Death' in some way.
That just leaves the Axe portion of Sundered Rose. So what possible association would an axe have with Death?
Well, I can think of one way...
I suppose it shouldn't be TOO surprising that the mother of our Little Red Reaper would have an Executioner vibe.

"Is all that we see or seem, But a dream within a dream? " Edgar Allen Poe
I wanted to play around with the symbolisim around moths, to represent a peaceful slide from soft dreaming into the rest of death.

I haven't painted for fun since March 2022. The image is a bit symbolic.

"Broken-column gravestones representing an early death by accident were a distinctive feature in the cemeteries of mining towns" (Jalland 2002:279).
Photo was taken September 2019 at Beechworth cemetery.
The inscription reads "In Memory of John Henry Gray of Beechworth, born at Hamilton, Canada West 1st April 1830, Accidentally Killed at Chiltern 7th June 1861, This monument was erected by his friends resident in the Beechworth district"
