Description I approached Verity-as-dragon slowly, my heart thundering in my throat. There, in a body carved of Skill and stone slept the man who had been my King. For his sake, I had taken hurts so grievous that both my mind and my body would bear the scars until the day I died. Yet as I drew near to the still form, I felt tears prick my eyes and knew only longing for his familiar voice. 
"Verity?" I asked hoarsely. My soul strained toward him, word, Wit, and Skill seeking for my King. I did not find him. I set my hands flat to his cold shoulder, pressed my brow against that hard form, and reached again, recklessly. I sensed him then, but it was a far and thin glimpse of what he had been. As well to say one touches the sun when cups a dapple of forest light in the palm of a hand. "Verity, please," I begged him, and reached yet again with every drop of the Skill that was in me.
When I came to myself, I was crumpled beside his dragon. Nighteyes had not moved from where he kept his vigil. "He's gone," I told him, uselessly, needlessly. "Verity's gone."

So this is basically a redo of:  www.deviantart.com/lazar-arts/… since I wasn't a fan of it. However, I have since then finished The Tawny Man Trilogy and have made my way to Fitz and the Fool...I'm sad that it'll be over soon, but it was a really nice experience to read these books. And you're damn right that I'll be rereading the Fitz books and doing more fanart (hopefully). Also, I totally didn't buy another copy of Assassin's Quest solely based on the cover...who would do that? (Guys, the original UK cover is so pretty, I think I have a problem)
