Editing The Simurgh (section)

==Trivia==
*This article includes information from [[Teneral e.5|a chapter]] that Wildbow said he would likely change later.
* Wildbow commented on March 30, 2015, that the Simurgh is the only [[Endbringer]] he has not seen drawn accurately yet because artists tend to under-scale the size of her wings.<ref name="SV art">As an aside, and this is in no way a reference or meant to give offense to your top tier art skills, B.H., the Simurgh is the only Endbringer I haven't seen drawn accurately.<br><br>Much of the time her wings are just far too short, and she's smiling. - Wildbow in [https://forums.sufficientvelocity.com/posts/3136882 Sufficient Velocity]</ref> However, he later commented on June 3, 2016, that he was a huge fan of the [https://www.deviantart.com/damiendraidecht/art/Simurgh-ziz-604023614 illustration] by [http://damiendraidecht.deviantart.com/ DamienDraidecht] on DeviantArt because of the intensity and scale of the wings.<ref>I'm a huge fan of this rendition, because it really does have the sheer intensity and scale of the wings that many other images have lacked.  Nice work, damien. - Wildbow [https://www.deviantart.com/comments/1/604023614/4142228820 on DeviantArt]</ref>
* "[https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simurgh Simurgh]" is a benevolent, mythical flying creature. It is sometimes equated with other mythological birds such as Arabic Anqā, Persian Homā or Turkic Kerkés, Semrug, Semurg, Samran, and Samruk.
* "[https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ziz Ziz]" is the third creature in what can be called an Abrahamic trinity of beasts. As Leviathan is first among the creatures of the water, and Behemoth is first among the creatures of the land, Ziz is first among the creatures of the air. This serves as a larger clue to the Endbringers' constructed nature that they deliberately tap into these belief structures.
* In [https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isaiah_6 Isaiah 6:2], above the throne of God  "...were [https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seraph seraphim], each with six wings: With two wings they covered their faces, with two they covered their feet, and with two they were flying." In the Bible "feet" often stood as a euphemism for genitalia (Deut 28: 57) (Ezekiel 16:25). Simurgh's multiple wings and attempt at modesty might, therefore, be a reference to Biblical Seraphim.
