Another #concept piece. These are my first attempts at using a dip pen in over 15 years - they gave me such a hard time as a teenager that I abandoned them completely.

I know it's not #Rider-Waite, but the Mathers-Felkin description of this #card is so awesome I had to use it.

See the comic here: tapas.io/episode/3481...

A Comic cover. Title: Etherwood, Chapter 5: Princess of the Shining Flame by J.W.A.Beasley. The title is written in fire colors with spiderwebs all over the letters. Veronica poses with her glowing Athame in front of a staff with a fox head. The staff and the ground around her are on fire. In the distance we see the entrance to the forest.

Panel 1: "Don't you get it, fox?! You stole the wrong fruit!" gloats Hare, as Aramis lies on the ground with his head crushed by an anvil, "Now you're almost as weak as a human!" Panel 2: "You'll just have to rely on your so-called wits!" Hare hoists a bindle, "I'm off to enjoy the next 300 years - fox free!" Panel 3: Veronica rushes to Aramis, "Aramis!" Panel 4: Aramis gets up, wobbly and injured, "Does-does it please you, Master, to see how weak you've made me?" Panel 5: "What? Really? ME?" says Veronica, insulted, "Is that it?"

Panel 1: Aramis slams face first into a stack of bricks. Hare, "Was that always there?" He holds his ear over his head so it looks like a halo. Panel 2: "Aramis!" Veronica calls out in concern. Hare, "Don't worry, he's thick as a brick! Ha-ha!" Hare reaches inside his fur coat as if it is indeed a coat, "Now catch this!" Panel 3: Aramis, "RAAAAGHsplat!" He takes a cream pie to the face. Hare, "Whups, a hare past a freckle! Time to wrap this up!" Panel 4: A variety of cartoon sounds ensue. Veronica winces at the spectacle.

Panel 1: The hare pounds the ground laughing, "And she doesn't even know what you did!" Veronica rounds on Aramis, "Oh, yeah! Why ARE you supposed to be imprisoned?" Aramis gets angry, "Don't say it!" Panel 2: "Of course, old 'friend'!" says the hare, "But you know I'm an incorrigible gossip!" Panel 3: The hare whispers to Veronica, "So what happened was-" Aramis leaps at the hare in fox form, "That's it!"

Too bad the hare doesn't say how many years that lifespan is, huh, Veronica?

Panel 1: The hare jumps onto Veronica's shoulders. "I'm sayin' I 'preciate a good con, kid! Great work catching this fox!" Veronica, "That's not what I meant at all! I was just trying to get him out of trouble!" Panel 2: Hare falls off laughing. "Bwa-ha-ha-ha! That's even funnier!" Panel 3: "She -ha!- she gets you out of prison by -ha!- tacking a human lifespan to your sentence!"

Panel 1: Hare, "You're gonna fall for the ol' waterworks! Ha ha!" He's eating baby carrots like popcorn and sitting in front of a pile of bricks. Panel 2: Aramis is immediately aggressive, "What're you doing here, Hare?" Hare, "Oh, don't mind me (heh heh)! I'm just watching the great fox..." Panel 3: "Caught by a kid mage! Hee hee hee!" Panel 4: The hare jumps into Veronica's arms. He is large for a hare. "Why the long face, toots? Seeing your first grey hare? Ahahaha!" Veronica, "What are you saying?"

Panel 1: The pair hold hands. Veronica, "I... I- You're gonna just leave? What about being friends?" Panel 2: Aramis, "Oh, that. I will, of course, maintain positive feelings for you." Panel 3: "...And when you're in some serious trouble, I'll use my prodigious powers to save you. Twice, even!" Panel 4: Veronica retorts, "But that's just warmed-over acquaintances! Not Friends!"

Panel 3: Veronica turns around, "The Holler ain't as exciting as the forest, but it's still a beautiful night!" The moon rises slowly over a pastoral night scene.
