a dragon is not a slave.

“Elain had always been gentle and sweet- and I had considered it a different sort of strength.

A better strength.

To look at the hardness of the world and choose, over and over, to love, to be kind.”

i don’t know about y’all, but this week has been.. rough.

i’m admittedly full of so much rage, despair and hopelessness that it feels hard to function with it all in my chest like this. it feels like i’m wading through water with no end in sight, and i know i’m not alone in this.

but, even when we are drowning in these awful, overwhelming feelings, i’m trying to remind myself that there is still room for kindness and empathy.

i didn’t have plans to post this particular commission any time soon, but after seeing @elrielsgarden’s post about channeling the kindness of our darling flower girl, and with the state of things i wanted to put out a little beacon of light, even if it’s just for myself and to make myself smile. hopefully it can do the same for you. pls enjoy this lovely piece from @bloomsbury 🫶
