I started out sketching Natalie Portman as Padme and ended up with drawing Moiraine cause she’s the greatest.

“My dearest Thom, When you receive this, you will be told I am dead. One day soon, you, Mat Cauthon, and another man, may try to rescue me. If you do, it must be only you three. More or less would mean death for us all. Should you still decide to come for me, young Mat knows the way. But come soon, for the end is close, and I may yet have a role to play. 

May the Light keep you safe, and perhaps I will see you again soon. 

Moiraine”

The 6th anniversary of the release of this gem.

Still my most favourite piece of the WOT universe. Yes, the content is not much but the feeling of epicness in my first view won’t be forgotten. A perfect example how with a little budget for only one minute you can still make goosebumps. The blue cloak, the ring, the thunder and the face-reveal with saidar in the eyes. *shivers*

P.S.

This is the reason why I use “Let the Light keep you safe” as my signature despite not being mentioned in the books.

These guys are fun to design; I could fill multiple sketchbook pages with different animal combos.

Lan Mandragoran’s  “I Never Met a Girl Like You Before” moment

The Eye Of The World, Chapter 21 

“If you watch the wolf too hard, she muttered, a mouse will bite you on the ankle.” And she looked right at the tree behind which Nynaeve was hiding. “Mistress al’Meara, you may come out now, if you wish.” 

Nynaeve scrambled to her feet, hastily dusting dead leaves from her dress. Lan had spun to face the tree as soon as Moiraine’s eyes moved; his sword was in his hand before she finished speaking Nynaeve’s name. Now he sheathed it again with more force than was strictly necessary. His face was almost expressionless as ever, but Nynaeve thought there was a touch of chagrin about the set of his mouth.” 

Lan may look expressionless but right on that moment we know this song was rolling in his head. ( Edwyn Collins - I Never Met a Girl Like You Before )

wheel of time + @wolfpupy tweets

rand al'thor: life is about the journey not the destination, forget about the impact and just enjoy hurtling on fire in a downward trajectory

matrim cauthon: if you take a second to think about it, that's one second you have completely wasted

perrin aybara: if you underestimate a wolfs ability to wield a weapon just because of a lack of thumbs you will get what you deserve in the end.

egwene al'vere: things are going really well for me now that i've changed the meaning of really well to the opposite of what it means in my head.

min farshaw: looks like things are always happening once again

nynaeve al'meara: i won't do what i'm told, it involves listening to what people tell me

moiraine damodred: i did the best i could with the resources i was given, which was nothing

faile bashere: stop being so defensive i am just trying to hit you with weapons

tuon athaem al'paendrag: who would have thought that 10, 20, even 30 seconds later that the thing you said would still not matter to me, yes time is a cruel mistress

elayne trakand: i'm not going to claim that i know everything, i am simply going to act like it

asmodean: where people like you see a problem i see opportunity to create worse problems

aginor: back in the frankenstein times you could make a monster whenever you wanted, these days you have to have a license or something i guess

graendal: everyone who died and was killed on my quest to get really good hair and fashion deserved it and i dont care

ishamael/moridin: instead of spending all your time trying to make things better and failing you can cut out the middleman and just make things worse
