[I]Excerpt[/I]
[Spoiler] She looked at him, then, her eyes unreadable through the shadows of the helmet. He felt sadness creep over him, knowing that this could very well be the last he saw of her as an ally. She had told him once that the Eliksni were a proud and noble race. Their loss of their traveler and the Whirlwind that followed had destroyed all they held dear. Now the House of Blood Kell was reclaiming the weak Light of the traveler for the Fallen race, in an effort to restore them to what they once were. And in the process, the guardians who fought for the traveler and its Light, would no doubt succumb to the darkness.
He could never ask her to choose between her own race or the guardians, so when he spoke, he removed his helmet so she could see he held no secrets. “Do what you think is best, Isildur, if this is the last time we fight together as friends it has been an honour to have known you. My bullets will never find you, but I cannot guarantee your safety.”
She examined him for a moment, contemplating his words. She wore the cloak he had given her that bore the mark of the Iron Banner, or the Wolves as they were known as. She had played a huge part in their name, even though it was Deidris who officially gave them the title. She reached under her left arm, where it had been removed those months ago.
“Nirwen is unlike other guardians.” She said, “Eliksni kill Guardian; Guardian kill Eliksni.” She, too, removed the Captain helmet, setting it down beside his. “Archon Priest humiliate, removed arm, Eliksni race reduced to Fallen barbarics. Other Guardians would kill me, Nerwin showed mercy. Loyalty lies with merciful Guardian, not traitorous House Blood Kell.”
She removed one of the feathers clipped into the strange spine-like hair on top of her head, and placed it into his hands. “Valkin will not be Kell of Kells. House Rain prophecy will one day be true, Valkin not foretold.”
Together, they turned their attention to the traveler; or what was left of it. The Captain returned her helmet to her head and walked off, her cloak billowing. If she wasn't her friend he would find her a strange sight, a Fallen Captain wearing guardian crafted cloth over her wide shoulders. A little fluttering piece of fabric tied to one of the wires of the helmet. She walked through the Last City as though she owned it. He'd worried about bringing her here, maybe the others would've believe him when he said she was an ally; but she had shown them herself, her weapons sheathed and her posture relaxed.
Others had called him merciful, we're they so far gone now that choosing not to take an innocent life was considered mercy?[/spoiler]
Edit:
[spoiler]Part 1/9, excerpt is not a grimoire card but a segment from an entire piece of work that these characters are all in. Deidris is next, master thread will be created to keep an archive when Deidris is done. Thanks for taking a look! [/spoiler]
Edit2: I sketched his face long before I started this, and forgot to add it. Here he is!
Edit3: Wasn't satisfied with the weird aura background, as I'm not good at backgrounds I decided to edit this into it. It may not be the best but it's a lot better. Thanks for checking this out again

I was confused for a minute. "This is cannon Nirwin?" Then i saw the fanfiction tag. Well damn. Thought this was official for a minute.
-
*Opens spoiler* *Has seizure* Thanks for posting, was a good read.

Edited by Cankle J: 6/12/2016 2:47:54 AMWith a name like Nirwin I thought she'd be a nerdy warlock. Seriously tho, say it out loud. Nuuurwin That artwork is rad tho. Nice work.
-
Very nice. You and my daughter would get along great. She draws Captains from memory, in class, while waiting for the rest of the class to finish the classwork. :)
-
So happy that the iron Wolves haven't been mentioned!
-
Background added to image, soooo bump.

[b]Steve:[/b] "Come see for yourself..." [b]Deej:[/b] "Wow! As Shaxx would say 'Heavy ammo inbound' or something like that. I don't play the game that much." *awkward laugh* After post: [b]Deej:[/b] "Heeeeeey Steve." [b]Steve:[/b] "Hi Deej. I know that look. Please don't tell me we're cutting off another part of Destiny 2." [b]Deej:[/b] "Sadly no, we're not cutting content right this minute... So. About that Hunter armor." [b]Steve:[/b] *sighs* "I'll make some re-colered versions for Destiny 3 just ho-" [b]Deej:[/b] No, don't do that. Scrap it all together. Some guy on the forums made something dangerously close to that." [b]Steve:[/b] "But wh-" [i]*Deej puts his pointer finger on Steve's Lips.*[/i] [b]Deej:[/b] "I don't have time to explain why I don't have time to explain." [i]*Deej runs out of the room muttering something about .004%*[/i]

Nice dude
-
I gonna scrap mine knowing it was a hunters weapon. Pathetic
-
Wish I could see the pick :Q
-
The only thing is that the iron lords were around after the traveler's arrival. They were here for the battle of twilight gap and six fronts. They were not around in the fifth and sixth centuries.
-
Great art, but from a lore standpoint, shouldn't the iron lords be Titans? Correct me if I'm wrong.
-
Art is great, but the lore needs some work.
-
If this is based on lore, it is incredible. Either way, I love it.
-
This is awesome. Very well said. I look forward to reading the rest.

Edited by Shaderz: 6/7/2016 5:27:30 PMNirwin is exactly like me. I use the Nirwins mercy, a shotgun, a sword, and love Nightstalker.
-
Nirwen is a character from an anime: confirmed.
-
This is great!
-
Epic.
