Description  

--------------------
Loxias flew over the jagged terrain of the Underworld. All was quiet except for the faint wailing from the fields of torment. After living in the gloomy environment Loxias was almost oblivious to the distant cries and howls of agony. The only sound she was aware of was the flap of her own wings as she soared and spiraled among the hanging stalactites. The pagasus's flaming mane burned bright and icy cold as she reveled in her flight. Below the dark waters of the Styx stretched off into the greenish haze. Of in the distance the towering form of the three headed dog Cerberus watched the endless line of souls entering the underworld.

------------------

Gosh that background took forever. But it's not that bad I guess :/
I spent at a least a week working on this X3 I still need to work on wings *sigh*
Anyway Loxias is such fun to draw with her fiery mane and tail and glowy eyes. ^^

Oh my goodness! This is so awesome! I love the anatomy, and the blur of the wing is a very nice touch.

The background really adds a eery atmosphere to the entire picture. :3 Awesome job! ^-^

Thank you! :3
It's the first time I've ever added a blur to show movement and I really like it.

Thank you very much! <3 I've wanted to do something so I could practice drawing Hades. 
And I'm glad I added the blur on the wing, it was last minute. :3
