Mortalkind will be crushed under the wheels of their own progress, and as their hatreds towards each other quicken in an ever-escalating series of conflicts, I will no longer need to serve as its master practitioner. War will become a self-sustaining system, built into the very principles of those who might otherwise fight for a transitory peace- built on barefaced lies and bottled emotion.
A samsara of hellfire and torturous nihility, a raging blaze which drives all to fight and die only to be reborn in null ouroboros. They will fight or be crushed under the heels of the bloodthirsty. Mortals are wrathful, stupid and rage-blinded creatures, ever prone to follow impulsive idiocy than innovative thought. Their eternal enemy has always been their own savage nature, and so I will exploit that to ensure they exploit no more.
And as they set the tripwire on that accursed construct that I have corrupted beyond measure, their last means of salvation will be gone and the Final Round will begin.
Millions upon millions of lives, homes and concepts quashed by their own folly, all their hopes and dreams thought realized, all of that sacrificed... For less than nothing.
Mortalkind's entitlement shall be their greatest wound.

About seven hours of work! I know it hasn't been long since I drew Xaela but I had an idea and nothing else was grabbing me and with it already halfway through the month I decided to go with this idea! I'm glad I did too, because despite the colorwork not being my best this was a great exercise in posing and anatomy of this variety. I'm very happy with how it came out. Xaela as usual looking so corrosively evil you can feel her venom!
