Amilias did so, and, lo! he fell in two halves; for the sword had cut sheer through the vaunted war-coat, and cleft in twain the great body incased within.

The master, Mimer, sheathed his sword, and walked slowly down the hillside to the plain.

I see you, I know you're here. Behind every tree. Behind every stone. Your love shields me.

Be kind — so they said. As we are but shooting stars in the wind. A breath of life, a whisper in the mist. O for so long have I wanted for this.

There will be text & There will be words. But there won't be any sound. Only the ones you wish for: those you hear in your heart. Those you feel in your soul.

The rain dries. The tree grows. Deep roots — in the marsh. I hide in plain sight the secret knowledge to our heart. For you to be a witness to me up until the end.

Long & Dark days are ahead. Fear not. We are together, hands in hands, until the end of the world. The walls may crack and the roofs may tear away. We are here to stay.

I see you. There is still your smell in the house. I hear you calling me "my son" after a long trip in the woods. I remember every moment. Would you be proud now? Would you turn your face away?

Information

While Druto reflects on density in text, Big Druto pushes things further, as to become a study of density in larger sizes. It addresses white space in large titles as an issue. Big Druto has a bigger still x-height than Druto, which allows for minimal leading. It has squarish shapes, with less humanistic swing, that give an impression of fullness in text. Its diacritics are attached. It is overall made to look strong in large sizes, with low contrast and barely any descenders, while still remaining legible in smaller sizes.

Big Druto Display is for even larger sizes, with still less white spaces remaining. So much so, that it is designed with negative tracking. Each glyph is designed, each terminal and each bowl is cut on the nose to create a uniform pattern of gaps and overlap. An elegant and systematic use of negative tracking, which cannot be achieved with tracking with an off-the-shelf font. Big Druto Display, although being of very low contrast, also brings contrast back. Negatives spaces become thin lines and start playing the role of high contrast, giving a subtle display quality.
