Germany: In Gedenken...

"In Gedenken..."(In remembrance...)

Well folks...Kinda serious fanart from me...(I got a lot of other ideas though,but it's just recent topic because of tomorrow's event so yeah..)

Why is Gilbert dead? Actually I have strong believe that Gilbert is today's East Germany,BUT there's an Hetalia universe (in Fanfiction sometimes at least) where Gilbert dies resulting from the disappearence of former Prussia.

Why did I drew this?
Tomorrow is Totensonntag(Sunday of the Dead), also called Ewigkeitssonntag(Eternity Sunday) which is a German religious holiday observed mainly in Lutheran churches.
It's that day the people remember their passed away siblings.This Sunday of the death is going to be very hard for me because my beloved grandpa passed away this year in spring.I liked him very much and it was very hard for me to except that he's not with us anymore.

This fanart dedicated to my dear Opa

~Denn der Staub muss wieder zu Erde werden,
wie er gewesen ist.
Und der Geist wieder zu Gott,
der ihn gegeben hat.~
Prediger 12,7

(Trans.:
For the dust returns to dust,
as it has been.
And the spirit returns to God,
who gave it.)


Opa,
Ruhe in Frieden.
Ich werde dich niemals vergessen.
Deine Shirley~
