Sooooooooooo......I'm assuming Scillara or Felisin?
By SE?
And that the title of this post means we will be getting the Prologue soon, or that getting the prologue has been delayed? (most likely the latter, given the word's definition)

Still....cool.

I'm guessing Scillara. She's got a knowing look and a cynical twist to her mouth. She looks older than Felisin Younger. Also the hand on the belly is a pregnant thing - not sure why. Her bellybutton is pushed out too B)

Great work - I didn't like it at first, not really my style, but the more I look at it the more it grows on me :D

I'm going to guess Felisin Fatter. And again, nice work.

EDIT: Hmm, I based my guess on the fact she looks more fat than pregnant, and the extravagant background, but now I'm not so sure! GAH!
Hello, soldiers, look at your mage, now back to me, now back at your mage, now back to me. Sadly, he isn’t me, but if he stopped being an unascended mortal and switched to Sole Spice, he could smell like he’s me. Look down, back up, where are you? You’re in a warren with the High Mage your cadre mage could smell like. What’s in your hand, back at me. I have it, it’s an acorn with two gates to that realm you love. Look again, the acorn is now otataral. Anything is possible when your mage smells like Sole Spice and not a Bole brother. I’m on a quorl.

It's the rolls on her side that put you off, right? Considering they didn't have much in the way of food when they were travelling, she'd have been putting on weight at the front but probably not much fat... I could also be completely wrong, never having had a baby myself B)

If it's Scillara, then the background is wrong, because her pregnancy was just when she was travelling with Cutter, Heboric and Felisin... no fancy surroundings around there;)

Awesome pic though:D

Blatantly Felisin. Shes fat in opulence, looks slightly haggard and is smoking a pipe.

Oh! Im not sure now!
"I think i was a bad person before. Before this time. I do not try to be good now but i am not bad. Perhaps if i try harder i may get a better hand dealt next time? But surely that makes it pointless? Perhaps i am good. Just good at being pointless. But that would make me bad. Bad at having a point. Ah…. I see now. I was nothing before, I am nothing now. I am bad purely because im pointless. "

Chaos at Transworld has prevented the prologue's release before Christmas. In lieu of that I'm
sending another painting for the site ...this one of Scillara in her typical non-politically correct condition.


Also, anyone who is thinking about mentioning the lopsided breasts is encouraged to note that 'in the real un-augmented world, gravity exists.' B)

So do you have any actual dates Hetan or is it just guess work? We should run a sweep stake!

My guess.

great B)
it's weird and cool seeing an authors (visual) depiction of his own characters. I can't think of any other non-comic book writer who does this sort of thing.

I refuse to let mere facts dissuade me.
