Description

Nymphs have magic.

Brownie's don't.

Children of nymphs and brownies...also don't.

That's...that's not good. Considering. 

Still have to find my role in the fairy's new monetized gentrified nation they're building for us nymphs. And there...aren't really that many roles for a woman without magical ability.

Or, at least, no roles that are really ambitious or new. I had a friend...Blythe. Now she had magical talent. Already summoning up wisps of fire by the time she was ten. She joined the nymph corps and now she travels the land with a group of trackers charged with catching political criminals and stopping forbidden magics. The girl gets to live a life of 

That's the deal. The way of the nymph, so to speak. Family's family. And if you and your family want to keep your land. Keep your home, that their parent's parent's settled on and then fought for in the war, you'll need the coin.

I think that was part of the reason my dad forged this.

He didn't give up on me because I couldn't use magic. And he certainly wasn't going to when I started to have to crouch to get in and out of my house. He said this hammer here was more powerful than any spell, mightier than any mage, and more capable in the right hands than the most aged tome.

I don't know if I believed him, but it is quite a piece of work. He had me forge the rest of it, since he realized it would have to be taller than he was if it was to be a capable weapon in my hands.

The builder-breaker principle, right, Simon?

Not sure what he wanted me to do with it. Being a bounty hunter might have been what he wanted me to be. Or some kind of fighter. But...well...I have a family to support. And...if I were to die out there...

But, you can't just give up. Nor can you let the circumstances keep you down. You bear up. You put you feet the fire. And you do the best you can. Regardless of what that is.

-Leona

I really don't have much to say about this.

After tackling the unpleasant implications of Lilith and Simon's relationship head on, I'm going to take a bit of a break. Especially the macro fanserive. I mean, going back so soon is just lazy and non-committal. So here's a picture of Leona and a bit of an explanation of her character. Both what she is and why she is. Sort of. A bit lazily done, yeah. But, like, I like drawing Leona.

She's got a curvy design that allows me to be a bit outrageous, and she's got room to grow. Part of the central four tiny characters. And she needs a bit of time to come into her own. 

Not much else to say. Tried a bit of shading and highlighting along with the typical coloring nonsense. Hope ya'll enjoy. Also hope people are taking to Leona.

That can be quite an unevening thing between people, being able and not able to use magic... and too bad it doesn't go down unless if you're pure.

Then gotta excell oneself in some other ways, like givin' a huge hammer and get good at usin' it X3 Granted, in Tales series by Namco they had some working arounds through a similar situation and got certain people become able to use magic as well but anyways.

And simple and charmin' piece here ^^
