GREETINGS WEASYLERS. I'm going to attempt yet again to become more active on this site . . . which also means uploading my backlog of pictures, starting with this one from October 2014. I'll probably submit one thing each day or two so that I don't flood people but can also get caught up relatively quickly.
 

Original description from DA below:

Soo, here we have a kind of "part 2" to my previous picture of Harry and Jaymond's past.

This takes place shortly after that picture (though not necessarily right after that specific fight . . . these two had a few fights back in the day). So it's also back when Harry was 12 and Jaymond 14. Admittedly Jaymond doesn't look much younger than his present-day 19-year-old self, but um, we can just say that he'd already done most of his growing by this point. That makes biological sense, right?

It's kind of hard to explain much about this picture without: a) providing you with an essay about the world's history and culture; and b) resulting in some spoilers; so this will all be a bit vague, but basically, the norbatrul in the foreground here is having a little chat with these two about their attitudes to one another. During the conversation, he brings up the Quilish phrase "culpi ruthorn, tampi ruthorn". The generally accepted English translation of this is "same blood, same earth", but the Quilish meaning is much more multi-layered and forms an important part of Illupian culture. It's probably the most well-known Quilish phrase (besides single words that have been adopted into everyday use) and is understood by pretty much all Illupians regardless of their level of fluency in Quils.

Jaymond, who had always considered himself a proud Illupian while growing up on an Argonan-controlled island, believed that he had a deep understanding of the concept, but he had never heard it being used in quite the same way as he did during this conversation. Harry, being an Argonan human (and an army officer at that) had been raised to believe that the "natives" were primitive, and he had never been interested in learning anything about them that wasn't required to develop or enhance military tactics. So despite being stationed on an island that was the traditional home of norbatruls, tylads and aacors, he had never even heard the phrase before this point.

. . . And that's about all I'm going to say on this topic for now because of the reasons outlined above, so I'll leave the rest up to your interpretation.
