The secret is out. she can no longer hide the child growing in her womb.
Mari the vixen flees the castle for the lives of her unborn child and her own.
'I shall return' she breaths, looking over her shoulder. 'I shall come again as Mother of the new king.'

Took some inspiration from Japanese and Norse artwork for this one. I wanted to give a tapestry feel to it.
Much has changed in the story of the fleeing vixen. She is no longer a concubine but the least favorite of 3 wives.
Secondly, the setting is the eastern kingdom of Koshinko, which of course is inspired by my time in Asia.

There are more changes to her story, but that's all I shall share for now :)
