Miryin Skytamer and Perel Kerrow
Miryin Skytamer, felcae master of the bow and wind magic. A member of the Order of the Eclipse. She is in fact named after the Miryin from the Sheshai the Purifier story, which took place generations before Elehura. Most felcae names are gender neutral. The wind magic she uses can also be considered a form of telekinetic power. She most famously uses it to fire arrows with incredible range and accuracy.
Perel Kerrow, suyen master of water magic and another member of the Order of the Eclipse. They wield a pair of knives called the Seasingers. They are famed for their ability to move through the water as fast as the swiftest fish.
Oh, and suyen are tiny and felcae are big. For comparison, Seros on the right is six feet tall:

Kylal Palace Bath
It’s been a long time since I made an update on this location. I decided having the dragon head faucet vomit out the water was a bit much, so I added on to it to have it holding a pot where the water now flows from. The new wings also act as the levers to turn on the water and to open the drain. Some definite improvement to materials since last time I posted an update of the bath back in… 2012, wow.
The last image:
Inside the Golden Pyramid
Within the Golden Pyramid is a hollow sphere that contains a memorial to the first iteration of Sha Rephart, which failed catastrophically. At the center of this shrine is a collection of books that chronicle the progress and ultimate demise of that nation. The council lords visit this place occasionally, helping them remember the tragedy and guide their effort on making sure the current nation does not suffer a similar fate.
Golden Pyramid at Sha Rephart
Located off of the northwestern circle of Sha Rephart’s core island, the Golden Pyramid was created as a memorial to a failed predecessor to the current nation. It serves as a reminder of those that were lost, and the determination to ensure that this iteration of civilization both survives and flourishes. The structure remains the tallest in the realm, though most of the upper area is just decorative, containing empty space. Inside the triangular shell is a hollow sphere that contains a shrine to collapsed nations and other historical artifacts.
The previous render of Sha Rephart island had three golden pyramids, but as I added a lot of detail I realized just how big this structure is and reverted back to just the one. My original concept sketch of the island dating back to at least 2011 included the Golden Pyramid, though it was located on a piece of land instead of free-floating in the Voidplane.

Suyen of Sharpheart
Suyen are one of the races in Sharpheart. They are the smallest, rarely topping three feet tall, and you might tell they take some inspiration from kobolds from other media. The suyen originated as a slight variation of the gwil race, but over time they’ve been getting more unique traits to set them apart. Most recently they got skin covered head fins instead of exposed horns and an extra toe on their digitigrade feet.
On the left is Yezukh’ay, who was appeared in numerous previous entries here. On the right is an attendant of the dragon Tatyakori, who is one of the council lords of Sha Rephart.
And here’s council lord Tatyakori with two of their attendants hanging out with them. Technically the suyen on the left is Yezukh’ay playing a placeholder for a future character.
Voidleaper
Yezukh’ay Voidleaper. The latter part of their formal name is a title they earned for leaping into the void to escape their impoverished island and join the travelers aboard the grand vessel Obmunjalae. Later on, they took on void-leaping as a thrilling sport.
In the background you can also see the current concept of the Voidplane universe’s “sky”. Or skies, if you please, one above and one below.
This was a little piece of art I made for Leap Day 2024.
