The Purple Beast Incident - 1
for ch4rms

Phlegma the Fierce was having a bad day.

She hadn't thought much of it when dragons had attacked the village the previous morning.  When her house had exploded during the raid, she merely sighed.  Sometimes these things just happened.

When Chief Stoick the Vast had later proposed yet another search for the dragons' nest, Phlegma had admittedly felt rather vexed at the suicidal venture.  But she managed to voice her concerns calmly and rationally with the rest of the tribe.

And into the foxhole I jumped in a rush,
And peaked o'er the edge

Well he is a metalsmith. ;)

Based on something :iconcrownflame: said during some comment-banter elsewhere. Thanks for the inspiration, friend! :aww:


And no that's not Oscar. That is Ásgeirr, who is actually much cooler than Oscar, by dint of being a Viking. Woot.

Sending this with the letter. :)

So wow, I don't usually go all overboard like this on a picture.... I feel like I spent way too much time on it, but.... Part of me had just wanted to keep pushing myself to see how good I could make it.... and I am glad with how it came out. :aww:



I'm still not sure of the title.... I might change it a few times over the next.... while....
