Double page splash from chapter 3 of “Katrie and the Tale-bearer” by me and Peter Fairfax. It shows the Xin army camp, complete with incomplete bridge spanning the river, army tents, barracks, tents of the resettlers, pen for horses, makeshift prison for the conquered, and our main characters Katrie and Xander exclaiming in horror about how the impossibility of crossing the river.
