"What once was is lost. All that I ever dreamed of now lie in ruins. Please bring hope to those that have lost their way once more to find the road which leads us to everlasting happiness and light so that the world will never fear the darkness again, the darkness which lies in the hearts and souls of many, including my own. So even in darkness there is light and hope." --

This is very relatable. Sometimes i feel lost in the cold without no one there.
The blur in the background is absolutely gorgeous. The snow is also really lovely. I think she could use some hot chocolate. If someone makes it for her. Which I totally would indeed.
I enjoy hot chocolate. I wish the marshmallows were a bit bigger.
What kind do you enjoy?
We had a giant snow storm before. It was lovely. however, it was freezing.
The stocks you used are fantastic. Wonderful work combining all of those.
I've just got to scan your eagle. I'll do that after I'm done with my giant comment.
The model is really pretty. I also like snow and trees.
Luciana is so perfect. I feel so bad for her and can definitely empathize with her, and since she reflects on you, I empathize with you.
I hope Lykaios is there to warm her up. Do they take care of each other? Lykaios seems like he'd be a good brother.
I loves her.
I wish I could give her a blanket. And be there to help her find herself and the path to warmth.
I've been alone like that before, metaphorically. Once a bird was out in the cold with a broken wing. I rescued him/her. he/she passed away and it made me really sad.
That rose there adds an interesting element. I wrote a letter to somebody once and it was mostly an apology letter. That back fired and got thrown into my face. It was so depressing.
This is a wonderful piece. I think she's beautiful and amazing. I hope to meet her via RP one day.
Wonderful piece. Winter is a beautiful and frigid season. Portrayed beautifully.
not my longest, but up there.
I love hot chocolate and marshmallows on a cold day. I think she'd love some hot chocolate.
Where I am in Australia, we don't get snow. XD I would love to go to the snow one day however. In fact it is summer over here right now.
You are so very nice, I love that you can feel and sympathize with a character as if they were real. My characters are so very real to me.
I would love to RP one day with you as well.
