injuries-in-dust:

Two kingdoms have been at war for centuries over a single piece of land. A simple hill which housed a magical well. Its waters are said restore health and happiness to those that drink them.

The kings of both kingdoms are both getting old and sick. Both have vowed to never rest until the land is theirs. Both desire some of the waters of this fountain, so their health may be restored and they can continue their fight.

They order their respective children, the prince of east kingdom and the princess of the western kingdom, to secretly undertake the long journey to the front lines to sneak up the hill and retrieve some of the water. Secrecy is a must, lest their enemies move against them.

Alone and in disguise the prince and princess travel their lands. They see the poverty and sadness that the constant war has brought to their kingdom and their people. Their hearts grow cold and hard toward their enemies and the havoc they brought.

In the dark of the night they sneak past the front lines. All alone they climb their respective sides of the hill. Slowly, to not get spotted. Carefully so they dont stumble and fall in the dark.

By the breaking of the dawn they reach the top, and the prince and princess meet each other for the first time.

In their respective disguises, the prince sees this common girl, while the princess sees this common boy. Both declare their need greater, both speak about how their fathers are sick and need the healing power of the water.

As the day approaches they speak of many things as they try to make their case. They speak of their hate for their enemies and the damage the war has brought.

Yet the more they spoke, the more they came to realise many things. Their people are in poverty because of the high taxes their fathers enforced to fund their armies. The people are starving because all the food they grow is sent to feed the soldiers. Homes and villages are in disrepair because every able-bodied young man has been conscripted into the fight. Homes stand empty because family lines have ended on the front lines.

Both come to realise that their enemies are not to blame. The kings are to blame. Their selfish desire to possess and hoard the waters of the well.

How many have died to try and take this land? And if they did take it, how many will die trying to hold it from their enemies?

And would the people, who suffered so much in the name of their king, ever sample any of the sweet waters and see any health and happiness from the magic of the well?

Both conclude that, no, they wouldn’t.

And both knew that, as long as the selfish kings were in power, neither kingdom would ever know peace.

Prince Jack of the eastern kingdom turned his back on his father’s quest and left the common girl to the water. He would take up a new quest. For the good of his kingdom and all of it’s people. The prince would lead the revolution and remove his own father from power.

Princess Jillian of the Western kingdom left the common boy behind to return to her lands, call all of the loyal banners and people to her side that she could. She would not rest until she managed to remove her father from the throne.

Jack and Jill went up the hill to fetch a pail of water.

Jack fell down and broke his crown.

And Jill came tumbling after.

I got the chance to make nursery-rhyme-themed bookmarks for a baby shower, so I chose “Little Miss Muffet.” The mouse in his spider costume (with a peanut peace offering) was probably my favorite part to work on, although i’ll always have a soft spot for elephants!

Here’s my final nursery rhyme spread. I grew up loving this song, and only found out later that it’s Australian (which also explains why not that many other kids from New Jersey knew about it).

A class assignment to create an illustration based on the theorized origin of a nursery rhyme. I went with Hey Diddle Diddle which some believe helped children remember the best time to start planting since the characters correspond with constellations that are visible together during April. The lineup goes: cat/leo, fiddle/lyra, cow/taurus, little dog/canis minor (omitted for issues of space), dish/crater, & spoon/big dipper.

Nursery Rhyme from Fate/Extra
1 out of 2 artworks I drew for AliceFlag’s FGO book “Girls Order Vol.2” sold in Japan and Korea. I love this character a lot but I know I won’t draw her often (because her of her dress) so I’ve decided to go all out with the details on this piece!  ✧٩(ˊωˋ*)و✧
