PARAVASTORA visdev: symbols, patterns, tiles, flags

I started with the visual development of The Secret Keeper guild - their members (for example, the main character Saikal) travel around the world to gather secrets from people. It is a common custom for the folk to confess something to the secret keeper when they met them. Once the keeper's book is filled with secrets, it's stored in the guild archives and the scribes rewrite this in the chronicles. Thus, the history is made.

The guild was founded by the goddesses of Sun and Moon, so the symbolics of the guild include these motifs. Since the activity of this guild is the defining cultural trait of Paravastora world, the patterns we can see in items and architecture are defined by it as well. I was mostly inspired by Belarusian patterns, since it's a part of my culture that is very dear to me.
