Description "It is a strange fate that we should suffer so much fear and doubt over so small a thing." - Boromir (Lord of the Rings)

Had that quote in my head the whole time I drew this picture... And it does fit. So much trouble over those four elemental stars. Maybe Felix is wondering how his life would be different if it hadn't been for the elemental stars - Satoros and Menardi wouldn't have tried to break into Sol Sanctum and he might never have been washed into the river. Set at a building in Prox, hence the lighthouse out the window. I guess it stopped snowing for a little bit. : P I just wanted to put Mars Lighthouse in the background... I think that the Mars star had to stay in the Mithril bag (apparently mithril was coined by Tolkien?), too, and I took it out. Oops.

This is really cool, dude!  I like your thoughts behind it a lot.  I'm also a huge fan of Tolkien's works, so... I can definitely see how that quote fits.  

Fun fact about Mithril: Tolkien did make up the word, but unlike certain other terms he made up (Hobbit, Balrog, Ent) it wasn't copyrighted, which is why "Mithril" has become a staple fantasy metal in books and games alike, but everyone else has to call THEIR little people halflings.

Poor Felix - the stars did give him so much trouble.  Especially when Hama's line about him is taken into consideration ("Felix bears a terrible fate. A burden I wouldn't wish on anyone.") and the fact that he apparently just up and left to wander the world not long after the Lost Age, according to Dark Dawn.  I feel like the poor guy probably took the brunt of the blame for what happened.  Even if his intentions were good, not everyone would think that excused all of his actions.

Thanks!  I'm glad you like it!

That's actually kind of a funny reason why.

Yeah. Being the quiet guy on top it probably didn't help. He probably would take responsibility for it even if no one forced him to shoulder the blame.
