"The scholar witnessed the fulfillment of his dream."

Today I'm reminded of this older art I painted shortly after finishing the Knight of the Thorn questline, involving one of my headcanons where Trahearne brings Malyck to a cleansed Orr

Happy 10-year anniversary to Heart of Thorns!

My little way to celebrate is showing a rough 2d animation I've been doing of Trahearne & Malyck for practice :D

I must emphasize this isn't polished! But hopefully it's a little amusing

Mordremoth won't allow Malyck's resolve to falter, or doubts to fester. Such is the considerate hand of an elder dragon sire.

A wip of these two to close out the year. :)

I was testing something with my desk setup and needed something to draw. This is apparently the result when my mind wanders.

I wish you well during your NYE's!

Painting of Trahearne and Malyck, two sylvari from Guild Wars 2. Both are humanoid plants painted in a colorful palette. Both wear vaguely sinister expressions. Malyck holds his palm ambiguously on Trahearne’s armored chest, which emits a glow in response.
