Description I'll be scrapping this fairly soon, as I am well aware that these are two very different drawings drawn on entirely different days.

Anywho, I felt like some random exposition for no reason don't mind me.

A somewhat archaic tradition in the world of Primary is that wearing colors of your guardian deity will bring fortune and favor upon your family. It aligns you closer to your god, and as such heightens your spiritual focus and can, theoretically, enhance your magical skills. The tradition has largely fallen away in the more populated sectors of the world, specifically in the capitals and trade ports, but religious centers and the more rural countries tend to follow it pretty strictly.

Kimren's guardian deity is Brèvis, whose colors are navy blue and white. Kimren, being raised mostly by Plix, chooses to wear his colors instead of Brèvis' (both out of resentment towards his father and genuine affection for Plix). Plix's guardian deity is Haenur, whose colors are gray and burgundy. Later in the story, as he learns more of his family's history, Kimren will add in more navy elements.

For random other guardian deity colors:
Rajmarayin (Ellyon's guardian deity) is black and silver, though since he is the guardian deity of the unblessed, who are largely considered inferior, very little wear his colors alone. For example, Ellyon tends to wear the colors of whichever kingdom she is working under at the time.
Brajam (Serine's guardian deity) is purple and white. As Brajam is the godhead persona, those within religious organizations tend to wear these colors.

Blah blah blah I'm done I swear.

Yup, it's one of the new factors of Primary 3.0 or whatever the hell version I'm on by this point. Plix never made much sense as an antagonist to me, so I finally just bit the bullet and made him more of a mentor figure, though not a very good one haha

Ah well that is technically a recent development, haha. And really it's not so much raising as checking up on him, I guess? Plix was friends with Makumé and was aware that he had a kid before Makumé was taken in by Serine, so he made it his duty to find the kid and protect him. But since Plix is a primary he has certain duties to fulfill from a governmental standpoint (Plix in specific does checks on ley line distributions throughout the countries, making sure the flow of magic is steady and activating dead points), so he couldn't really live with Kimren, but he has his suspicions that Serine knowing about him would not be a good thing. But since Serine is a Primary of Brajam, of Mind, Plix can't really tell anyone with a connection to him of Kimren's existence. So Myket is not aware of Kimren either (though he knows and accepts that Plix keeps many secrets from him, as Myket comes into direct contact with Serine regularly).

So every time Plix runs his cycle through the northern sectors, he goes and spends some time with Kimren, training him and teaching him and whatnot. So mentor figure/raising him, haha.

WELL THERE YOU GO YOU MADE ME RANT A BIT xD
