Page 135: check - but only just. I apologise for the late posting hour and the hasty and less-than-stellar art (but would you believe I have recently had some equally hasty published work in my hands? That's no excuse for my own hasty stuff, but really...! *shakes head*). As it is, I'm happy I got to post at all...

I still need sleep. Which you can tell by the totally unintended innuendo in some of the stuff below :P.


***

A runaway slave boy begs Arthur to save his family from their Saxon masters. Cei doesn't trust the boy, but Arthur feels inspired. He decides to ride for Venta. And there he is going to do something everybody could have predicted. Some other people are going to try first though.




Concrit is still and always welcome :).

Great scene - and thank you for the link to the celtic sword from Rijksmuseum van Oudheden. I didn't know they could look this way.
Who are the Brothers trying to take the sword? And why don't they let their leader try first?
(And who are going to release the prisoner in the cellar?)

Well, it's difficult not to fall in innuendos while you talk about swords ;)

And I notice a particular design for Excalibur - have you invented it or is it a reference to something?

This is very dramatic.

He is getting a *lot* of entertainment value out of watching them try that^^

Ah, back to the main story. Are those twins who are trying to pull the sword out? Who are they? Arthur is awfully smug, isn't he?

I must confess, I was completely baffled by the prison scenes, though I admired them very much. Who were those people?

Sorry for all the questions! I am enjoying this story very much.
