Well, This is the only clean render I got off this image after many attempts to render it at a decent resolution.
It seem that no matter what version of D|S I used it would shut down the moment it tried to render a pixel of the floor. Can't figure it out... Oh well, At least I got this render to get my thoughts across atleast.

As always, Comments, Creative Critique, and Praise are welcomed and encouraged.

Edited (06-22-09) to add a backstory:
Well, Fermmoylle mentioned that this image is begging for a back story. Though there was no such story in mind when the image was being created, I thought I would enter my foray into Fictional writing by adding one. So….

Zora was a beautiful princess who thought her beauty was deserving of a place among the gods. After defying the gods at every turn she gained for her self a portion of immortality. However, for her many transgressions, the gods saw fit to punish her. They limited her immortality to a palace upon a mountain top. If she should ever leave the confines of her prison, the years would come upon her in a great wave erasing her beauty and leaving her as a dried husk. Many years passed and her beauty was forgotten. Watching the world pass below the palace, her vane heart began to soften and she yearned for love and eventual peace. As a cruel twist of fate, the gods provided only one escape, throwing her self from the place to the valley below insuring her destruction.
No longer being able to bear the loneliness, she leaps to her doom. On her way down the gods took mercy upon her to some degree and though they allowed her to die, her body was perfectly preserved and her soul linked to the body. The villagers there took her body to a temple and worshiped her as a goddess. Her body lay in state in perfect beauty while her soul whispered help to those who came to visit her. She helped many people find the love she so wished she had. As things usually do, sentiments changed among the people and the worship of the “Old gods” became unfashionable.
In an attempt to burn the temple and the body of Zora, a lone priest stood before the mob to defend the goddess whom he had never seen for he was blind. Over the years he had fallen in love with her soul and saw the beauty in the advice she gave freely to the many who came seeking her help. This act finally convinced the gods who imprisoned her that she had payed her debt. And bringing her back to life, they granted sight to the priest and whisked them both to a land far away where they lived out their days as simple farmers. Dieing happily in love with one another.
