Psalm of Pendansia: King Dolselon's Fall

For a personal exercise, I decided to go back and redo one of my pieces from about six years ago, for a fantasy project which, until recently, went unnamed.

In this scene, Dycilia, princess of the Ornic Elves, bears to witness the demise of her brother King Dolselon. Among her company is her Dwarvish caretaker Gulner, the all-gazing Tulqa monk Menzus, and the gentleman thief Larcon. Amongst the bloodshed and slaughter of her clan, the most distinct figure she sees is the murderer of her brother, the wandering barbarian Ilsh.

Through such tragedy, the task of this party becomes far more grave, for the passing of the Ornic King marks the Queen-hood of Dycilia by her birthright, and by default her right to bear audience to the Court of the Alceran Dominions to unveil the motivation behind the siege of her kingdom, as well as the orchestrator of this merciless act.
