DLW: Lover's Promise

Third another concept art piece for my original story. The trilogy I'm working on is called DragonLords. The first book (where this scene takes place) is called "The Awakening."

This scene depicts Emlyn Tugwell saying goodbye to the memory of her lover and promising she'll avenge him. Emlyn Tugwell is a complex character. Not only is she one of the last Dragon-Lords, but she's also keeping the most secrets. She hides in plain sight and keeps her cards close to her chest.

Though this piece, I wanted to represent her painful goodbye to the man she loved. In order to become an instrument of vengance, then she must cast aside her pain and weild an armor of cool rage. This is why her face is so gentle, because she knows this is the only moment of weakness she's allowed.

Emlyn is one of the few that understands the true circumstances of Khyle's death. He didn't die by the hands of their supposed enemies... he was betrayed; taken out for the sake of a cause. The fact that he was sacrificed as a pawn, became unacceptable to her. If her enemies determined Kyhle was a pawn, then she vows to become the enraged Queen of the field; sweeping off every single king across the board if they stand in her way.
