Shadelocke - A grimdark fairytale
The courts
The moon of Shadelocke is divided into courts that fight for control. No one knows how many courts that exist but only a handful of them are strong enough to fight for a place next to the Monarch.
The Monarch is the silent ruler of the moon and no one has heard from him for generations. In fact, no one that now lives have even seen him as he lives behind the Iron doors. Some whisper that he is a prisoner and want to set him free while others want to win his favour.
This is the tale of two courts that both have found a prophecy and how they will follow this to find their way to win the regents favour.

Led by the blood thirsty queen Sweetdream this court seek the favour of the Monarch so that he and the queen can mate. It is her belief that if they would mate she would be fertile again to feed her decadent court.
This is Jonas court and he is a lightning fast painter. As I write this he has sculpted and painted several more of these evil fae.

Court of the bramble is an unholy alliance between the noble fae and the lowly dryads. They seek to turn flesh into tree and to become one with the moon. Something only the Monarch can grant.
I’m much slower in my hobby and even if I have created a few more since this photo was taken I have still to add some paint to them.

There are some more texts to flesh them out over at my normal blog Miniaturedarkness if you care to take a look. My part of the thorn moon invitational is up there as well with a few short stories to set the tone.
