#the opals on his crown and throne are yet another mark of caterina

[haedia]

Lucanis Dellamorte: Master Assassin and (reluctant, unwilling) King of the Crows. A crown sits heavy on a head that does not want to wear it.

(Hopefully a rook can lead him to a better life)

This piece started out way funnier than it ended. It was originally going to have a banner that read "Antiva's #1 Short King" and that idea sustained me for a long while while I fought with the pose.

But then I got into my feels about him and his situation and it morphed into this: a symbolic representation of his future, his responsibilities, his happiness (or lack thereof). At least he has Spite, wings out in an attempt to shield him from what's to come.

I may post close-ups later. But I've been staring at this for hours nearly every day, over the past week so this is what you're getting today. Also, it's been Glazed, so that's what the noise is from.
