Description
Some may remember, a long while ago I posted an image called "Kelethruus and the seduction of Glamarra" - which was a render based on a story I was writing. Well, I picked it back up. Here's a scene from much later in the story.
Racing down the hall of the armory, I nearly tripped over the crooked tiles on the floor, nearly knocking over a rack of pole arms. The voices quieted. I stopped.
I heard a high, nasal voice say, "I thought you came alone!"
I reached the doorway, and pushed the door open a crack."I am alone," the prince said. "Now tell me where I can find it."
"I know nothing," the old man said. "You must speak with the general." He was taunting Kelethruus. It was very clear that when the general knew that Kelethruus was alive, that he would send legions of men to kill him.
"I will ask you again, and only once more. Where?"
"I do not know, my lord," the man sneered.
With no warning, the man suddenly was lifted off the ground. He appeared to be choking. Kelethruus was channeling a spell towards him; black and violet light were leaving his fingertips, streaming towards the man's neck.
"No!" I cried. "No, please! Please do not!"
My words appeared to startle the sorcerer. The man tumbled to the floor.
Rendered in Poser 8, post-work in Photoshop CS4. Playing Prince Kelethruus is the lovely, yummy Trystan, who I just picked up while he's on sale at DAZ.
