Elementals: HOPE
Added 2020-09-23 17:05:15 +0000 UTCA commission just finished from the Elemental commission series: Digi as a HOPE Elemental!
Despite all you have endured, despite all who tried to deny your nature and crush your spirit, despite the dark and cold of the world, despite everything, the spark of light at the core of your heart has never gone out. At times it has dimmed, or your light has been veiled, but the weakness you have felt has only ever been the weight of so much bearing down on you. Your true strength is greater than you could ever imagine. You are still here, still you - a seed waiting for the right moment to sprout, a sun finally peeking over the horizon after a bitter night.
even the thorn in your heart / in time it may become / a rose πΉ
