On social media, I've seen many people saying that the "V" in Empress of Light's sprite isn't a smile, but rather her nose. I'd like to know if it was ever stated that it was her nose, or if fans are simply believing it to be.
What do you guys think? Does Empress of Light have a large nose or not? Is that "V" on her face a nose or a smile?
Sorry for the "PC" flair; I couldn't find a question tag, so I used that one, but actually the question is for all platforms that have Empress of Light. And sorry again if the English is wrong, I don't know English so I use Google Translate to translate.

I have personally always seen it as a smile. I think a smile better fit her “theme” flashy, magic, rainbows, smiles.
I always interpreted it as a smile. But upon close look it actually make more sense for it to be a nose so yeah it’s a nose.
It’s certainly a nose
:>
YOU RUINED IT FOR ME WHY
Canonically, yes, but we don’t have to accept it
I think I’ve heard someone on the dev team incorrectly assumes the smug smile is a large nose.
How is it not a smile? Where would her mouth be if it’s a nose?
She’s looking straight not down, you should be able to see her mouth..
I literally can’t see a nose
It’s her smile
^v^
It’s a normal sized nose
I prefer to see it as a smile.
So, unless there is a non sprite official art of her… It’s a smile.
