“She’d found armor below the keep. Beautiful, pale gold armor that gleamed like a summer dawn. Holding back her braided hair, a diadem lay flush against her head. Not a diadem, but a piece of armor. Part of some ancient set for a lady long since buried. A crown for war, a crown to wear into battle. A crown to lead armies. He’d never seen such a glorious sight. In every land, in every battle, he had never seen anything as glorious as Aelin before the throat of the siege tower, holding the line. Aelin smiled grimly. She’d bring them all down. Then Erawan. And then she’d unleash herself upon Maeve. Not helpless. Not contained. Never again. Death had been her curse and her gift and her friend for these long, long years. She was happy to greet it again under the golden morning sun.” ~Here’s my sketch of Aelin during the siege at Anielle! Hopefully I can colour her digitally later on. This is my last most recent drawing of 2018.
