Web of Betrayal Prologue03 by faile35

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

It is a calamity somewhat of my own blood’s devising. A psychic piece of my captor spent time living and growing in the mind of my late uncle, the Master Scholar Anjerome Villios. There, the fragment acquired from Uncle Anjer a taste for life, for knowledge, for sorcerous power, and for an uncivilized, even primeval possession of the female of his own kind. For nigh ten years the fragmented being existed as scattered bits of consciousness, clinging to small forms of hungering life in a relationship both parasitic and symbiotic, kept so by Anjerome’s mighty sorcerous work, the Bookbinding. This creation of inscribed sorcerous bonds rendered the being relatively impotent in the hopes of providing it as a sacrificial offering to she who is deemed to be Dernhem’s savior, the Lady of Light and Blade, known historically as the Harbinger.

As always, Elina was drawn with the awesome reference material provided by Emily at Feathered-pics :worship: . Thanks, Emily!=)

The reference I used for this is not in Emily's gallery, but it is a profile from this series and similar to this one.

Enjoy! =)

Note: Web of Betrayal 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.

A reasonably good plan however the execution of it obviously went astray, given that Elina's (and ultimately Dernhem's) current predicament is the result of Anjerome's plan colliding with Maladyne's plan and Jervil's plan, mixed thoroughly by Drea and her spear along with Elina and her books.

I've always found it interesting that Jervil's ultimate plan for Callista (I'm assuming that there were others prior to it.) was essentially the same as what was planned for him, there's some symmetry in that.
