Description When Elizabeth turned her eyes to the light, she froze solid and still, like a wild animal in the road at night.

It was then that she began to wail, in a terrifying and unearthly tone; And it was then I realized that the sirens ringing loudly throughout the valley were not sirens at all, but the sound of other fleeing humans, their spirits trapped by the seeking lanterns of the floating leviathans above.

Cloaked figures with ashen faces, bathed in crimson, floated through the surrounding brush, guided by the eerie signals of their human prey. I could barely summon the courage to whisper “I’m sorry”, staring horrified and heartbroken into Elizabeth's tear-filled eyes as I silently mouthed my regret … and ran stumbling into the darkness.

Acrylic on Birch Panel, textured and painted with sponges, toothbrushes, feathers, fingers, and hands.

I love how intense this is! The feeling I get from it is so different and unique from the others in the series. The story really adds to it and leaves me wanting more. I like the antennae and fins on the airship. It gives it a creepily organic feel. And speaking of creepy, the wraith-like woman is beautiful.

Love it!
