Description
  "If this Court were a chessboard, the Lord would be the King: he does nothing but hides behind all the other pieces; still, were he to fall, everyone else would crumble down with him."

  "Don't tell me you have a piece for every one of us, Tafir."

  "Oh, yes! Tafir is the Knight and Master is the Bishop; this one is sure they will make a fine checkmate one day. Jo'Sadri is the Rook, he thinks himself so important but always forgets the diagonals, while his Kitten is a Pawn, she might look useless but is infinitely dangerous: you lose sight of her and she'll become a Queen."

***

Tafir and Garan often play chess and talk, or rather, Tafir does all the talking; among his nonsensincal ramblings often lie pieces of information and news that might turn out to be useful for his Master.
Fun facts about the dialog: here, Tafir refers to Feran as Jo'Sadri, where Jo is an honorific in Ta'agra that means scholar or physician and is evidently used in a mocking manner, while the Kitten is Elneri and yes, he's not-so-subtly suggesting to get rid of her XD

I've been working on this piece on and off since March and I'm really proud of it! I've been itching to draw more of Tafir ever since I introduced him in my fic ^^ I'm still a bit unsure on how to render his fur but I like how he turned out, next time I'll just make sure it to give it a lighter colour.

Tafir belongs to me.
