Description
The moonlight was moving over the boat, searching out every part of the tiny vessel, even to the shadowy keel that lay beneath the water. It blessed every nail and board from prow to stern, every grommet, every oar, every pivot, every fleck of paint, every inch of rope.
It touched the women too, inspiring fresh life in their weary bones and warming their icy skin.
All of this took perhaps ten seconds.
Then the clouds began to close again, cutting the moonlight off. Just as abruptly as it had begun, the blessing was over.
The Prologue of Abarat, written by Clive Barker
This is just quick drawing in the size of a postcard I made wednesday for the read-along of the Abarat serie on Tumblr.
