Eternal Galaxy Project

[Cucoo5]

Well the two halves easily could be GAIA and VOID
The central star however... I got nothing...

@Cucoo

That could work. Do we still need to figure out what each part of the symbol signifies?

[Cucoo5]

actually... both might be the answer...

representing GAIA and VOID Projects... Or if I oversimplified it... Life and Death.
Might reflect what the Caeles value... which might show another facet of their culture...

@Cucoo

I'm not sure which it should be. The emblem really could be the emblem used to signify the "GAIA Project" as a whole, much like the emblems used in the military with different squadrons and the like. On the other hand, it could be a symbol that represents a set of ideals to the Caeles.

What are your thoughts.

[Cucoo5]

Originally it was the centerpiece of the SoS (the central crystal is the sky blue gem and is thus the sixth SoS). However with the revision of the timeline, the emblem would have existed before the SoS was even created. Which means it represents something else.

Considering that the GAIA Computer is located in the Manor of Eternity's Sanctuary, and that the floor of the Sanctuary is the emblem, there could be a tie to the GAIA Computer or the Caeles in general.

@Cucoo

Man, you're just like Bungie and the number 7.

Anyways, I thought that the emblem represented the SoS. Do they? What do your notes say?

[Cucoo5]

Idk...
If you look at the colors and think about Aion... it just doesn't seem right but... eh might just be me.

Also I don't even remember what the emblem even represents anymore.

Only thing I can remember is that I divided it into 6ths and that 3 parts would then be of the purple and 3 parts of the sky blue... and that meant something.
...Also I keep forgetting this but EG has a lot of things that come in sixes.

6 Shards of Starlight
6 Solar Systems
6 Artifacts of Heaven's Forge

and a few other things I can't remember right now.

@Cucoo

Why would it be strange?

[Cucoo5]

@ Mima

Aye, I kinda had that in my head when I mentioned that the third could just be one red and one grey.

@ S1

Probably red again just to show him coming full cycle... though part of me thinks that he would still be different which might mean he has a different set of eye colors...

Actually... there is something that I've been meaning to develop properly that might be connected to the Caeles in general and might help on this...



This emblem is not only a centerpiece of the Shards of Starlight, but also found in the Manor of Eternity.
...though it would be strange if Aion's eye color reflected the two main colors of the emblem...

[Koishi]

Who says it needs to be one eye color? He has two eyes, you know. Just sayin'. Heterochromia's cool.

[S121]

@Cucoo

Ahh, I see.

Hmm...

Well, what about the fact that Aion fights the Unknown once more, this time as a last hurrah of sorts? What would his eye color be? Would he have hope during this time?

What are your thoughts?

[Cucoo5]

And that would be the main problem. The original reason for grey and red were:
Grey - Emptiness (not quite white so not quite a "blank slate") representing his missing memories. And for ashes...
Red - Fire (his passion and wrath were admired and feared by others and as a noble he made use of it.)

...maybe there is no fourth color but the third is one eye red and one eye grey...


Tbh Aion also has a few Phoenix references himself. 1) literal Phoenixes are common in Helios System compared to others and he befriended one. 2) his rebirth 3) Ignis.

Hmm...

The question is, what does the color for the end of Phoenix need to reflect or signify?

[Cucoo5]

Well if I look through what Aion goes through...
First he's a noble, then he's reincarnated without those memories, and then he gets back all memories.
His mentality could easily shift 3 times through the story. Right now, however I only have two eye colors set for him: grey during the second and red during the first. There could be a third eye color he has... or maybe even a fourth...

Actually, when he's a noble he might have orange eyes. The red would be a return to his original self except different because of the experiences during the time when he didn't have his original memories.
Now the fourth could be towards the end of Phoenix... Which I have no idea what color it could be but if I did go through with it, Aion would effectively have a different eye color each part of the story.

@Cucoo

Really? What happens?
