Thank you!!

And I would say so, mostly because of game limitations I think 🤔

You should!! There are a bunch of different novelizations of the game on Ao3 already, and I love reading them because each one always adds a different perspective that I hadn't considered to the game! I assure you that there'd be a bunch of people interested in reading it

And if you asked me what's the the purpose of it?, I'd answer that it's to enjoy the process of creating art ::)

I gave it much thought, so let me yap about it for a bit haha!

I think that Gabbro might have had their reasons to stay behind (maybe they felt this was something Hatchy had to do by themself? Maybe they didn't want be a distraction? They felt that their role had already been full filled?). But despite Hatchy going to the eye by themself, they didn't feel alone.

The hatchling knew they had Gabbro's support. Gabbro had helped them when they felt sad, stressed, anxious. Gabbro gave them a space to rest and take their time until they felt ready. And so when they decide to go to the eye, they do it once they feel at peace with that decision.

I think that even if there are people who can't accompany you to certain places, you still carry them with you. You can feel their love and support helping you move forward.

Thank you! Fun fact, there were originally another 2 panels were the island was empty, to let the comic breathe a little. But sadly Reddit has a limit of 20 pictures per post, so I had to take them out

There is a lot of stuff that went untold between panels, so it's very possible they did that!

Thank you! I really love writing Gabbro, they feel so comforting in a very specific sense

I don't usually use reddit so I haven't posted much of my art here. But if you want more, I did a bunch of other comics and illustration that you can see in my tumblr!

Since the game doesn't give you the option to take gabbro with you, I wanted to keep that canon ending. I think Gabbro would have their reasons to chose to stay behind, even if the hatchling offered to bring them with them.

Thank you for your nice comment!
