Description
Her husband off dealing with trouble in the forest, Joy is left alone in the elven city, a place she was too young to remember when she left, contemplating the sword which inevitablly has brought her here. She is faced with the task of clearing her family name before a council not known for their compassion, making an ally out of the man who killed her father, mother and older brother and once sought her life as well, or facing the death to which all her family was put before her. Trouble is, she cannot lie, not even about what she is, and she knows for fact that more than half the ideas for which her father was executed are true. The trick will be to come out of this alive without the council forcing her to remain within the city as their leader. For these elves value 3 kinds of people above all things: Seers, Blade singers, and magic weilders. To be even one of these sets one above one's caste. Joy is all three. Add to this that her new husband was out facing a great danger to the wood which neither of them had a face to alone and without her sword to back him and you have one stressed out elf!

Beautiful image Love the lil story that goes along with it also Nice to meet you also hope ya come see me too Vote Susan~
The story is a great way to introduce an image like this one! I really get the feeling that goes with the pose. I love the textures... well done indeed..
well, I wanted to do something moody. Max complained that all my women are either serene or slightly smiling. I try to keep them beautiful and grimacing just isn't. so... moody, pensive, just plain sad....
wow.. really emotional looking. good job.
