Clay in the Kiln - chapter 3

Chapter 2

The morning mist enveloped the camp as the first sign of dawn began to paint the sky a soft blue. The sun’s rays illuminated the clouds, hanging in thick, fluffy patches in the sky, smattered with colors of pink and gold.

The first half will take place during the siege of Ba Sing Se and is Iroh-centric and will have a good amount of ocs as main characters. The second half will take place during the series (mostly from chapter 2 and onward)

I love when I have ideas for Tad and Eileen bc their scenes are either the purest sugary fluff or some good old heart wrenching stuff for later in the fic >:3

i have once again returned to a long-abandoned project (the peoples of ehl series of illustrations) and i started by deciding i really didnt like the illustration i did for the mulari so i fixed the pose and such

and then i was like "yaknow what. i dont want to finish it rn im in a sketching mood" so i decided to work on the Scale of everything and uh

going right from mulari to sirens and then to ehlves was a. Questionable decision on my part
