Collateral Damage

Sometimes, no matter how deserving your victim is of whatever revenge you'd like to take on him...the collateral damage just isn't worth it. That is, if you're any kind of decent person...


An illustration of a scene I wrote. Basically I'tsarlan and his mate, Lyrrehn, were in hiding for a few years after he fell from power. There was a huge price on both their heads, both sides of the raging civil war wanted them dead. But they found some solace and some happiness. Lyrrehn had a baby and things were good as they could be for a while, even though I'tsarlan always knew his enemies would find them, that they'd take him and Lyrrhen and probably kill his son, Tsaro.

.....so yeah, this is that scene where the bounty hunters have found I'tsarlan, and are torturing him to get him to tell them where Lyrrehn is. And in runs Tsaro to try and protect his daddy. Not good.

I love this scene though because it's the point where I'tsarlan stops being a coward for good, and starts becoming pretty hardcore.
I did this piece entirely with my tablet, not with a paper sketch. I am uber proud of myself for it. :3

I'll post the actual writing later on.
