Description
The castle of Zicjariis was an incredible underwater structure. Similar to a skyscraper, it reached incredibly high from the bottom of the ocean. The famous arch tower was the highest of them all, and had been built in honour of the mythical sea dragon Shiwaa, bringer of fortune to Zicjariis. Over time, Shiwaa had accepted the castle as her lair, and protected it at all costs. She was benevolent to the inhabitants of Zicjariis, often driving schools of fish its way so the citizens would never grow hungry, and during nighttime, providing Zicjariis with the most beautiful light source. She was famous among Zicjarians especially for the latter.
Every evening, when the waters grew darker and darker, many would gaze into the distance to find the first glimpse of soft white light. As soon as the luminescence had been spotted, the news spread fast, and soon everyone would be awaiting the creature. As soon as Shiwaa arrived, the phenomenon would begin. In a graceful dance of illumination, the dragon would swirl over their home, leaving behind a trail of glowy mist that seemed to contain the stars themselves, their brilliancy inspring all who saw them.
Sadly, Shiwaa did not tolerate unknown beings taking advantage of the castle's wealth, or even approaching it in big vessels that seemed capable of damaging it. It is so that many ships were lost in the waters surrounding Zicjariis. As caring as Shiwaa was for the towers, so merciless she was towards potential threats. Few humans know of the castle's existence, but interpretations of the ancient dragon can sometimes be found on old sea maps.

Admittedly, I'm not as happy with this artwork as I hoped I would be. I think it doesn't really give off a strong feeling or emotion, and that bothers me a little. But, I still wanted to share this with you.
