When Fire Meets Water

((Those who know what this is for will understand the story behind it, and that of its meaning. The rest can come to your own conclusions :) ))

[Dio Astóre 69]

Vanitas paintings use more obvious symbology, but let's see what we have here; sand, cobble, dirt, water, one block of obsidian and lava.

Interpretation: each block represents an associated element for a Descendant Race, which is holding back a firey wave of destruction, which seems remiscent of the Undeads' effect on wherever they sweep through.

The obsidian was formed when the lava found a weakness (the gap) in the 'defenses' and the water halted the molten march. The Ascended tide? Fitting theme given the happenings of late.

[Elindor 666]

That's a lot of reading into it. Your hazarded guess, however, is incorrect.

Nice making it look like a painting too. Rather homely touch.
