"Having conquered the trials that awaited him in Italy, the Knight crossed the ocean and reached the olden land of Hellas. From there, he ventured northward throughout the vanquished nations of Europa and reached a small nation-state that stood within yet another ruined space. Once called "Magyarország" after the Magyar peoples that once inhabited the land, the inhabitants of the Duchy of Urheimat now eke a precarious living day in and out, beset by hordes of barbarians as well as bands of thieves and marauders, along with the forces of the Enemy, who once every ten years demands the sacrifice of ten infant males in order to placate his undying hatred for the ancestors of the Urheimen. Seeking to curb the Overlord's power by reclaiming this land, the Knight makes a last-minute survey of the domains of Duke Uralus as the Enemy's servant drinks the blood of slaughtered children to his health, seemingly unaware of the doom soon to fall upon his house..."Been missing you, friend. As always, top notch job on technique and design. The moonlight that bathes the mountain and adjacent areas is simply luscious, and the Aurora Borealis heightens the atmosphere of melancholy through its aquamarine silence. I also love the fact that you can barely see the rider and his steed, as if both of them were close to being devoured by light and darkness. Kudos.
