Maeve is an eons old demon queen and she got humbled by a 20 year old k*nky king with daddy issues and a 19 year old arsonist that just lost 99% of her power.
Another day, another slay for the all powerful book nerds 💅🏽
“A rather lax king, but with the peace being upheld, why wouldn’t he be?”
The current King Dorian is the well-meaning, hedonistic monarch of the Kingdom of Greenhorne. He somehow always finds the time to throw parties at his castle every other day or so, and grand festivals every other week, organized with the help of his Royal Guard.
His “Royal Guard” spend more of their time on preparing these outrageous festivals over any actual guarding, and though it got tedious, with the very handsome pay from the King, they all find the work worth it for now. After all, the King would’ve been thrown out and replaced with another, democratically-elected monarch a looong time ago if none of them liked him at all…
I don’t draw older people that often and it really shows O_O
That aside I don’t really have much else to say about him at the moment? I’m still figuring out how the Greenhorne plot will play out in my verse 😔 (and if I’ll go with it but a little to the left or go for a new story entirely)
With that said I did have a lot of fun drawing this out!!

I honestly believe in hospitals there's like this balance, you know? It's like when one person dies, another person gets a chance to live. I like to call it the Circle of Life.
