Inktober Day 21: Chains
Sabriel lay on the bricks and smiled up at the cat, blinking back tears. The cat twitched and turned its head ever so slightly to look at her, revealing bright, green eyes.
"Hello, puss," croaked Sabriel, coughing as she staggered once more to her feet and walked forward, groaning and creaking with every step. She reached down to pat the cat, and froze--for as the cat thrust its head up, she saw the collar around its neck and the tiny bell that hung there. The collar was only red leather, but the Charter-spell on it was the strongest, most enduring, binding that Sabriel had ever seen or felt--and the bell was a miniature Saraneth. The cat was no cat, but a Free Magic creature of ancient power.
"Abhorsen," mewed the cat, its little pink tongue darting. "About time you got here."
Sabriel stared at it for a moment, gave a little sort of moan and fell forward in a faint of exhaustion and dismay.
-Sabriel, by Garth Nix

My latest illustration which features Sabriel and Mogget from the Abhorsen series by Garth Nix! This was one of my favorite series growing up so it was a lot of fun to draw! If you're into fantasy and looking for a new series to read, I recommend it!
This piece is also this month's art club reward on Patreon. If you want to get a metal print of this sent to you in the mail, be sure to pledge the Art Club tier on Patreon before Nov 1st!

Another reason why I love the Abhorsen Trilogy: all the young women are competent individuals who know they have limits and think they've reached them but then find the strength to push past them, while the only male POV character is a whiny privileged teenager who seriously fucks up before realizing his own strengths and valuing what he's good at (which, surprise, is not what anyone expected him to be good at).

Nothing like finishing a (n audio)book and trilogy all at once that wrecks your soul when you’re meant to me sleeping because you have class in the morning
I finished Abhorsen finally. I started reading Sabriel when I was about 13 or 14? I never finished the trilogy due to many reason I wont dump about. But i felt compelled (with a subscription to an audiobook thing and finding out they were narrated by tim curry) to revist the trilogy and finish it.
It tore me to shreds.
Absolutely. If you’ve read the books, you know how it ends. I am a disaster now. Very snotty, puffy, and phlegmy.
Cant wait to experience the rest of the books i didnt know existed until a few years ago!
I should sleep now….

The ship Sabriel (Sam/Gabriel) annoys me, not for the normal reasons like perceived lack of chemistry between the characters or it just not being your thing, but because Sabriel is the Abhorsen!
And every time I see it written I wanna go read that book again 😆

"Just do as you're told," Mogget said firmly. "Think of yourself as Abhorsen's sworn sword-hand, if it makes you feel better, though in this present era, you'll find common sense is more important than honor.
"Very well", Touchstone muttered, humbly. He stood up and put on the underclothes and shirt, but couldn't get the trousers past his heavily muscled thighs.
"There's a kilt and leggings in one of the chests back there," Mogget said after watching Touchstone hopping around on one leg, the other trapped in too-tight leather."
if you, as an author, aren't introducing your male love interests like this, what are you even doing with your life?
(from Sabriel, by Garth Nix)
