Description Escape From Nevara: Edward End.


Allow me to explain.

commissioned me to draw Ysef interacting with Edward somehow. It could have been anything from a full out battle to the two just insulting each other until the sun went down. I gladly took up the offer.

And then I saw that 's 2 year anniversary was coming up, and I was hit with a nostalgia bomb. I told Kalkie that, if I had been able to go far in EFN, I really wanted for Ysef to be Edward's 'final boss'. But this didn't necessarily have to be the final round. This could have been round 4, or even 3, I didn't mind.

I wanted to play to lose.
Edward is not a character who deserved to win EFN, and I would much rather watch my favourite combatants than knock them out of the competition.

That doesn't mean I didn't want to be a suitable opponent for Ysef, though.
Now, of course, a weedy left-handed Prince with a rapier was doomed the moment he stepped in Nevara, especially if he were to go up against a centuries old Overlord with enough power to bring the world to an end.

So I needed something more potent.

If I had managed to complete my second round, Edward would have been possessed by a Nevaran creature called Vex (actually a monster from a different project of mine that I dragged into EFN); Vex feeds off of negative emotions, hate in particular. So, Edward was an ample vessel.

Hence the Eldritch abomination monster exploding from Edward's face there.

Maybe he even managed to ditch the whole misogynist act in the end, too.


Again, thanks to ~kalkie for being so patient with me, and allowing me the chance to put an idea that I've had in my head for two years to paper, haha. This was great fun for me, and I hope you like this, too.

Peace.

Freakin' Nostalga bomb is right man. Looking at this though, I can see how much you've improved since then. This would have been a round I'd have greatly enjoyed seeing.

QuQ Thank you Niiiight. As much as I would have liked to have gotten to this point in the actual OCT, I'm glad I waited until I improved. I got to do it some kind of justice, I guess. ;u;

OH MAN Mirage Coordinator. That is a great song. Fits well. 8D
Actually, it was this song that I would listen to whenever I wanted to develop the scene, and the fight to follow. 8DDD;;; [link]
It was awesome, because the song that came before it on my iPod playlist was a sad piano theme. TOTALLY worked.

This is me when I saw this in my inbox>

This is me reading the comic >
Poor Edward, Poor Mino.
OH NOES EDWARD!
Oh f*ck, Edward.
Oh silly Tellou and snarky Ysef.
OH YAY FI-

NOOOO CLIFFHANGER

Also- I couldn't help but laugh to myself that neither grown men moved forward when a shadowy abomination exploded a couple of feet away from Sheep. |D That's pretty much in character I have to say. Had this been in canon, this would have been Ysef's 3rd match against a weaker-but-I've-got-a-shadowy-psycho-brawler-monster-in-me competitor. XD

Worth the wait. Sooo worth the wait.

QUQ;; I-I'm so glad you like it. Thanks again for letting me do this. Finishing it was like lifting a huge weight off my shoulders, haha.

Now, as for sending you the full version, I have a lot of things I could send you. I have a folder with all the psds, original sketches, bonuses and whatnot. Before I rar it all, how much of it would you like? C:

Nexis89 [2011-02-16 23:05:41 +0000 UTC]

Wow, now that's just, wow o_o

I have to say, you really ran the gambit of emotions for this comic; the pain and sadness of Edward to what happened to Mino, the eruption of the almost Lovecraftian horror from him and threatening the others, and of course Ysef's classic surly cockiness even in the face of a horrific shadow, ink, blob, thingy. You really outdid yourself in this one Para
