A field and meadow overlook the sleepy, mist-shrouded village of The Vales, with ancient ruins on the distant hillsides, and a grand chapel guarding its woods to the west. This seemingly tranquil pastoral scene is hiding secrets--one a symbol of a shattered faith, which future generations must restore.
Lost Chaplet Pendant detail |
Legends of the Forsaken Empire follows a powerful family's struggles with faith, corruption, scandal, political battles, and--yes--some mysterious books and beasts, which shouldn't exist except in legends.
I hope my sketching skills progress to the point of offering readers glimpses of the mysterious beasts that hunt our beleaguered Legends characters.
Until then, here's a symbol of broken faith and a quiet village surrounded by a mist that's not as benign as it appears.
Let me know what you think!
Blessings,
R. J. (and Kacy)

Your new-found sketching skills are impressive! I am looking forward to this new series!
Thank you, Robin! My goal is to create my own maps and decorations as needed for my books--I'd love to be able to insert images between scenes. :D
