name: (Reth) Absko
crest design: Oekaki link here
explanation: Absko comes from a long line of royalty. Each member of the family inherits the the same minty green eyes and so the color has come to represent royalty in their region. Their family animals is the swan. It is thought that the swan was adopted as the royal animal not just because of its grace but also the mythology is represents. In Absko's region they believe in the myth of the swan maiden. In many places the mythology is of a woman who shifts between swan and human and is distinguished by a garment of swan feathers. Normally the mythology tells the story of a young man who steals this garment and because she is unable to turn into a swan again she is unable to run away and is made his wife. However the Reth family believes in a second variation where despite the fact she loses her magical powers the swan maiden fights back and wins, killing the man. To the Reth family it symbolizes resilience. Although they may at times lose power or strength still fighting back against evil despite the odds.

name: Symmer
crest design:

explanation: Symmer is from a family of well-known protectors who work the land to create a safe space for all who occupy it. Their muscular builds and long claws help them to manipulate the earth easily, and are traits considered to be reserved for the chosen generations of the family. This can be indicated by the glules-coloured engrailed line running down the middle of Symmer's family crest, meaning "earth or land". The griffin symbolises the family's magnanimity to the common people, and is placed in the middle because it is what Symmer's family are renowned for.
Tandem tranquillus is the family motto, translating to "At last tranquil", reflecting their protective nature and fighting spirits. This is further seen by the sable-coloured dagger and or-coloured griffin, meaning honour in battle and valour, respectively. Symmer's family aren't honourable warriors, and nor do they have evidence to show they thrive on spilling the blood of their enemies. Instead, they rather fight for justice when the balance is uneven, and Symmer definitely isn't the one to back down when he believes something needs to be said. He has a passionate spark within him that turns into a fire when his own morals and motives are questioned. Reflection of this can be seen from the glues and argent-coloured pale ordinate, which represents not only military strength, but mental strength as well.
The forward-facing helmet with the visor closed represents duty and honour while being selfless, because they rather do it not for fame, but for the satisfaction of brining good to the world. The colours of the helmet -argent and or- mean peace and serenity in the mist of power and splendour, further supporting Symmer's selflessness.

I'd like to thank everyone for entering <3 I really loved the detail and research you both put into your entries not the mention the crests themselves came out wonderful ^^ However, the crest that won this fumi would be...

@ fruitbat !!
I adore the idea of Symmer ( and their family ) being protectors whom fight not because they crave it but because it's a necessary evil in the pursuit of a peaceful land !! I can't wait to see how you'll develop them next c: Furthermore, I will be giving a runner up design to...

@ Mercuré !!
Your swan story was really amazing and the way you encompass the anatomy of the swan in your crest to be a border as well part of the central design was very clever ^^ Hopefully, the design I made for you captures the essence of what you written well !!
