#volume3

For three years, I have had this image in my head.  Pyrrha's talk about Destiny and how she believed it was a goal that we worked for had a profound impact upon me.  The fact that she knew she was walking to her death that day, and her final question to Cinder brought me to tears and gave birth to this illustration.

In the sandman comics, Destiny is the personification of destiny and freewill.  I feel that these two things are naturally the same side of the two coins, so it was no surprise that my mind put them together.  Pyrrha wrote her path into the Book of Life--she knew what she was doing and she would, most likely, do it again.
