But like I don't want to rewrite this cuz there's nothing I would add to these scenes when they already say so much

This story is so important to me which is probably why I struggle so much. I want it to be perfect but that's literally impossible especially on a first try

And I feel like I could do a lot better with the messaging in the fic. It just feels on the nose and lacking any nuance rn

I didn't write out clear rules for the college nor the magic system and now it's really kicking me in the shins

But I really like most of what I've written already

The details are awesome!!

I need him. I haven't done the archon quest yet cuz I've been busy but I am staring at Durin in the cover art and I want him. He is everything.

And Albedo made him GORGEOUS hello??

When they teased him returning in the Paralogism interlude, I was so excited to see him come forth in his full dragon glory. But then Albedo saw that he truly only ever wanted to belong. So he gave him a body suited for the human realm.

He so loved Mondstadt and it's people, and Dvalin, only to be slain for the foul creation that he was. He so envied Albedo's luxury to live amongst the same people who feared him, that he wanted to replace him. He so craved a place to belong, he would've committed true evils to achieve it.

When they revealed the evil dragon in Simulanka was a replica of Durin. I was crazy. Retelling the story of the dragon who only wanted to belong, but his body was physically unable to do anything but bring wrath and destruction.

You don't understand. I've been a Durin fan since he showed up in the 2.3 Albedo event as an Albedo clone. I've scoured weapon descriptions for more information about him. I've sat for hours in Dragonspine wondering about this dead dragon that's slowly coming back to life.
