i now realise how erza does the stuff she does...because she is a fucking goddess
yes, she is not a simple human, she's greater than zeref
how do i know this? from reading the manga, right from the start...is there proof that she isn't? no! that she is? plenty...and the name that will be given to her after her divinity is revealed? the Errant...of course, for that to happen hundreds of years will come to pass
and here's a poem i found about her:
The Errant bends fate,
As unseen armour
Lifting to blunt the blade
On a field sudden
With battle, and the crowd
Jostles blind their eyes gouged out
By the strait of these affairs
Where dark fools dance on tiles
And chance rides a spear
With red bronze
To spit worlds like skulls
One upon the other
Until the seas pour down
To thicken metal-clad hands
So this then is the Errant
Who guides every fate
Unerring
Upon the breast of men.
i mean, it's either that, or mahsima is a really really poor storyteller...great drawings though
PS: for the curious ones, the poem is called 'The Casting of Tiles' and was written by Ceda Ankaran Qan (1059 Burn’s Sleep)
