Kali Ma/גבורה/Judgement

Kali Ma/גבורה/Judgement

So how the heart system works has changed over the years, but at this point I have this idea that your heart can develop and slightly change form (within a reasonable area) as you change as a person, but the already established "Final stand" is a solidifying of it, never allowed to change again. That being said, while the form it takes in the world changes, that's all set dressing to the solid, consistent core. I find often when I'm writing things I never intended just *fall into place*. At his strongest, Julian's skin becomes a dark grey, originally just cause he's engulfed in flames, so he looks like ash/a silhouette. But the Hindu god, Kali also has black skin, and I found an odd intersection between the concepts of Julian's heart "Judgement", The god Kali, and The Kabbalah concept of Gevurah. Hearts themselves somehow ended up aligning very well with Thelema and the concept of 'the will'...(continued in comments)

Ideals and concepts can be given physical form in many ways, often cultures will cherry-pick very specific ones.

...One's will being the divine spirit in each of us (through some views we are all our own god, or a piece of God with a big G,). In-universe all of this is one *thing*, willpower itself is magic, and a strong concentration of willpower around a concept (either all of a single person's willpower or small amounts from a large number of people) Creates a physical form for that will....THAT ALL BEING SAID, the point I was trying to get at is that Julian is going to develop as a character, and Kali, and Gevurah both hit on this idea of, more or less "divine love taking the form of violence and destruction against the evil of the world." Currently his judgement is fueled more by hate and anger towards evil than love for what is good. So this design here is an Idea I had for an advancement of his heart once he improves in that way.
