Flesh Canvas (Trenches)

Once the hunting for Mishchyas (मिश्चयस) began, there were different form of experimentations that took place. The Volutean people at the forefront with their inception of making use of the dead or tormented Mishchyas.

The earliest record is that of Udang (उड़ंग), an ancient artist known for making art using knives. Once Mishchyas hunting began, their skin was hacked off their bodies. While their flesh was barely appetizing, Udang figured their skin layer can be used as Canvas. (Skin was smooth and had multiple layers.) Udang only had to use his empty knife, and the blood would automatically begin to pour from the skin, dark blue in colour.

It wasn’t until the Shitr Empire (शित्र) realised harvesting dead one’s bones for blade that Udang realised different boneblades make for excellent tools. He began submerging the Mishchyas skin into different colours; and then using boneblades from different regions made different colours seep out separately.

Udang began a cherished artist. His heart art even helped in making friendly connections between different regions.
