Description "She blinked, and the room had disappeared and she stood in a field of flowers. Drago stood still some paces from her, but here he wore nothing but a simple white linen cloth about his hips.
"He held out his hand to her in the traditional Icarii gesture of seduction, but it was not empty. He held a single white lily.
"'You will be," he said, "The first among lilies.'
"And he smiled." ~ Pilgrim, by Sara Douglass

--------------------

Okay, so this had to be one of my favourite scenes in Pilgrim. It was awesome, and I normally don't like romance. Anywho, the dude in the picture is Drago, or Dragonstar. And yes, he can be hot!! How else is going to get Faraday, competing with Axis and all? Ah hem.. yes... I was really really happy with how this came out. Really really happy. I think this is my favourite piece so far. That and Drago looks pretty good with his shirt off, if I don't say so myself.
The title comes from the end of the book, when Drago tells Faraday that his heart would always be her Sanctuary. It was too long to fit in the title box so I had to shorten it. D:
And the awesome brushes are from here: [link]

Drago copyright Sara Douglass, art copyright me. So no touchy.

I searched up Faraday and Drago not expecting any results to come up ...

... and I found this. -tears up 'cause is incredibly happy-

Very pretty. Good job!

I'm halfway through Crusader.

Okay, I'll stop my uh ... ranting now. O_O"

Well, that totally confuses me, cause I've only read Sinner, seeing as I have to wait an uber long time in the US to get those books... and I'm too lazy to order them online.

Psht.

Pilgrim is out now. I think it came out in the US last September...
Sorry to hear that you're confused.

Oh nice!

Too bad I'm the only one around here (that I know of) who reads them. Damn me!

That sucks... Maybe the library has it? Unless you prefer to buy books.
