Sorry, folks. I never intended to be gone for five months when I took my last break, and unfortunately I can't even promise I won't disappear again shortly; confluence of circumstances are making it difficult to get any hobby art done, but I'll do what I can, and thank you all for continuing to prod The Book of Three let me know you're patiently waiting. I can't believe the length of the comment section on the last page! This one was a fun intro back into this magic. And pro-tip: if you ever find yourself needing to draw otherworldly-looking fungi, don't waste time trying to make it up. Just google it, because you cannot out-weird nature in this department. OMG How pretty! The colors are amazing, just glowing with light. I hope you add some of the story from "Sunrise" here, LOL. Hey they changed the comment section while we were gone, looks a little more sophisticated now I've considered dropping a couple easter eggs from my fic, if I can manage it without getting too far off course. We'll see! Oh, The Book of Three made me go and listen to "The Last Unicorn Very sweet. Gigantic bioluminescent fungi!!! I love how the view angle and zig- zagging path in this one really create a sense of journey, too. What a wonderful way to dive back into this comic. Thank you! Yeah, "bioluminescent fungi" definitely help with the problem of providing light underground I've planned this one for so long it was bound to be good, but it was more satisfying than I expected.

I really like the "cavern-within-a-cavern" that the stream is flowing out of. Also: Hobby art is a hobby. Long disappearances are sometimes necessary. Take care of the important stuff first.
