This was supposed to be a LanceWeek23 piece, the finale even - as you can see from the date of completion… fiiiive months later, it didn’t quite make it!

[Why I ever thought I was going to finish a piece with four major light sources, in three colours, and about a billion rocks, on time, is another matter entirely. No comment.]

Sometimes your protégé/ward/son falls in a big bloody hole at the arse-end of Mount Silver and you’ve got to go and fish him out and it turns into a whole thing. Then the things living in the hole become a whole other thing and really, the inconvenient fact that Dragonite don’t fit into small spaces is only the beginning of your problems!
