thank ya thank ya

Chapter House was always interesting. Teg has always been one of my favorite Characters along with Duncan (in all his various incarnations) and having their roles flip-flopped from Heretics made for some great reading.

Amazing work! I like how you can see all the little teeth in the worm's mouth.

thank ya The descriptions of the worms mouths that Hurbert gave have always stuck in my
mind. I had entertained the idea of showing thousands of the little teeth covering the inside, but it started to get muddled, so I cut back on the number and tried to go for more of a pleasing visual, rather than the actual concept in my mind.

I agree. More would have looked too crowded - even though it may have been more accurate.
