To be almost completely immortal can be seen as a curse to many. But under the watchful eyes of the King, the Children have learned to make the best of it...
I AM ON A ROLL! I'm not sure whether I prefer this one over the previous sketch, But This one just makes me soooo GOSH DARN happy! :D. I know I've been into the more darker parts of the TWHUTH lore but this one is just...AHHH.
So yeah, live, laugh, love. Mesmerize and endure. Play and sing and share life together. The Children of the Moor certainly know how to live semi-immortality to the fullest!
PREVIOUS SKETCH (yes, there's more)
'They Who Hide Under Top Hats' (TWHUTH) - ON TUMBLR
0 notes
The Circulion have blood that runs with the Flame, yet they have the flesh of Man. They are as much of the Children of the Moor as they are of Man. Yet how such a union came to be? Such knowledge lies lost within the whispers of the past. But all is known is that, once the scourge of Man committed old sins and drew back the Moor and the Children, the Woodland Folk rose up to succeed them. Descended from the blood of Moor, descended from the Flame and the King. yet living amongst Man, minds separated by the flesh.
OK I ONCE AGAIN TAKE BACK WHAT I SAID EARLIER. I tried drawing something simple and It got completely out of hand. BUT STILL I LOVE IT.
I have included some background lore and some foreshadowing for future chapters of 'TWHUTH' here. I included the Arylmoor, The City of Hatlynshire, and the Mirror! This is one of my favorite drawings by far! (I know I said that last time, but I take it back)

Even when starved of the Flame which gives them life and even amidst the looming madness and depravity. The Children find solace amid the gloom...
OK i take back what I said. THIS one is by far one of my favorites. Still hellbent on exploring the darkest sides of the history of TWHUTH. I might make something on the connection between the Circulions and the Children of the Moor. Who knows! :D
And no, i don't have a problem, maybe...

For all was never always well in paradise. The King watches over the Children from their shadows, and weeps in their name.
Ok, I'm starting to think i might have a problem. But the ideas just keep coming.
This one references a darker side of the lore of TWHUTH that I am dying to explore.
Previous sketch i made (because why not?)

I didn’t think about it like that. But now that you say it…
I see it
“Slave to the will of the Moor, slave to the will of the King,
His radiant mark we adorn, his glorious hymn we sing,
As his eternal children we stand, from the Flame did we he bring,
We are the keepers of his holy land, these woods of forever spring.”
(spoiler alert: possession by a god-like entity is not fun)
HEY! More lore for upcoming chapters in TWHUTH! This will probably be the last drawing for a while since I'm already preparing a SNEAK PEEK coming later this week. This is probably one of my favorites so far tho! Anyways, See you! :D

SNEAK PEEK (Oh yeah, again): 'They Who Hide Under Top Hats'- Part XIV: The Ceremony
All eyes then turned to Laura. Lucian saw he face turn red. Charlotte gasped and looked at her sister with an expression of shock. “You knew?” she asked but Laura didn’t answer. She stayed silent for a few moments. She stared at Willow with a baffled look. A look that turned into burning fury as she then marched over to Willow and, to the shock of everyone, slapped her in the face.
“YOU WRETCHED LITTLE SNITCH!” she screamed as her slap almost made Willow fall over and trip on her skirt. The entire room erupted into uproar and arguing. Laura tried to hit Willow a second time but Charles swiftly grabbed her hand and stopped her. Charlotte then grabbed her by the waist and pulled her back, with Laura still struggling to get her vengeance. “HOW DARE YOU!” Laura shouted. Willow recovered from the slap and looked at Laura with look of outrage. “HOW DARE I?..."
NOTES: Just passed like 4.5K on chapter XIV. Not sure whether it will be long enough to split it again. I am still trapped in a snail's pace due to real life stuff so this one will take A WHILE. I'll still be posting other stuff while I write so no issue~ :)
Anyway, as you can see. SHIT TRULY GOES DOWN in this chapter. See you all soon!
HEY, YOU! Yeah, you. You like fantasy? You like fantasy with guns and fancy suits? Do you like free original stories RIGHT HERE ON TUMBLR? Well, if so why not try this one riiiight here! You won't regret it!

For context click here
Damn, third comic already. Life has left me so deprived of happiness that this (and twhuth) have become my one source of reliable joy. Feel free to bask in the dystopian implications of that. But hey, work may not be life but it sure makes me wanna keep living. :D

SNEAK PEEK (YEEEES!): They Who Hide Under Top Hats- Part XIV: The Ceremony
“Do you really rely on your pet to support you?” asked Alice, not impressed.
“Well excuse me for having someone to turn to when in need,” Benjamin said defensively. He then stroked the raven below its beak affectionately.
“What…is it…doing here?” Lucian stuttered. Benjamin and some of the others glared at him. “Oh don’t mind Maurice!” Benjamin said swiftly, “He’s just got some valuable information to tell us,”
“By that you mean, tell you,” said James. “Because for all we know it could all be baseless nonsense,”
“Are you doubting me?” asked Benjamin, once more on the defense. “Don’t tell me Joe over there has rubbed off on both of you as well,” he said pointing his finger at Joseph, who yawned out of boredom.
“Well he’s right, though!” said Alice. “According to Joseph, your sister is in on everything! How do we know that you and that black-feathered chicken aren’t?”
Both Maurice and Benjamin tilted took heads back, seemingly offended by that statement. “Well if you knew Lira like I do you wouldn’t be making such accusations,” said Benjamin plainly. He then seemed to go on a rant. “Believe me; she’d rather choke the life out of me than tell me anything. After all that training she went through even I’m not sure that isn’t some Gratousy spy DISGUISED AS MY SISTER!”
The room felt silent. “Hmm, seems all is not well in paradise, eh?” Lucian heard Willow whisper to Charles.
NOTES: ALMOST AT 3K! I have a test coming up soon so I'll be dialing back my pace even more in the coming days. But rest assured, I will be back to being a writing machine the moment that test is over.
Hey, gotta make time for real life, otherwise real life will make time for YOOOOU.
(also another comic coming tomorrow) :D
HEY, YOU! Yeah, you. You like fantasy? You like fantasy with guns and fancy suits? Do you like free original stories RIGHT HERE ON TUMBLR? Well, if so why not try this one riiiight here! You won't regret it!
