Amhrosine: The Fallen

I started creating Song of the Fallen characters by coloring and editing outlines available in Canva a few months ago, and after making three or so, I decided they would look good as tarot style cards, giving birth to this series… This is the first character I created: Amhrosine.

Amhrosine was a Star (goddess) best known for the fact that unlike her siblings, she possessed talents from both of the High Stars. In addition to being capable of complex creation like Roedanya, even Pharos relied on her clear foresight.

Her title in the tarot series is a reference to her tragic fate, in which a Noor named Orlaith, who was infatuated with her, corrupted her light and turned her into the demonic host of the Tenebrum known as Amhelle.

Her pale skin and the red roses surrounding her indicate that Amhrosine took after her father greatly in appearance, but her personality more closely resembled her mother’s. Against the wishes of the Asterim, she defied the edict of the First Dawn and went to Earth to guide the lost humans and fae warring there, which earned her the title “The Bright Faith” before her fall.

“All The Humans That Didn’t Know Love” by Shuvo Shams really captured my interest when I found it! It’s a very brief read, but it takes you on an emotional roller-coaster. It completely defies any expectations you create for it based on the first paragraph and personally left me wanting to know more about its narrator.

It’s received very little attention, with only 97 claps and 1 comment (50 of those claps are mine, as is the comment), but I think it deserves more. Go give it a chance and be sure to let Shuvo know what you think of it!
