And hello again!
Once again, we are back with some lush, beautiful art, this time courtesy of Dena Helmi. We’re looking, now, at her interpretation of the Valley of Kathka.
In The Bindings of Fate, the protagonist, Kaos, is sent to the Valley of Kathka to investigate the ruins there. It has long been foretold that a castle once resided in the valley, the last vestige of the goodly races stand against Semia’Laz and his unholy troops during the demon wars. When he arrived there, it was mostly scattered stones and remnants of a time long past.
Dena did a wonderful job capturing the awe of the place, even when its ancestry seemed diminished. It still has this almost otherworldly presence.
After a few touch ups following that initial sketch, she really brought the Valley of Kathka to life.
