Inayva Mon Banner [Sketches] (Patreon)

L: An epigraph illustration for an upcoming article about Inayva Mon! This one was tough to conceptualize at first — I played around with a few ideas: Inayvans fighting tiger-like demons, a kodo in philosopher’s robes, or even a shoux (demon) hunter.

In the end, I went with this: a young dangan, a wandering priest who travels from village to village, helping locals and performing sacred duties.
And somewhere along the road… he encounters something unexpected. A dangerous enemy? Or a powerful friend?
