I can't believe we made it to chapter 16 of Aere Perennius!
I commissioned this amazing art of Baldwin and Luceria from the great Altzuu!
They did such a great job and Baldwin and Lucy look so pretty oh my goodness!!

Drew King Baldwin IV, aka "The Leper King". Don't you just love compelling historical figures who made it despite all the odds stacked against them? I do, I've had a crush on him for a month.

The blind woman and the leper
•••••••
"Lady Suri?"
At the sound of his voice she smiled, stopped caressing the flowers and turned around with her cane in hand.
" Your Majesty, I have been waiting for you," commented the redhead.
The last time they saw each other was during a banquet organized by Sibylla, Baldwin's sister. Suri felt it was not the right time to confess, so she asked him to meet her two days later in her personal garden before sunset. He agreed.
"That's right, what did he want to talk to me about," Baldwin IV asked.
She was a little nervous, she had never confessed her love to a man before, she kept making nervous movements with her fingers and Baldwin noticed that.
"You know that we have known each other since we were children," declared the redhead, smiling as she remembered the first time they met, at a banquet when they were both eight and nine years old. "I have always felt a great appreciation, affection and respect for you. You supported me during my mother's death, and I am very grateful for that. But now that affection has evolved, it is no longer just affection..... It is also love. Baldwin, I love you."
His sky blue eyes looked different, there was fear and insecurity thanks to the young woman's words, but she couldn't see it.
"Suri, I think you were confused. You wouldn't say that if you really saw me. I'm a leper, I have a short time to live, I won't live past thirty. You couldn't be with a person like me," he spoke slowly, trying to appear calm, but he was anything but calm.
"Of course I could."
"No" he spoke firmly. "You say that because you can't see me, otherwise you'd be frightened to see my face deformed by leprosy."
She let out a little laugh, and moved closer to him, Baldwin backed away but Suri kept moving forward until she touched his mask with both hands, and caressed it as if she was touching him without it.
"That's impossible, Baldwin," the young woman murmured. "If I could see, I would not care what you look like, to me you will always be the bravest and most beautiful man in all Jerusalem."
Under his mask his face and gaze softened, looking at her with affection. He had known her since she was a child, he knew what she said was true. He pulled her to him, wrapping her in a hug. Suri was surprised, but then she reciprocated and a smile broke out on her face.
"I love you too, Suri."

Here's a five min drawing/sketch of the Baldwin IV (in French: Baudouin IV) aka the Leper King of Jerusalem ✨️
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I had drawn it while I was reading the book "Les Croisades Vues Par les Arabes (Crusades from the eyes of Arabs) by Amin Maalouf. When I came to the part where the author mentioned about the Baldwin IV, I felt like I should draw him here as a quick sketch. I know it's not a masterpiece but here it is

King Baldwin IV, the Leper King
This was a lot of fun to work on. Originally I was going to draw him on a dark grey or brownish horse but then made it a dappled grey horse. The composition was originally going to be a lot lighter, taking place during the day time. However, as I progressed. I made the decision to make it a battle scene during a vibrant sunset.
This was a huge accomplishment. It was not long ago that I would've never even dreamed to draw a knight on a rearing horse portrait. But here we are.
Here is a close-up as well! Comments and critique appreciated.

Released eight chapters of Aere Perennius today!
Here is a small Baldwin and Lucy comic and poem I wrote for my fan-fiction. It's called In Aeternum te Amabo (My love for you will last forever).
I had a lot of fun drawing this!
In Aeternum Te Amabo
Could you learn to love a man with skin so brightly burned And fingers gloved and bandaged for a God he must have spurned Whose touch will one day leave his reach Whose eyes will no longer see Tell me, Princess, is that the man with whom you want to be?
Could you learn to love a man whose days are so far and few? Who carries heaven’s burden but cannot run to you? Whose breath commanded armies Whose mind had resolved wars Princess, is that the future you’ve always wanted for?
Could you learn to mourn a king who owed his life to God? Whose every waking moment was a harrowing facade Could you bring him comfort? Could you soothe his screams? Or princess, are you just the ghost that torments his waking dreams?
When I lose each piece of me, and only have my mind Princess, when I become numb, lame, deaf, and blind, Will you be there at the end? Will you be the one I find? Or will you too abandon me and leave my love behind?

16 year old King Baldwin IV about Saladin probably. You can't convince me that this teenager didn't atleast have some mood swings and sass around that time.
