Rhen Pendragon Aesthetic - Aveyond 1

Images from pinterest as always, quote from "Snow and Dirty Rain" by Richard Siken.

Usually I just kind of post these but I'm a little tired today and I have decided I want to share all the reasons for the images I chose and where I placed them, so there. You can't stop me, though I suppose you can just not read this if you like.

So the first column is images that have to do with Rhen's journey. The first of her with her sword (or somebody who looks like her, obviously that's not really Rhen it's just from pinterest T.T) looking out over some kind of landscape. It just kind of has a "this is the beginning of an adventure" feel to it, ya know? The second is flowers which remind me of marion bells. The whole Aveyond adventure sort of started with flowers and if you've read In Pieces (www.fanfiction.net/s/12094251/…) you know that for me the flower theme continues. Flowers grow and Rhen grows, both are simultaneously wild and soft and tenacious. Yeah, I'll cut off that analysis there but if you read my oneshots you will see that I'm obsessed with this symbol. And of course the third picture is a quote which reflects what Rhen has been through and grown into. (The poem also mirrors her journey in some ways, if you're familiar with it. Not a perfect match but interesting.)

The second column has images reflecting the different parts of Rhen; peasant, sword singer, and queen. In the game it really felt like a natural progression, if a crazy one, and also I loved that certain parts of her never changed no matter what she was put through. She's just Rhen, as she says at the end, and I adore her.

The third column has to do with the combination of ferocity and kindness that exists in her. You could say she's "deadly and beautiful at the same time," eh? ;D The first pic is a sword, but obviously a sword that's not equipped, sort of to represent that she is willing to fight but she will choose peace first. She fights when she has to, to protect the innocent, that sort of thing. The second pic shows her in her armor with her hair down, again just kind of the contrast between ready for battle and ready to pick flowers and chase sheep or whatever. And the last pic is the sea, which again is something you will understand if you've read my oneshots. The last pic also came that way, I didn't have to edit the colors at all. Gorgeous, right? Pinterest is magic. 

And lastly, I will probably make a billion more Rhen aesthetics as I find more images and get better at editing but here is the first one anyway, ahaha
