Of Birds and Tea (sketch) (Patreon)

I've missed the autumn, and wanted to draw a full image of Chime at her little makeshift scatterboard hut near the hollow town of Blackpine, taking in one of the few lovely parts of living in 'the sorrow' that is the dark-touched areas from Whiterook.

The tea itself is a survival technique.  It keeps the eyes of the Lycan from her.  It also makes her susceptible to injury, and visions brought by interrupted sleep.

But Shadowbark tastes lovely enough, if bitter, and when one can't fly for fear of the shades in the sky and trees, you take in the brief peace while you can.
