Event: FOR GLORY, FOR HONOR, FOR VALHALLA 2020

Mutation: Draugr

"They always say to face your fears, but not a single one ever told that Fear stares right back, feeding on the terror it causes until it can pull yet another soul into darkness."

There are many legends and myths that wove themselves around Vanaheim and are passed on to each new generation. Some are deeply connected with the gods and part of the land's religion, others aren't much more than tales and children's stories. And some are a kind of their own, balderdash for those who never experienced something to prove their truth and nightmares, a warning, guide or even salvation for those who managed to look beyond the shallow surface of modern society. Tales always bare a certain truth, whether they are created or dilvered from a witness. The story about the Dreadbearer> is merely a myth though. A cryptid that has many names and many stories. The truth may never be fully delivered, as this creature is known to be the first sign of death, appearing to the ones that have given up on life. Drawn near by mere despair and hopelessness, he is lurking in the dark, long before his presence gets noticed. Not single spark of depression will go by unnoticed, for he is feeding on it.

But stories get twisted and amplified each time they are told. Meak souls might get to see what lies behind the tale. But most won't ever get a chance to deliver the truth.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN WITH "BUT INU, IT'S TOO EARLY FOR HALLOWEEN!?"

Oh damn :''D I hope dA doesn't eat the details in the dark areas. I swear the trees even have detailed bark >3>"

That's what I call a last minute entry XD

Please take a look at the full res HERE to enjoy it in detail >U<

I totally went out of my comfortzone for this one. Everyone who knows me, knows how much I HATE doing shadings. It's my absolute art-nemesis.

So going for a realistic style was.... woah :''D a challenge. Pulling off a motionboook? HELL YES. THAT'S FUN. Doing a single realistic image? OMFG SOMEONE SHOOT ME.

And now excuse me while I go back to doing my minimalistic celshading LOL
