Kroashent Commission - Cerise de Rysel

Cerise was the average daughter of a clothmaking family in the city of Rysel, in the Cloth Cities.  With the failed rebellion and subsequent subjugation by neighboring Gallia fading from memory, Rysel had once again become a bustling, but quiet center of trade, industry and learning.  Cerise was fully expected to follow her parents, learning the traditional methods and how to operate the new clockwork loom that promised to put her family workshop on the economic map. 

But instead, the young girl began to show strange quirks and remarkable abilities.  It was found that she was Boermerzh, a human capable of drawing on the magical energy of the world to alter reality with Huderezh, or directed spellcasting.  The cloth merchant's daughter was whisked off to the University of Rysel, where she began to study under the direction of some of the most powerful and distinguished Similherez (Mages) under the Gallian Crown.  Cerise quickly adjusted to student life, splitting her time between her studies and enjoying the sounds of the street musicians wafting into her dormitory.

A master of linguisitics, Cerise hopes to become Feasa, a master of the magic of names.  She studies hard, but sometimes the curiosity and her own unmeasured power causes trouble for the apprentice mage!

Val's Notes:

Every once in a while, I get a uniquely exciting type of commission, adapting a commissioner's original character to show how they might appear in Alvez, the world of Kroashent.  I really enjoy these kind of commissions because they let me work with characters who are full of unrealized potential and a ton of passion, while also being able to build and share little glimpses of Alvez.  I really enjoy when people take an interest in my silly little stories and the characters within.

I've drawn "vanilla" Cerice quite a few times, including little Kroashent AUs with Kathalia, Gwae and her (completely coincidental) doppleganger, Marie!  (I thought about making her a distant cousin to codify the joke that the pair look so similar ;-) )  I wanted to make sure that I kept a lot of Cerice's inherent "feel" and identifying elements in Cerise's design, but also make her unique to the setting, a character in her own right.  I made a few versions and elements in sketches (all of which are posted to my Patreon!), to experiment a little.

I decided that Cerise needed to keep her boots, a cape, and her distinctive "demon's eye" brooch.  I gave her a unique little half-cape, which seems quite in style for Alvez, given how many characters seem to wear them, but went with a shoulderless mantle to contrast with her long pink gloves.  I added some details to her cape and boots to match with the heavily detailed fashions of Alvez, a step away from her streamlined design.  I made sure that her distinct black and pink colour massing remained generally constant.

Like, the perfect balance of tooth-rotting fluff and scorchingly hot smut. Yussa is Exandria's softest dom and I adore him. Essek is a sweetheart doing his very best and I'm holding him in my hands.

Reccer 1 Says: I enjoyed it! Reccer 2 Says: Adorable Fjorester flirting. All the sexual tension of that one sword fight between Fjord and Eadwulf. Unstoppable force (Jester Lavorre) meets immovable object (the world's most miserable, wretched wet dog of a scourger.)

Astrid and Eadwulf take it upon themselves to save Essek from himself. Two scourgers show up at Essek's home to interrogate him about the Mighty Nein.

Reccer 1 Says: the character dynamics and banter are absolutely top notch. the author really nails the character voices. Reccer 2 Says: I enjoyed it! Reccer 3 Says: An alternate ending to C2 with a great balance of intrigue, angst, slow-burn romance, and fluff (if you can count three wizards lying to each other for fun as fluff.)

His sword tore through flesh and left bodies behind. He knew Cyrael was still behind him without needing to look. Of course she would be; she was the one who'd set him on this path in the first place.

The castle carried no secrets that Rysel, formerly the kingdom's 12th prince, didn't know about. Once, he'd used these passages to hide from the same woman who was now hiding from him.

The pair reached the throne room. The guards didn't last long, between his blade and her bow. When he threw open the heavy doors, the queen was nowhere to be seen. He'd expected that.

At the back of the room, just behind the throne, a panel of polished wood sat marred with recent fingerprints. He reached for it. Then he hesitated. His hands were shaking; was he really about to do this?

He looked over his shoulder at Cyrael. She watched him, her eye showing as little emotion as ever. She tipped her head. Do it. Encouragement, an order. It didn't matter.

Rysel pulled the panel aside, and Cyrael's arrow fire felled the three remaining guards with ease. He'd hoped the queen would scream, or plead for her life, or something. But he knew better than to expect it.

Brandishing his blade, he walked in to face his mother, Cyrael on his heels.

"Well, look who it is. The prophesied Demon Slayer, and the boy I no longer call a son." Cordelia was sitting on a carved wooden chair, legs crossed, hands at her sides. He looked in her eyes for any signs of fear, but they were as cold as ever.

"You knew I was coming."

"I didn't think you'd have the guts to try something like this. I can't tell if I've been underestimating or overestimating you all these years, with the scale of the mess you'd made."

"The mess that I've made?" Rysel could feel his voice choking up. He could feel Cyrael moving closer behind him, an arrow sitting at ready in her bow. "You... You've done nothing but made your kids hate each other. And you. And now you've abandoned the whole kingdom to be slaughtered by demons without lifting a finger to stop them." He bit back a sob. "I can't let that happen."

