I'm sorry if anyone is disappointed that this is not an art project (or a "professional-looking project" by any definition of the phrase). But in my defense, I can't just keep making art projects forever. Also, this is too cool for me to just ignore it and NOT speculate on what it might mean. So I'm sharing a project with my speculations about what in the world is this thing (did something similar with Scratch Murder Mystery several years ago except that project actually has some art in it–). SO! @ArcanisHD posted this cool poem/riddle thingy on his profile's comment section!!!! (By the way if you're not following him GO FOLLOW HIM HE IS AMAZING) Welcome to an absolute word wall of me very possibly overanalyzing a riddle that might not even be a riddle. I have a few theories for what this might be? 1. It's just a really cool poem thing. 2. It's a riddle and every line is a word and we solve it to get one complete sentence (like what Team Cherry did with one of the Silksong riddles) 3. Any other form of riddle So... how do we solve this thing? The first letter of every line is out of the question (it's sort of a classic, but it's getting old at this point isn't it). ATADAATC? That doesn't really make any sense, so I'm going to let that slide (UNLESS IT ACTUALLY MEANS SOMETHING–) So I think that every line is a word/noun/object/character/whatever. - "A heart brings forth a crimson fire" my first thought was "Oh the Nightmare Heart from Hollow Knight". Then I saw the "deck of cards" line and as far as I know there's nothing in Hollow Knight that has any cards (or star-draped tables), so I guess anything Hollow Knight related is out of the question. Also, unless AK is planning to make anything HK-related, he probably wouldn't post a Hollow Knight related riddle on his profile (unless–) My second thought was "Oh, maybe he's talking about his OCs". Now this makes a lot more sense, because AK's got this cool universe thing with Homecome and the META series and all that cool stuff in it, and it's honestly a lot more likely that he'll make a riddle for them than Hollow Knight. So what is this "heart brings forth a crimson fire" thing? There's two characters (as far as I can remember at the moment I'm typing up all this in one session at like 9:45 PM) with fire powers: Jay and Tai. However, Jay's fire is pink. So if AK's cool riddle/poem thing is talking about his OCs, that first line is probably talking about Tai, or some other fire character that I forgot about. -"Two eyes gaze their irises into a swirl of color" Okay I have no idea who or what this is, but that sounds a lot like hypnotization powers to me. -"A deck of cards neatly stacked aside a star-draped table" So if AK's talking about his OCs, this is probably Fortuna. The Fortune-Teller-Cat-Hybrid character. -"Darkness traveled by speeds immeasurable" Kev can teleport with his shadow tendrils thing. Need I say more? -"Anger fueled by the need to protect others" Saiga? Dunno, she doesn't seem that angry, but maybe I need to rewatch all the META animations again. -"A brass shell to cover one's insecurity" Not sure who or what this is at the moment. -"Time moves forward by your command" Okay, if there's a character with time powers that's just OP. -"Combined, they look towards the outcome that is our future." Lemme guess, they're gonna save the world. So overall, I have next to no idea what is going on with this thing, but HOLY HECK I AM EXCITED to see what happens next! I think a possibility is that this is going to tie the META universe and the Homecome universe together? I mean they're already somewhat connected with Kev being a Sable and all that, but maybe there's going to be some Sky Odyssey stuff as well? I have no idea. This is just my guess on what this might be, I am really sorry if you think I'm going overboard or whatever, but this is honestly too intriguing for me to ignore :P Now if you'll excuse me I need to go revisit all the AK lore I can find Have a nice day/night wherever you are I guess, I hope you're not too bored out by that giant wall of text :P -Whiteboard :D This is like the most random project I ever made HELP–
