Why should I write better when a machine can do it for me?
Because actually no one can do it for you, because your voice is unique among all the people on earth. Siri never petted a horse's neck. Alexa has never been ghosted by the captain of the football team. But you have lived, your heart is beating, you have suffered, and you have something important to say. It's a human's job, to use words, and whatever job you give to a machine, that part of your brain goes dark. Maybe it's worth it when it comes to remembering phone numbers and directions, but when that part of your brain that uses words goes dark, that's a vast area that's very close to your soul. Don't let some internet platform convince you that what you have to say and create isn't worthwhile. Words are the echo of your soul. Honing that echo matters.

Digital painting. Lucanis, Neve and Bellara are walking down the Minrathous market street, carrying grilled fish. Lucanis taking a bite of his, carrying a bag with fresh fish and looking towards wares and vendors. Bellara has hooked her arm with Neve and is frowning with a serial opened on one hand. Neve is looking at the serial, smiling, using her scepter as somewhat of a cane.

Emmrich holds the pot handle and a bunch of herbs Taash is giving him, apparently guiding Manfred while looking at him. Taash is holding a bunch of vegetables and herbs with their other arm and is paying attention to the pot.

Harding has a space on one hand and the other motions to protect her face, but she's smiling. Davrin has one hand on Assan's back, but is also smiling. Assan is very enthusiastic, and a lot of truffles are being dug up

Taash is showing Emmrich a tea bag and he seems pleasantly surprised. Bellara is excitedly talking to Lucanis, who is smiling at her with a piece of paper on his hands. Neve and Harding are looking at Manfred, who's standing and is holding his arms up, looking happy. Davrin watches while petting Assan, who's lying on the floor behind him. Everyone has their mug from the the first image.

A digital drawing of Sandal's OC's Lucia Mercar, looking at the camera with a slight smile, sitting on a table and wearing a suit while embracing Neve Gallus, who's wearing a tight dress with thin straps, from behind. Light blue stripes run across them from top right to bottom left, emphasizing the composition.

Digital painting. A close up of a cupboard niche with seven distinct mugs belonging to the Veilguard members, plus a metal bowl with a griffons detail and a water skin: one skull-shaped, one tall with shiny triangles, one that's a horn with golden baubles, one iron with griffon motifs, one copper with flower motifs and dandelions coming from it, one with diamond motifs and a snake-shaped handle, and one with crow motifs.

this one started out simply as a younger Emmrich sketch, but then it felt a bit empty or incomplete, and long story short, now I have a headcanon where they actually saw each other in passing, but long forgot about it because it wasn’t important :D

Digital painting of Neve Gallus from Dragon Age and a femme qunari Rook kissing in a cave. Neve is pulling Rook towards her against the wall, pulling their skirt and holding on their back. Rook is wearing a lavish green and golden robe with golden fringes and a red long skirt, and they're trying to balance themself. They're looking into each other's eyes and Rook is laughing in the kiss.

A bedroom scene with a human Rook and Neve Gallus. Neve kneels on a bed with Rook in her hand and knees, implying that she has Neve’s strap-on in her mouth. Wisps float around the room, casting a soft glow. There is a blurred table in the foreground with some personal items on it. The background looks like a Tevinter building. A shadow dragon crest is painted in blue in a red wall.

Years ago I saw Film Crit Hulk say something I remember as boiling down to "asking if a movie is good or bad is meaningless, what's important is what is the movie trying to do or say and how does it achieve that for you" and, like, yeah. In art there should be a priesthood of all.
