Description "Let me be the one you call
If you jump I'll break your fall
Lift you up and fly away with you into the night
If you need to fall apart
I can mend a broken heart
If you need to crash then crash and burn
You're not alone..."
~Savage Garden~

Thomil tucked his legs beneath him and lay down at the edge of the cliff, alone. Life had dealt him a brutal hand recently, and he felt as though he was at his end. He sighed and closed his weary eyes. His heart beat began to slow, and he felt his will give out. What more could he do? Moments passed before he felt a gently nudge against his back. Without looking, he knew she had come. She had found him, like she always had. The Wanderer had come to him. "I love you," she whispered. That was enough.

This is one of my personal favorites as well as a favorite on Elfwood. [link]

Did you draw this by hand?

It's sad depressing but hopeful all at the same time, and speaks of love lost and love gained to me.

Even though it's some cute horses.

And the quote from SG isn't bad either.

I am really jealous of your shading, and people say I'm good but then I look at someone elses work and well...But this is an amazing piece of work! Though I may have commented on the elfwood page.... Ok now I'm rambling! Great pic again! Bye!

what ever happened to haeth?

SilverFlameWanderer In reply to unicornsneverregret [2007-07-17 16:33:16 +0000 UTC]

Umm, well...he's pretty much Gone. That series of pictures with "The Story" or whatever in the title pretty much explain. Basically he betrayed The Wanderer, and she moved on. Thomil has loved her ever since he first met her, and she finally realized that it was Thomil she cared for the entire time, not Heaeth (hehe...somewhat based on real events actually).

Poor Thomil. He reminds me of our stable's resident stallion, Dusty: same long mane and proud arched neck. Dusty's smaller than Thomiul though, slightly under 15hh
