This is a collection of pictures that I’ve drawn as a sort of ‘trailer’ for my book Harahpin, to, well… tease people into wanting to read it. šĀ There’s oneĀ full-color shot for every chapter… it’s not necessarily the most central event in the chapter,Ā though… just an event. š

This dream was starting to become a part of herā¦ to become her. It was like a dark little companion linked to her spirit.
āYouāll be pretty late for your appointment with your dreamā¦ you think thereās enough time?ā
The temple that loomed before them was very old. The colorful stones were chipped and fractured, and some were missing entirely from the walls.
Apparently, other creatures had noticed this brightness as well.
āIāll tell you whatās going down,ā said Euronā¦ āour planetās whacked.ā
Standing not too far away under a tree, in a shadow cast by the setting sun, an immense silhouette lurked. Two reflective yellowish eyes looked out from its dark formā¦
āEuron,ā Eyrco breathed. She blinked several times, not sure if she was seeing things or not. āEuron, youāreā¦ youāre glowing!ā
āBefore we seal this filthy beastās fateā¦ letās tell his friends why they are here.ā
āNot to say I wouldnāt prefer a cool dip in clean waterā¦ but thatās a scarcity around here, if you couldnāt already tell.ā
He gave the sense that in the mind concealed behind those lightless eyes, he kept a thousand deadly secrets, and a thousand chilling mysteries.
Eyrco felt a very strange, yet familiar, energy between herself and the penamog…
Most terrifying of all were the eyesā¦ there were only sockets, deep, gaping, blackā¦ two holes so lifeless they would have shamed death itself.
He was looking for holesā¦ pathways into the deep darkness under the very mountains themselves.
It barely had time to turn in his direction before he was upon it, ripping, tearing, bitingā¦
His yellowy light starkly outlined the visage around the holesā¦ its features stood out against the shadows like a sharp etch in metal.
Then he noticed something that made his eyes dart about the forest around them. It was silentā¦ an unnerving silence that was filled with empty promises.
And oddly enough, the very world around them seemed softened by the song.
It was as if the moons were daring them to try.
