Artist's commentary
The Crimson Land of Shadows
Queen of the Land of Shadows, she excelled at both martial arts and magecraft.
Many young warriors gathered in hopes of becoming her direct disciple.
The wise and powerful Queen, strict and uncompromising, she said this to those who gathered seeking her knowledge:
"Try to overcome death with all your might.
Remember, it's do or die for almost every situation.
Don't be too gloomy about it, think on the bright side.
You will only die if you don't succeed."
