***********************************************

Desperately the Scholar presses the tip of her magical key against the back wall before she thinks about hiking up the lower folds of her dress. The sorcerous functions of the key immediately take effect, beginning to superimpose a doorway over the reality of the brick and mortar barrier before her. Elina knows the move is a risk, for her hasty mental mapping of the labyrinth places a daunting amount of solid earth between this end of a created passage and whatever space the sorcery might link to on the other side.

Elina was drawn, as ever, using the wonderful references provided by Emily at Feathered-pics Thanks, Emily!

Enjoy!

Note: Bookbinding and Demon's Due are a work of fantasy and fiction. The artist/creator in no way condones real mistreatment of this kind toward any woman or man, by living person, gremlin, plant, assassin, ratman, viscous fluid, programmed device, animated home furnishings, or otherworldly spiritual beings. Furthermore, the artist opposes the marginalizing and restriction of women in general by any institution, political and/or religious, including those which have individual women amongst their membership touting/promoting their own happiness within that institution as evidence that ALL women should feel the same way. This includes the religion I was raised in and which I have utterly discarded from my life over this and other issues.
