i don’t know if i’m the only one noticing it but a lot of these designs seemed to be inspired by popular fairy tales or stories. the snow queen, the nutcracker, swan lake, water spirit/mermaids. the whole of snezhnaya is like a winter wonderland storybook 🥹
he looks like a male lead from those isekai manhwas titled "i got hit by a truck so now i got reincarnated into my favorite otome game but got engaged to the worst male lead: the cold duke of the north" type shit
Happy Birthday, Raiden Shogun!

A firework blooms, then vanishes in an instant.
So ephemeral. I once believed such transient brilliance was unworthy of pause.
But now, I understand. Though beauty may last but a moment, memories shared with friends can endure long after. Is this, too, not a form of eternity?

Sleep well, sleep well, children of this world...
Fear neither the dark nor the deathly stillness,
For the divine has promised you unconditional love.
Awaken, awaken, O storm with neither root nor source!
If blessings are so generous, so selfless,
Then why has mercy never reached the winter?
