An aio-om has fallen asleep in a giant flower ^__^
"Aio-om" is translated from the language of Æa as "into the sky", "aio" being "sky" and "om" – "(in)to"

"Un estraneo senza patria"
It's my Deity, when They realized that They don't belong to the world where They had been reborn throughout millennia. The moment of realizing that They need to create Their own world and the first step on this way.

Just an Æa-"kid" swinging on lianas ^__^
P. S. "kid" is in quotes because in my World, all the creatures are sexless and fall from special trees

"The Transition"
There's a process of Æa growing wings as a result of a spiritual practice which involves adaptation to an environment.

"Ich öffne dein Herz, lass mich hinein" (c)
The art was inspired by the song "Schönheit" by Schwarzer Engel, however I interpret it in my own way.

A temple dedicated to the God who created Æa, lost in the depth of forest. Æa aren't particularly religious, but sometimes they like to visit their Divine Mother.

"It's the Way that Divides us"
There's a military pilot Ehíye on the right and there's the same person but in their childhood on the left. Having been very young, Ehiye had already acquired the tough skills of "adapting to an environment".

"Oxymoron"
There are gerberas on the ceiling – the symbols of innocence and devoted love, whereas my character's wings are black from sins unknown to me. I also feel like I haven't learnt to love my personal God sincerely enough. A combination of incompatible = oxymoron.

"The Creators' Dead Fruit"
There's my God on the right and my character on the left. Together we create worlds, and there's a reason why we can see the Avenue of Dead Trees in the middle: no matter how much I create, it'll be wasted, not receiving enough feedback.

Roi-ki – "an animal living on the trees and tweeting"
It has two pairs of ears and a coat merging with foliage so that it can hear and hide (if necessary) from people (Æa) who always want to cuddle it ~

"Where It All Begins"
Æa before being born, grows in a special shell on a special tree. All nutrients come through the hair (during the time in the shell the hairs are expanded). In the end the shell will fall into a soft foliage beneath the trees and Æa will come out.

"Shall We Take a Ride?"
Æa (let's name them Keeye, which means "the sky blueness at noon") and æio-om ~ They're both sexless btw, like all the creatures in my World.

"To Rise above this Hell"
This is my deity in the metaphorical process of becoming such. Originally, They were from the planet of the Empire (the people of Kathiti). And yes, They are sexless, as usual.

"In your name, we have died and been reborn"
Æa and their Creator. The latter has Their eyes closed because Æa have complete free will and can do whatever they want – it won't affect Their attitude. The trees symbolize the Groves of Life, where Æa are born.

"The Avenue of Dead Trees"
The avenue is a natural phenomenon, and its leafless state symbolizes Æa's lack of self-realization during the period of slavery.

"The Balance"
The image symbolizes the unity of Æa's (my folk's) peaceful and military forces: peaceful individuals can soar into space with their thoughts, while the military ensures a peaceful sky overhead.
P.S. The attire is ceremonial, so no weapons or additional equipment.

"Legacy"
A figure in white (Æyi) holds their dead creator (Gareth) in their arms. Gareth was executed after the revolution as a nazi-colonialist. Legacy is the mental struggles and traumas Gareth left behind for Æyi during their time together.
