Title: Ties That Bind (Trazyn/Orikan, rated E, 54k words)

Summary:

A matter of debt has been raised in the Awakened Council concerning Trazyn the Infinite and Orikan the Diviner. They have not repaid the gifts in the eve of their nuptials during the Flesh Times. One problem though, they are not married. Trazyn and Orikan have to work together to convince the Awakened Council of their statuses as bachelors. Should be easy, right? Somewhere in the deep, dark past, the Last Seer of the Necrontyr sees a coming end. Is there anything to do to stop it?

A/N: Another year, another Big Bang, same old divorced coots. Hope you enjoy!

That's my illustration for @ask-the-crimson-king's story for the Warhammer 40k Big Bang 2022-2023.

I have to admit, it wasn't easy. I had to start over from scratch, since I wasn't happy with my first version and wanted it to be more focused.

But I love Word Bearers and the story is great! I like the vulnerability in An'sar's brand of faith. And the build-up of his inner journey. Plus there's not enough Sicarus-world building in the BL-books, so I'm very happy to read more about the 17th new home.

Title: Keeping Time (Trazyn/Orikan)

Summary: Something is haunting the galleries of Trazyn the Infinite. It starts with a single medal disappearing and then reappearing out of place. Soon time itself is starting to crumble around the galleries, and unfortunately enough Trazyn knows exactly who to ask for help; Orikan the Divine, the last Seer of the Necrontyr.

Though Trazyn's galleries give him a headache even on the best of days, Orikan agrees to help; partially out of curiosity, partially because if something were to destroy the galleries, he'd definitely want to have the first row seat.

Becoming trapped outside time inside the galleries is not the kind of thing that would mend the fraught relationship between the two ancient scholars. Unfortunately that is exactly what happens.

Something special for today's Marine Meat Monday: Ans'ar, Dark Apostle of the 17th Host.

It's a sneak peek for the illustration I'll be doing for the WH 40k Big Bang.

Well, not exactly. Since it's more of a first study to get into his appearance. He will be fully clothed in the pic. Sadly.
