Part 2
Part 3
I saw that the story of the god of Arepo was on the front page and wanted to share this comic that someone made of it. I definitely did not draw this just wanted to share it.

I loved this when I first read it and I love it even more seeing it illustrated like this. Thank you.
audioknob
Every time I read it, I always pictured the God to look like Luci from disenchantment for some reason

Roet
Beautiful.

It’s finally been comic-ized, amazing.
AeternalDreamer

Reminds me of small gods by terry prachett

I love this, it was awesome in the first place and this just puts it to bed.
oblimo
Arepo's god is the god of mundane liminal states, of everyday thresholds. In the TRPG Nobilis, it would be unstoppable.
Cranbananarama
Nice to see this get some visuals.
Snoopy101x
Every god damn time I read this.
Teasaurus
I cry every goddamn time I read this... How dare you make me feel...

I swear all week ninja onions have been sneak attacking me. Think this is attack number 5.
Dirtsailor2010
I don’t think I’ve cried like this before. The visuals really made it.
BobHubert
It’s been a while. I like the graphical representation

The original text was a whopper, this medium hit so much harder
HollywoodHells
You people are really making my emotional repression hard.
Lamplord
I don't know why it gets me so much
Forge128
It is a simple thing, executed extremely well. This is what gives it the power.
mrtweeter04
Me too! The story, the art , it’s a master piece
ColdfreezeZero
For me it's the note of unconditional friendship and devotion, to care for one another without expecting anything but companionship.
Fhant
This. Completely this.
hwatL4bloopy
I'm glad there's art for this

BadLuck2277
I came down here looking for exactly this. It's quite possible, that out of the last 5 times I cried over the years, 2 times was because...
BadLuck2277
of this story...; so yes; indeed: "Yo, what the fuck?!"
SteelSpaceBandit
Right!? Hits me straight in the feels every time!
TheFastpaws
A nice adaptation but the story is in the tiny details. More tiny details in the art would take it to the next level.
iamthugnasty
I really considered trying to make a short film out of the story, I just want to make sure I'm able to do it justice if I try.

The problem is that many people see the god of Arepo in different ways. Some see a raven, some an old man, some as barely anything at all.
ScarecrowSticks
Always thought the god of Arepo looked like:
glenngriffon
I imagined a tiny, frail, withered old gnome. A tiny thing with no temple and no worshippers and not even belief in himself. A small thing >
glenngriffon
No bigger than a newborn kitten and even more frail. I do miss the part of the story where the god of Arepo watches the years pass and the >
glenngriffon
world changes and to honor his friend he puts his all into his domain of humble beauty. I thought that was sweet and should have been here.
AnonOmis1000
I imagined him more as an old man, one who has lived a hard, but honest life, and became disenchanted with the world and his inability 1/2
AnonOmis1000
to make, in his eyes, any meaningful change 2/2
ScarecrowSticks
Maybe each person sees something different
AnonOmis1000
Everyone does. But he felt himself insignificant because he could not change the world. But he forgot he could affect one person at least.
jennym123
It's an ancient god, you're not wrong. Those are the deities whose form changes based on the way the story is told.
ScarecrowSticks
TerryCrews
I envisioned him as an ethereal creature, with only the hint of presence or form. As the god of a dozen nothings, he is almost nothing, but>
TerryCrews
beautiful enough if you stop to look at him.
ScarecrowSticks
1000 nothings?
Thesaya
I kind of miss the introductory words, but otherwise, this is very nicely done by them.
Grimmrog
yes, what the story i mising that when arepos god repeats what kind of god he is, the initial shown picture should be shown again, but more
Grimmrog
beautiful, in the way how Arepos perception of them has been.
GrumpyOldMillennial
Yeah, this is nice, for sure, but somehow the original text story conjured up more vivid visuals....
SirAlice
For some reason in my head when I read It I was thinking of it set in Japan. The comic is still nice though

Fuck that actually makes sense

Aw, he doesn't know how to drive.
CziltangBrony
Dude he is a Roman farmer, what could we reasonably have expected from him
Burke616
Yeah...

Also works in reverse word order: ROTAS OPERA TENET AREPO SATOR

Simply due to the fact that there are 5 palindromic length 5 words

This is v neat
isitmyturn
It's undoubtedly why the farmer is called Arepo. The 'Sator Square' is ancient: the earliest database example is in the ruins of Pompeii. /1
isitmyturn
Gah - 'datable'. Damn autocorrect. Anyway, see https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sator_Square
BunterTheMage
Wow thanks bud! Pretty surprised I’d never heard of it before!
CziltangBrony
Not to be confused with Satyr Arepa, the mischievous reveler among the corn-cakes...
