Description

From my story: Sevaril - "The Chronicles of Korr". (Chapter 2) Iphis walked near the man she only have seen in rare glimpses when she was a child. Like a moth caught to the light she moved closer but still alert. Could she trust this man or...? Bar maid: Keep your hands to your own body, Ben Tugwell!!... As the sound suddenly silenced in the Inn - as it happens sometimes- the slap of her hand to his cheek sound very loud and clear!... Iphis hardly took noticed of it as she now stood at the table with her target. Iphis: Do you have a name?... The man: Nightshade...that's what my friends calls me... Iphis: Well, Nightshade - I have a lots of questions which I no longer wish to be kept hidden for me... A man named Draco brought my to my foster father and his wife when I was only few days old... Nightshade: I know...but asking for this man here is not only something that bring you in danger - but a lot of other people, too...! Iphis: I won't repeat his name again, then...but can you get me to him?...The last three years after my dear, now late forst father told me about him, I have dreamed of meeting this man and let him speak and tell about ME... My teacher Pentwahir, by some called a wizard, taught me a lot...lots of things and knowledge that wouldn't be told normally to a farmers daughter...I know much about this empire, yet I only have been outside once from my village... Pentwahir brought a weird ghostly man, Vorn, to me when I was nine...I do not believe he's a real human but a spirit of some kind...he learned me to practice and use weaponry and I got strong, so I can defend myself... Nightshade: I do not doubt about your skills but since you left your home all kinds of enimies are closing in...Some extreme dangerous and some not even human... Iphis: Tell me while we move away from here, Nightshade...I want to meet this man before anything else!... Nightshade: I know...but we try to secure this city best as we can right now...Your arrivel here can't be kept as a secret anymore...the man on the floor...And young lady, we have to leave this town as soon as we can...Here he is...! Slowly steps against the wooden floor from heavy boots got nearer. Iphis turned around and saw a tall thin and bony man. His face was scarred and his nose broken what seems to have happened several times. His hands were mighty big and he, in a weird way, looked impressive and strong, wearing the northern peoples rough warm clothes and his sword and two knives looked like he used them all well, if needed... Nightshade: This is Jago, one of my most trusted men....What news?.... (to be continued) This is the second Chapter in my fantasy story. I have "compressed" it here so it fit into the images. I did a lot of work to do the light right - as always, I think it is one of the fun thing, getting the light just right! As in the real life other dramas going on for others as the two in the background. It wasn't intended but the whole scene got a some sort of romantic look. Her young interest and his calm friendly look. But it looks right to me. You know if you read a book and see a movie you know from the start: These two...! Do I need to say ZOOM!? And I thank you for all the comments, critics and sometimes ideas! Have a great pleasant week! JohnnyC / Rhanagaz

Alot going on. Good picture. I'd be lieing if I said I read your story but good idea. My excuse is its 12.40 in the morning but if its good I will read your back catalogue. I think I will like medieval fantasy more than sci-fi little ants but maybe you will add those later!
