🍁Nine Ancient Obelisks

– Thank you for such a warm welcome, Lord Faineant, – said the Lunarian with unsettling friendliness. – I am Camistella, a herald of the will of the Lane family, a humble follower of the ideas of beauty and art for all in our cozy world. Everything that brings benefit and pleases the eye is a flower in the endless field of civilization's development! Well, to all those gathered here and to the eternal prosperity of our kingdom!

In response to Camistella's greeting, General Goods timidly waved his hand at her, for which he immediately received a slap from his wife; a young man named Druj, in turn, sent her an air kiss. Overall, the elven model was well received.

Next, the organizer of the event, Kimchille Pesheng, had to attract attention to herself, but no one present needed to get acquainted with her, as she was already known to everyone.

After this stage was completed, the artist had to show the guests some of his paintings.

- I don't like to give titles to my works, so let's do without them...

- Like any artist, there was a time when I tried to depict my ideal of femininity with my own hands, and here is the result.


- The residence of King Iraola. I really liked the former Welferna in the north, so in this work I decided to immortalize the memories of it.


- Mio. Or Mao, whatever her name is. One of the ancient saints, revered on the Islands. Do you know her? I didn't really delve into it, but I really like her image. Here, however, I tried to give her a little more modernity and cuteness.

- Toyokawa. Also a good country, but it would be better to live in it without the damned etiquette and the crazy monarchy.

- And this is... The source of all my troubles. Once, our king turned to me with a request, and how many days and nights I devoted to him... The king is still the king, not some random vagrant, so I had to approach the task thoroughly. Such a challenge to my talent and hard work was the first in my life, and therefore I put all my soul into my brush. And what was the result? He tells me, "this is not at all what I wanted." And he left. He didn't even take the money he had paid for the order. Now it serves as a reminder of my lack of talent, haa... - The artist shrugged. - These are the stories. I hope this dose of Schadenfreude has satisfied the hunger of your dark souls.
