Ice and Fire Rapier Sketch

Well, we'll start November off with a weapon sketch. This would be the rapier found by Eric in Chapter 19 in the Realm of the Third Island's Guardian on Delverhold. A powerful, yet incomplete blade, the sword is laced with powerful ice magic, capable of converting all ice magic into cold mana for the wielder to use.

Eric Drakclaw's House with Draegnar

Hello everyone!

New Patron Highlight: Jim Crane, Cat

So we're nearing the end of October. Have no fear, I will make all attempts to get Chapter 25 to you! For now, as part of the Roadmap, we have Eric Drakclaw's house that he and his mother first featured in Chapter 1.

I definitely like how it all turned out. I have to give special thanks to Kiofour on Fiverr for undertaking this task for me. I hope the island is just as atmospheric for you as it is for me!

Thank you!<...

Character - Maeloson

Hello everyone,

Here's the first part of the October roadmap! A full portrait of Maeloson, Aesteal's partner encountered in Chapter 4 of The Vengeful Tide. A mysterious fate surrounds him and her as they have been forced away from the northern kingdom of Fgg'rial. 

A man adept in the art of the sword, bow, and magic, Maeloson has become a pirate for reasons Eric has yet to uncover.

I'd like to thank Warlocklord from Fiverr for taking the time to do this. I couldn't be h...

October Update

Hello everyone!

I hope you're all having a wonderful October! Well, we're officially half way into the month and I thought I'd give an update on progress so far. As of this moment, things are going pretty well. Unfortunately, I might not be able to complete the whole roadmap, but I'll get done what I can and update you accordingly.

That said, the next chapter is another fun one to write. Already over 25 pages. I'm tempted to split this one into two, but I might not do it. Intense ...

October Roadmap

Good day everyone,

I hope you're all excited to begin October!  The time when Fall starts and the leaves start changing colors, and it gets freeze cold in the mornings.

Anyway, I'm here to bring the next roadmap for this month.  I'll be trying to get the next chapter out a little quicker. Definitely didn't plan on it being the last thing for the month. Anyway, here is what you can expect for this month.

1. Chapter 25 of the Vengeful Tide.

2. A portrait of Mae...

Double Barrel & Triple Barrel Sketch

Hey everyone,

Well we're nearing the end of September and we'll be heading into October. As part of the roadmap, here is a sketch of the pistols Eric purchased in chapter 3 from Bowin Cethral, one of Draegnar's weaponsmiths!

On another note, I know some are concerned about the next chapter. Have no fear! It's already done, I'm just going through the editing process. However, I promise that you'll get it before the month is over. I definitely didn't want it to be like this with you...

Character - Nz'ia

Hello, everyone!

I hope you've all had a good September as we start moving into Fall. Anyway, here is Nz'ia, from the tribe of Xhaluters, said to be the fiercest and most savage fighters within the deserts of D'orn. For a Xhaluter, you either survive or you die.

This was done by Ridoy19 from Fiverr. I definitely think he got the imposing figure of Nz'ia down. Wish I could have had a proper background for him, but I bet I'll get back to that at another time or in another illustrati...

The Fall Of A Betrayed Captain

Hello!

Here is the first illustration! Taken from the very first part of chapter 1, Eric Drakclaw surrounded by sharks, slowly sinking into the abyss as his crew leaves him behind to his fate!

I'd like to thank Zanarox on Fiverr for this illustration and the amazing lighting of the picture.

More illustrations from the novel will be coming!

Eric Drakclaw Ship

Hello everyone,

As promised, this was the image for the August Roadmap that just couldn't make it out in time. This here is the ship of the pirate captain from chapter 5 that Eric rented, and later took for himself after killing the man. From Draegnar, this vessel has sailed Eric, Aesteal, Maeloson, Liara, Diane, Goron, Ellen, and Ira to Hilvir, C'ula, the Sea of Dread, and the Isles of Delverhold.

Where shall it sail them next? Wherever Eric desires!

September Roadmap

Hello everyone,

Indeed, all though it isn't September yet, it basically is. With that there is the start of a new Roadmap. Now, I promise the artwork of Eric's ship is coming. It was just longer than I had planned with the artist. It should be either this week or early next and that will be a part of the August Roadmap. Now, onto it!

1. Naturally, Chapter 24, which delves into how far Eric is willing to go for his revenge.

2. Hopefully, I'll do some illustrations. The first ...

Anyway! More to come soon!

Thank you!

Hey everyone,

I hope you're having a good August. I'm having a good one. I just wanted to make this update in regards to the roadmap. I did find someone to help me do Eric's ship from Chapters 5-Present, but it'll take longer than I think this month will allow. It's still coming and it'll still be a part of the August Roadmap, but since it's likely to be completed in September, I've decided to do something else. 

Weapons!

Happy July My Patrons,

I hope you've all been having a wonderful month so far. As part of the July Roadmap, here is an updated version of Draegnar. 

When I was thinking of Draegnar, I remember a lot of my inspiration came from Bilgewater of League of Legends.  What I wanted to convey with Draegnar in this map, as opposed to the other, is just how hard or tough it can be to live on such an island. While the map doesn't show too much, the island is very crowded with many m...

Character - Ellen Sothshore

Hello again!

So, Ellen Sothshore was finished my Yassine_Sey, and I can say that she still makes me laugh, but in a sincere way. I do think the artist did a good job tackling her more serious aspect as well as parts of the tavern itself, but if you have any thoughts on her, then do let me know! 

Let's just hope she doesn't shoot us down for her comments!
