Rough sketch of the next piece I'm working on showcasing a popular festival within Ormauk; Spirit festival.

Our second entry into Encyclopedia Ormauk: The Santelmo.

Speakers are one of the many types of magic casters within Ormauk. They commune with spirits using musical instruments. This speaker uses the large conch horn as a general-use magic staff while the smaller conches around his waist are more specialized tunes to summon specific spirits!
