Description "Will you stop shaking like a leaf? There is nothing here: we met not a single creature since we entered this cave"

"W-well maybe the beings will crawl out when we go to sleep?" I muttered under my breath.

To that was only a slight response of chuckling from the man sitting across the fire.

"You are such a coward, you have no courage at all."

"No courage? Maybe i'm just not an idiot to underestimate this place"

With that word I looked around again: The light from the fire danced on the cave walls, creating all sorts of creatures in my mind.



Thought, i didn't see the creature quietly lurking in the shadows...





The Tao De Ching states that courage is derived from love ("慈 loving 故 causes 能 ability 勇 brave") and explains: "One of courage, with audacity, will die. One of courage, but gentle, spares death. From these two kinds of courage arise harm and benefit."

Hope you like it

This is truly beautiful, it really seems like it was done on canvas intead of digitally.
