The translucent green bands are washing out the text on "were" and "alone," making them hard for me to read or even register them at a glance.

The background illustration and the word placement in relation to it are strong, drawing my eyes and interest.

PM me some details and I'll cook something up for you! :-)

I love tortles. I play a tortle wizard in the other D&D campaign I'm in. Have you seen my art of him?

:-(

She looks very sweet. I had a tortoiseshell once that I remember fondly. Does she meow or meep?

I think I spent about 6 to 8 hours on this one, start to finish, split between a couple days.

Thanks, HbD! :-) There's obviously a lot of influence on him from wizards like Gandalf the Grey, Merlin, and Elminster. I'm fond of classic high fantasy, but also more modest "rustic fantasy," and Roan is a blending of the two.

Thank you, Rachel! It took quite a lot of time to get the look of him that I wanted. I had written his background before I started this, but working on the art helped me pull it all together to form a character. :-)

Thank you, Steve. :-)

I liked this one, strong atmosphere. Well done, Sir!

Thank you. :-) I think the simple, honest language of the narrator worked well in this one to both convey a tone of stone age sorcery and a scene of growing attraction.
