Ill wind blows by Fatchaos

Ill wind blows

Fatchaos

A few takes on Earthym War Cleric's diary:

... we finally found the fort. There was something ill in the wind. Something that burned down it's way in your nostrils all the way to your lungs. Like the air was... poisonous. There was still a faint trail of smoke rising behind the palisade wall. The northern-most guard tower was completely destroyed, fallen down after the fire devoured the supports, no doubt. There were no guards on the walls. The most superstitious of soldiers among us wanted to leave, deeming this place cursed. Morons. Lieutenant ordered us to move closer, so, we did.

... we spent a couple of hours making makeshift ladders, the damn gate was locked, no one answered. What the hell had happened here? There were no signs of an enemy platoon attacking, the palisade walls were mostly intact. Eventually, we managed to climb the ladders and... the sight was out of a nightmare. The entire barracks was slaughtered right on the courtyard. At this point, some of our men were praying, refusing to enter the fort. I decided to go on first, there might be wounded in there, and I had vowed to help them, and that is what I will do.

... I have never seen anything like this before. The wounds these soldiers had, were... disturbing, to say at least. A lot of cutting wounds that could have come from a sword, a very large sword, that is, or similar, men being cleaved in half. Limbs missing. But that was not the worst, no. Their faces. Some of them had no faces. They were... molten away. Clearly, there was strong acid used in here, but how? And in such a great quantity? I examined some of the bodies closer, and they not only had corroded spots on their faces, but on their clothes, their armor, everywhere. Like it had rained pure acid. Now I am feeling we should get out of here, fast. There were no survivors, but it was clear whatever had caused this, did not even bother killing all of these poor men. They were poisoned and left to die, as I learned after examining the bodies found inside the barracks that were not burned in the fire.

I truly wish these were humble men. Or they have to face another hell after their deaths.

Dark Venom Mistress; Lavianora, I can nearly hear her saying "Come and get me...! "

It is done, at last, and got a little background smack on you too. Not that anyone is interested~

Anyway. I really like how this turned out, and I crossed my comfort zone and tried to make a strong light-source from the back this time, not the usual stuff where it comes from the front or sides.

Also! An actual background! Woo! Yeah, it sucks, but... it's there!

And lastly. I loved designing this new armor and scythe for her. Truly loved.

Hope you like her new picture, that is all!
