Somewhere, in one of the inner gardens of Halruaa's Silver Palace and behind closed doors, the Prince of that land and the second-in-command of a cold, distant one were about to be joined in marriage beneath a sacred tree. Their adopted children, Reno and Evie, held the ribbons that would bind their parents for the rest of their lives; Ser Aethelred would pronounce the words.
A wolf and a dragon were about to swear eternal fealty once again, officially, before Tyr and in blood.
A cute piece to release on the summer solstice and during Pride Month! Remember love is love and nothing else matters.🌈✨
I'm so happy to have found a roleplaying partner so like-minded that I could marry a character like Alistair to hers, a character I've played for years and so terribly unsuitable for relationships I'd never have imagined to see him with someone.
The wedding, as you can see, is heavily inspired by that of Rhaenyra and Daemon Targaryen, but includes the handfasting typical of Norse culture, uniting Alistair, who is very inspired by it, and William, who is bound to dragons.
In any case, there are many things about this piece that I don't like about the technical aspects, lighting, and colors, but I worked on it nonstop and with little time available, and I even accidentally merged all the layers at one point, so I really rage-quitted😬🤣
In conclusion, I wanted to thank my RP partner again, who, despite the distance, I truly consider a friend. She made me rediscover writing and constantly gives me so much inspiration to make art, and I will always be grateful for it. Happy birthday again!🖤
