My entry for @ssnp_art ‘ DTIYS on Instagram 💙👑
‘“You will not find them in this sky or any other.”
His heart strained as he understood. As the loss of those twelve fierce, brilliant lives carved another hole within him. One he would not forget, one he would honor. Silently, he crossed the balcony. Manon did not back away as he slid his arms around her.
“I am sorry,” he said into her hair.
Tentatively, slowly, her hands drifted across his back. Then settled, embracing him.
“I miss them,” she whispered, shuddering.
Dorian only held her tighter, and let Manon lean on him for as long as she needed, Abraxos staring toward that blasted bit of earth on the plain, toward the mate who would never return, while the city below celebrated.’
I loved playing around with the brushes and textures. This moment in KOA broke my heart so I hope I did it justice with this fanart!
