#Damen of Akielos

[theoshn]

oh no i love them 😭

I stared this like a year ago and then came back to it the other night. I’m so glad I did. Modern AU Capri is finally out of my head, I will not apologize. They are your problem now. ❤️

I hate being a nerd cause what do you mean i have to link my support cast of ultra niche characters to literally anything I’m currently doing. Why am i sitting here watching pacific rim going: “hmm, i wonder what kind of jaegers the cast of the captive prince trilogy would fight in.” OR if im I’m watching house of the dragon: “oh Damen would totally be Vermithor’s rider and Tessarion would be bonded with Aimeric.” (I have a list in my notes app thanks for asking). LIKE GIRL SHUT UP YOU HAVE CLASSES TOMORROW.

I made a little captive prince dustjacket for myself hehe ✨️

I was a little frustrated that I couldn't get the polish captive prince special editions 😔 (And the new US covers weren’t out yet, but I will definetly get those now!!)

So I went: 'Fine. I'll do it myself."

I don't know what got into me, but I started to add more and more to this and it ended up taking me 60 hrs 💀

Still not satisfied with everything (especially the font and frame) but it's ok, maybe I'll come back to that a little later ✨️

!Not everything is super accurate since it has been some time since I read the books and I (again 😭) didn't have them with me, while working on this!

laurent: this is it. i am giving my life, surrendering to my unjust execution, so that my comrades may stand a chance at victory. i will die the weaker man i've always been, disgraced in front of my countrymen, robbed of my royal title and pride. unloved. misunderstood. and undefended.

Don't expect it to be particularly explicit though 😅 (I feel like my art rarely ever is)
