This is an illustration drawn for the owner of those cute little finches! It's so amazing that their chirping sounds like a cat meowing owo✨

Which one of the four elemental faeries on Shoni Island do you plan on worshipping until you have no more money or belongings?

We have SImbi, Faeris, Gaia, and Zephyr!