"You were always so good at working yourself up over things that shouldn't matter to a prince."

Cyrael jumped in. "Are you fucking kidding me? He watched his sister, your daughter, fall to a demon, and you want to say that shouldn't matter?"

Rysel dropped to his knees. Should he be doing this? Should he have tried it at all?

"How is this going to make you look to Aolis once he takes the throne instead of you?" the queen asked, calm and collected as ever.

"Either he... either he does what I ask, or I kill him." He was barely able to get the words out.

"You would never have the guts to kill him. Or, for that matter, any of the other 10 siblings you'd have to kill before you reach the throne. Face it. They won't listen to you. These supposed demons aren't a threat to our family. You're making a mistake. You've always made mistakes. You've always been a mistake. This will be your last one." Queen Cordelia stood up from the chair.

Cyrael raised her bow, her fingers twitching on the bowstring.

Rysel's fingers found the blade of the hunting knife Cyrael had given him, stowed in his coat, just in case, she'd told him.

"I might have been a mistake... but I was a mistake you made." He said it with a shaky smile, hand tightening around the handle.

He leapt to his feet, plunging the blade of the hunting knife into his mother's body, right beneath the ribs. "I'm sorry. But somebody had to end your abuse. Not just toward me. Not just toward my siblings. But toward the whole kingdom."

He pulled the knife free, letting it clatter to the ground.

His mother swayed with each step. Then she collapsed on top of him, wheezing. He pushed her away.

The tears came freely now. Frantic, he pulled his blood-soaked coat off, panting.

Cyrael took his hand and pulled him back out into the throne room, where he fell to the ground once more. She'd never been one for comfort, but she offered it now, pulling him into her arms. He buried his face in her shoulder. He wanted to say something to her, but nothing would come out. She held him tight, rubbing his back. "It's over now. It's over. It's done."

She cast a glance back into the hiding place where Cordelia's body lay, an arrow sticking out of her eye. She'd deserved to bleed out, slow and in pain, but had she gotten one more chance to speak, she'd only have hurt him more.

Cyrael turned her body to make sure the room behind the panel was out of Rysel's view. He didn't need what he'd done to haunt him any more than she knew it already would.

"You were a mistake."

"A mistake that you made." She smiled up at the sneering face of her mother.

L'équipe de Daniel Verbrackel s'est en effet vue confirmer le soutien de Van Rysel pour les 5 prochaines saisons. Par ailleurs l'équipe utilisera uniquement sur les 4 jours de Dunkerque un maillot exclusif dont la couleur emblématique, le rose, est associée au noir.

A soft knock on the door alerted Tsaia to her visitor and prompted her to sit up on her cot. "Who is it?"

"You have a visitor," an attendant's voice said through the door. "Prince Ryselurin."

"Let him in."

The door opened and the attendant bowed for the prince, who marched himself right over to Tsaia's bedside and waved for the attendant to shut the door.

When they were in private, he knelt beside her, his fingers wrapped around the side rail. "What happened? All I heard was that you were thrown from a horse."

"That's what happened, yeah. Seriously, it's not a big deal. You won't get in trouble for visiting, will you?"

"Ilyndra's covering for me. Don't tell me it's not a big deal! I haven't seen you in a week!" His voice was pitching up the way it always did when he was upset.

"Hey. It's okay. It's just like those injuries I kept getting when we were little, it's just taking longer than usual to recover this time." She reached for his hand, and he took it, hesitantly.

He didn't reply, dragging the palm of his hand across his eyes before turning back to her, watching as though she'd disappear in front of him.

"Listen. I'm not going anywhere anytime soon. You've gotta stop acting like I'm going to shatter from every little thing. Okay?" She tried to pull him closer to her, but he resisted. "You won't break me by touching me."

He nodded, just a little, and let her pull him in for a one-armed hug. She rested her head on his shoulder. Perhaps this time around, he'd take the message to heart.

“Can you stop acting like I’m going to shatter if we brush hands? I’m tougher than I look, okay? You can touch me.”

Fahrerauto des AG2R-Teams

Nur zwei Jahre nach einer Überarbeitung der Sponsoren hat sich für AG2R erneut alles geändert, das zum ersten Mal bei der Men's WorldTour Van Rysel-Rahmen und SwissSide-Räder verwendet und Decathlon zum Titelsponsor des Teams wird. Das Team wurde in Decathlon-AG2R La Mondiale umbenannt. Es wird auch immer mehr junge Spieler anlocken, das Radsportbekleidung anzuziehen und mitzuspielen. Van Rysel ist eine Fahrradmarke des französischen globalen Sportartikelhändlers Decathlon. Der flämische Name bedeutet „aus Lille“ und ist eine Anspielung auf die Tatsache, dass Decathlon seinen Hauptsitz in Lille, Frankreich, hat, nicht weit von Roubaix und den gepflasterten Rennstrecken der Region Flandern entfernt. Mit anderen Worten: Dies ist das Herzstück der Radrennkultur. Verkauft unsere offizielle Website hier MTB Trikots? Gerne können Sie sich erkundigen. Noch besser: Mit einem Nenngewicht von 6,9 kg ist der Van Rysel RCR leichter als die meisten seiner Klasse.
