This is of one of my main characters (in her human form) and her pseudo-guardian. Yes, she is the namesake of my former commenting alias (dajarin-sul), and this is the first I did in a series of six. She is the queen. Daerdinj became her guardian when he gave her refuge in his home in the Other Realm. Her life-mate Fioriaz was possessed by the evil god Kronos (my most unoriginal name, I'm sorry), and he was trying to kill her (long story). In Daerdinj's home, he cared for her and healed her physically and spiritually. Here, she holds the royal staff and the Sword of Daerdinj. The symbols down the side are the Kazachelpai (dragon language) runes spelling out her name, which is, as you can see, at the bottom. This is my dream dress...

THAT is a queen of queens. That Daerdinj is mighty scary.

12 Shelby Blair replies: "Gracias! She is based off myself, of course! You can just call me Queen Constancia at school now hehe "

I love that dress. The dragon looks pretty cool too. I love dragons. I like the colors. I'm a Christian too.

Is the dragon her pet?

25 Shelby Blair replies: "Noooo!! If anything, she's HIS pet! Err, no... not really.. heh... He protects her in the fight to restore the kingdom of the Ellisthrosi. Sorry, it gets pretty complex, so I'll just leave it at that!"
