Separate, but never parted.

Features:

• 3 new artworks

This skin is available for purchase.

700 / 09-Nov-2022

Level 1

The Kindred appear as two--the eternal child and the ever-hungry beast--but in truth, they are one being of a single mind and purpose.

Level 2

Delighting in one another's company, they run and bound throughout the spirit realm--until the time they are called upon to perform their never-ending duties.

Kindred's Spirit Journey

"A fleeting glimpse of what is to come." - Lamb

Notes
