WOW that is an amazing drawing … *applauds* I love the facial expression.

Thank you! I’m actually just coming out of art block and it feels so great to create stuff I like again XD I’ve always struggled with expressions so I went to the other extreme.

@rose-colored-fancy that he is lol

I feel like Sasha and Basil (and quite possibly Skia as well) are all shockingly obtuse, but in completely opposite ways.  Sasha is so obtuse that he interprets basic politeness as attraction (because no one is ever nice to him, so it must mean she’s attracted, right?), while Basil is so obtuse he would in…[Read more]

Aaaand SE ate my post 😐

@Calidris that is a great idea. Thank you. I should have thought of that. 😅

They’re simultaneously the best and worst characters to happen upon each other 😂

Absolutely. 😂 👌

Also, @rose-colored-fancy WOW that is an amazing drawing … *applauds* I love the facial expression.

”they can be… violent.” Pia replied. “Although the clans are usually more destructive with each other than with strangers.”

“What’s wrong with the natives?” Ellie asked

@crazywriter,

I hath not forgottenest thou. XD I’m trying to find time to read this all in one go, which is challenging. I’m working on it, though! 😀

She shook her head. “We aren’t out yet. And besides…” She shrugged, “The Natives may find us first…”

Julian smiled, “see, I knew you would be the one to get us out of here.”

@mamaauthoress you’re fine!  If it, helps, I like to back up any writing I post because SE sometimes eats them lol.  I’ve learned that the hard way, as have many others here 😭

Also, I haven’t been writing lately, but I’m going to try to write Basil’s response to Ruan soon.  I’m very, very interested to see where this dynamic goes lol.  The…[Read more]

GUYS I’M NOT IGNORING YOU — MY POSTS ARE REFUSING TO GO THROUGH

Well … if you can see this post, then I guess SE has been merciful enough to let this one pass. >_<

ALSO I drew an updated portrait of Liorah!

Horrible brat gremlin I love her so much XD

This was actually meant as an expression study so I really pushed the ✨rage✨ XD

@inkhorn

Hmmm…it was a little hard following your idea, but when I understood what you said, I have one thing to say, “WHY?!”

Ay, sorry, it was a bit hard to explain XD

Though I do understand (breaks my heart to say so, “Don’t hate me for this Aydin!”), I have thought of having Cahira (MC) make the ultimate sacrifice to really rub her character ar…

She stared back with a piercing look. “Well you obviously can’t get out the way we got here.” She sighed and turned to the path, “Follow the path, it’s going north so we will still reach the river at some point.”

“That’s interesting but highly irritating. All of this is!”

“Calm down Ellie” Julian said with a smirk, “New Princess seems to know a lot about this place. She probably knows the way out.” He turned to her and stared into her eyes, “don’t you?”

Pia cocked her head and eyed the walls. “That makes since, actually, the shock. The forest above is almost always storming, and lightning is very common here. It leaves these veins in the ground, like the bolt is still shooting downward.” Kallun smiled at her, she was always a little brainy, but rarely did any in her storeroom of knowledge come out.

Julian hesitated for a second. “Uh, yeah I’m fine.” He got off the ground and stood next to Kallun. “Just a headache, like I said. I guess I landed wrong”

Ellie nodded and walked up to the walls of the tunnel. It was easy to see that the blue glow was coming from bright blue specks in the stone wall. They lit up the way just barely enough to see…[Read more]

Kallun stood and walked over to Julian, “Are you alright, friend?” He asked softly.

Pia’s hand tightened around her pike, “No, but this is probably a tunnel made by the natives of the forest. The Allawn tribe. The tribe is formed of many clans, each clan has a certain color and dresses with beads or feathers of that color to distinguish themsel…[Read more]

“shh… I’m over here” a voice whispered behind them.

Ellie spit the sand out of her mouth “Oh, Julian, you’re alright!”

“yeah. just got a headache”

Ellie stood and brushed the sand off her clothes. “does anyone know what this place is?”
