HEY GUYS! It's day 6 - Hold On!

So here's something a bit different for you!

Billy once helped save Baltazar's life when they were puppies. Baltazar was out looking for his parents alone when he slipped and fell into the Gold Marrow river (yes, it's a reference to Up and Ahead's town name!).

Billy heard him and rushed to help. The little hound always admired the noble families of Oddwind, so saving one of them was an honour to him. I don't think they ever saw each other much after that, until adulthood, when Billy moved out of his family's farm and into Oddwind. The rest is history!

I would absolutely LOVE to hear your thoughts on this! Its seriously what keeps me going!

Nice bit of backstop. I like that about stories and it's great tales of adventure and heroism.

I'm struggling a bit to describe how I feel about this. All I can say is that this is both adorable and touching, and as always, this scene is beautifully done! I really like how you did the water. More interesting backstory! I wonder why Baltazar was looking for his parents. There's still so much I don't know about all of these characters, so much about this world I haven't seen yet, and I'm learning something new all the time! You've put so much detail into it all, and it just feels so alive and immersive! It really makes me want to dive even deeper into it!

I loving the art style of this painting, and the story it tells is so touching. I love that we get to see a little back story for these characters.
