Description A little collage I decided to put together of the art I drew for my three Oakheart lore chapters. I wasn't sure if you could view them properly as the previews they are there, so here we are. Enjoy.

Anyway, long story short, the changes I made to each version were meant to symbolise the path Kyreth walked in his life, where the first deals with his youth. The second deals with the loss of his sister and the aftermath of The Searing, while the third deals with him finding hope in seeking a new life beyond the ruins of Ascalon, which is why we have rays of sunlight and the first signs of snow, symbolising his path that would lead him into the Shiverpeaks and beyond. Should I get around to the fourth anyway, it will be a scene covered in snow. And as for the fifth, sixth, seventh... *shrugs*

Thanks! lol, admittedly, though, Kyreth's life has only just begun.

Wellllllllll you opened up a box o' worms.... we wanted the land to build a new home or something of that nature, but right now things are kinda looking odd in that reguard... finances and the like are rather tight and we have been trying to look into such things a modular homes, timber frame, and even metal building construction in hopes of finding the cheepest yet best option.... as it stands now we will have to demolish the modular home we have no and place any new home we build/breing in on it's old spot because the cost will be lower due the fact that we have all the utilities right there. the new properety is farther away from said utilities. what sucks is that I reallly like the new property thers lotst of trees to shade the house and it just has a very calm, crisp, secluded feel about it... right where you'd want to put a home...
