awesome stuff
Something I find really interesting about RotE, in Assassin's Apprentice, you could read the whole book thinking that the only people Fitz killed when he was younger was Forged ones, which the book really wants you to consider Not People. And then, in Assassin's Fate, you learn that actually he had had a hand in killing many people for Chade, for a very long time. Really goes to show how much of an unreliable narrator he is, he didn't want to reconcile with the fact that he was a true assassin at such a young age, that it isn't till he's an old man that he does admit that, yes, he killed for the crown from a very young age, and that is part of the reasons that he doesn't consider himself to be lovable
I loved painting this one. It was truly a delight to create and I hope that shows ๐

I was bleeding out in the snow and it was all cool and stuff until like a bunch of teenager showed up and then It got really cringe so I put all the blood back and went to go bleed out somewhere else but all the good bleed out places were taken so I decided just to die like a natural peaceful death like look overlooking the Cliffside but lo and behold somebody's already fucking dying there against a tree and it looks way sicker than what I had planned I guess I'll just fucking live
