Artist's Comments

My contest entry for Bring Your Vision to Life.

The Path I Walk

I dearest beloved
Forgive me for what I must do
The path I take to see you and the children again
Is likely filled with damnation
Know I love you with all my being
With all my existence that is known throughout the world
Forgive me my beloved
My path to you and them
Is a path of damnation
But I pray
I pray
That I may soon take a road of redemption
Once the deeds and the old paths are done with
The symbol of our union guides me
It reminds me of who I once was
Who I am to you and our children
Though sadly for now
I must close my hand and forsake myself
In seeing that precious stone
Of beautiful moonlight
Which reminds me of you
Wait for me
My beloved
My path of damnation begins now
Though soon I will find you and our children
To which I will walk the path of atonement



Story Behind the Poem and The Knight:

This is one of my oldest original characters, based off of many inspirations from many sources of lore and fiction that inspired me to the path of an artist.

Myros Hawkdragon walks a path to damnation... knowing full well that his next actions are evil and filled with selfish desires, but he still believes in the greater good of it all.

His wife and daughters await him in the place beyond life and time... the castle of his enemies is just ahead... and the roads of burdening crimes and ridding them off his shoulders are no where to be seen.

He speaks one final poem before he marches off from the beginning of his path, knowing that he only speaks to silent forms... knowing full well they would cringe at the new sight of him.

Go without fear Myros... but remember who you were once before the turning... before the greatest of a hero's fears...

Remember them and move onward.

To the road of Damnation.

Cat's out of the bag on that one, isn't it? Who puts cats in bags, anyway? Cats hate bags!

They're getting more active every day. Not a good sign. You know what would be a good sign? "Free Sweetrolls!" Who wouldn't like that?
