Short animation: Ex Tenebris Venimus
I got this off my plate and I am SO relieved.
This was a fucking chore man, but I love, how this came out.
it's one thing to talk about Tetra constantly in lore snippets, i wanted to show. And it took me a month just to settle on the LOOK that came from what I made already in images, then the real work began.
It is not NSFW, to be clear. it's world building, and I'm glad I finished it. Two more animations in my pipeline along with everything else. :) I know I said I wouldn't post, but I buckled down and got this done.
Here is a translation for the song for the animation;
Ex tenebris / Ex tenebris venimus
Out of darkness / Out of darkness we come
Custodes aetheris / Corona aeterna
Keepers of the heavens / The eternal crown
Dominae stellarum
Ladies of the stars
Genuflectite / Genuflectite, terra tacet / Aperite viam
Kneel / Kneel, the earth falls silent / Open the way
Selena, Sabina / Filiae aetheris / Lumina coronae
Selena, Sabine / Daughters of the heavens / Lights of the crown
Ecce Seleone / Ecce imperatrix / Venit, venit / Adveniat regina Tetranorum
Behold Seleone / Behold the Empress / She comes, she comes / Let the Queen of the Tetrans come
Gloria in umbra / Gloria imperatrix / In saecula saeculorum
Glory in shadow / Glory to the Empress / For ever and ever
I hope you like it! And I'll be around! : D

OMG amazing!!!
This is wonderful!!! Great work and thanks for the share.
Saw it on X, and I'll say it again. Just jaw dropping, from beginning to end. Spectacular Levi. 🤩🙌🌹🌹🌹🌹
The was fucking awesomeness 👌 👏
I already said what I wanted to convey to you on X, but it’s worth repeating. While it took a month, you laid a foundation in art, animation, audio, and lore. That is not just one skill and you didn’t just settle on the “easy” or simply produce a product and post. You made it unique and “yours” in your own signature way. What made Gorge Lucas, Walt Disney, Stan Lee, and James Camron some of the greatest? They had a big imagination and focused on the details to make a believable universe. That’s what you shared today, and it was all you. Bravo Levi! 👏Keep building this wonderful universe and supporting community that continues to grow all because of a beautiful idea. 💡
Wait - are they the baddies? 😅😘💋💋💋
Shhhhhhhhh
This came out amazing! You can’t see any inconsistency in the animation or transitions. I can’t wait to see you grow!
A small glimpse of the power held by the empress! Fucking! Phenomenal! Animation! Levi! Who cares if there’s no NSFW in this, the world building is much more inviting and interesting! Sign me up for more of this! :D
Whole heartedly agree with you Adam! This foundation is amazing! Could you imagine if the Empress got “Mad”? 😅🫣
🤯... Increíble Levi. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
+1 to the “Levi is *amazing*” tally.
Saw it on X, I said my bit. Maybe too long if a bit but hey, no harm in it lol. Awesome work, beautiful visuals, and can't wait to see more of Tetra and Tetran society and lore.
Awesome, looks like Videogame Intro. So epic!!
Damn Levi, you really upping your game, that's some intro cinematic stuff right there 👏, they should make you lead designer for that game development team if you aren't already
For Tetra!!! For the Empress!!!
Just saw it I'm X and I'll see it again. You always exceed yourself.
