We find Dalken sitting on a particular rock, pondering on the fate that he has been allotted. Run from it? Fight it? Accept it? Dalken's got some tough choices ahead of him.

Dalken's thinking rock will be in Demordicai Diamonds eventually. It is an actual location but it doesn't come in until at least during or after the 2nd Story Arc.

I haven't drawn Dalken in a while and he's been complaining about Rune getting all the attention (maybe he's a little jealous) so I thought I'd quiet him down and try to draw him. But guess what? He has been horrible to work with this time around. I've had to restart about 7 times finishing with this. Technique-wise, I drew him out in pencil, inked it, and then colored it with a combination of Crayola and Prismacolors and the blender pencil. I've only used the blender pencil until now so this is my first attempt using prismacolors. Boy did they smudge but that's probably my fault being stuck for years using Crayola. So it looks like there may be a difference with how you best use Crayola and Prismacolors and I'll be practicing a bit more to figure that out.
