Flames of the Exiled
Countless prayers cast into silent skies from under cold clouds or silver starlight seem to be left utterly unanswered. The skies remain silent, and the woodland wolves bring hell, and all its devils, to the unsuspecting child. Thus, in time all kingdoms are doomed to be ruled by spells of fear, sorrow and pain …
​
Still, the children pray. The clouds gather, the woods darken, the wind dies and the children pray.

Bit of Background
Here's a bit about my project's journey so far ...
When I was eight, one of my brothers told me I should create a story by stapling together my drawings of 'Peter, Son of Aragorn'. That story became the first chapter of a larger story that, when I was eleven, I decided to type into a document on the family computer. A few weeks later, I decided to detach the story from Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings (though, as one will inevitably find if they ever attempt to compose a fantasy epic, it is nearly impossible to detach such stories from Tolkien's influence). I began to build a different fantasy world for it, and in the years since then, my project has grown and transformed many times. It is now quite close, I believe, to becoming a thing somewhat intelligible.

So, if plunging into a world full of old monsters, fey magic and thrilling mystery sounds fun to you, then stick around and check out some of the bits and bobs I'm preparing to post!
