Most of the trees around here don't have many leaves on them yet but this old pear tree in my yard had just enough so I got to see those magical eclipse leaf shadow crescents again!
“We heard about you down here. You are the one the sea and the wind and the earth whispered of.”
“Nesta.”
“You took from the Cauldron itself.”
“Come with me, Queen of Queens, and we shall return what was once lost.”
- Chapter 54, A Court of Silver Flames.
Nesta has been referenced more than once as a queen in the books, and perhaps this is a portent for what the future holds for her. Maybe not exactly as queen, but as ruler of the Dusk Court.
In this art, me and Luana wanted to represent Nesta as it's High Lady, holding her two swords: Cauldron made Ataraxia and Starsword/Gwydion. And we couldn't have loved more how @gessueter brought this idea to life.
