Revelstone.
"No words. There are none. Your scant human tongue is void--" Tears spread through the creases of his face, mapping his emotion.
But the First said for him, "All tongues, Giantfriend. All tongues lack such language. There is that in the granite glory of the world's heart which may not be uttered with words. All other expression must be dumb when the pure stone speaks. And here that speech has been made manifest. Ah, my heart!" Her voice rose as if she wanted to both sing and keen. But for her also no words were adequate. Softly she concluded, "The Giants of the Land were taught much by their loss of Home. I am humbled before them." --White Gold Wielder (the artwork is not the representation of this scene; its just that this dialogue encompasses everything that is Revelstone, and is one of the most emotional ones in the series for me)

I would like to share with you all my homage to Revelstone. Lord's Keep. This is a (very!) small, watermarked version of a very large artwork. The large unmarked digital file--printable at around 30 x 40 inches--is for sale at a very reasonable price if anyone is interested.

That's a damned nice depiction! I suspect you'll get a taker.

Heart and door of Earthfriends main;
Preserve the true with Power's sword,
thou ages-Keeper, mountain reign."

This is an amazing depiction for sure. I've never quite been able to truly visualize this, and you've given me something to hang on to when reading.

Not every person is going to understand you and that's okay. They have a right to their opinion and you have every right to ignore it.
