Does anyone else think about the differences between worshipping Saints?

For there has to be difference between East and West Ravka, nomadic Suli vs. stationary Ravkans, etc.

What headcanons or fanon have you constructed or used in your stories?

I think it’s interesting seeing how Inej practices her faith:

Inej knows she doesn’t need a fancy chapel to pray, but she does have physical reminders of the Saints that also have multiple uses and are easy to travel with.

Versus the Ravkan population who goes to “Church” which would be tied heavily to the Crown and the Apparat influence.

They put a lot more importance on study and the Saints are seen as almost gods to fear versus role models to emulate (that’s how I think Inej and her specific Caravan view the Saints).

What are your thoughts? I know the religions in the Grishaverse are…flimsy…but do you have anything to add? If you could change something what would you change? Are there any aspects of these fantasy religions that you hadn’t seen before or fascinated you?

Honestly this design feels like when Zoya was still a student in the Little Palace (early shadow and bone)

This is my favorite Nina edit I’ve found.

Edit by Olivia Moore on YouTube.

Nina is an interesting character, because she had so much potential for worldbuilding and the plot with West vs East Ravka. Right now, I’m working on “Episode Two” and figuring out how best to display Nina. She has her hand in many different cookie jars, hopefully I can do her justice.

There aren’t too many fanarts I’ve found with Nina in a kefta…but this fits perfectly!

Description: Nina putting hairpins in her messy light brown hair. She wears a red and black kefta and a black and white stylized belt. This is a 2D digital art style form.

Storm of Ruination: The Specific Reason I Ship Genya x Zoya

Honestly, with my many rewatches of SaB, the moment when Genya fights Arken…is sorta the origin of me shipping and conceiving of a Genya x Zoya thing.

(Silent video of the fight)

Anyway, how could I get “Zoya” anywhere from that encounter? Really, you can’t, but my writer brain was thinking, “Oh, but who taught Genya to fight?”

While in the books I don’t believe Genya ever got trained in any physical activity because of her servant status to the Queen, maybe this timeline is different. But, it is way more fun to say, “Oh, Zoya secretly taught her to fight.”

I just like the idea (even if a purely fanon one) of two girls on vastly different paths supporting and protecting each other the best way they can.

Any Genya x Zoya shippers, what do you like most about this ship? If you are just respective Genya and Zoya fans, what are your favorite moments or aspects of these characters?
