"Dark Alleyways" by Katie J. Anderson

"She was practised at the art of deception."

Everyone was cautious of Tam's daughter - not you understand, because Tam was a threatening dangerous man, indeed he was one of the best inn owners in the district - but because she was unpredictable. There was something about her that made almost everyone stand on edge. There were very few who could honestly trust her, a flaw on their part, had they realised that, even in those days when dark alleyways were no place to be wandering, she was one of the safest people to walk behind.

Honestly I'm not sure what this is about, I started off trying to draw a vaguely anatomically correct set of wings that joined on reasonably (ball and socket joint seemed the best idea) but I got distracted somewhere along the way and she kind of took over. She's got a habit of doing that.

The scanner has rather brutally harmed her beauty but it took so long to work in the first place I'm uploading it anyways, out of spite for the thing :)
