Ruins Lake is a major setting in the fantasy I've been writing. The girl is Qidana (kee-dah-nah), a royal exile forced to live in the forest. The story involves visions of dragons and clashes with pirates and encounters with troll men and werewolves and the like. It's quite the rollicking, grand adventure. Nobody realises what the ruins are until right near the end of the story, when it becomes a rather significant discovery. But I won't spoil it all by telling you what they are. Just enjoy the serenity of this emerald glade, as our Qidana is doing...

Just a terrific bit of work--your attention to detail is amazing, and that the focus is the scene rather than the person makes it all the better. There is a severe dearth of good landscapes on Elfwood. =)

Wow...it´s...it´s fascinating!! I also have to ask: Which medium is it you used? It looks great!!
