“And perhaps it is the greater grief, after all, to be left on earth when another is gone. [...] When he died, all things soft and beautiful and bright would be buried with him.” 🩸
“In the darkness, two shadows, reaching through the hopeless, heavy dusk. Their hands meet, and light spills in a flood like a hundred golden urns pouring out of the sun.” 🌻
Two souls, reunited.
(quotes from Madelline Miller's The Song Of Achilles)

I don’t usually do digital art, but this was a “I’m just going to color this sketch, whoops I painted the whole thing” situation.
This is my paladin Imbi, the bees she’s made of, her not-so-little-anymore charge Etta, and noble steed Anselm gardening at the house they built in their much deserved epilogue.
Fantasy houses need names, obviously, so this one is named Heimweh, which means “Homesick” in German. I imagine the bee part of Imbi insisted on well-stocked pantries, impeccably efficient storage, and room enough to fit everyone they’ve ever considered family. The human paladin part of Imbi insisted that it be frugally kept and open to anyone who needs a room, dinner or just a place to be safe for a while.
