A Confession
Some time ago, I announced plans for a Torin Youth sequel, and while the story has been planned out for a while, I often lose my motivation to continue work on it. I won’t lie—I love my story and characters very deeply (as I have since I first created them over 15 years ago, but the apathy that they’ve been met with is soul crushing. The Felarya community doesn’t know my characters. They don’t care to know either. I’ve started reworking the story to remove references to Fel

Artemis the Centaur concept sketch
This is Artemis. She is the centaur that killed Dirai's husband. Artemis is arguably the main antagonist of the prequel story. I say arguably because—while she is definitely a problem—she doesn't feel like a traditional antagonist.

Dirai the Harpy
Concept sketch of Dirai the giant harpy Dirai is a giant harpy and was the wife of a Torinian human named Dominik, a lumberjack and a carpenter.

Atreus and Bia commission by MiracleRibbon
These images are by MiracleRibbon of my characters Atreus and Bia. I think there’s a coloring mistake on Atreus’s sleeve in the first image but it’s not a big deal to me.

This is when Atreus leaves his home island and Bia promises to wait as long as it takes for him to come back to he
