Here, have some anatomically really bad Will xd whilst I hopefully work on some other better art .
It's epilogue time in the campaign, he survived his last trip to the capital city and is now returning back to the mansion he stayed in after last fight.
He will certanly need some '20 years later' wardrobe redesign 🤍
As they made their way down the road as a party, Beltrim did his usual ritual of checking on everyone’s well-being.
First was Tasenka, checking on her in general and making sure she had enough supplies for her craft. She happily nodded before giving reassurance and pressing onward. He always liked how simple and straightforward she was.
Next was Hamboni. He answered ‘feeling achy, but nothing more than usual’. It was a given being he was a human that was pretty up in years. With a reassuring smile, Beltrim gave the wizard a pat on the shoulder- hand gently pulsing with radiant energy.
“We’ll find a place to stop for a short rest soon. I’ll bring it up with the others.”
Hamboni grumbled a bit before giving the paladin the appreciation, despite his discomfort and did his best to push forward.
After him was the newest arrival, Anemone. Glancing up at him, she smiled as she was warmly greeted by the paladin.
“Hello Beltrim! I’m feeling quite well today!”
“ Great! If you need anything, please do not hesitate to ask”
The moth-kin nodded fiercely before walking ahead with a little bounce in her step. He was glad that she was taking well to the many personalities the group had.
Following her was Aeris. Like the rest, Beltrim gave her a warm greeting asking how she was. She craned her neck up at the man just about twice her size and met his gaze wearing a grin.
“I’m doing okay! There’s not too much to report at the moment.. Ask me later when we rest!”
Tilting his head slightly, Beltrim was curious about what was on her busy little mind.
“Huh? What do you mean?”
“Oh! I’m going to work on visual improvements for my turrets. Actually, if you aren't busy later, I’m going to borrow you for a little help.”
“Well, I’m more than happy to assist in what little way I can”
Happy with the response, Aeris beamed as she thanked the paladin. Before he continued, “If there’s anything else you need at the moment, let me know”.
As he finished speaking, the half-dragon began to move ahead and check on the path. Beltrim was caught off guard as he felt a tug at the hem of his tunic.
“Actually-”, Aeris’ voice fell on his ears before his combat senses kicked in. The paladin took in a slow breath before turning back to the gnome.
“One more thing!... I just wanted one more moment of your undivided attention”
He studied her beautifully freckled face before speaking, “Why? There’s no need, Aera. You always have my attention.”
Towards the end of his declaration a warm, dopey grin spread across Beltrim’s face. Aeris’ expression softened as a gentle blush dusted her cheeks.
“Good.”
Aeris ducked her head down before moving to catch up to Anemone and change the topic of conversation. Beltrim noted she wore a little smile as she walked away and chuckled to himself before checking the route as planned.
