Ants [TGCF animatic]

TGCF book 2 : “They‌ ‌were‌ ‌like‌ ‌ants‌ ‌crawling‌ ‌on‌ ‌a‌ ‌tree;‌ ‌the‌ ‌fortress‌ ‌city‌ ‌gates‌ ‌remained‌ ‌unmoved.‌ ‌ ‌ Xie‌ ‌Lian‌ ‌stood‌ ‌on‌ ‌top‌ ‌of‌ ‌the‌ ‌tower.‌ ‌His‌ ‌white‌ ‌robes‌ ‌fluttering‌ ‌in‌ ‌the‌ ‌wind,‌ ‌and‌ ‌he‌ ‌crossed‌ ‌the‌ ‌parapet‌ ‌to‌ ‌watch‌ ‌below.‌ ‌Outside‌ ‌the‌ ‌royal‌ ‌capital,‌ ‌there‌ ‌were‌ ‌endless‌ ‌heads,‌ ‌black‌ ‌and‌ ‌squirming,‌ ‌dense‌ ‌and‌ ‌tightly‌ ‌knit,‌ ‌very‌ ‌much‌ ‌like‌ ‌swarms‌ ‌of‌ ‌ants‌ ‌he‌ ‌used‌ ‌to‌ ‌see‌ ‌when‌ ‌he‌ ‌played‌ ‌in‌ ‌the‌ ‌royal‌ ‌gardens‌ ‌in‌ ‌his‌ ‌younger‌ ‌years.‌ ‌ ‌ Back‌ ‌then,‌ ‌out‌ ‌of‌ ‌curiosity,‌ ‌he‌ ‌looked‌ ‌closer‌ ‌and‌ ‌extended‌ ‌a‌ ‌finger‌ ‌wanting‌ ‌to‌ ‌poke‌ ‌at‌ ‌them‌ ‌secretly,‌ ‌but‌ ‌there‌ ‌was‌ ‌immediately‌ ‌an‌ ‌attendant‌ ‌who‌ ‌cried‌ ‌out,‌ ‌“Your‌ ‌Highness!‌ ‌Those‌ ‌things‌ ‌are‌ ‌dirty,‌ ‌you‌ ‌can’t‌ ‌touch!‌ ‌Don’t‌ ‌touch!”‌ ‌and‌ ‌with‌ ‌her‌ ‌dress‌ ‌lifted,‌ ‌she‌ ‌ran‌over‌ ‌hurriedly‌ ‌and‌ ‌squished‌ ‌all‌ ‌the‌ ‌ants‌ ‌under‌ ‌her‌ ‌foot.‌ ‌ When‌ ‌those‌ ‌ants‌ ‌were‌ ‌alive,‌ ‌other‌ ‌than‌ ‌a‌ ‌dense‌ ‌swarm‌ ‌there‌ ‌wasn’t‌ ‌much‌ ‌to‌ ‌look‌ ‌at,‌ ‌and‌ ‌after‌ ‌having‌ ‌been‌ ‌squished‌ ‌into‌ ‌something‌ ‌less‌ ‌than‌ ‌mudpiles,‌ ‌there‌ ‌wasn’t‌ ‌anything‌ ‌left‌ ‌to‌ ‌look‌ ‌at.‌ ‌ “ I dont own characters or music!
