Okay, I'm going back now to continue Maladyne's story arc in Web of Betrayal.

***********************************************

“Your Lord Uncle--my beloved Anjer--would never have condoned this sabotage!” Maladyne snarls in reaction, but even as she speaks the words she can see the error in them. Panic, shame, and dismay assail her in dark, silken threads, but she fights to tear them away.

“That may be true,” the figment of Avora acknowledges while watching the woman struggle, “but I believe it may well not be. In my wanderings I have come to appreciate the qualities of my own family line and to consider the limits--and the extent--of our capacity for devotion, sacrifice, and even submission. But through all of that, Milady, we hold to a sense of self.

Maladyne tears away a pair of shadowy filaments and pauses before three more are draped over her and tightened by the scuttling horrors. “You think that is not true of me as well?" She asks. "You think I have no sense of self?”

“If you did,” Avora counters, “would there be any filaments to bind you in this place?”

***********************************************

Maladyne was drawn using the wonderful reference material provided for me by minokura . She did a great job struggling against those imaginary spider figments! Thanks!

I hope people are weathering the current situation well, and that those who are suffering can get the help they need. Again, I'd like to encourage everyone to be a bit more understanding and tolerant than ever, and I mean myself as well, in viewpoints and communications.

Enjoy!

Note: Web of Betrayal and Demon's Due are a work of fantasy and fiction. The artist/creator in no way condones real mistreatment of this kind toward any woman or man, by living person, gremlin, plant, assassin, ratman, viscous fluid, programmed device, animated home furnishings, or otherworldly spiritual beings. Furthermore, the artist opposes the marginalizing and restriction of women in general by any institution, political and/or religious, including those which have individual women amongst their membership touting/promoting their own happiness within that institution as evidence that ALL women should feel the same way. This includes the religion I was raised in and which I have utterly discarded from my life over this and other issues.
