Ave Stella - Paris in Vitro

I know, I know I was supposed to wait to have 3 pics done in my "artbook to do list" before posting one but...

I really wanted to post this one, cause I'm in the exact mood for it. Just now.

Few words about this one.
As some may know, there was a great war between the Changelings and the Corruption and at the end, the six angels rised the Dôme and the young prince Liam, choosed to lock himself into the sacred forest to keep the "source" of the magic alive and maintain the Dôme that protect the city.

It's been 12 years since Paris has become a freehold now, and people still remember the young prince especially now, in december, because Liam's birthday was on the 22nd.
To keep him in the mind of the youngest changeling that haven't know this time, there is a sort great festival in the city, that last from the first of december to the 23rd.
Each day a new surprise, a new game, a new feast to remember the one that still protect them. From the first snow games to the Golden bubbles or the solstice tree... It's quite often for the children too. (I'll try to develop this in the artbook)
This festival is called "Ave Stella".

On the pic, an old character, Ethan, who was very close to Liam. Long long ago, in another lives, Liam has almost rised Ethan as his son.
Ethan is a druid that doesn't come often in Paris, but when he does, he always take a bit of time to think and dream of his old friend, near the Opera, where the Dôme takes his Source and where the gates once closed themselves on the sacred Forest.

And there is also Bubo, Ethan's guardian spirit :3

and yes, they are the same Ethan and the same Bubo than the precedent EWE pic XD

I'm always so nostalgic at this time of the year.... This wonderful time of the year. I always want to draw or write stuff about my beloved Liam at this season.
I wish to everyone some excellent Solstice times ! ^__^



Once again, Background drawn over a photo took on the roofs of the Galeries Lafayette building, just behind the Opéra Garnier.
Ethan and the Paris In Vitro chronicle belongs to me, no touchy please ^ ^
