Black-and-white ballpoint pen illustration of a male pistrix (a sort of merfolk, but with a more alien appearance, somewhat resembling an oarfish) with a worn, ancient appearance, long hair, and the tip of his tail missing. This is the now elderly King Azoth. He wears chains on his wrists and a collar, also connected to a chain.
Black-and-white ballpoint pen illustration of a male pistrix (a sort of merfolk, but with a more alien appearance, somewhat resembling an oarfish) with a worn, ancient appearance, long hair, and the tip of his tail missing. This is the now elderly King Azoth. Several details are visible in the illustration.
The old king is chained. Long live the king?
Maybe he's immortal. Maybe he never was alive. Maybe he never was real.
But what do you feel, when his singular, luminous eye, pierces your soul?
Azoth, the Chained King. Just another illustration for the the Fish Don't Cry project.
