Rook's final act to save the world was pulling the Dread Wolf into the abyss of the Fade alongside her. Now - trapped in a ruined reality, wounded and bleeding, they are forced to confront the impossible consequences of their violence and their convictions.
This work was apart of @thelighthouse-server's Lyrium Dagger Exchange! I had the pleasure of gifting this to @junaart (who is an incredibly talented artist, so please check her out!) It was my first time participating in a gift exchange ~ and now I'm eager to do another one 👀
“The union of two beings who refused redemption.”
“Two broken creatures. A shattered god in all but name. Not held together by love or mercy or hope. Only consequence. Only punishment. Only the promise that neither would allow the other to fall, or rise, or escape.”
“A wraith following a fallen god. A consequence shadowing regret, carrying every wound they had given, and every wound they hadn't yet.”
There’s something about a necromancer, (un)death, following around a god, an entity of millennia old regret, “crowns and skulls, glory and decay” :) two creatures that never learned when to stop :3 Painful wounds mended with painful healing >:3
It’s so perfect, thank you again for this wonderful gift!
