Emotional Baggage

Emotional Baggage is the third artwork in the Odyssey Ablaze series. Odyssey Ablaze is a story following Ignis Stello and his pursuit of finding a purpose in life. On his mission Ignis goes through a wide spectrum of emotional and mental states, often doubting if he will ever be able to find what he is looking for. His odyssey is a symbol of the unavoidable struggles on the journey to a purposeful life, with every obstacle thrown in the way. "No way to win, loneliness knocked no matter the choice. Left me with a heart of spikes, either way I pick it up it stings, a sting of emptiness, helplessness and fear. A heart I have to carry until it's fused to my skin, until it becomes a part of me, until it becomes a scar that can't be hidden. A heart that was once soft as a cloud, a cloud that even cupids were jealous of, now turned solid, heavier than the biggest mountain. A heart I'd choose to cary all over again, knowing everything that it was, is and could've been."
