Barren Field by AraDolls

Long before Ryanne became leader of the black Knights, or before she even became a soldier at all, she was the eldest daughter of a poor farmer's family. Trapped in the "dust bowl" of the Black Realm, the dry plains in the east of the country, she grew up surrounded by vast nothing and the constant fear of starving looming above her and her family. One day she left this place and her family behind, wearing the uniform of a dead knight she had found in the fields, in hopes of finding a better life. A bit over two years ago I commissioned this outfit by @ponivpopone on Instagram (time flies). I always wanted to have an outfit for Ryanne that shows who she was before she became a soldier, and I was very thrilled when this finally came true! However, since then I had looked for the perfect location to take pictures in. I wanted a dead, dry and vast field but am sadly living the middle of a city and very limited with my transportation options. Last year in October I finally got an opportunity to take these pictures, but sadly it was an absolute mess. It was incredibly windy, too windy even for this motive, and my lens kept on causing problems. I came back from the field completely caked in dirt and with pictures that didn't really satisfy me at all. However, I decided to finally look into the folder again and see what I can do. Not sure how many of the set I will edit, but we'll see :'D Ara Ryanne Kenway - Iplehouse Rebecca with Soom Chalco hooves
