Once Upon a Dream (Animation) CastiVen - The World is Stained PV

Hello, my little gears! I've missed you all so dearly.
I'm sorry for my absence, I've been struggling with my depression pretty servery this year. Yes, I've been getting help and treatment, but everyone is different in what can work or doesn't. I strive to be an inspiration to you all, but I can only hope that at this point I haven't let anyone down with my lack of content and motivation. If you are struggling or know someone that is struggling, reach out - help is out there, no matter how rock bottom you think you've hit. If you think no one else loves you, I'm hear to tell you that I, as many others cherish your existence and you deserve to smile.

BACKSTORY (in relation to CTWIS)
I can't over share with this because it ties into my next book. Era Grey is a doll brought to life by Rebecca's mother through ways of witch craft. In short, (I can't tell you everything yet! ;3) Rebecca passes away, and her mother blames Era, though it had nothing to do with him, and curses him (which is linked to the reason his eyes sometimes turn black).
Era meets Castiven and his family, and can't help but remember Rebecca, his love, seeing the way Castiven holds Vee so dearly in his heart. It grows into an empty envy, one he can never admit to either of them. Hagred knows, however. Hence why he comforts Era at the end.
That's all I can reveal for now, loves!~ My goal was to fill the viewer with a sence of love, loss, and whimsical states.

This is probably my favorite project to date. This is the direction I plan on taking future uploads.
