Scroll down to find the picture somewhere in Chapter 3 of Ephraim’s Story. I forgot the horses! I guess I wasn’t confident enough to draw them. The left side of the page is a quick summary of what they say during that scene in the game. As you can see I didn’t follow it exactly. I find it’s smoother to read and less predictible to the reader that way. I mean, EVERYONE and their kitchen sink knows what Lyn says in the Prologue of Rekka no Ken in the game. Also it avoids what one fanfic author, through Erk, called RDOO’s: Random Displays of Obviousness.
I finished Dreigiau. I’m going to try and hold off on Darkstar if I possibly can. I want to do other things with my life, too! There’s a Zela costume to work on and Warhammer scenery to glue together! And of course piano practice.
Ephraim and Seth. Not much to say, except that they both have short legs but Ephraim somehow looks okay despite that, and Seth has a way-cool coat. And they’re both not exactly like the official art.
This is undoubtedly one of my favourite – no, my favourite Fire Emblem 8: The Sacred Stones pictures. It’s called The Prince’s Despair after one of my favourite songs from the game, which is the desperate, longing, turmoil of Prince Lyon’s theme, except when he’s been taken over by the evil Demon King. The music inspired a slightly different picture, though.
Whoo! Ephraim gets a chance to be cool! He’s facing down Valter the Moonstone outside of the fortress Renvall, which Ephraim just captured with… three men including himself. I don’t really count Orf-… Orson. Yeah, that’s his name. People in the know will know why. Renvall’s supposed to be in the middle of a sort of Crater Lake place. Oh, and Ephraim rules.
